Wahey I hear you all say.

I have phoned and left a message on the CDC answering machine and fingers crossed she will phone me back today :S

I have since new year lost 5lb then put 3lb back on...... gggrrrrrrr. I think I am more nervous about her calling me back now than I was calling her..... urrrrrmmmmm

So here's to a slim me by summer if she calls me back....

I have never worn a bikini in my life (even when I was a size 8) a tankini maybe.... I might splash out when I lost my first stone on that one item I want to fit into.....

[Bunnyg]

Well done, you have taken the first and probably biggest step! Welcome to the journey! Let us know how you get on!

Guess what after getting myself up to calling yesterday, I sent an email later on in the evening and boohoo she is on holiday till the 19th Feb.....

[lisaloooo]

Oh no how gutting I hate waiting for stuff when I have decided to do it.

Is there any other CDC local you could go to even if its just until she gets back?

[Mini]

Well you can weigh yourself now and take some photos and measurements and begin by cutting down slowly on the carbs and increasing your intake of water and when she comes back and you start your diet you will slip nicely into ketosis without hopefully no withdrawal and it will make the diet that much easier to get into.

Didn't think of it like that..... I think I will do that....

Do you think I should have black tea/coffee now too...??

Well, gradually cut down on the high carbs and reduce your portion size a little bit each day and that way you won't feel you are depriving yourself all in one go.

If you like back tea and coffee go for it...

But do your measurements and weigh yourself because you could be pleasantly surprised.

I have started CD both ways...and cutting down and increasing the water does make a whole lot of difference to how quickly you get into ketosis.

I went cold turkey this time after Christmas and it really took the three weeks to feel in the zone.

Grand now that I am here...it was just getting here that seemed that bit harder.
