I'm ashamed to say that I've told no one other than my hubbie (hard to hide it from him ! ) and my sister. And two friends who also struggle with their weight, but have done LL or CD in the past.
When I did it last time, I copped SO much flack from work colleagues and 'friends' for doing a FRD that I just havent told anyone I'm doing it. (In fact I lied after 6 weeks and said I had come off it) I'm finding it a little harder this time as I found it easier whilst at work to just say 'No -thanks' to eating any snacks/biscuits and I would go home for lunch and have my bar there. This time though I'm at home (on Mat Leave) and I know that I'm finding it hard to not snack from the cupboard. But the will power is most definately there now. (I do taste some stuff though as I cook my daughters food from scratch so do have little tastes - CDC knows this and has assured me it's fine as it's literally the same amount of food that is the size of your little finger nail)
But I've gone off on a tangent again. I see a lot of people at the different mum and baby groups but finding it a little difficult to turn down all the lunch invites. Coffee is no trouble as I can pull the 'No biscuits for me thanks as I'm counting calories' and just have black coffee if no skimmed milk is available. I feel if I were to say I'm doing CD they'll say 'Oh gosh, she must be desperate and ditching the weight in such a lazy way'
