Lozzypop's Diary

[Lozzypop]

So it's the night before my first weigh in and all of a sudden I'm nervous .

This is only my first week so I'd hate to sound too chipper and up myself but so far its being going great.

The first three days that my CDC warned me about weren't bad, had a bit of a headache but apart from that I was fine.

The second day I was on CD I went to KFC with my friends and had water, I work in McDonald's at the weekend and sat in the crew room with all my friends eating away while I had my soup and tonight I bought my friend a take out and sat with it all the way home until she stopped to eat it.

I have so much weight to lose though that the very prospect seems a bit daunting, I can't really believe that I won't eat proper food for months.

I guess that's why I'm doing this diet, I can't seem to do things in moderation so WW never really worked for me but tonight I'm sitting in the library at uni, trying to do some of my dissertation and before all I did in the library was do work and eat.

I guess I'm just nervous that my weight loss isn't going to be big enough tomorrow to make me feel like it's justified. I've managed to keep off the scales all week although the temptation is nearly killing me

Congrats on staying strong! Im on Cambridge at uni too and found it very hard at first with twelve people cooking in the kitchen twice a day but now Ive got through and got my first weight in today and had lost a stone so pleased, good luck with your weigh in let us know how it goes!

 

[Lozzypop]

Woo just had first weigh in and lost 15lbs and 13.5 inches soooooo happy

xx

 

[LilyPotter]

That's an amazing loss!! Well done. I'm just getting ready for my second weigh in tonight. I've not cheated so I'm hoping it's good xx

 

[Lozzypop]

Thanks guys, I'm really really tired tonight but still well happy about today's weigh in, definately gave me more motivation to stick to it.

Went round my mates and sipped my water while they all ate sweets and crisps and chocolate...MARS BARS for goodness sake!!!

Still off to bed for me and hopefully still feel good in the morning

 

[Lozzypop]

I'm being ridiculous...I know I am but I can't stay off the scales and there's been NO CHANGE between yesterday and today

My brain is like Lauren...you lost 15lbs yesterday....calm yourself but I just want to stamp my feet and be like noo!! the numbers HAVE to keep going down because I've not cheated or anything

oh well....like I said I know I'm being ridiculous...just those all important numbers

 

[Krissykat]

Thats a brilliant first week loss! One of the best I've seen on here
Just shows how strong you are as you were able to resist all that food that you have been surrounded with the past few days, well done!

 

[Sapphireblue]

sadly, once you're past the first week you won't see a change on the scales every day, but possibly every other day, or you might have a whoosh part-way through the week.

either way, the average loss is 3-4lbs a week. that's still faster than any other diet! have faith, it is working.

 

[infiniteandserene]

That's an amazing loss! So happy for you

 

[Lozzypop]

Actually could have killed the customers tonight...this working in McDonald's malarkey is turning into pure torture

 

[Lozzypop]

Had an interview today, really hope it went well. In other news, I'm tired and I miss food lol.
Going to a club tonight with all the girls from work...water and driving it is...

Boo just feeling sorry for myself Trying to focus on the fact that I'll not be hungover tomorrow

 

[Krissykat]

I went to a cocktail bar in london and drank water all night but still had a really great time! I'm sure you will too, and atleast you aren't stuck indoors of a friday
But whatever you do don't drink any alcohol while you're in ketosis as its really dangerous x

 

[Lozzypop]

Survived the night, had a great time and wasn't even bothered sitting in the chinese with them after .
However, the amount of strange looks you get in Glasgow when asking for water in a club :-\ lol. Feeling really positive today, actually sat and made a plan so I'm hoping to do SS until April, when I'd have to move up to 810 anyway so that I can move up the steps in time to be able to eat/drink properly for my graduation.

Ah well done!

 

[Lozzypop]

Developed a new slightly worrying side effect? The smell of food is actually making me sick just now...like I walked into the kitchen and could smell the curry my parents had last night and I swear if I'd had anything in my stomach it would have made a less than graceful exit into the sink...anyone else experienced similar?

They probably thought you were on ecstacy!

 

[Lozzypop]

This is an official warning that the following entry contains a huge pity party


It's the night before my second weigh in so I'm hoping the results tomorrow will banish these types of thoughts.

I've only being doing SS for two weeks and I'm feeling generally sorry for myself....and today for some strange reason I'm really hungry but as I mentioned in an earlier post the very smell of food is making me sick just now...which I suppose and is a good deterrent for cheating

My plan is to do SS for the twelve weeks then when I have to move up to 810 just keep moving up the steps so I'm completely off the diet for when I graduate...but it seems reeeeallly far away.

But I'm sitting in my aunts house, with my family, as they discuss where they want to go to the chinese, chippy or indian for dinner...:cry:

Also its my TOTM so that's making me generally miserable anyway

I kinda feel like that because I don't have a 'proper' reason to lose weight, like I'm not getting married or trying to get pregnant...I just want to look good when I go clubbing with my friends and for when I graduate.

Ughhh...sorry to anyone who persevered with this drivel...I'm going to have a shake now..woo...

Oh btw, question...when do you guys have your shakes? I think I might be leaving too long between them all?

xx

 

[leannon]

Hi lozzypop, I have loads to lose too!! About 10 stone actually and just like you I feel like its so far away!
You really are doing so well though- there is no way I could go through all that temptation! I graduated last year and I am so disappointed in my photos so just think how wonderful you will look in them!!
Good luck with your weigh in!!!

 

[Lozzypop]

Thanks leannon I'm usually positive just feel crappy today

Still if this diet takes 6ish months, its six months out of my life...I'm only 21 I have plenty of time to eat and drink and socialise..

 

[Lozzypop]

Ok I feel so much better after having a shake and ignoring my family and their take outs. Always used to feel bloated and just like ughh... after having one anyway.

I'm definitely leaving too much time between the shakes. Got to sort this out. Maybe bars/ready made cartons would be better for when I'm at uni cause I'm too embarrassed to make up the shakes/soups lol
