On day 16 and havnt cheated at all.. lost 10pounds so far.. and have found it particularly well to follow.
However today I feel like I need something to eat food wise :( would even having a boiled egg or slice of ham throw me off track.
Thanks
 
You can push through. Have a glass of water and a break, a walk or something should clear your head. :)
 
Thanks .. done all :( its not as though im hungry its all in my head . Had a craving for boiled egg since yday
 
That's exactly it, it's all metal. It will pass :) I've felt like this for a couple days too but you've just got to keep rememberin the ultimate goal - no surrender!
 
I understand totally where you are coming from.. I love food and I have not struggled with hunger etc I have just been thinking about food constantly. I find a bath quite relaxing and helping when I really need to eat or if it is really bad and the end of the day bed early.

I am a bit of a masacist though as I have started recording my favourite food programs and watching them in a bid to think about what I want to eat when I can eat again. That wouldn't work for everyone. Keeping clothes you want to slim into is also useful. I have just got into my size 16 jeans and they are starting to get a bit baggy already. I started a size 22 so that is a good way to keep motivated. If all else fails then you have the low calorie week to look forward to.

I hope that helps a bit..

Thank you for your tips. . I love baths ao that would be a good idea howrver I have a 2month old baby so I suppose he takes my mind off food moat od time as busy buay.. must admit tho I did havr a boiled egg 2 nights ago... not sure if knocked me out of ketosis though as I dont have the sticks to see and find it hard to tell if I am or not l.
 
Don't worry about the sticks. If you're not hungry and your breath smells you're onto a winner lol ;)
 
Hope that got it out of your head Jmac. Onwards and downwards!

And mels I do exactly the same thing - I call it my food porn,LOL! Just started Celebrity Masterchef and have a load of other stuff recorded to see me though the weekend. :eek:
 
Hey jmac, been a couple days now you feeling better??

A boiled egg will not throw you out of ketosis, it's got no carbs and is a good snack if you really need something. The sticks are not accurate so I would not worry about them at all. What throws you out of ketosis are carbohydrates and so long as you steer clear of them, you'll be fine :)
 
Yes I agree - chuck the sticks altogether. I used to torture myself with them when I was low carbing, but finally worked out that they bore no relation to the amount of weight I was losing, and I've never gone back to them since. If you're sticking to a 600cal diet you WILL be in ketosis within a few days. How's it going anyway?
 
hey all thanks for the support... i did have a boiled egg a few times and 2 nights ago picked at a few prawns.. but I think im still in ketosis as stinky breath and not hungry.

Weighed myself today and that's me 3 weeks and 1day into diet and I have lost exactly a stone. I am mega pleased and so glad I didn't give in so thanks for the support ladies.

I have another stone to use and I have a month and a half till my target date as my sons christening is coming up amd want to lool good for that.

Hopw you are all still sticking at it and are reaching your targets.

Coming out of ketosis friday for the weekend then back on it monday as I have a party sat and I am going to treat myself to a few drinks. Would I be okay to go back into total solution again rather than go to working as I would have had the weekend off

Well done you! Hope you have a great time at the weekend and enjoy your few bevvies! And I think you'd be fine to go back to TS personally.
