Well, I know how much you all love my threads moaning and whining (ssshhhyeeah right!), so I thought I'd give you an update on my progress so far.
My first four days on the diet, in case you haven't noticed from all my whinging, have been bloody awful. My respect for you guys has gone up ten fold. Not that it was low before or anything. You know what I mean
So I struggled to sleep in the night, dreamt about food again (cheese and onion pies mmm) and was up and down to the loo with all the water.
Then, I woke up this morning absolutely starving, as usual.
But then the weirdest thing happened! I had my chocolate shake with a spoon of FibreClear and coffee and drank it down. And I felt full at the end! Full!
FULL!
F U L L ! ! ! ! !
For the first time in five days!
I haven't got ketone strips but I'm assuming this means I am in ketosis! I still feel a bit weird and weak - but I don't care - I was full!
I felt like ringing people and telling them how full I was. But I thought that might be a bit strange.... A random phone call from me saying 'Guess what - I'm full! WOOHOO!'
So I'm telling you lot instead. I'm sure you'll appreciate it
I've had another shake too and I felt okay after that too. And my headaches have pretty much gone - no paracetamol so far today.
One thing I have learnt is that there is absolutely no going back. Last night I was seriously soooo close to stopping. Someone started a thread saying the diet wasn't for them and it was lovely and they said thank you and good luck to everyone and I thought, hmm, I could do that too.
And if I did I could get a pizza!
But no way now. You lot are stuck with me! I'm not going through all that ***** of the first few days again - I've got my ketones and I'm keeping them till I'm at target!
It's vanilla and chocolate all the way for me now!

I promise to stop moaning now. Um, well. Maybe.
