Hi everyone. I am on day 4 of CD. Been doing well but today is proving difficult not because I am thinking of food but just because I feel so weak. Is this normal? Will it pass?

Hi there. Hate to say it but yes it's normal and it should eventually pass. But I have been so much more tired than ever before on this diet. I find listening to my body and trying to get a nap and keeping my water levels up really helps. You're almost over the first few days...keep going...your week 1 loss should be worth it! best of luck... Kate xx

Sorry just realised I posted on the wrong thread! X

Yes it will pass, and for me it usually passes on day 4 when I hit ketosis. Give it a few days and you will have an abundance of energy. Fingers crossed.

This weather doesn't help... far too humid.

Thank you I am hoping for a good loss on Sunday when I get weighed to give me the motivation to keep going! Like I say it's not the hunger as I seem to have that under control. Just the fatigue. Look forward to it getting better

Congrats on sticking to it for 4 days Downsizeme, each day is a mini-celebration that first week Day 4 was my hardest by far. Day 5 I went into ketosis and things got a lot easier, lots more energy. And day 7 when you weigh in, you'll be so proud of yourself that day 4 will seem a million years ago

Thank you all so much. Day 5 now and I have to say I feel completely different from yesterday. Going to my friends wedding reception tonight which is going to be hard but, I know how proud I'll feel with myself if I stick to it! Good luck all of you on your journey! ? X

How did you cope with the wedding? I had one last night too. Took a bar and a frozen tetra!

I coped fine actually. Took a tetra with me too. So proud. My first weigh in I lost 10lbs so I'm really chuffed. Was struggling today as I had such a sweet craving but my consultant told me to heat up one of the chocolate tetras and add a spoon of coffee! It has saved my life and tastes amazing!

Downsizeme, well done on your 10lb loss! That's brilliant!

I really love RachelJane's comment that every day is a mini-celebration. Each one is a victory, after all!
