Thread: 56 pounds to shift. Emma's online diary

So, tomorrow I start my journey towards the new me!

I'm female, 20 years of age and am currently 14st 11lb. I have never been this big in my life and find it difficult to do anything that my friends do because of my size. I am lucky to have the support of my boyfriend though all of this and am confident that I can do well. But tomorrow is my first day so who knows what will happen lol? I'm hoping ill go straight into it without any fuss and just sail along lol.

Will I be hungry? Will I be complacent? Only time will tell.

I found the change hard to start with, but by the end of week one once I had been weighed I was soooo happy.
I had a planned day off for my 30th and I put on, but other than that Cambridge does work when you get your head round it.
are you on sole source or?

Yeah. On Sole Source
Well, I will be as of tomorrow lol

Any tips?

Day 1 -

From reading a few diaries yesterday to get some tips I'm deciding to hold off on my porridge for a bit. At least until half 10. Ill just try to drink 2 pints of water before I go out to get my nephew hoping that iv been loo enough times to last while I'm out lol.

Breakfast - apple and cinnamon porridge + 2 pints of water (hopefully - I'm gonna struggle with the drinking)

Good luck sugar x x hold on in there

Apple and cinnamon porridge

Flavor is nice. Texture is a bit weird but I suppose ill get used to it. Also, 2 pints of water down!

Thank you I'm motivated enough to stick to it. Tonight will be the ultimate challenge for my first day - cinema and McDonald's with the boyfriend. Well, McDonald's for him, banana shake for me lol x

1:30 and so far so good. Only had my porridge and as much water as I can stomach. Trying to last out until about 4 for my shake so that I can have my soup when my boyfriend has his dinner. And then after that, I'll be through with day one.

I've had a head ache all this morning but I know it's too soon to be anything to do with the diet lol so I must push on through! Only 17 days until I go off to Cyprus and am praying to lose almost a stone by then. Should be doable.
