that was an awful night don't remember it being that bad last time. I had a pounding headache so took myself off to bed early then found I couldn't sleep. Luckily today is my day off so could have a lie in. Woke up with no headache but do have a sore throat so am halfway through my first 600ml of water and thinking what to do today

water one of 6 down so shake then off into town. Need some sawdust for the hammie. Might nip into the pound shop and grab their 6 pack of water, be easier for tomorrow as at the moment I just keep refilling my water bottle and I'm out all day tomorrow. Actually feel OK today

not a bad day at all, no headache, hardly any hunger and feeling pretty good have had some problems though.... made the curry tonight, my first one, very nice but it overflowed in the microwave so scooped it out and put it in my bowl anyway! Made porridge biscuits again and made it slightly wrong but they tasted ok.
Went into my local whittards to get some teas and had the bloke behind the till checking for hidden citric acid but got a cherry tea sitting with me now

thanks Derika we will smash this 99 day countdown! Well back home after a busy day, drunk most of my water, have about 100ml left that I will chug in a mo. Had people ask what the yellow stuff was in my shaker as I drank it in class (no time at lunch :s) told them it was a milkshake and they seemed to be ok with that. Headache creeping back and sore throat still lurking so I think I may have freshers flu
so, more water, a hot meal pack and my bar then an early night

morning fellow s&s'ers hope we are feeling well? On the diet side all going very well, a cheeky weigh shows 6 1/2lb loss but not going to weigh now till monday my weigh in day. The badger mouth is well and truly in and no headache. On the health side though freshers flu is well and truly here, not got much voice left and throat feels like i've swallowed a pack of cheap rusty razor blades. The good side I don't want to eat and I'm drinking shedloads! Never thought about being ill as a great way to shift weight.
Hope you all have a good day, I'm having a pretty slothy day as no lectures but got opticians and prep to do

I too love cheese, so will definitely try the Mac n Cheese, and pour it over some broccoli and cauliflower - that will feel like a real meal!
Diet overall is going well too - I too have been hopping on the scales each day, and they've been moving, but won't reveal until Monday - just in case it starts fluctuating!
Really looking forward to the days ahead once my food pack arrives - I'm soooooooooooo excited - it's like waiting for an early Christmas hamper!

I've no doubt that you can do it - you've done so well as it is already! I have actually felt 'great-ish' today, and drinking the water I am finding really easy.
I think that the longest I've lasted on a VLCD is about 7 weeks, so I've got quite a few days to go until I beat that. I know that the key to this whole diet is how you come off it, regardless of at what weight, and that's my biggest focus this time.
Even if I feel like I'm waning a few weeks in, I'll add sensible food, while still consuming shakes, a little at a time. That way, I shouldn't put on too much, and it will inspire me to get right back. However, right now, I've never wanted to lose weight like I do at the moment, so I'm looking forward to going the whole hog and watching the pounds just melt away!

we will soon be posting our inspirational photos! water just seems natural to me now, I feel like I'm missing a limb if my water bottle is missing/empty. Just trying the mixed fruit water flavouring and I quite like it.
I'm away for the weekend in a couple of weeks but have already told people I won't be drinking, I will take my water bottle and packs but might drop to 3 packs and the protein meal as we are off out for a meal on the Saturday night. By then though I might have lost a stone......
