Princess podge day -1 and counting...

Well its been a long time coming, and after a silly 2 week daliance with exante about 4 months ago when I was still breastfeeding and in the process of moving house - here I am again on the eve of another VLCD attempt.
'Just do it the proper way' say my family and friends 'Just watch what your eating and do some more exercise'. Sure, yep, defo thats what I will do! LIKE I'VE NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT BEFORE!!!
For me I need speedy results or I get bored, complacent and give in. I know my family are just concerned and are trying to do the best for me - but they have NO idea what its like being almost 10 stone heavier than I should be. 10 stone folks - thats like the weight of an average woman that I am carrying about with me every day. Thats like 2 women trying to squeeze into my jeans, or heave themselves up the stairs on my 2 little overburdened legs! Enough is enough, I don't want to be this person, I don't want to be the person who eats so much they are stuck in theor house, or can't walk down the street. I am 5 foot tall and around 18 stone - that means that around 50% or HALF of me is nothing but fat.
So tomorrow I stop on this road to destruction that I am currently treading, and I set off on another path - a healthier slimmer one. I know that this new path won't be easy for me. In fact I know its going to be really bloody hard at times! But I NEED to do this. I WANT to do this. And I WILL do this.
Amen.

Day 1 almost over. Had red fruits shake, a coconut bar and spicy spaghetti which were all OK, but the mushroom soup at lunch was almost tipped down the sink. Good job that I'm not in ketosis yet as I was so hungry I forced it down lol - won't be having that again! Have been to the toilet about 20 times with all the water that I have drunk. Been on a treasure trail with kids today which involved around a 2 hour walk too - every little helps ;-)
Well done on your loss so far. I know that it might take a while to shift the weight - but would literally take years on any other type of diet - so these first few days of pain seem small in comparison!
Roll on day 2 ........
 
Welcome Princess.

I'm the same as you, i need fast results otherwise i can't stick to it all. I'm on Day 6, my first weigh in is tomorrow. I can't wait to hear all about yours.

Good luck and keep is posted :)
 
Good luck all. I'm similar, I get frustrated dieting usually and then end up sabotaging it in some way. Been doing this 2 weeks tomorrow and lost 1st 1lb so far. Had a little blip on my main meal yesterday (4 new potatoes and a white wine) but back on it today and fingers crossed by the looks of it it hasn't effected the scales negatively and no hunger has returned.
