The Dreaded Saturday!

I don't know what it is about a Saturday that makes every item of goodness (badness) linger in my little head! Weekdays everything's fine and dandy and as soon as Saturday ticks over I'm planning when to have my bar and when I'll most enjoy it...for me..somewhere between Britains Got Talent and The voice haha! Sit back and relax and pretend its a little treat lol have even resorted to putting my coke zero in a wine glass..have clearly let too many bubbles go to my head:) but it's just the little things that change it up abit! My mums friend is on Cambridge diet and she drinks her shakes quicker than she makes them lol I just wonder if its me who takes forever to finish it, I literally savour every last drop :) you've got to make the most out of what u get lol! So, shake this morning then all I can say is roll on BGT;) hope u all have an EX-alANTE day..ok ok bad I know, I'm goin!:) x
 
Lol... I feel ur pain, this is my first Saturday on exante and its normally my treat day & night, wine takeaway etc. but like you I'm going to have my coke zero & bar tonight. Iam going to make a stir fry tho as I need a meal here and there! Good luck! Xxx

it's such a weird logic I don't really understand why I feel that haha I think it's the thought of everyone being off work and out for dinners and drinks lol jealousy if u will haha! and the Saturday night tv confirms..'It is Saturday night and you are 'eating' shake with a spoon and sipping on coke (minus the usual spirit)' haha!
ive done a shake diet before and did last Saturday, but had a little wobble so in theory this is my first Saturday too! So we can battle it together! Water water water to keep up full! The more U drink..the more u shrink apparently lol :) good luck:D xx
 
Stick it out! I don't know why but I've just sat and tortured myself by looking up loads of recipes and now I'm starving!!! Lol
 
I'm struggling today is my first Saturday on this diet and usually it's treat night :( the weight loss makes to worth it tho! Coke zero will see me through tonight hopefully!
 
I had been planning to start last Monday but didn't start until Wednesday because of a horrible stomach bug. Caved big time yesterday when my boss took us out for lunch. Refused to give myself a hard time since I had been sick and its also TOTM but didn't want to use it as an excuse to blow the whole weekend so today is day 1. Never started a diet on a Saturday in my life and its torture! Hope ketosis kicks back in quickly lol. Luckily my hubby is being sympathetic and had a microwave curry (which I hate) and didn't buy his usual Saturday night treats. Now on my 2nd pint of zero trying to convince myself I'm not hungry and am quite happy not to have any treats :)
 
My first Saturday and just watched my wife (size6-8 :( ) have a stirfry and fried rice. Divorce was contemplated lol
 
I do that too!! For some odd reason when ever I'm on this diet I get addicted to food programmes?! It is torturing urself but I do it regardless, Come Dine With Me, Secret Eaters..anything involving food haha!!
Yes Tawsey keep sipping at the coke zero! I sometimes (quite sad to admit haha) set myself a target for example drink half a litre of water and then have a glass of coke zero/Dr pepper zero etc, so I'm still upping my water but get a nice little treat too:) I'm not sure why Saturday does this to my brain, but I just tell myself it's just an ordinary day, same as the one before so keep going haha!
Wow well done! Starting on a Saturday! That is determination! Thats fab that you've done that, sometimes I guess you jus have to grab the bull by the horns so to speak! just think keep going and by the time Monday rocks up you could possibly be or nearly be in Ketosis :)
So lets all stick to our shakes! We have to suck it up so one day we won't have to suck it in hehe xxx
 
Ha ha love it Dolkapot!
 
So, in bed Saturday night is done and dusted!:) hope u all got on ok! I'm going away tomorrow and won't be back until the 28th and as my weigh days are on a Monday that means i shall miss two weigh ins..so I am going to try and hold off for the 3rd to weigh myself! Hopefully see that little ticker moving down!! Fingers crossed!! On and downwards haha! Goodnight!
 
Well done guys, I too struggled last night. We stopped by a superstore on our way home and treats were piled high in front of my starving (esp on a Saturday) eyes! Esp posh crisps, which are my absolute fav (unfortunately I can eat a whole big bag by myself!) It was soooo hard, but hubby & kids declined anything in support for me (bless them) so we all got coke zeros (much delving in the chiller, we found bottles with our names on!) and I made it out the store unscathed! Our daughter then cooked a curry for dinner, which I don't really like, and baked me half a chicken breast covered in season-all - that was my Saturday night treat and I savoured every tiny morsel! Just realised how lucky I am. Couldn't have done it without my family :)
 
Aww that sounds like a brilliant wee night in!!

There is not hope of me ever finding my name on the coke bottles lol
 
I haven't found mine either! And I don't have the most unusual name in the world :)
 
Support from the other half is more than half the battle Kerry. If mine had done a normal Saturday of takeaway and icecream or chocolate I would have been climbing the walls but he stuck to microwave curry that I can't stand (the smell of it cooking actually helped me!) and coke zero. As a thank you I hired him a ps3 game for the weekend so both happy :)
 
Well my first weekend on exante almost over and it wasn't too bad without the wine and takeaway nice to wake up on a Sunday without a fuzzy head.... 1st official weigh in and I've lost 9lbs!!! Magic diet this is, after a few shaky days feeling almost dying with hunger lol it's all been worth while!! Hoorah!!!!
Keep up the hard work everyone..... We need to spur each other on! Xxxx
