Apologies, this might geta little long... I am on week 9 of LL and have found the last week and a half to be really difficult, I don't know what it is, the weight loss is good but I really miss food. On two occasions over the last week, I ended up putting some food into my mouth before even realising what I was doing, but managed to "dispose" of it before I could swallow it. My crooked thinking is working overtime, and the thoughts of "how bad can a little something be" is constantly in my head. Now I don't intend to give up on the programme and I don't want to cheat, as I know LL works, and also I don't see the point in paying someone lots of money and then cheat, even if I would get away with it but I am just constantly around food (hubby and three little ones) and its driving me mad at the moment.
I wonder whether the realisation of how far I still have to go finally hit me. I started LL with the idea of "oh yeah, let's lose the 3 stone they promise and then I'll see how I feel". Now I am 3lbs short of those 3stone, and I still feel FAT!! I manage to queeze into a size 18 now (which, don't get me wrong, is great) but somehow I thought 3stone would make me a lot slimmer than I am now (hope this makes sense).
Now funnnily, my LLC has warned us just last week that week 9 can be a bit tricky for some people, she didn't give us a reason why but I suppose she must have seen people struggling at this stage in the past. Am I just fed up with LL and no food or is now the time when my food demons are going into overdrive and try every trick in the book to get me to give up and eat?? Desperate and confused...:help2:
