Welll I'm back. Im still pursuing my treatment which is a huge relief but mentally im feeling a million times better....and i waited this past week to see if I was going to dip again but im okay 
so iv started!
I started yesterday sort of by accident...that sounds really stupid but basically i was crazy busy and had nothing but the milk allowance in tea until 11pm when I forced myself to have a bar and figured i may as well make it my day 1! I have work today and tomorrow so im a little nervous as my job is incredibly energetic but hopefully I can get through it and be on my way!

Fell really strange today. I had a few moments during my work where I felt light headed but I pushed through and am now just really tired. Im not hugely hungry, and I thought about eating and re-starting monday as I have two jobs tomorrow ( giving myself the perfect excuse) but I just don't want to. Im a little worried but hopefully I'll be fine. I had a shake this morning so il probably have a mushroom pack with some fish and veg for tea and my bar after. Im surprised at my mentality but im not complaining! Just hope it continues x

Day 5...absolutely exhausted but not really hungry. Felling okay, when I struggle it's a mental thing so im just trying to not even give myself a choice of quitting. Boredom is a problem too...wish I was busy! Switching between 4 and 3+meal depending on how I feel...keep plodding along!

Day 6...not really hungry. Doing this diet means my binging has obviously stopped. Which means I have no way to cover my true feelings. Which is so scarily true because I am suddenly having to confront my hurt rather than hiding behind stuffing myself and getting a sugar high. I know this is good for me and I need to do it...but having my ex back on my mind so much is tearing me up. Just. Keep. Going.

Welll...im disappointed. I know I shouldnt be but I can't help compare it to other 1st week weight losses! I lost 6 or 7 pounds my first week. I didnt weigh myself on day 1 but I weighed a few weeks ago so im adding a pound lost as I reckon I would have been a bit higher. So I now have 36 pounds to go till goal...ohh mann that's daunting! I feel like if im doing such a tough plan I should have lost more my first week!
I suppose I can moan about it, get disheartened, binge, gain it back and wish id carried on.....OR I can suck it up, accept that im losing weight and keep bloody going! I challenged myself so I need to see it through...11 weeks to go! Just wonder if I can make my goal in that time...that would be 3.3 pounds a week...I doubt it! But hey...better get trying!
Goals for week 2:
WATER WATER WATER! - My water intake has been horrifically bad this week...maybe that will aid in a few more pounds dropping off? I love Dr. pepper zero but I need to drink my water too!
ONIONS - Didnt realise these were banned...had them a few times...staying away!
PROTEIN - All I had was fish my first week...think I need to switch it up a bit, throw some eggs in there. Might also do a few more 4 pack days for a change!
Let's go. Day 10 is ALWAYS my break the diet day...bring it on! xx

Day 10: It's been a struggle but compared to the mental torture I usually go too it's been fab Also yesterday I only had tea, dr pepper zero, a bar and a curry pack because I was so busy and exhausted when I got in so think that's made me a little more hungry today. Hopefully will have everything today...im just a little worried as iv run out of bars, nearly out of meals so got shakes but thats worrying...and i really cant afford another order at the mo il just have to get by I guess....no way im stopping! x

You can do it biggus!
Literally had a hellish day yesterday...posted a thread about it because I think its important. Id been pretending my water intake wasnt that important...less learnt!
Day 12...little scared my loss this week is going to be rubbish as I dont feel much different...hope I don't fail. Also expecting some bad news tomorrow so I really hope I can control my emotions. Just need to remember how great I am feeling and why Im doing this. I was on youtube and came across the hcg diet...anyone heard of this? Users have 500 cals a day but also take the hcg hormone via drops or injection and lose like a pound a day! Wonder why we dont have it here...its an american thing. Imagine a pound a day constantly...amazing.
Anyhoo...not much going on today...pouring with rain need to keep busy so should maybe get off the sofa! xx
