So glad your feeling better, was just thinking about getting my knitting out....would keep my hands busy in the evenings!! I made the fatal mistake of not doing my diary yesterday....and had a terrible day. Well back on again, and straight to reading all the positive diaries in the hopes it...

Well rather ashamed to say, after reading how well everyone else is doing....I weakened yesterday, not terribly, had a two egg omlette with mushrooms and a couple of hotdog sausages chopped up in there. I just couldn't stop feeling hungry, I had drunk so much water and was in and out of the loo...

Hi, how's it going today? I'm still not sure if I'm in ketosis, still feel hungry just not all the time!!....I was going to be like you and just weigh in once a week in Tesco as my scales don't work...but found a pair in my daughter room....and took a sneaky peek....very old and probably...

Hi, how you getting on today....must admit I'm still hungry, maybe I'm just one of those people that will? Had a sneak on a very old..and probably very inaccurate scales and it's saying an 8lb loss in 4 days....so that must mean some loss surely....proper weigh in at Tesco's on Friday, don't...

You two are doing so well, I am a couple of days behind you so it's nict to sneak a peek at how your doing, writing a diary really helps doesn't it..at least it keeps your hands busy!! What do you think of the Exante bars and shake's? Ordering a mixed bumper pack as at the moment I'm on CD...

Managed to stay 100% yesterday...and clinging in there today. Not sure if I'm in ketosis yet, strange taste in mouth is not terrible...could just be the strange chemical shakes and black coffee. I am still getting waves of hunger but other times feel fine. Really can't tell as I've never done...

Well what an odd day..my head has been all over the place....some real feelings of euporia and some moments of....please let me eat now!!!..also have a kind of odd tast in my mouth..it's not strong but it's a bit like when you have a cold and you get that thick feeling in your mouth like you...

How's it going? did you manage the party with out cake? I'm glad mine are all grown up...although there have been some moans about cooking for themselves!!!! I just don't think I could at the moment...day three and am hoping ketosis kicks in soon..getting used to the odd empty feeling...

Here I am..day three..and all alone in the hopefully not so big soon house!!! Everyone is at work....the dog's are nagging for walkies but I feel like Bambi on ice....could probably manage to walk the old boy Beau (17 yr old Border Collie)as he and I are probably about as agile as each...

Well done...a whole stone gone....never to return, Zumba sounds fun, hoping Santa brings us a Wii this crimbo...really think it might help but going back to the gym next week...hoping I won't feel so much like Bambi on ice by then...day three and still a bit wobbly!! well done you. Clare xxx

Don't get married then you won't get divorced....and won't put on the weight.....although what is that joke about divorcing and loosing 12st of unwanted fat...it's called the husband!!!.....all a bit synical though....I'm sure just as many of us put on weight when we first meet 'the one' because...

Well, still here but struggling. Woke at 5.30....probably because I went to sleep at 9.00 last night to overcome the evening munchies. Felt o.k...not too hungry. Had a cuppa but weakened and had a splash of skimmed milk in it....is that terrible? Had a shake at 8.30....my stomach was rowing with...

Thank you for your advice, it's much appreciated, I think I might check out the chemist to see how expensive lipotrim would be for the week.....if it's too much I'll resign myself to a proper weeks preperation, maybe tesco ultra slim for two meals and a carb free low cal meal in the...
