Marie's Disney dreams diary

[xxmariexx]

Hi all,

After lurking around everyone else's diary's I decided to start one of my own.

So this is my third time starting a vlcd and it gets harder every time. I had a brief dalliance with weight watchers but couldn't get into it. Think I cant trust myself around food as yet. I am off to Spain for a mini break next Monday and was planning on starting next sat when I got back. That was until this morning when I weighed myself! I know I wont be good in Spain but no point in making it worse by stuffing my face this week too.

MY main goal is a trip to Disney Paris in feb. I will be nowhere near goal by then but at the moment the thought of the rides and turnstiles is giving me the fear.

So here I go again. Todays weight 17.5 and a half . I will be weighing in on a Monday and my next weigh in will be 3 weeks today. I should say my next official weigh in as I cant seem to keep myself off the scales.

Wish me luck x

Hey hun....welcome aboard....you can sit right next to me as promised....

you can do this and just treat your holibobs as a planned break next week....its easy enough to drop that pseudo gain when to hop back on....


I remember when I got on the scales in January and the scales said 17.8....total horror....but I had to do something about it and started out doing low carb with food but then found lipotrim when I realised I was stalling after losing a stone....fought with lipo but just couldn't do it....tried the starter pack for S&S but my mind wasn't in in....so then gained a stone back of the 2 that I'd lost....then I think you know the rest....basically...give yourself a chance...life happens....the planned breaks do give you a rest from the mental gymnastics....as long as you get back on the horse...as you know...I fell off my wagon yesterday but today I'm back on and decided that there's zero point torturing myself...it's not a race....stone at a time hun....that's how I've decided to tackle it with a review at the end of each one....otherwise the big number to lose often sends me into a tailspin and I end up derailing myself completely....but I now know that baby steps as much as the big ones....day at a time hun

i will stop waffling now about my experience but I do hope it helps you know that we're in this together...lets do it!

Got my first product down me, so that's me hopped on.
Was madness planning to wait til next sat. Just stalling and after weighing myself realised I could be up to 18 stones by then :0. A VLCD is hard but being fat is harder so I just need to keep reminding myself that.
Go you getting right back on it today. Bet your still in ketosis.
Thanks for your support . We can do this x

Good luck Marie you're a better person that I am.. I've put 8lbs on since Thursday with all my birthday treats but definitely can't do s&s as my heads not in it... Atkins for me! Here going for a smooth ride into ketosis for us both...

 

[Sammy33]

Yay you have a diary!!!
Welcome aboard the s+s train!! Choo choo chugga chugga chugga!

I had my planned treat yesterday - Carvery dinner and apple crumble. Yikes!! Have gained a pound from the indulgence. Nearly had a cake today at a Halloween party but resisted and stuck to two cups of tea! So I am officially back on the train with ya!! Hopefully you'll have a nice loss this week and can enjoy your holiday then hop back on afterwards and lose anything you may have gained while in Spain.

Let's do this!! One shake down, so far so good!!

I like that for motivation..."a vcld is hard, but being fat is harder" it's our new motto...good one missus

doubt I'm still in keto land coz I'm starving marvin today lol....we'll ride on into the wonderland of ketosis again together...the wheels on the bus go round and round....haha I've lost the plot!

is it Actifry day on Thursday for you? Xx

 

[Sammy33]

Yeah think my wagon road crash threw me out of ketosis too! I'm hungry and can't have a shake as my baby is asleep in the kitchenette and the blender will wake her! And believe me after today's stropathons I am definitely leaving her to sleep off her mood!! (Teething me thinks!)
No bars either!! Ahhh!! Gonna keep chugging the water until she wakes. At least it helps me space out my packs for today!!

Hopefully the ketosis fairy hasn't flown too far away and will magic away our hunger soon!!

I've put on a pound so my target for this week is 3lbs but preferably 4lbs if I can.

Let's do it!!

Looks like we all needed a moment on the other side and we've come through ok as we all have piled back onto the bus rather quickly today...the hunger is immense today and I'm craving toast big time!

poor little bubba...it's horrible when they're teething...I'd probably let her sleep it off too...poor luv.

there's a couple of sites I've used before for low carb stuff that has vcld bars you can get....but the question is can you be trusted to not just live off the bars????. Lol.

 

[Sammy33]

Ooo are you allowed to say which ones? Maybe pm me!! My new order comes tomorrow and I'm very excited about this porridge pancake business! I hope they work!! Xx

Hey your birthdays only once a year and that 8 pounds will be gone before you know it. It's water and glycogen weight as you know. Il no sooner be in ketosis than il be on my mini break to Spain and out it again. But got to be better than stuffing my face all this week too x

Sammy you do know you are the driver of this train . Your brilliant they way you can have a planned treat and draw a line under it. Every time I fall off it turns into a few days bingeing . But, back on the wagon today. Starving.com. Just keep telling myself I'm not going to die, it's only hunger x

You've lost the plot? Haha. I've never known you to have the plot. I too am starving but we won't die from it.
Cannot wait for the actifry. Il need to get an update from my mum. She's getting it from tesco but thinks she might need to order it. Going to have to be handcuffed not to make chips in it. Or sausages. Or roast potatoes.....mmmmm x

 

[xxmariexx]

Ooooh spill. I love a bar (or 6) x

Ooooh spill. I love a bar (or 6) x

This is one....Bars | Low Carb Megastore

 

[xxmariexx]

Ooooh I've been on there. Eyeing up pancakes, cakes and bread. Think I'd eat the lot tho x

PMSL I know I've never had the plot to lose....I do have the odd lucid rational moment...but it's only ever a fleeting one lol.

why is your mum getting it from there? Might take longer! Argggghhhh! Haha!

oh the chips in the actifry battle is a hard one...I've already planned to have some on my planned break just before we jet off to Madrid...is that bad? I mean I will need to line my stomach for all that prosecco and Rioja i will be drinking and be sure that I'm safely out of ketosis pmsl...I am insane!!!!

 

[Sammy33]

Ooo thanks for the link!!
Ok if I'm the driver then we'll need more than three motivational tunes for our bus radio to sing along to!!

Teething baby is not fun. On a plus side she is preventing me from having anything. On the down side I'm starving and fear I may eat my arm off which I'm pretty sure is not on the approved s+s food list!! Xx

Go Sammy!!!

ive decided not to weigh in until next Tuesday as technically I reached and exceeded my October challenge goal on Saturday so I'm starting my November one now...knowing me I will Prob still get on tha pesky scales anyway tomorrow as part of my obsession of naked daily weighing haha! So for me I'm aiming for 3lbs and I will be cool with that...obviously anything more than that will be greatly appreciated

ive had some of those bars on S&S when I've been running low and they've been absolutely fine....just check your carb count as normal....you'll notice that some them seem to be exactly the same! Hmmmmm!
