Good to hear you are doing so well Sharon.

The flapjacks do get easier to take, the fact you can actually eat them now so soon on the diet is amazing I have heard of some people liking them right off


Definitely an acquired taste but as you have found out they do come in handy. I had one last night and it took me about an hour to eat it as I found the taste very strong as it has been two years since I had one, but I know from experience that it will eventually be okayish...

The toilet trips do ease off some, but are still pretty often although not as frequent as the first week when glycogen is coming off as it is stored in the body with lots of water.

i dont feel hungry now

If you have no hunger then I would say you are in ketosis.

it is exciting to see how fast the scales go down in the first week!

Well done on your 5lb down already:happy096:

Good luck with your weigh in on Tuesday, that is my weigh in day as well.
