Last chance saloon ... Again!!

[emms31]

Ok so I've posted a couple of times but have been lurking for a while here and on the CD forum!
So I thought I had been come over and introduce myself at last!

My name is Emma I'm 32 almost 33 and have been extremely overweight all my life but I'm currently at my biggest

I'm not sure how to change my profile or ad my stats from my iPhone but will do this soon.

I'm currently looking to lose at least 7 stone if not more and I have tried just about every thing (as I'm sure we all have). So here I am at lat chance saloon next stop gastric surgery if this doesn't work!!

I can honestly say for the first time ever I'm actually excited about starting a diet
I ordered the starter box which I have already and I'm starting on Monday and I know it's gonna be tough but I'm fortunate to have a wonderfully supportive husband and friends and now here to keep me on the straight and narrow.

Anyone else starting Monday want to be a diet buddy?

HIya have you done a VLCD before or are you a fresh starter ?? positive thinking and determination are all you need ,a long with lots of support from people both at home and on here who know exactly how you are feeling and can spur you on Good luck

First time ever I'm not ashamed to say I'm worried about what to expect

I've done ww sw Atkins and Dukan (which I found the hardest an gave up after 4 days) I just don't want this to be another failure

The biggest success I had was with sw I lost 3 stone on it before but the slow losses just make me lose motivation plus I found it too easy to cheat the system on which is why this appeals to me it's no none sense, no room for cheating and big losses

Positive start, just prepared my lunch and breakfast for work tomorrow and it took me approx 10secs ... That bit I can live with happily

Morning all

Just literally finished my first shake (strawberry) and I'm so pleasantly surprised its gorgeous!

I weighed in this morning and it gave me the determination never to be that weight again

I can honestly say I was dubious about starting this and how I would feel and part of me still is but after that delicious shake I'm not so scared any more

Can't wait for first WI now lol

Good luck on the diet. Once you get into ketosis you will be fine - it will be worth it!

 

[emms31]

What did u have for lunch? I had a bar. Was so nice xx

Chicken soup which was ok and a nice small green salad and celery sticks.

Had half my chocolate and coconut bar and have the rest later after my chilli and veg

No headache yet ... Touch wood but have no energy literally feel like the life is being sucked out of me lol

Day one down I'm now in bed still full from my chilli and leeks! Nursing a coke zero

Had the chilli earlier and although it wasn't inedible its going to take some getting used to.

Really struggled with hunger this afternoon but I know it's all in my head ... Hanging on in there for my big loss (fingers x'd)

Made some oatmeal cookies tonight for tomorrow they smell yummy!

So tomorrow it's going to be banana shake ( want to get that one out the way) veg soup (ditto) and spag bol in some portobello mushrooms hopefully with my cookies as a snack.

Now how do I stop my self from having a sneaky weigh in the morning lol

Ha ha me too. I sometimes feel like I'm repeating myself writing in both! I don't dare to weigh, I don't want to be disappointed. You must feel so good seeing the numbers drop like that. I keep reminding myself that in my last 3 weeks of calorie counting I only lost 3lbs so 1 a week and I should be happy with anything more than that.
Glad you've stocked up! I'm trying the chilli later...bit scared. X
