Hello everyone ,

Dione - I wouldn't worry about one slice of cheese, I'm sure that won't make a difference at your WI.

Right, I just got back from my 17th WI and lost 5lbs, I'm 15st 3lbs now and hope to lose a stone this month, so down to 14.13 by Tuesday 29th June.

I know I should be happy with my weight loss so far but I'm not as motivated as in the first couple of weeks, this evening after WI I had my CD soup and I also had 4 oatcakes with some low fat houmous. I've been feeling very tired the last 2 weeks and it's as if my body is craving those extra calories (not sure if that is really the case or if I'm just trying to find a good excuse ). I know it's not the end of the world (the oatcakes are low carb and I'm pretty sure they won't have taken me out of ketosis) but I miss the taste of food more and more and I have to say they were absolutely delicious. I don't have real cravings for sweets or anything, I just miss not having a proper meal.

Anyway, I want to do another month of SS and then perhaps move to SS plus or 810 kcals if I still struggle mentally. I'd rather have a slower loss than start bingeing on chocolate (which has always been my downfall) because I miss food too much. The fact that people have been complimenting me and that I feel so much better also plays a role I think. It's easy to get a bit complacent.

I have a dinner with a friend on 11th June but have otherwise no food planned so I should be able to manage a stone if I stick to SS (meaning - no post weigh in "treats")!

Sorry for the rambling post, just had to get that off my chest.

Good luck everyone, here's to a good month :happy036:

 

[culturedsquirrel]

Started today - put me down for 20....fingers crossed

Dione - Don't worry about the cheese! It's a small slip and is at least protein and not carbs so won't make a bit of difference at your WI.

You've got a lot on with your little one being poorly etc so don't beat yourself up!

Forget about it and move onwards and upwards (or downwards on the scales)

Day 1 for me and already hungry - argh!

It will get better, is this your first time on CD?

 

[Cartwoman]

Morning all, I hope everyone is getting on well.
I realise that I'm getting a bit fed up at times. I just miss having diner and eating with my husband or friends, or even cooking at times. Actually planning to make a nice (and healthy meal). At times I really wish that time would go faster and I'm down another 2 stones. Sigh. I guess I'm just a bit bored with the same meals ^^

 

[Agnes]

Cartwoman, I know how you feel, after a couple of months this diet starts to get really boring. I also miss not having a meal with friends or family. I know I'm not there yet so it's best to stick with SS for a little longer and then perhaps move up a step. Good luck!

 

[katybear]

Thanks hon! Not my first time unfortunately, am a returner Although I'm hungry I'm kind of relishing taking back control again after a few weeks (or months!) eating and drinking whatever the hell I wanted. Just found some cookies at the back of the cupboard and made my husband eat them so I'm not tempted later on!

First real test is tomorrow as going to the cinema with friends and hate watching films without popcorn :cry:

But I'm determined! And by the weekend the dreaded first few days will be over at least

xxxx

 

[Dione]

Dont worry Katybear we can do this together xxxxxx

Well done Dione on your 7lb loss!

Day 1 of the June challenge (yesterday): bad bad day, worst since I started CD, not really sure why but I put it behind me now, I promised myself to post on here every day

Day 2: had a good start this morning and my head seems to be in the right place again

Oooo yay!!!!! WELL DONE! See I told you the cheese wouldn't matter That is brilliant and very motivating! You go girl!

Day 1 went off pretty smoothly although when I was tidying up I unearthed a Chocolate Orange bar (which I love) and had to throw it in the bin and spend all night pretending it wasn't there! Resisted though which is good.

Watching Sex and the City 2 tonight with my girl friends so looking forward to that, no popcorn though

You've inspired me to get through Day 2 Dione, thanks xxxx

Got through the dreaded Day 2 and stayed strong at the cinema - no popcorn for me!

Day 3 today and my husband is starting 810 which I'm hoping will be really helpful.

Keep up the good work everyone and enjoy the sunshine
