Everyday a new challenge

[LadyT]

Hi, well so far managed to get through each day, with very little problems. Although the water is a bit of a bug bear, read on here that its easier to space your water out between packs, which I have to say is working for me now and so onto day 5! Go me !!

I am finding that everyday comes with a different set of challenges. It brings me a lot of satisfaction when I think about how I managed to overcome them and get through another day!

Today for me its a long drive on the motorway, this in itself would have normally meant a front seat full of goodies from the petrol station, which I would have previously called 'my journey friends' to keep me company. Today I have a new CD and lots of small bottles of water as new friends not looking forward to the number of stops I will need though lol.

So, what's your challenge today and how will you/did you overcome it?

Looking forward to hearing some great hints and tips to help me in the future.

Have a great day everyone! x

You are doing really well keep it up X

You are doing the right things swapping old habits for new ones. I always find water goes down easier if its sparkling and in a wine glass ha (old habits die hard but red not in the glass any more) x

Yup... As Jane said, doing well Hun!

Re the water... I use the 'water wheel' method! The idea is you sip little & often... As if you were trying to keep a water wheel going round steadily...

It's a chosen fave method by many on VLCD's... And gives your body the constant rehydration it needs... Always just drink to thirst though... That's the key!

Good luck...

Oh, and my challenge is always drinking the water... But I always manage it, wanna give this diet all the help I can!

Thanks both, loving the wine glass method I had a very tempting day today lots of sparkly on offer, even asked if i wanted to take one home, but I resisted. Its really strange that my head is in a very different space with LL. I just hope it continues I am sure it gets harder as time goes on. Good luck x
