WElcome to LT, becky and Seph.
I can promise you, as we almost all can, that it gets SO much easier. Brave your way through the news 2-4 days and you will start feeling better. You will stop feeling hungry (it's almost magical, i swear!) and your body will go into ketosis which is when you start the real business of weight loss...
It does get better, it does get easier. There will be some bumps along the way I'm sure - we are all only human after all. But wishing you both really good luck for the first few hard days.
