susan, i promise it will pass. I remember feeling the same but now im on week 12!! Keep going, keep yourself busy, have another water, coffee or peppermint tea. Clean the house, go for a walk, go to the MALL or something , just keep going. Good luck
Don't give up, this feeling will pass and these are the hardest days you will go through. Take yourself off for a walk if you can. Have a coffee, or just concentrate on your work. I know it's tough but you can do this. Remember why you are doing this - keep your goals at the front of your mind. Make a list of the things you will do once you are at your goal weight.
Hey,
Your doing fab, just stick with it.. drink more water and take yourself off for a walk at lunch time to keep you busy. Thats what I tend to do and then have your shake when you get back.. Its so worth it...
It will defiantely pass xx
If it gets horrendously bad half an extra half a pack?
Make it up with double the water though, think a hot options type drink rather than a full thick shake. So a half pack made with 250ml water, made hot, will supress your appetite a bit more than it made cold.
Also try drinking some tea or coffee black with a tablet sweetner or two. Green tea or peppermint tea are great for this and I think my first few weeks I lived off tea in addition to my packs.
thanks guys, appreciate your support. will buy some fizzy water and peppermint tea when i finish work. not left my desk all morning for fear of going canteen.
It will definately pass, I struggled for the first week and a half, but then found it much much easier... I also have my shakes hot as I tend to have the chocolate ones and I halve them, so have 6 smaller shakes a day rather than 3 thick ones, I use twice as much water as it says too, so they are not too thick and go further... Keep it up, things will definately get better...
