Hi all,
I haven't had a WI for 11 days, and today I found out I have lost... 3lbs.
I did have a meal on Sat and Sun, so strictly speaking only did 9 out of the 11 days, but I am still disappointed with such a small loss.
I have now completed a full month on SS, and have lost only 13lbs. Normally I lose at least a stone and a few extra lbs in my first month, so it's not as good as I'm used to. But that's not why I'm so disheartened...
You may have seen my plea for help regarding my side-effects. I have been feeling so rubbish for the past three weeks that I literally don't have the energy to do anything. I feel depressed, constantly on edge and can't cope with the tiniest pressure. This is not like me and I can't deal with the fact that I've tried so hard, dealt with all the rubbishy side effects, and lost less than the normal amount - less than MY normal amount.
CDC has advised to go to GP about all my side effects as CD HQ told her that it shouldn't be the diet that is causing all this - although I didn't feel like this when eating normally so maybe the diet has kicked off something in my body that I just wasn't aware of beforehand.
Haven't taken any more packs from her and will call her tomorrow when I have seen the GP and taken their advice. She has suggested that maybe SS/SS+ isn't enough for me and I should go up a plan or two, but I really don't want to - I feel I may as well be on WW or SW if I'm gonna do that.
Also money is v. tight at the moment and I can't afford to buy food and packs together - one or the other I can just about handle.
Anyway, sorry for my long post but feel totally lost right now. Am going to hope my GP can help me tomorrow and take it from there.
