Hi all,

Well you know I told that I'm a serial weigher?? Well I weighed myself this morning I was 15st 12lbs. I have just weighed myself again and I'm....... 15st 9lbs!!!!! :-0. I know this isn't real weight-loss, just water!! But still I love seeing those numbers go down for a change. I will only count my CDC weigh in as my official one x

Oh and I looooove the banana shake!!

Good Evening Ladies..

Its so nice to see alot more people wanting to help & support other people on this thread..

A massive HIYA....... :banana dancer: to you all that have introduced yourselves, some fab posts..
Its nice as I can relate to you all in different ways.

Have had a bit of a crap day as first day back at work after 11 days off, trying to close month end off, had loads to do to catch up & had to ram it in before 2pm as I had an hospital appointment which didnt go as I planned it as the specialist didnt seem bothered at all... but hey ho..

So I have had 2 packs, 2l of water & 2l of tea. (I have a disney mug that holds exactly a litre or fluid) Starting to feel cold & my head feels muggy if that makes sense..
Takes me normally bout 3 days to get into ketosis, just cant wait to get there as at the moment I feel STARVIN... ARGHHHHHH... lol

EmmaLou I normally have my packs around 10, 3 & 7 but tbh it varies everyday..

It's the Shake, it mixed ok. I used a shaker. I had it with lots of ice in my Starbucks cup ( like the frappacino ones). I really liked it.

Hope tomorrow is less of a struggle for you. X

Yeah I bought a shaker too, I might buy some ice bags for work then see how that goes as they will last longer than the tetra anyway.
Thanks Hun, I hate the first few days...

I hate ALL porridges - RANK!

Today is my 2nd day SS back on the wagon..must admit I had 4 shakes instead of 3 but I needed an extra boost at the end of the day (on my period too so that doesnt help) also yesterday I had a coffee with semi-skimmed milk in it, and a diet coke. But no food has passed my lips and that's the main goal really, the main achievement for me! I can wean myself off the other things and down to 3 shakes alright and hopefully the milk and diet coke won't delay ketosis too much as i've had enough of hunger cramps and tummy grumbles!!!

Kelly - a litre mug??? Amazing!!!! I want one!

Good luck all x

Hope everyone is getting on ok! Day 3 of restart not going too bad. Hardly drank any water though and got a dull headache I'm so crap at drinking the water!

Very stressful house at the moment here!! OH is in his last week of uni and has so much work to do and BOTH of his computers have broken! Sods law. I feel really bad for him as his deadlines are on Friday and he has no computer to do the work on now... Poor bloke! I feel a bit helpless but im going to cook a nice SS+ meal and feed him up.

How is everyone doing?

Just think - you're better off having an extra shake than caving in and eating something bad. Well done for that the only thing is, if you want coke make sure it's coke zero and not diet as diet has citric acid in which can knock you out of ketosis but coke zero doesn't so should be fine occasionally. Although some people say it makes them hungrier having fizzy pop! I've never had a problem with it though and it makes me feel fuller haha

I know the 1st few days are hard work. But in no time u will be at your goal weight.


Is anyone else really cold on day 1??? I'm freezing!! I have my dressing gown on with the hood up and I've put the heating on. My hands are so cold that fingers are almost numb!! Lol. Hope this is a sign that ketosis is on it's way!! Sooner rather than later I hope!!

Hey everyone! I'm on restate day 1 and so far all I want to do is eat!! It's so hard this time! Anyway I know I can do it. Stated cd in feb weighing in at 14.10, got down to 12.9 but have gone totally off plan for about three weeks! I'm weighing in at 12.12 today. My overall target is 10 stone but am aiming for 11 stone before trying to concieve again. I have a little boy but sadly had a stillborn baby girl and two miscarriages as well so desperately want another baby. Just got to stay motivated this time!

Good luck everyone!!!! Xxxx

Hi Girls I have really enjoyed reading through the posts to see how we are all doing. Quick catch up as it's been really busy at work today. Today is my day 3 and I've got the muggy head feeling too, slight metallic taste in my mouth but I'm not hungry and I find that amazing.. the good thing about being busy is it stops me from thinking of food.

Have a nice evening ladies and a great day tomorrow.

I know love my mug, I got it from Florida..

I have to agree I HATE the porridge it makes me feel sick. When I was on CD last re-start I actually use to replace a pack with a pack of OSS which I will probably do in a few weeks time as I do get bored easy which makes me cheat!!
I sometimes have a dr pepper zero for a pick me up & I honesty cant have tea/coffee without my skimmed milk..

Yeah I've been cold most of the day, I was wondering if it was all the cold water I've been drinking instead of hot cups of tea and coffee that I normally drink.

I was so cold at lunchtime I made my shake and went to sit out in the sun to warm up.

I feel really tired aswell and my mouth feels quite dry but I have drunk my water . Do any of you guys get these side effects?

 

[tinkerbellsmum]

i've had a headache all day today felt cold and tired so maybe its weather related.
i prefer the shakes to the tetra get so much more in shakes and with a blender they mix really well.
skinny wishes: i'm so sorry about your little girl hun and your miscarriages. i;ve had miscarriages myself and was ttc for 5 years for our son and I know how much pain that caused me but I can't even imagine how bad you must have felt.

 

[sparklychar]

I've caked. Again. Why why why?! Xxx

 

[rubyangel]

charlotte-bless you ! did make me laugh though at "caked". just forget about it,pretend it didnt happen,i find i have to do that ,other wise i can blip for days.
just try again today,you will get there.
well,its the start of day 2 for me,was 100% yesterday,had 3 shakes and a small tuna salad,will do the same again today,then will drop the salad when im firmly in ketosis,hope it wont be too long.
well done to everyone,come on we can do this!!
