It's flaming hard but I think everyone stays the same for days. It took me a good week before I moved downwards recently. The thing is to tell yourself it's minor fluctuations of water. We women are really prone to water issues. You're doing really well again now! Your blip is behind you!

Yeah it kinda overwhelms me a bit and I cant really keep up with everyone and how they are doing , life was so much simpler when there was about 5 of us ha ha
Its great though that so many people are finding it , if nothing else it has made vlcd affordable for more people and I think people cant believe the variety , and the fact you can actually have a meal
I suspect some other companies will have to start upping their game !!

Yes vlcd are hard but stick with it as they are only ones to reward our efforts with such good weight losses.
I stayed the same all last week until weigh in day but I now don't get on scales much just once or twice a week max

When I'm not eager to look at the scales every day it usually means I'm on a diet and going off track . When I don't want to get on them at all it usually means that I've blown it and am in denial!

I don't know how you do it LTL only weighing a couple of times a week.
I think weighing in so much for me keeps me on track, keeps me motivated, despite not losing anything for nearly 3 weeks lol I still have the urge every morning and every night lol
My name is Lisa and I am a scaleaoholic!

Yeah Im not worried , I feel so bloated today as Ive just hit totm , and to be fair i havent even been 100% the last 3 days , Ive been picking at ham and cheese as well as my 4 packs
But im going to be 100% from now on because I dont want to sts any longer than 3 days if i can help it
Ive also been putting 3 teaspoons of bran in my porridge 2 times every day which was adding 20g carbs and 160 calories , and Ive cut that out too today
The odd thing is Ive had ketosis breath today but with all the cheating ive been doing the last 3 days and the bran I dont see how that is possible
All the cheats , bran and 5 packs on the first day were part of the plan by the way lol , no really , I just couldnt face going from eating what ever I wanted for days straight to 4 packs so I intended a few days easing myself back in , like someone low carbing for a few days before they get stuck in i suppose
so now the hard work begins again
Ive turned down a day out saturday , as food will be involved and a night out Saturday as food and drink will be involved , I do have a night out planned 11 feb , meeting friends for Italian ad I arranged it so cant wriggle out of that one ,, but will just try to low carb
hopefully by then the plan is to be 10 10 , which means I would have lost 2 stone , i think just seeing 10 on the scales after hanging around the 11s forever and a day will be a major boost
