its 8am and i am at work. got up early and had a litre of water and the leek and pot soup (URRGHHHHHHH). am totally struggling to down the soups and always end up leaving some in theb ottom. Next week I am gonna try the porrige and the cold shakes as I cannot take any more soup. will have to find a way to get through this week though as I have loads left!
My CDC said I can have bars next week but some of the posts here have scared me and i am worried that i won't lose weight??
on a good note, i did wake up more alert (still headachey) and glad day 3 is over. by far one of the worst days of my life. I was cold, emotional, weak, weepy, hungry. woke up this morning and it looks like i am finally losing weight too. didn't expect this as have not finished one of my packs yet. i am really hoping i find my mix of packs that i am ok with as I love the diet in the sense that i am not hungry and want to lose weight. i just did not anticipate not being able to down the packs. that never even occured to me, and if anything makes me fail it is going to be the taste of the packs. I have decided today to add more water to the soups to stop them tasting so strong. this might help.
also, after my disaster yesterday at work i have decided not to have a pack at work as i have no blender and really do not want tyo take one in and draw attention to myself! so i have a pack in the morning and then one at 5pm after work and then one at 8 before bed. Does anyone have the bars? I so want them but am worried that they will make me hold on to weight.
Another good note is that my trips to the loo are not as frequent and i thought the water drinking would be the hardest thing but its the easiest (at the moment I can't have a pack without half al itre of water on the side!).
Wish me luck for today as yesterday was so bad that i was on the very verge of quitting and i am SO glad i came on here and got loads of support. I am also going to email my CDC and tell her I am struggling with the soups (she has already changed some of them once so I don't expect her to do so again!).
please send any words of encouragement my way as i REALLY need them!
thanks to all
