£36 is a lot of money but I used to think of it as my own weekly shopping list if that makes sense. I'd have all the food I needed for the week and it didn't feel like a load of money then considering I used to spend more on junk and food that I thought I wanted at the time but never got round to eating. However I hope it still feels that way when the baby is born and that I'll have the money, but I've been told I'll get help where needed with the diet. So hopefully I'll be able to do it.
As for needing meats and stuff like that, I'm exactly the same, however, it's a few months of your life where you're doing this diet and not having those foods so that when you've finished doing diet, you can go back to eating meat and stuff, but obviously in healthier portions etc.
I'm a huuuuuuuuuuuge chocoholic too and that was difficult but as I said, once you've gotten over the first week and you see how much weight you're losing, it becomes so unimportant, your big focus is losing that weight.
It is up to you ultimately, but we were all in that same boat of thinking about what we'd miss, but it becomes easier.
If your way is the way you've chosen then I wish you loads of luck hun, but at least you know theres another option if you want it and wanted to let you know about it.
