Hi all! As Kira says, we've done it before so there is no reason or excuse to prevent us from doing it again. Getting back on track and into ketosis is a pain, but it's a short-lived one and worth it. We won't lose our fat and start feeling more in control and better about ourselves until we do.
Aysha - stop beating yourself up, accept your new starting point and throw the temptations in your cupboards out! Or give them away. They are not doing you any good and as long as you keep feeling crap about how much you've gained back, they present a danger as you're vulnerable. You know all this - you just need to get it back in your head.
Make a list of all the reasons why you want to lose weight. Put a copy on your bathroom mirror. A copy in your purse. A copy on the fridge. You have some of the most important reasons ever - health, another baby, participating in your children's lives and watching them grow up, looking forward to grandkids one day. Far better than simply looking good in a pair of jeans (tho' that's important too).
So - how's it gone today? What did you have for breakfast? For lunch? Drinking enough? Here's my day: bkfst: CD chewy choc bar and a coffee; lunch: CD chick & mush soup, loads of water, 1 clementine.

yey gotta kick that habbit as my son sees me on them and he keeps asking to get weighed not seeing my cdc till the 16th so will see how i get on!!!That's fantastic Aysha! Both going strong on plan and also not being tempted by the scales! I wish I could do that but I'm still not ready to...... one victory at a time! Last night my victory was not caving into a glass of wine last night when my ex was hassling my teenage son! The stress he can cause has sent me over the edge at times both my husband and I decided we were not going to allow him to disrupt our family and my teenager managed really well.

Aysha! I don't know how you do it ... the thought of doing Day 1 over and over again is just too much! I'm glad you keep plugging at it...but it must be exhausting!
Did you make a list of all the reasons you want to lose? Do you have it posted somewhere visible so you can see it every day, preferably multiple times?
Did you throw out / otherwise get rid of, all the food that is tempting you and is not necessarity good/nutritious for your family?
Have you read your thread from last year? You did so amazing and had such a great frame of mind - perhaps reading it will help you get back into the zone. There is NO doubt in my mind that you can nail this diet and get to goal - once you decide to do it.
So - Day 1 down and onto Day 2, yes? This is your year!!!!

Hey Tizzy yh am on day 2 now and feeling confident! I know i know i am really struggling to get my head around it but need to and will get back on track! I know why i need to loose the weight and it should be agd insentive to stay strong but i have had the whole 'i will start tomorrow' in my head but written on the fridge that tomorrow may never come to remind me!
Once i get back to seeing my cdc tomorrow i think i will be fine! Walk of shame this week but next week we will see a loss and i will have confidence in myself and hope she will have some in me too! I kinda feel like she will give up on me soon!!!
Well all strong here, lots of black coffee and english breakfast tea as it is too cold for water!

Hi hunni,
I've found it do hard since my wedding but somehow my head is in the right place this time. Good in you for keep going, life throws too many temptations our way and social activities are so hard on CD that I guess I knew after Vegas that Xmas was just around the corner so I put a mental block in place knowing I would gain so I kind of sabotaged myself. I also have a holiday booked ( mine is Sept ) so it's great to have something to focus on. I know if I stick to plan with minimal breaks for other things already booked I will be at target well before our 1 year , anniversary holiday and there is no better feeling than going away knowing you have done your best to help you feel and look your best. Think how good you will feel on your May holiday
Take each day as it comes and you will crack this, you've done it before and you can do it again. We all know the first few days are the toughest but were all in this together so keep strong and post as much as you need to x x x
