Thanks guys... well a little update, lost another 1lb.. so half a stone in 5 days, reckon thats not too bad... AND I went to my CDC today 
Told her that I was going to keep an open mind and do SS as long as possible, with the view that when I've had enough (if I haven't reached goal!) I will switch immediately to WW without a binge in between haha! She suggested I do add a meal for a week before hitting WW which makes sense to me, so I will do this....
And girls my CDC suggested having a pair of jeans to aim for (that is easy, I have a pair of Karen Millen jeans that I have only worn 4 times as I always put on weight as soon as I get my ass in them..maybe they're jinxed... or maybe it has something to do with eating lol!).. anyway when I actually get to squeeze my ass into said jeans I should wear them (whenever possible) when eating out or eating in I guess, whenever a large meal opportunity presents itself basically so that when that uncomfortable feeling hits I have to grin and bear it, rather than adjusting my belt or getting into something stretchy.. so that rather than stuffing my face and then slipping into something more comfortable (I don't mean sexy undies obviously I mean slouchy PJ's!), the growing tightness of my jeans will make me more aware of what I eat and when I am putting weight on... since clearly I can't be trusted to weigh myself regularly or if I do actually pay attention and take heed of the weight gain!
Anyway as I type this with belly rumbling away, I am actually pretty positive, as my CDC says I know I can do it as I've done it twice before, I just need to stay motivated. Had 3 shakes already today, belly rumbles rumbles rumbles, time for another I think, today is one of those 4 shake days... but hey its better than fish and chips (obviously in diet terms, in reality everyone knows that is a complete lie!)

Okay, so its a week since I started and I am...... 15st 13lbs... so 9lbs lost, which I should be happy about, but it is the lowest weight loss I have ever had on Week 1 of SS!!! The first time I lost 10lbs and the second time I lost 12lbs.... but I guess I should be happy, 9lbs off is better than 9lbs on lol.. and yay I'm in the 15's!
So my next goal is the 14's, don't think I can do that in a week, but 2 weeks I should be in the 14s if I'm a good girl.
Mum and dad are cooking haggis tonight for my sister and her b/f, I am sooooooo jealous.. I think I will take Tia an extra long walk in the dark!

Down to 15 st 11 lbs, still going strong, despite my fat brain telling me to eat! I have avoided all of his evil suggestions and ignored my rumbling belly! It is ridiculous that my belly is rumbling I am in ketosis, I shouldn't be feeling so hungry!
Anyway 3lbs to go and I've lost a stone... hope I can do that before the two week mark, as I hope to lose nearly 2 stone in the first month......

Now last night I was a tad naughty but not in a truly terrible way... I had a piece of gammon, that was it, just gammon, not a bit piece either, it was left over from the meal mum cooked and I couldn't resist, it is at least protein.. albeit a bit salty.. she had cooked it in healthy way though... anyway I justified it to myself as you can see!
Today I have just been to the gym.. and this time when I say the gym... I actually mean the gym rather than sat in KFC car park stuffing my face!!! I am trying to get back into the good habits I had when I joined the gym in December... the times when going to the gym meant exercising and not sneaking food.... anyway I have done a 2 1/2 mile run/walk as I really want to get back into my running, half the reason I put on weight (the other half being over-eating obviously!), is that I stop running... when I am feeling good and thin, I run and then alcohol and food take over in importance, including the inevitable hangovers and required fry ups and therefore the runs get put to one side and then I find myself weeks down the line a non-runner... so anyway I did run/walk - 1 minute run at 6mph pace, then 2 min walk at 3.5mph pace, repeated 10 times
Of course when I did this mini marathon (as I like to think of it), I hadn't consumed any shakes and I got back from the gym feeling a tad light-headed! Just had a CD Porridge and feel okay now.. after the run I did a mile on the exercise bike too.. think I will miss that bit out until I have been on the diet for another week or so, when my energy levels rise!
No dog walking today (hence the eager trip to the gym) as my dog has a poorly shoulder, and I have been walking her on the lead only for the last two weeks, combined with the tablets the vet gave me, but since she can't walk calmly to save her life I think a day or two of complete rest may help considerably.. of course she isn't too good at resting completely either, and is currently tearing around the lounge with her teddy in her gob!
Anyway I have digressed, weighed myself first thing today and I still 15st 11... so no loss since yesterday but then I did have that piece of gammon!

Have lost a stone in 2 weeks ... v happy with this, even though I still have a rumbling belly! Last night was terrible! Not much better this morning actually.. sounds like a mini earthquake! Have appointments this morning so will wait until after for first shake and hopefully having them later in the day means less rumbling tonight!!

Emma.... I'm starving Clothes are baggy.. but I'm starving... its not right I'm not supposed to be hungry, I never was the last two times.. maybe my body is rebelling and saying Oi not this again lol
Hope you're doing well on your new WW one, I think I may join you in two weeks on it... will see how it goes.. I'd be less hungry on WW which is ridiculous really, since normally not at all hungry on CD SS

I drink 2 1/2 litres a day, the first two times on CD I used to drink 3-4 litres.. but I really can't handle the constant wee breaks! I never get any work done lol!
Not been so hungry today so maybe my tummy is finally getting used to being empty!
Glad day 1 went well, will look for a diary later then. I will stick to it as long as I can, but I think it will only be a few weeks before I switch over.. its way harder this time round (and I think I said that last time too!)
