Hi Tillyfloss

I just posted this in our original thread - we must have posted at exactly the same time!! I have pasted a copy below:

Ok - why doesn't everyone post what they are aiming to loose in a month and week by week post your loss and we can all see how each other is getting on?

I am Madameruthybaby and by 5th October I would like to loose 20lbs (please ignore my ticker - it is incorrect at the moment as I have put on so much weight!!).

I am getting weighed on Wednesday so I will post my loss for this week then.

tillyfloss · 5th September, 2008

madameruthybaby · 5th September, 2008

And we have the same aim of 20lb - ha ha ha!

Well fingers crossed we can both do it - when is your weigh in day?

Nibbles · 5th September, 2008

tillyfloss · 5th September, 2008

My Weigh day would have been Wednesday next week but my CDC is away till Friday so have an extra couple of days to wait

Baby Jane · 5th September, 2008

Hi all,started CD last sunday.Would like to lose 25 Lbs by Oct 5th. 1st weigh in Sep 7th, wish me luck!

LellyCD · 5th September, 2008

Hi All, i'm Lelly and i'm new to CD I started this week, i'm on Day 4, i think days 2 & 3 were the absolute hardest ever kept getting dizzy and was freezing cold all the time

. Luckily, I have felt much better today though only a little dizzy when i get up too quickly but not cold so far today. i'd like to join in the challenge too, not sure how much I might lose as i've not done this before so i'll go for 10lb which would be great and then if it's any more that would be a mega bonus!!

My first weigh-in has had to be scheduled for Day 4, on Sunday the 7th September, so may not have much of a loss then.
Not sure how much i should hope to lose during my first week. What is realistic??

Have not nibbled anything so far. Have been very good for 2 days

.

cissie · 5th September, 2008

Hi count me in please!!

I am on day 4 today and would like to like to aim for 7lb this week. Any more would be great. My weigh in is Monday the 8th at 8.00pm counting down the days now!!

smurf · 5th September, 2008

Will b slim · 5th September, 2008

Started my cd on Wed at 16 . 6 and would love to lose 5 stone!

Go on holiday on 10th October and it would be great to have lost 21 lbs then

Will b slim · 5th September, 2008

Have felt ok for the first 3 days, wandering how do you know when the ketotis is kicking in?? Some people only seems to kick in on day 4 or later

tillyfloss · 5th September, 2008

Hi WillB Slim, You can pick Ketostix up from your cdc, and test for ketones in your wee My cdc had run out but I got some from boots today. You can also tell by some physical signs although they will vary from person to person.
These are : odd or metallic taste in the mouth
Bad Breath
Loss of hunger pangs
Feeling of well being

There might be others?

Think the length of time it takes for ketosis to kick in is dependent on your glycogen stores, I was in Ketosis on day 2 but I don't eat a lot of carbs in my diet normally. I think the average might be about three days <i think it says that in the book somewhere>

LellyCD · 6th September, 2008

Day 5 for me now and oam going to the gym this morning, bit worried i might fall over if try too hard, any tips anyone?
