Hello, I'm new on here. Thin Lizzie is my aim, not my starting point - I'm more Sweaty Betty at the moment
Anyway, I started SS on Thursday and now it's Sunday evening, so 4 days without food. I have to say, I do feel like my life has rather ended. My main passtime for the last n years has been eating and drinking; a typical day would be: breakfast - toast and marmalade and tea, an apple mid morning, lunch a yummmy sani of some description (bacon and egg a favourite) followed by a slice of flapjack, another apple mid afternoon - and then the eating REALLY started: as soon s the clock struck six it's out with cork and the first large glass of wine with some olives, then for dinner a nice, fat sirloin steak with a whole baked potato and veg, then icecream (low fat, of course) for pud. I would generally go through between 1/2 to 1 bottle wine each night, with maybe one day off alcohol a week. And this is when we didn't go out - dinner out was considerably more calorific. So you can probably see how the pounds crept (or rather charged) on. Anyway, unwisely maybe I went straight from the wonder diet above to SS overnight, and I am struggling a bit. Mainly I am:
I've got 5.5 stone to lose - :sign0009:can anyone give me some moral support to keep me going on CD rather than straight to the chippy for a delicious, juicy cod, chips and mushy peas....

- HUNGRY
- Missing all the above food and wine
- HUNGRY
- Not sure whether being thin is actually better than being able to eat what I want
- HUNGRY
- Irratible and despondent
- HUNGRY
- Tired all the time (have been going to bed before 9am and sleeping in the day)
