I am loving the safety and security of being on the packs, and knowing that the weight is going!!! But, this time round it seems harder in some ways mentally, than the first time. I think this is for a few reasons, the first time I had a lot to loose, this time I only want to loose a stone.... also this time my sister is eating normally which she wasnt the first time, she was in abstinence too. Now I know that 90% of people doing this diet live with their o/h's and kids eating, but as I work with food all day, the first time I came home and it was a bit of an escape, now I feel totally surrounded by the stuff!!! I think it's also a little to do with the fact that I could loose the stone with Lite, but choose not to, because I know in my Adult state that this is the way that works best with me, and if I started with a meal it could potentially spiral... It just seems easier, and yet harder to resist food atm, not that I have eaten, but I have had some thoughts of " ooh well you could have protein and be ok" not entirely sure where these are coming from.... perhaps because I am feeling a little emotionally fragile??? Any ideas, or advice, would be fab, not that I will break my 100% abstinence, because then I would feel I had broken my record and it would negate in some way my 100% abstinence first time round...
