Thread: Sarah's 2013 Diary

1st Jan 2013:-


Day 1 for me today - I'm using up old shakes until my appointment with my CDC on the weekend. So no official weigh in until my first appointment (however I think I've got around 2 stone to lose)

I am determine to get to goal in the next 8 (ish) weeks - I don't want to spend all year battling with my weight... I want to enjoy this year by going out and wearing nice clothes... I am also going to make sure that going to the gym is just a part of my weekly routine.

I'm home today and only had 1 shake so far..... Also not enough water (always struggle with water at home)

Back in work tomorrow and planning on gym before work (I aim to do this 3 times a week) and also I'm going to start classes with the girls from work.

Quick cheer for you, saw you'd moved over here. Good pick with it hun you'll do grand

Once you get into ketosis its plain sailing Xx

Thanks hun x

This is for you Mel....

I am going to weigh at the gym in the morning so I have an idea of my starting point.


Just took my starting measurements:-

R Arm - 12.5"
L Arm - 12.5"
R Leg - 24"
L Leg - 24"
Around belly button - 40"
Under bust - 35"
Around bust - 39"
Bum - 42"

Hello! We have a similar amount of weight to lose! I started yesterday, but today is the first day at 100%. how are you finding it? I tried it a few months ago but had to stop due to financing. really hoping it works as quick as people say!! xx

It does really work... I done CD originally in 2009 and went from 12st 12 to 9st 2lb (but have let it slip this past year lol)

Well done on 100% day - here's to another tomorrow!

that's amazing! how long did it take you to achieve that? xx

Hi Sarah,

Stunning ring. I love it!

I started today -- I have at least two stone to lose. I will weigh tomorrow -- as I weighed on the 2nd in 2012. I'm hoping I the same or less than I did on that date, but I doubt it. Fingers crossed.

do you just weigh in once a month do you? good luck! xx

Good luck Sarah, persevere!

Day 2 - Just a quick update - gym done

WI 11st 5lb (quite a bit higher than I was expecting)

Yay you! Sticking to it and gym session. Some of that will be the carb bloat and water -- you should see a big loss this first week. Back in the 10s soon, I'm sure.

I picked up some Atkins bars to get me through until I see my CDC... They are on sale in tesco - love the coconut ones!

So far today I've had 1 shake and Atkins bar - will have last shake when I get home (and might have a cup of tea).

Good tip. But I can't eat the Atkins --they give me bad wind (actual stomach camps). TMI -- I think they have a lot of malitose.
