Start lip tomorrow any advice will be gratefully received

Start a diary in the diary section first of all, it's good to keep you focused and also allows you to rant and is great motivation.

The first week can be hard.. But honestly once you get past it, the shakes are like second nature. You will have bad days. Do not break the diet. As it will put you back to the beginning and you will have to go into ketosis agaiN.

Drink plenty of water.
Focus on goals Non scale as well as scale goals.
Take before measurements and pictures
Log on here if you are struggling
Keep a bottle of water with you all the time
Sparkling water is nice with a few sweetner tablets
Chocolate is nice hot with sweetners
Vanilla is nice with coffee hot and sweetners
Adding pepper makes the chicken soup nicer
Flapjacks are gross
Figure out your food triggers and try deal with the mental aspect of weight gain
Get involved in discussions on here
You will be extra cold.
Keep an eye on bowel movements

There are loads of other threads with advice... Just read a few loads of tips and best of luck...

^^ This^^ great advice curve

only thing I would add is day 3 or 4 can be evil but once you come over the other side it is better and try not to slip as getting back into ketosis is nasty!
