Al, this morning you said that you remember day 3 being the hardest. Today is day 3 ... it's always darkest before the dawn, my friend.

Early night and things will be better, easier, brighter tomorrow :D

Tbh though, I think you do actually wanna do this. I think you r going through the stage where your body will do anything! To get you to eat. You just gotta keep deciding to keep going x

So true! I could eat my own arm atm!!! But I'm going to persevere tonight then reassess again tomorrow morning when in feeling stronger ;-) Thanks for the support you are all fabulous :)

Now for food porn or in tonight's case torture in the form of Great British Bakeoff! I can't miss Mr Hollywood for anything :p xxx
 
Hey!!

I dunno if tvhis will b of any help but in th week i lost 6lbs i can assure u i wasnt in ketosis atall.... It was still a vlcd as i wasnt sneaking lots of high calorie stuff, but i was nibbling on things that would keep me out of ketosis.... So for my return it just showed i didnt need ketosis,
Im like u.... How the hell i managed months on it before wen i can barely last 3days this time, but its very true - we r very near goal now and i like u think i look 'ok' so theres not that burning kick up the arse to push through it!!!

I feel so lost at the moment i just dunno what to do, i feel like im kinda gonna try and stay very low cals/carbs in the weekdays and maybe a day off at the weekend? Just dont think i have the wilpower to do another week cd :( lol!!!! X
 
Just been looking through my diary and the two weeks where I lost weight on JUDDDD I had 3UDs and 4DDs!!

Tbh on the rest of the weeks I've had 4 UDs with sometimes 3 of those in a row (fri, sat, sun!) so is it any wonder I haven't lost! I guess I should be glad not to have put on??!

I'm not sure if I'm just trying to convince myself that JUDDDD will work but.... I'm so bloody confused!

Right forgetting about it until tomorrow!

First time for everything! But I am feeling particularly confused tonight so not sure you should listen to me lol! ;-) xxx
 
Just to chuck in my 10 cents worth, i reckon try and plough on for 1 whole week, otherwise as u say the 3 days of misery will have been for nothing! No point deciding before a week is up really as you won't have any 'real' results. If after a week u have had a loss then great, but come back to proper alternate day juddd like at the beginning. If u havent lost then i still think the answer is the same. No energy for exercise is the worst thing in my opinion as i know how much u were loving getting into the running, and at the end of the day i know this is about losing weight and looking good, but should also be about ur health. Exercise required for optimal healthy life in body and mind so i think u need to do a way of eating that allows for that.

Ok so that was more ten pounds than cents but u catch my drift ;-)
Xxx
 
Morning Yoga, Hope your ok this morning and dont be too hard on yourself whatever you decide. i did CD for a couple of weeks and didnt stick religiously and still lost weight but have to say dont think it really helps in the long run xx
 
Ok so....

I understand that I've been feeling and sounding confused! So last night I did what any sensible girl does when having a crisis of this kind... I phoned my mom!

And... She gave me a complete lecture about how "fabulous" I looked now and that I didn't need to stick to daft faddy diets any more - I needed to be happy and healthy!

She went onto tell me how bloody miserable and snappy I was during my 5 months on CD and how she avoided talking to me at the time (which looking back is true... Just didn't realise it!)... This miserable Alex was also confirmed by my 11 year old who slapped his head and said "oh please no!" when I told him I was dieting again lol!

My mom went onto tell me that at 40 I should avoid being too skinny as I now had wrinkles to think about and being too thin made these worse!

So my mom thinks CD is wrong, my son thinks its wrong, my minimins friends think its wrong!!?

So last night I reread my whole diary (which confirmed my JUDDDDing happiness!) and looked at what I ate on my two weeks when I lost ! This made me rethink the reasons why I hadn't lost on the other weeks :)

The final straw was feeling exhausted this morning... So much so that I struggled to get out of bed! And.... I have a huge spot on my chin??!!!! Not had a spot since first week of CD last time!

So in conclusion lol! I'm back JUDDDDing today! Im going to make sure i have 4 DDs and 3 UDs each week and stick to my DD calories but apart from that im not thinking about it anymore!!

So.... Can I come back into the bosom of my JUDDDDing friends :-D ???? Sorry for the ramblings this week lol! Xx
 
YAY!!!!! Xxxx

I can answer this (i think) The calories the JUDDD website gave, and 4 DD's and 3UD's :) same as when i was losing! Xx

Exactly right my lovely friend :) So that's what I'm doing from today :-D Which is obviously an UD after my 3 hellish days!!!!

Then DDD Thursday/Friday - WI Saturday morning then UDs Saturday/ Sunday and repeat :)

PS Had a sneaky WI on the way to work this morning and have in fact lost 2 pounds since Friday morning... So that was very UD Friday night and an even more Up Saturday (moms birthday!) and then the equivalent of 3 DDs - showing that if I get the balance right I WILL lose weight :)
 
Well done on your decision. Lets hope those 2lb stay off and aren't just water weight!!
