Hello! 
Thankyou for popping in
I saw this section and thought it was an awesome idea! I've made a few blogs in my time but usually end up forgetting about them or neglecting to update, i'm totally hopeless! xD But I thought i'd give this a go instead! So thanks for reading this far. xD
I am Knitty, 21, from South-East England I've been overweight a very long time- actually, since my age digits were reversed xD I've always been the biggest out of everyone I know. I'm not a bad height, so I could always get away with a bit more on me, but it's still horrific how i was twice or three times the weight of my peers in school, and even now, when i'm scared to sit on something in case it breaks! xD
I've tried to lose weight a lot of times. I tried healthy eating, exercise programs, Weight watchers, Slimming world, and it would work for a while, but then i'd falter - I was usually hindered by cravings or hunger and a lack of will power.
I wasn't actually planning to diet this time around, not yet anyway - but my nan showed me a magazine of a girl who had lost an amazing amount of weight on the Cambridge diet! I was totally in awe of her success. So I investigated when I got home, and emailed my now CDC, who is awesome and lovely and who phoned straight up and organised to come and see me in a few days time.
Fast forward a bit, it's been 48 hours on the diet now, i'm into day 3. It's not been too bad so far- I really like the mint shakes and the chicken soup. My hardest time is in the evenings, about 11pm, when I would usually snack, but knowing that I can't have anything until the morning. The first night I just burst into tears when I got into bed, funnily enough, over the fact that I reeeally wanted some Pickled Onion Monster Munch. It's quite hilarious when I think back! xD I told myself that in the future, once I had completed my journey and was back to conventional food, I would have a packet. In sensible portions. Something to aim for? Maybe. xD
So that's where i'm at at the moment! Just trying to get through the first week, and it's absolutely dragging by, but I'm not going to falter because I know if I stop, i'll never get my bottom into this kind of gear again knowing what i'm facing xD My mum is all worrying, even though she was there with me for the meeting with my CDC... which is sweet, and I love her hundreds, but she woke me up 3 times the first night just to check I hadn't, y'know, died or anything xD
Looking forward to my first weigh-in on Friday, I think that'll give me a boost. Thankyou so much if you got this far! I appreciate your time! Point me to your diary and i'll have a read as well. And keep going, ladies and gents! We can do this
