Hi Everyone! DAY ONE S/S

[Alfaasil]

Yeah think I may paste mine first. And I put more water into my shakes too as I don't like them so thick. Thanks for all your great advice x

Hey

I have just done this with my spicy tomato soup! It does actually say on the back of the pack to add a bit of cold water turn into a paste before adding the hot water... Added lots of cracked black pepper and it was yummy!!

 

[shazzy_shaz]

Ohhh that's a good idea! speaking of which how are you finding day two Alfaasil?

 

[Alfaasil]

Im on day 3 now, I started a diary yesterday I didn't realise there was a diary section or I'd of started there lol. Day 2 was a bit cruddy felt awful. Today's been better, less sicky. This is the most persistent I've ever been on any diet, yea 3 days I know lol that's how crap I usually am at diets!! X

 

[shazzy_shaz]

I didn't know there was a diary section either! That's great you've made it day 3 it should hopefully get a lot better from here on in! You've made to the dreaded three day hurdle and are flying over it!! You must be pleased with yourself so far!

 

[Alfaasil]

Thank you erm I don't think realisation has set in yet that I have eaten nothing. It is so unlike me because I LOVE food.
I think I will be more motivated when I've had my first WI hopefully I will have lost something, I think I'll be upset if I haven't, for some reason I doubt that I'll lose anything but that's probably because I've failed at everything else. I'll still stick at it though even if I don't lose.

What day ate you on shaz? X

 

[Alfaasil]

Are* stupid iPhone lol

 

[shazzy_shaz]

Snap! I haven't even thought about missing food! Hopefully I'm in or nearly in ketosis by now as the hunger pangs have almost gone now! I had my first weigh in and lost 7lbs and I'm just chuffed I've finally managed to see the scales go down!! i didn't start SS until last Thursday so I'm technically on day 6!

 

[Alfaasil]

That's fantastic well done!!! Been thinking about buying some ketostix just so I can be reassured my fat stores are being burned away lol.

 

[hannah1309]

I just bought some from amazon!! Lol

 

[Alfaasil]

How much Hannah?? X

 

[hannah1309]

How much Hannah?? X

About £5.50 I think for 50!!

 

[Alfaasil]

Thanks! I may have to purchase some

 

[sallyrae]

I bought some of amazon too, they arrived this morning and they showed I was definately in ketosis. will use them to check now and then

 

[shazzy_shaz]

I used mine this morning and it stayed the original colour that it was when it started! Maybe they're not working, I might get one of my family to do one as they're eating carbs!

 

[Alfaasil]

Ive heard apparantly because of the amount of water were drinking it could dilute the ketones in your urine, so sometimes they could be alittle unreliable! x

On another note: weigh in after 5 days, lost 3 lbs! and 1 inch on my hips and 1 inch on my waist! yeey!

 

[shazzy_shaz]

Might explain it! That's great news about your weight loss! I can't believe how many inches you've lost already you must be over the moon!!

 

[Alfaasil]

I am pretty stoked. I know it's not as much as some first time weigh ins but it's 3lbs closer to target
When's you weigh in shazzy?

 

[shazzy_shaz]

My weigh in is on Wednesday! Im nervous as everyone says week 2 is always a slow week! So I'll have to wait and see eek!!!

 

[Alfaasil]

Good luck!! X
