Hey Fran! Long time no speak?! I've been rubbish and been checking in and out of here, but not posted for weeks.
Congrats on how well you are doing! So, so proud of you. If my sums are correct that is 31lbs?! You must be noticing a difference now and so must other people?
I am heading over to my diary in a bit to write a nice long update post filling in the details of the last few weeks. x

Well done on the 3lb loss hunni! And 31lbs in total! That's amazing!
And thank you for that advice the other day! Could feel myself failing before I even started! but I feel much better about it all now!
I start "officially" with my CDC on Wednesday, but I have enough CD products here to start properly tomorrow. So I'm going to have a meat only BBQ in the sun today and then start tomorrow!! I will keep a little diary/note of this for my CDC.
Anyway - I'm hijacking your thread again! lol! Hope you've had a good weekend, here's to a fab CD week for you xxxx

Hey Fran! 10 weeks till you hols and 10 weeks time will take me up to pretty much a year away from my wedding. So I'm throwing down the a duel....(well not really cause it won't be a competition), but I'll go for 30lbs with ya! That's put me at 15st 8.8lbs! I actually don't ever remember being that weight.
And....that would mean I can tick off goals 2,3,4 and 5 in my sig! And then I can set some new ones...yay!

Hey hunni,
How are you? I'm stopping by to say I'm feeling much more positive today! I know I WANT to do it now so going to try no matter how hungry I think I am!
I went to the doctors this morning for the results of my thyroid test, it showed low levels but within normal so i'm not going to receive any treatment for it. So I'm all ready to start CD!
My doctor wasn't impressed and wouldnt sign the form there and then so I had to point out that it wasnt for "permission" it was just her signature to confirm that the medical details on the form were correct! She said "give it to reception and i'll have a look at it!"
I phoned my CDC devastated as I thought this meant I couldnt start til the form was signed....but she said she'll treat it as if she IS going to sign it and I can start from today, if its not back in a week we'll take it from there! She's even willing to phone up the doctor as she's a patient of the same surgery and lost 5 stone doing CD and has kept it off for 3 years so she said she'll point this out to them and that they signed her form!
So I'm on my official day one! No more practising! And I'm one shake and 500ml of water down!
Oooh I blended my shake today in the smoothie maker and it was bloody delicious! The banana flavour with 8 ice cubes and 250ml of water and it comes out all fluffy! Tastes just like something naughty from Mcdonalds! Ha ha!
I'm not working today so I've got to keep myself busy to keep my mind off food! I'm going to nosey on here for awhile to keep me inspired then going swimming tonight so that should help!
Hope you're Ok?

Yes, weight gain was as expected really. But to be honest I am lucky not to have put it all back on the way I have been carrying on. I've got weigh in tomorrow night, still doing SW. So I am hoping I have turned it around to a STS position not a gain. Then I can crack on with new weight loss again!
30lb is 10 weeks, perfectly doable I reckon! You're on missus!

Hey Frannie,
How are you doing?? I'm not going to lie to you I am feeling like **** and so hungry!!
I know its because I havent drank enough water but cant make myself drink anymore :-( i'm 2 litres down and going to try and keep on guzzling!!

Have fun in work! I too, find it easier in work, no food around to tempt me!!

Me too!!
Woop woop!! 30lbs down here we all come!!
I'm off work today.....which is good because I get to spend time with Bella in the sun but bad because I don't get paid! (I'm a primary school teacher - but work on supply!) and also I'm more tempted to cheat whilst I'm at home - too much yummy food around!!
But after the 4.5lbs loss last night I'm feeling much better about this!
I'm going to have my first porridge in a min....which of the CD's products are your faves??
So far I've tried the following and liked them all!
-Porridge Apple and Cinnamon
-Strawberry shake
-Banana Shake
-Butterscotch shake
-Tofee and Walnut Shake
And they've all been yummy!! Especially made in the blender with ice!! (for the shakes!)
I've got even more of a mixture this week, shakes, soups, porridges and tetra's!
She didn't give me mint choc though :-( and I forgot to ask! So I'll have to ask for that next week as I wanted to try it like hot chocolate before bed time!
Anyway, I'm hijacking your thread again!!
Keep it up today!! Speak soon xxxx

Hey Frannie!!
Just wanted to say a massive thank you for all the support you've given me on here and facebook!! You've really got me through these 3days!! I would be bag on the big macs, chips and chineses if it wasnt for you being on the end of the phone! (I use my iphone for facebook! lol!)
I bet you've lost more than 1lb this week Frannie!! I reckon 3lbs+ for you!! and 5lbs next week!!
Are you counting today's losses towards the challenge?? Don't count my 4.5lbs anyway, I'll just always be a few days behind you all! So count my loss on Tuesday instead!! IT'S GOING TO BE A LOSS!! I'm determined!!
BTW, my mind set has totally changed now! I went to the theatre and avoided food, minstrels and other goodies! Even though my mum was trying to convince me to jack it in and go for a meal! SO frustrating!
So now, no matter how hard it is, i'm doing this properly and 100%!
Here's to me catching up with you!!
I should never have skipped that last CD product tho, the nearly blacking out / going dizzy was so frightening!! Am going to go to CDC tonight if I can to get some ketosticks, I THINK i'm in ketosis as I'm feeling quite lively, am not hungry (no headaches or nasty side effects!!) and I have the oh-so-lovely haleketosis death breath!!
I've got work today but only half day, so start at 12.00pm! I wanted to get lots of water in before work - but if I do that I won't stop peeing! And I'm working with infants today and can't really pop off to the loo!! oh what to do! lol!
Good luck for today and for WI!
