    Hi Jgood!! I wonder if we have the same consultant lol! How did your weigh in go?? Thanks evi and soph! Getting there slowly... VERY slowly lol. (Well, not really but it feels it some days) I am feeling a lot better this weekend as my bloating and TOTM all levelled out and I lost 3lbs over...

    Bahahah FRILLED chicken too funny, definitely a typo lol. Does sound sodding delicious though! I am so with you on the SS+ thing, it does feel easier. Although I am glad I did just ss the first week because in short, I can't be trusted with food! It was much easier the first week eating just...

    Nice day today, kept myself busy with work and didn't mess it up too much. Had some frilled chicken, but it was a tiny amount (60g!) so don't feel too bad about it. I think I need to decide to either do ss+ fully and accept the food or just stick to ss without the little nibbles of protein now...

    I just bought the most gorgeous vintage looking bike, with a big wicker basket on the front! I don't drive and the thought of doing so makes me feel queasy, far too much stress! So I bit the bullet and bought the bike! I thought, an extra bit of exercise can't hurt either. I needed to...

    Aw I hope you get them Auburn! It took me a while to get over the mental side of how I will look with them, but it's something I'm prepared to deal with. In other news... Having an AWFUL day with the diet. I haven't really cheated, not yet anyway. I have been on ss+ for about 10 days, for...

    Hello ladies! So sorry for the late reply! 3lbs down but TOTM so I'm OK with that I think. I would have liked a 1lb or two more, but wouldn't we all! Also with this heat I was grateful for any loss, I have been so bloated and puffed up! Add to that my sunburn and ginger hair and I look a right...

    Hi Sophie! I think I will get a mint choc one to try hot as I really would love something warm and chocolatey in the evening, I miss being able to indulge lol. Wasn't it heavenly to eat something other than a cwp packet meal?! I was so ridiculously excited ha! I am having an ss+ meal every...

    Day 26! So I decided to go onto ss+ as I was struggling to get 3 packs down (they just become so boring!) and my CDC was great about it and gave me lots of tips. My lord does it feel good to eat veggies! I really missed salads and fresh veg so it's been a god send. I will admit that the first...

    Here are a few I have tried and think are really lovely! I adore cooking so this has been a cathartic distraction from the weight-loss treadmill :) I was also vegan for quite a while so I am used to getting creative with veg! Indian balti-style spiced mince with "rice" 40g of cauliflower...

    Aw lovely to read your progress so far, thanks for sharing! It does get SO much easier when keto finally shows up. I thought I was dying, I could have literally just cried through day 3 and 4. But I woke up on day 5 feeling so full of energy and it hasn't stopped since really! What I do find is...

    Love this thread, you ladies are totally right about having to be selfish! Something just cracked inside me and I thought, I'm not doing this to myself any more.

    Day 39 onwards

    Hi Danders! So glad you have found a plan that works for you! I was considering doing 4 shakes myself, but think I would prefer the small evening meal, so will be asking my CDC about it when I go to weigh in this afternoon. You've done really well to get this far, be sure to keep us updated!! xx

    Hello everyone! So sorry I haven't been writing this week, I have been rushed off my feet with work! This week has been tough but I have stayed strong and not cheated. But I have been starving... Let me explain! I have not been physically hungry at all, not one day of the diet. But emotionally...

    The results are in, 5lbs lost this week! Very happy indeed. I hear there can be a slow down in week three but I hope not, I am on a roll to losing my rolls! Health wise I feel fab, sleeping better and not at all hungry. I get the odd craving but nothing near bad enough to make me want to cheat...

    Aw thanks so much Evi! Day 9! Yesterday I went to the cinema to watch Maleficent, it was fab!

    Day 6! I can hardly wait for my weigh in tomorrow, it's been up and down but over all I am feeling good and really proud that I have gone 100% for this first week. It's always the first week you dread on a diet isn't it? So I am confident I can see it through for the full 12 weeks. :)

    Feeling much better today, day 5! I think the key to getting in ketosis is realising that your body is going to feel utterly shocking for the first 3-5 days. I wasn't prepared for that so it took me unawares. OK to some degree I knew you could have headaches and be a bit tired but I thought...

    Also... TMI, men folk might want to look away... Ladies, is your cycle disrupted? I usually have 4 days of bleeding with a medium flow but now I'm on day 7 of bleeding but it's lighter. I read in the forum someone mentioning that being in ketosis does something to oestrogens and proteins...
