[honey-dd]

day five and doing OK not hungry at all but made a mistake today went out without having something to eat at dinner time and started to feel really ill :cry:

so as it was going to be a while till i get home decided to make executive decision and had a small half a chicken breast felt instantly better and cut one pack and drank 3 litters of water ,so i wasn't hungry and have no intention of eating again but needs must lol

 

[Sunflowers]

Well done Honey!!!

I hate it if I get caught out somewhere without some food - I've left a tetra in my locker at work for that reason incase I forget one!!

Well done for choosing chicken - am sure that wont affect things!!

 

[honey-dd]

well day 7 and WI tomorrow ,I'm well and truly in ketosis I'm struggling not cos I'm hungry but because i want to eat lol but I'm resisting and my DP is proud of me so thats all that matters ,

I'm worried about next week though its going to be very busy from Mon with early mornings as my granddad is in hospital :cry:Mon for operation and its not in my town but another so I'm going to have to spend allot of time in notts hospital worried i wont get enough water and I'm only drinking 2 L at mo and i hate warm tetras and the bars need extra water and my blood sugar levels are all over the place I'm feeling dizzy and tired allot so I'm worried already lol but I'm sure ill be fine .

wow size 10 congrats

i have two wedding dresses one a size 16 so thats a 14 wedding dress size and my dream dress size 18-20 ,i love that dress so much and i wont buy another and cant buy my dress anymore so will have to find a seamstress to take it in i want it taken in up to 4 sizes i think but will be happy at two ,when i was measured at the bridal shop they said a size 24 iv never been a 24 at full term preg I'm only a 20 now so there was no chance id buy a 24 dress ,so i found the dress of my dreams (by the same bridal shop???? )in a 18 -20 and guess what it nearly fits id love to know were they buy there tape measure from as it was way off mark

it was the thought of a size 24 dress that got me back on to CD as i want to look gorgeous on my wedding day not fat i don't want bingo wings or double chins i want it all to look good ,

anyway day three no picking I'm in ketosis and apart from a very upset tummy I'm fine had two and a half litters and coke zero as always and three choc tetras ,i have had a few chunks of a bar over the last few days but better that than eat

Ha I was told I needed a size 24 wedding dress too and I was no bigger than an 18!

[honey-dd]

AHH BUGGER HAD SOME CAKE COULD NOT STOP MYSELF I MADE IT THEN ATE IT stupid stupid me ,:cry:but iv not had any more or anything else and I'm drinking 4 litters of water today arty0027:so thats good I'm also at the darkest part of my keto strip so you never know that bit of cake may lift it a bit i know it wont take me out of ketosis as I'm to far in but hopefully with the cake lol and 4 litters of water it will lift the colour to pink not red might not lose as much this week but i know ill be OK ,i want to be thinner far to much.

ohh and get this iv been referred to a fertility specialist as my periods disappeared i was now on 8 th missed period and guess what turned up today how bloody weird my period lol.my apt at fertility clinic is in two weeks ,all my blood tests were normal so its a mystery as to why my periods went AWOL I'm also not ovulating and I'm trying for a baby well was !!so there is obviously something wrong as iv had two kids fine but now 5 years on i cant get preg been trying a year

Hiya Honey, dont beat yourself up about the cake - losing weight is a bit of a journey - but you still get there in the end whether you take a few stops or not!!!

Also - with repsect to the ketostix, the lighter the better - it means you're more hydrated.. If the pink is a dark one then you could do with drinking a little bit more - maybe the heat is dehydrating you? I know you're drinking 4l already - check it again tomorrow and see if it's still dark!!

 

[honey-dd]

thank you

I'm still on darkest part of keto strip iv had 4 litters of water yesterday and ill do today but i can not do more I'm a little worried as i did eat cake yesterday and chicken in the hope it would bring me out a little not the reason i had them but thought it would help later in evening after it was done ,not effected weight loss I'm still loosing but got to get off darkest color don't feel comfy there

on a downer as my rabbit was put down today new it was going to happen but she was only 6 months old

 

[honey-dd]

well two days and 4 liters each .still in darkest part of keto strip ??.still dropping weight but worried about the colour i know my old cdc said that some people are always dark some never get on the strip some never know as they don't test. but it worries me ,but just going to keep up with the 4 litters a day. it does lighten a little only by two colour's up nown and again so i know i should be OK .

iv started spotting again. after Fri it went away but came back last night sooo annoying me iv gone seven months without a period. I'm at the fertility clinic in under two weeks and now I'm spotting. its just my luck ill get a period then they will say they don't need to do anything :cry:as iv had a period i know I'm being silly but i get so upset about my periods going AWOL that the thought of the fertility clinic not helping me even if i get one period really really worries me

 

[honey-dd]

only managed 2 litters yesterday but i was at hospital from 5am till 9 pm and took 2 litters with me as i knew more and i would be needing the loo more lol but i had a good day no picking no food but god did i want a ham salad with egg and cheese and mayonnaise i know i can have it and it wouldn't take me out of ketosis but i didn't lol anyway another day 4 litters to be drunk and nearly 2 weeks down

 

[Pixie]

not that i know of Pixie

but your blood sugars will swing in the first few weeks thats why you feel dizzy and stuff at least thats what ii was told

Hi Honey, glad to see that you are doing so well!
Re. The blood sugar, don't worry it will not swing, only if you eat then stop again (binging etc)
The usual reason for lightheadedness on VLCDs is low blood sugar or low blood pressure.

 

[honey-dd]

I WAS TOLD MY BLOOD SUGARS WOULD BE ALL OVER THE PLACE BY MY CDC (AN EX NURSE )

oops sorry bout caps lol ,its all sorted now i don't have faintness or tiredness so she was right first two weeks would be all over the place ,only normally had it first few days lol
