Hi again...
Yep I'll be weighing on on Thurs am but only on my scales as my CDC lives a good 25 miles from me so I'll just be weighing with her when I'm that way visiting my ma, hence the 2 starting weights.
As for the diet, so far so good.... Saturday was complete hell, had to go grocery shopping and oh the smells in Tescos.... and why is it all those goodies are always on offer!!!!? Felt really drained for the 1st 3 days, more awake but physically drained but luckily it had vanished when I woke yesterday morning.... I was dreading waking feeling like that Monday as I take my little boy to a waterbabies group which involves lots of throwing them about and swimming and I think I would have passed out if I'd felt like I did the day before. As for Ketosis.... not sure whether that has kicked in or not.... the scales are dropping (I am a scale hopper) and I have more energy but I'm still really hungry, it doesn't seem such a bad hunger as before but I think I may have just got used to it. I probably doesn't help that I'm now only having my 1st shake of the day, I'm a evening picker so I try and leave to till post 7pm, daft I know but I'm certain I'd go off the rails if it got to 10pm and I had nothing to have, I can survive in the morning whilst my little un (Leon by the way) is about to keep me occupied. Is ketosis meant to erradicate hunger completely or just make your shakes more satisfying? Is your 1st week going smoothly? I'm very proud to say I've had no hiccups apart from a tiny drop of skimmed milk in 1 cup of coffee, I really couldn't drink it black!!
Have you tried baking any yet, I have tried a couple of the so called muffins... really strange taste, not sure if its the shake powder or the sweetners, 1st time I tried it with 2 then 2nd 1 with 1... both had this odd taste even though they were different flavours, think I may try 1 without sweetners and see, it the only way I suppose. As for the result, apart from the odd taste, it was by no ways a tescos choc muffin fresh from the bakery but it did have texture and it did need chewing which was much needed for me, I felt as if I was being naughty by eating but i wasn't.....!!
Anyway... enough drivel from me for now... I better try and get some work done or I'll get the sack!!
