Still doing ok i am kinda hungry but i think its coz i'm bored have had my banana shake this morning for breakfast and now drank 2 litres of water... i should be able to stretch the last 2 litres over the rest of the day unless i get really hungry because then i'll end up drinking even more and i'll be up all night peeing :eek: :D

I am so cold though, am sat here in my thick hoody jumper, slipper socks, with the fire going and the central heating on!!! :eek: I am frozen and cant get warm, my feet are the worst. Stupid thing is this is the 1st day of CD for me completely n/m the challenge and so i cant be in ketosis as said earlier i have cut out a lot of carbs over the last few days but i still have had a fair few.... hmmm not looking forward to the coldness of ketosis at all :eek: but if the hunger lessens then its all good :D
 
Can I join too please!

Hi there

I've only just started CD today so it might be good to share my ups and downs with you all.

Going on holiday in 4 weeks so would really like to lose about a stone before then.

Good luck everyone!
 
i just had a lovely iced mocha and cookie. all made with one choc pack, yummy!
 
You might have to share that recipe Misdee :D Sounds lovely :D
 
mix half your pack into a smooth thick paste, spread on a non-stick cooking sheet (sainsburys used to do them, microwave safe) into a cookie shape. or a couple of smaller ones. zapp for a minute or there abouts.

for the other half of the pack, (i use a bullet blender so no measurements as yet) use approx 4fl oz strong back coffee, 2fl oz water, half a dozen ice cubes(more if you want it thicker), the hlaf pack, 2 sweetner tabs, and blend till its smooth.
 
That definitely sounds yummy :drool:
 
Sob Sob... what is wrong with my willpower :-( i succumbed to my 'nearly in ketosis hunger' and ate rubbish tonight. Stacey was gonna start tomorrow but i have convinced her to start tonight, so we are both starting as of now.

I wasnt gonna tell you all and pretend I had done another day but the only person I am cheating is myself so I decided to fess up. But I am serious, from now on I am 100% dedicated to this challenge! So, Stacey and I, day one! Most of you, day 3, others day 2. Because this could get confusing I think we should say that the challenge will officially end next Friday night/Saturday morning, so those people who only started today can have a full week, (and I get a chance to start over!!)

Well done to everyone that has stuck to it! You're all doing really well and are gonna be skinny minis in no time!

Day 2 here -

Went to bed last night at 11pm and i had the most awful headache.. Down to the Carb/caffiene withdrawal.. :( Got up this morning head still pounding but slightly better than last night so took some painkillers and hoping it goes away! Have put my choccie tetra in the freezer so i'm having ice cream for dinner :D Just hope its better than the choc mint mousse i made, it turned out just as it should but i really didn't like it :( The texture just really made me gag, but as it was all i was gonna get i had to eat it :(

Nevermind fresh day though and no more choc mint for me :D

plus my DH is taking me out to look at a Renault Megane hardtop today :D So trying to keep busy and not think about food :D
 
Hey guys,

Beckie- Sorry to hear you're suffering the headaches. I really struggle with them too going into ketosis :-( but hey hey, only a day now and they'll be gone... gone I tell you!

Stace- go and get a blender now! Stop being lazy :p I'm going to follow your lead now and try and make tomato crisps! Last time I tried to make crisps they turned into a gloopy gunk and had to bin them, so hoping it'll be 2nd time lucky! Stace, let me know how yours turned out!

xx
