Day 3 and I'm struggling...

[Slinky_Malinky]

Day three in the Slinky house. Weeing non stop, freezing, headachey, bored of water, bored of shakes, but mostly, MOSTLY starving. I'm really flagging. I'm so glad my OH is here, because it is almost only pride stopping me from dialling something unmentionable on this forum. I KNOW I need to just hang in there.

I was pretty proud of myself this lunchtime as I went to the supermarket and although my head was turned by half price offers on my favourite rubbish and the delicious smell of baking, I managed to walk down every aisle and not purchase anything naughty.

Why oh why is it though that it is the naughty stuff I'm craving? The stuff that got me into this mess in the first place? What is it about carbs, saturated fats, and alcohol that I am so under their spell? I would honestly gnaw my arm off for a sarnie right now.

..............it's an addiction Slinky like any other and you are having withdrawl symptoms. If you can just hang on in there it sounds to me like you are on the brink of ketosis and that will help big time. Just try to remember why you started on this road in the first place and hang onto that thought!!!! It will get easier.........promise. Big hugs. xx

Oh I know Slinky.Hopefully it won't be long now until you feel better.Just think about how healthy you'll be, how clear your skin will be and how slim you'll be very very soon.Hang onto those thoughts and picture how proud you'll be.You can do this xx

Keep going Slinky and focus on what you want to get out of this. You've done well to get through 3 days, just keep at it, and very soon you'll be in ketosis, and hopefully will start to feel a lot better. I hope you have a great weekend, and brilliant that you have a supportive OH to help you through. Stick with it
