as from tomorrow i am starting sole source. the prep week has been good and i have no problems thru the day and had low / no carb meal in the evening . i find it is in the evening when kids in bed and hubby gone to work ( he works permenant nights , surpirising i have kids !!) that i pick !
am guessing i havent gone into ketosis yet but hope once i start ss it wont take long. my mother commented today she thought i had lost some wt, shock, horrow she usually tells me i need to loose some.
she is nice and slim but i guess that when my dad died last year , she gave up eating and i comfort ate and sank a few bicardi and cokes ( diet of course ) . my dad was only in his 60's (i am 36 ) and i know i have put on a stone since he died.:cry:
so any tips from you experieced cd would be appreciated.
i have been surprised at how much i have gained from joining this forum, given me more will power than i thought.
i am looking forward to ss and seeing a difference in my body shape.
one problem i have had so far is not sleeping well, guessing it maybe because i am having caffeine withdrawal. i cant tolerate black coffee, i have tried, can do the sweeetner , used to have 1 sugar, so now i have a small drop of skimmed milk. i am now only drinking one coffee a day where i was drinking about 15.
i thought my biggest challenge was the water intake however got a nice fancy glass that hold 250 mls and its going down well and i am drinling more than the minimum of water.
will that 1 coffee make much difference ... it really is like a teaspoon of skimmed milk and only once a day !!! :sigh:.
any advice gratefully recieved. after biggest birthday challenge today i believe i can suceed.
