My 10 Week TS Bali Bikini Diet

Eek, I'm still feeling hungry and damn well don't feel in ketosis. Or rather my breath doesn't smell like I'm in ketosis!
A fairly cruisey day today, after clearing the front garden and doing a quick Tesco trip, I sat in the garden all afternoon in the lovely sun.
This evening I shouted Mo Farah home to gold victory, through the TV (not sure I was any help to him!).And am just waiting to see Tom Daley get his medal.

I've had all my packs for the day, but have had a few tummy rumbles this evening. Very strange this far in to the diet.
 
I like that thinking, I seem ok now, although I did have breakfast at about 9am. Am off into Canterbury for a walk about and will have a bar with a coffee somewhere. Im feeling pretty good, can see in the mirror that I've lost weight again.
Glad you had a good evening. What new outfit did you get yesterday?
 
Woweeeeeeeee it was hot today! Had a lovely walk around Canterbury, but why, oh why is it ALWAYS the case that when I've got money I can't find anything I want clothes wise. Today, of course, when I had no spare cash there was so much I would have liked. Hey ho, never mind, the sales will come another time when I can get something.

It's been a nice day, and I am looking forward to watching the Olympic closing ceremony tonight. Just about to have my last pack of the day.
 
What an evening; the husband had a fever, with a temperature of 102° and the dog had an awful eye infection. Both very poorly and sorry for themselves.
Hubby's was due to having had root canal treatment at the dentist on Friday and taking nurofen plus for the pain. The tablets clearly didn't agree with him, but luckily he's feeling back to normal today.

The dog on the other hand, well her eye is looking great after I put diluted apple cider vinegar on the back of her neck!! I read the tip on the net and despite thinking it sounded mad, would have tried anything yesterday. Bizarly I think it's worked!

The closing ceremony was amazing. How did Gary Barlow do that after all he's been through?

I was still struggling with a rumbling tum last night, but seem ok today.
Here's to another good week.

Strange isn't it, and according to this diary totm is still 2 Weeks away so may not be connected.
Am waiting for ketosis breath to return, that makes me feel more at ease!

So much for the cider vinegar to treat the dogs eye infection. It looks sore again, so will get her to the vet after work.
 
Just having my first pack, my body seems to prefer the later breakfast and strangely I find I'm not so hungry when I have it this late.
I am really getting excited again at the thought of how my body will look at the end of this next month, and the clothes I'll fit into. I'm feeling pretty darn happy about myself now, let alone then!
 
I understand all that. I think I can roughly equate it to an eating disorder I struggled with. Every time (other than the first time) I did the Cambridge diet I would get to just about a stone from where I wanted to be, then I would buy bags full of soft, sloppy foods like cream cakes, yogurts, ice cream etc eat it ALL then get incredibly excited about chucking it up.
The only way in which I'm finding a similarity between you and I here is that I was purposely sabotaging my own efforts, because of the fear attached to not knowing how to move on after the vlcd.
This cycle went on for years and years. Eventually I paid for hypnotherapy/NLP and fortunately it worked.
This is my first vlcd since that treatment and I feel completely different. This time, when I finish the vlcd stage, I'm excited about the plan for moving forward, I'm not a bit afraid and I feel as though all my negative thoughts that were so ingrained when it came to dieting, are a thing of the past. I never vomited again on purpose, and I dealt with the years of mental anguish I was storing alongside the hurt of being ridiculed all my life for being fat.

I know that's all well and good for me, I think I'm trying to advocate the benefits of dealing with all those deep rooted feelings associated with your weight, with outside help. Sometimes we need to off load it all to someone unconnected in order to dump that toxic stuff.
 
Good, it's great that we both have that available to us via each other. I think it's a very valuable thing to have in the journey ahead of us and it's another thing I haven't had in the past. I do have that in my husband, but in a different way as he doesn't have a history of being over weight. Ok off to the vet with the hound now.
 
I was thinking the same about the vinegar (and the bill)!
She'll be just fine, I'll cuddle her until she's fighting fit again. Awww, she's a lovely dog.
 
Somehow I've gone from loving banana shakes and hating vanilla to hating banana and loving vanilla! Of course I've got a glut of banana left.

Anyhoo, I've counted up and find I have to order a Weeks worth of supplies for the week before I head to Bali. This is because, although I am aiming to finish TS on 7th sept, I would like to do WS for the week before I go.

Hubby is on the phone to BT having realised they have been overcharging us by a lot of money every month for our TV package. They have admitted it, no reason given, are refunding all the monies owed and have offered the package for a heck of alot less money. No wonder they get so much profit!!
 
Yes, that includes an ultra slim bar every day and 2 shakes. Hadn't thought of using coke instead of water. Wouldn't it be horribly sweet? Wouldn't it over flow the whizzy up machine?
 
Good morning, I am fully into ketosis with the foulest breath ever! This is great for me, just not so nice for anyone else!
Annoyingly, when laying in bed last night all I could notice was the jelly belly and flesh that falls behind my hips and is still to bog off. Usually I can see how little of it there is now, how my hips bones are visible, bit no, I'm now impatient and want to be tiny.
Another month on and I won't be complaining about all that (something else will have taken its place!).
But all is well, I'm fully committed and happy, happy.
 
Ha!

I've just got into (comfortably) a pair of trousers that, last week, were a good 1-2 inches short of meeting together to zip up. Not only that, but they're side fasteners which have always been the bain if my fat life! I find them difficult to do up whilst squidging all the fat into the gap. Not today though, hurrah, I'm feeling rather slinky!
 
Yes, I'm really pleased. It just makes the figures you see on the scales much more real.

well I've left the poor pooch at the vets for her little op. It was awful leaving her, soppy thing!

I saw an old friend whilst there, hadn't seen her in 7 years so was nice to have a quick catch up.
