    I don't get it I stick to it 100% (like I have done from the start) and just a mini 1.5lb loss this week and because I weigh daily I know that came off last Monday!

    Brilliant loss am so happy for you. Stay strong and focussed for your second week. Getting closer to the next stone bracket and soon you will smash through it. Hmm wondering what last pack to go and have now! Don't think I have ever had a hot shake!

    Sasha23- Is there anyway you can have a pack at lunchtime instead of the hotel buffet, that certainly sounds calorific even if it is jut chicken/fish/salad I reckon the portion sizes are far too much and especially with cheese and dressing. Is it possible to try a week of just 4 packs a day...

    I have a variety of packs. Favourite meal packs are cottage pie, spaghetti bolognaise, chilli, pasta carbonara, mushroom pasta mainly. Bars I only have few a week and like the dark Truffa one not so keen on the mint or orange. Shake wise I like the banana which is about the only fruit one I...

    Sasha23 - It certainly does count and I have recorded it. You have lost half a stone and only 3lbs left to go for your challenge. Remember everyone loses weight at different rates. Are you drinking lots of water? Are you having your 4 or 3 packs and a meal everyday? Have you had any cheats? Keep...

    Hi!

    I like most of the packs really. Top hot meals are probably Mushroom Pasta, chilli, spaghetti, curry...yes most of them I guess. Bars I like to keep them in the freezer and then they are harder to eat so last longer, not keen on the honey bar. Shakes I blend with lots and lots of ice. I like the...

    Gosh Tilley what a worry, am too new to all this to know what is best to advice. I have no idea what supplements knock you out of ketosis (am having concerns that the linseed that I have started taking will) Please take care of yourself and report back in so we know that you are okay xx

    Gosh thank you all so much for taking the time to reply to me am very touched. I am not going to give up because I know I need this total absence from food to lose the weight.

    The thing is I am in pain and terribly bloated. I just don't want it to get like it did in the first few weeks and I didn't go for 12 days I was in agony and it was such a painful experience.

    Thank you, sorry I feel I have gate crashed your diary thread with my updates! The water bottle is not leaving my side all day. So do you average about 2 litres of water a day plus hot drinks on top of that? Have had 1 litre of water so far today and is only 11am! It made me think of you...

    Well have just done the dreaded weigh in on Saturday morning and is just 2lb off, I know 2lb off is better than a gain but still I am disappointed. When you are totally committed and sticking to it 100% and putting your body through such an extreme diet I was just hoping for a bigger loss. I...

    Glad it is not just me that does this then! Less than 24 hours to go until my weigh in and I don't think I will have a good loss this week, I will try and not get too upset about it and it will at least be a loss. One thing I have found since starting this diet is that I feed everyone else...

    That sounds very odd advice from the counsellor. You know you do have the willpower to do this and you can do it.
