Hey, I've made it through day 2. I got really hungry in the afternoon....i need to check if I can have all my shakes spaced out from about 3.30pm onwards as that is when I get ravenous. Is that ok?

 

[fattothin]

yep i think so

 

[lillie]

as long as you have all 3 there is no times you have to have them xx

Day 3. What a day! I got so moody late this afternoon. Nearly ran over an off-duy cop, had a tiff with my best friend cos her usually funny candour just irritated me today. My kids were driving me up the wall bickering all the way to bed-time and I know it's not hormonal cos my period 's just ended.

 

[fattothin]

Is this not normal behaviour for a women xxxx

 

[Maka]

Oi- watch it mate! Could chop your bits off at the rate I'm going today. And I could plead momentary insanity due to starvation!

 

[fattothin]

chop em off and eat em? No one is that hungry

 

[Maka]

Wanna bet!!? But seriously now - is this a carb withdrawal symptom? I have moderate ketones now.

 

[fattothin]

Nope its just your head playing with you thats all just be yourself be happy and smile sweetly xxx

hi maka ... well done for stickin with it so far it will get easier as everyone says ... just to say i was real moody on day three ... felt really weepy and tetchy !... maybe its just one of those things i was fine day after and never had it again ... in fact i feel brill never better ... and getting slimmer all the time!.... maybe you would feel better if you could spread your shakes out a little .. more like normal meal times ?just a thought thats all .... bye for now ... sharon. x

 

[Maka]

Really? Ok. Am making a vanilla shake with some coffee in it and calling it a night before I do some damage. Good nite...and thank you

 

[Maka]

Thanks Shaz. I don't feel hungry until late afternoon so I wonder if I wouldn't be starving mad if I spaced my shakes throughout the day. Worth a try, so will give it a try and see how I get on. Day 4! Much better today. My weigh in's tomorrow simply cos my pharmacist sees me on Fridays. My stomach feels flatter already..can't wait to get a waistline and all me curves back.

 

[fattothin]

Once you find your own routine you'll be laughing.........well grinning sort of ish!

Day 5. Sailed through. I am so excited about my weigh-in tomorrow. I ordered a treadmill cos I'd like to get fit too and I am starting to feel rather energetic. Next week, I might even manage 15-20 mins on it while watching TV. I found a reason to motivate me even more: an alumni reunion in August! I really don't want people I last saw over a decade ago to see me like this. I want to look great and to be able to wear something sexy. Who knows, I might even rekindle the sparks with my high-school sweetheart(who so happens to still be a VERY eligible bachelor. Bed-time! Sweet Dreams everyone!

Yippee!!! 3.45kg lost in Week 1 ...that's about half a stone isn't it? I feel great - despite having a flapjack for the first time tonight and finding it horrid!
