    Want to cry!!

    I'm on day 5 and tested this morning.....no sign of ketosis yet! I have followed the plan 100% with 4 CWP products and 200ml skimmed milk for my tea. I'm feeling genuinely horrible today. So cold, weak, shaky and absolutely ravenous. It's taking everything I have not to raid the cupboards to eat something. I feel so drained of energy and my stomach feels like its digesting itself I'm so hungry!! I keep snapping at my OH, which isn't fair but I can't help it
    Can anyone offer any suggestions as I'm at my wits end!!!

    I was exactly the same when I started 8 weeks ago, my 1st 6days were hell, I was on 3 shakes a day and my 200cal meal, but honestly once you get past ur 1st week it will become just everyday life for you, it does sound like u haven't hot ketosis yet, which I'm sure u will soon, remember to drink, drink drink! It's the main thing!!! Good luck, hope u feel better soon x

    Keep going, you will get into ketosis and things will become easier. Don't get hung up on ketostix sometimes they do not give reliable results. You are on Day 5 so it really can't be much longer, please don't undo all of your good work.

    Want to cry!!

    Hanging on by my fingernails....! Took my mind off things by treating myself to some nail polish (can't eat with wet nails) and a new handbag from Next (can't have too many handbags!)
    Had a nice warming cup of tea and now chilling out on the sofa with one of my dogs!!
    I won't give in....determined!

    Everyone is different in terms of getting into ketosis as many factors can effect it for example, how much carbs you had before starting the diet, if you have more carbs to "burn off" - it may take slightly longer to dip into ketosis. I have been anything from 5days to 8days to get into ketosis and even then it isnt until the second or third week that I start to feel "normal" and not drained of energy, having to use all your strength not to eat etc.

    Keep at it, drink water, have your products and ketosis will come! Promise!
    In August 2014, my fiance and I will be climbing Kilimanjaro in memory of Charlie Harris-Beard to raise money for The Anthony Nolan Trust: The UKs Blood Cancer Charity. For more information or to sponsor us please visit our Justgiving page:

    Don't get disheartened, it takes different amounts of time for different people to get into Ketosis.I never go by those damn ketostix, I go by when I suddenly get a burst of energy which is usually day 5 or 6...Good Idea on the nail varnish, last time I did this diet, my house got a few good 'spring cleans' lol, anything to distract myself from food.
    Mini Goals
    1. Lose 1/2 stone
    2. Lose 1 Stone
    3. Lose 1.5 Stone
    4. Lose 2 Stone
    5. Exercise 45 mins daily
    6. Look good for my sisters wedding


    Week 1 - SS - 8lbs
    Week 2 - SS - 2lbs
    Week 3 - SS -

    Hi Chixie,
    I hope you feel better. Im on day 11 of sole source and you do get throught the wall of 'hell' if youve not already done so. I can honestly say for the last 3-4 days i am not hungry at all, i have to sometimes force the shakes down and im feeling really energetic. I can remember my hell was the first 4 days i felt weak, shaky and not myself? I woke up on day 5 feeling great and not starving and have been ok since. I only lost 5 pound on my first weigh in which i was disappointed at as i had stook to it 100% but im still going. Hope you managed to break the wall of hell and come through the other side!!!! x

    Want to cry!!

    Weighed in today and have lost 10lbs!!!!! *screams*. That makes a total of 17lbs in 4 weeks!! Have also lost 11.5 inches so the euphoria of this achievement outweighs the hell that I have been through! The first 10 days were strictly 100%, losing 9lbs in the first week. Went off plan for a short break away but always intended to get back on it when I got back, only gaining 2lbs and now this humongous loss this week!! Whoop whoop! I'm one happy lady!!
