Day 3 wibbles

[LizS]

A good 100% day here (day 3) but feeling BAAAAAD - I know its the slump before it gets better, but even so. Tired, shaky, stressy, ill, headachy, and HUNGRY - i could eat this laptop. So fed up arguing with Ethel (the devil on my shoulder who wants me to have 'just a bit of cheese' or 'a tiny piece of ham'). Shut up Ethel.

If I didn't know it'd get better soon then I'd be so close to giving in. But I won't, as i know how good it gets. Just getting there is horrible. I hate this wall.

sorry no point just wanted a whinge! lx

Thanks CW - I shall do exactly that!
Current plan is to hibernate at home tomorrow with a 'migraine' cos if I feel this bad I won't be going to work, but I'll see how I feel in the morning and hope guilt doesnt' drive me out of bed (like it did today) - I so should have stayed at home!

I LOVE how you've named "Ethel" Hang in there-it will get so much easier!!

 

[eyeontheprize]

it's worth it liz! Promise, cross my heart. Take a sickie tomorrow, or as I call them "mental health days"

 

[LizS]

thanks all. A mental health day is certainly in order, I think. EOTP (?) i just checked out your photos - fabulous, inspiring, thank you for posting them.

PS Ethel says goodnight x

I just wanted to wish you well and you need to tell ethel to bugger of and leave you alone or gag her LOL or lock her in a cupboard serves her right

I'm on day 4 and I can confirm it does get easier... last night I was able to stay up until after the kids had gone to bed - and they are only 6 & 3 so they go 'really' early...
Today I have been yawning a bit but other than that - I feel brilliant
Just keep at it - we will get there together !

Hmmm - despite taking my 'mental health day' today, I am not really feeling all that much better. Trying to take my mind off things, but am headachey, lethargic, tired and still hungry. I have NOT cheated or 'blipped' so its just taking me an age to get into ketosis.

Might go back to bed and try to sleep through it. Or play lego star wars to take my mind off it. I stared into the fridge for five minutes earlier, didn't have anything, but am thinking it. Just wish I could get there and be ok.....waaaah

thank you for your lovely compliment last night Liz

I'm sorry to hear you're not feeling any better! i felt awful on my first few days, but honestly, just to repeat what everyone else has said - it does get better! and the results are worth it.

have a nice long bath, play star wars, do whatever you can to distract yourself. and drink lots of water! good luck x
