Cool, will deffo try and load up before i go so that i wont be able to stomach eating anymore anyway. I meant she doesnt have tetras, so i just have soups and shakes and we will have to stay there for quite some time so not sure how to have my meal without drawing too much attention to myself...

Snap! Have just posted a thread asking the same thing! Have avoided going anywhere this week but the time has come when i cant avoid it any longer. How on earth do you guys do CD SS and not be antisocial?

So i avoided going anywhere the last weekend, as i just find it so awkward to go into the whole .. "im on a diet so i cant eat or drink anything!" As people (my friends and fam anyway) still try and give you stuff to eat or drink and get really offended if you dont have anything. But we've been...

I also aim to drink 3-4L of water a day. Only got through 1 week so not sure about how this affects weight loss, but im am going to try and stick to this throughout.

Super! Well done! Had a hunger moment yesterday and also considered going up to SS+ - go with whatever u think will help u stay on track. A x

That makes sense, i am drinking nearly 4L of water a day so i suppose my urine must be quite dilute. Really hope i am in ketosis by now - was feeling ok so far until yesterday when I just felt exhausted and hungry all day - i have been on SS 100% and not cheated (cant quite believe it), so...

Wowee indeedy! Thats awesome well done!

Well done 2lbs is still 2lbs gone forever! I have started to take body measurements as well as weight results, as im sure my weight loss will slow down, but if the inches are going then its all good! Good luck for next week.

Congrats! What brilliant results after just 1 week! Keep that in mind to keep you on track for 100% next week too A x

Typical - on the 4th day of SS i was on TOTM so was only finally able to test for ketones yesterday (9th day) with Ketostix, and the result said trace (5mg/dL). Is this level normal? For some reason i thought it would be more. So does this mean im only in slight ketosis after 9 days?! Thanks...

Yippee! Held off weighing myself until at least 7 days had passed and ive lost 7lbs - im over the moon! Im sure the rate will slow down now but im so glad ive lost something as i couldnt feel much of a difference clothes wise during the week, so i was so sure i hadnt lost anything, but...

Dear EternalFlame and CurlyWurly, Thanks for all your fab advice. Yep thankfully i started CD at the time of year when its not so difficult to drink water anyway so will try and drink more. I have pre-warned everyone at work so hopefully they will understand when i keep popping to the loo...

Got through my first day on CD - whoop whoop! You are totally right - its a fab diet and can so see myself sticking to it and not giving in after 4 days! Thanks for the support guys! Quick question about water - I just about managed 4 pints yesterday. Is this to replace the water you would...

Brill! Thanks for all the useful suggestions guys. Have brought in a soup for lunch today so will try EternalFlames suggestion of a little water, mix and so on, and hopefully it will be just as how it came out last night in the blender - i was pleasantly suprised! Chelsea Lou - lol I have done...

Wow FBS! I think its great that you can cope with the smell of fish and chips and not crave it! Am dreading dinner tonight as the rest of the fam will be eating normal food. But I think Sunshine Singers attitude is the way forward - I suppose by surrounding yourself with these sights/smells...

Thanks for all the advice - hmm ... sounds like I may need to switch to soups for lunch - far more practical. So can you have tetras at the beginning of SS? Is it the same as making up a shake? My CDC didnt offer this option so I assumed I wasnt able to have it yet. Also can you swap around...

Sorry me again, should really put up a disclaimer saying sorry there will probably be a million questions from me this week! Just wanted to ask how you all get on preparing your meals at work? I got through breakfast (Porridge) relatively easily, microwaved, done. But with the soups and...

Hiya! Im on day 1 too! Thought the ticker tape thing would be a great idea to keeping me motivated - cant wait to hopefully move it along in a few days time!

Oh wow ladies, thank you so much for the inspirational boosts! Great advice - i think i will deffo take some pictures, and make sure I drink loads of water. Just been having a quick look at all of your weight loss successes in your signatures - they really are motivational so well done on...

Hey all, Just started yesterday - am posting today as im sure the depression will kick in by tomorrow! As so many of you have mentioned, i too cannot believe how much my life revolves around food! Ive just started the diet this morning and im already at a diet support forum! What am i like...

Hi guys, Have just started SS today in an attempt to fit back into 90% of the clothes in my wardrobe (yes i do live in hope that I will wear them again!) Thought i would post now whilst im still feeling positive (even after the grim Porridge for breakfast!) Would be really great to hear...
