Morning All
Happy 2014!!!!
Day One!!! Eek!!!
So today is the first day I seem to have woken up hungry lol!! How strange!!!! However I don't even want any food don't want any packs yet either!!!
I'm very excited for the new year. I don't know whether today to have just packs and no protein meal. I'm thinking do this for as long as possible and then when I get protein it will be a treat !! Well actually thinking about it I've got to have protein Tomo when at my mums and on sat when out for dinner. So four packs today and Friday. Then back to four packs from Sunday.
until I feel like I'm struggling then I'll have a protein meal.
Hope everyone's ok and ready for 2014 xxxx

I'm still holding out - mainly because my packs are in the boot of the car and I'm tucked up under a nice warm blanket
lol. Gonna have oatmeal - I know you can make them into a cookie type thing. Will try it as normal but if not will make a cookie to have with a tea then lunch I'm gonna have chilli then dinner spaghetti with mushrooms and then a bar for dinner might try the mint one. Xxx

Just weighed and to say in happy is wierd but I was expecting to see 16.7 at least and tbh I knew deep down I wouldn't be surprised if it was more but I'm 15.7!!! Very surprised. Not happy with that AT ALL but better than I thought!!! So that's my start weight. Feeling better already for not having eaten crap by now would have had crisps or biscuits or chocolate. Just sitting with my tea waiting for oatmeal cookie to cool down - tasted a little and don't think I'm gonna be a fan however I'll have to be - I have 40 packs of the stuff lol !!!

I lurve the oatmeal that's all I have! I like it quite watery maybe I lived in the workhouse in a previous life on gruel
Lol will try it like that Tomo. Hope I like it otherwise I'm not gonna be pleased lol!! Nothing I can add to it either to make it more palatable because I hate cinnamon!!!!!

So tomorrow will be easier than I thought my mums doing roast dinner instead of stuffed potatoes so I'm just gonna have meat and veggies
Also I'm going to make Friday my weigh day so my first week will be like 9 days. But I love weighing on a Friday because it makes me happy for the weekend especially on this diet!!!

Great start - you lost a stone without realising! Lol!!
I'm not keen on oatmeal or porridge as it is but if you like that sort of thing then I'm sure it'll be nice. Sweeteners should help. And maybe chop up a chunk off one of your daily bars and mix it in to melt or sprinkle on top? Maybe a spoonful of the choc/caramel shake mixed in might add some flavour?
I use the porridge packs to make pancakes - might be able to do something similar with the oatmeal??!
Good luck, I hope you find a way to make the next 40 packs yummy!!

Haha I know - bonus!!!
Annoying thing is I haven't ordered any shakes this time. However I might have some left over from last time so will try a few things see if I can make it palatable
hopefully!!! Lol. If not then I'll have to rethink my breakfast - maybe have the bars or something. Or actually might just end up not having brekkie as I know from before when In ketosis I don't normally have first pack until 12ish so could just have savoury packs x 2 protein meal and bar
I'll see. How are you today? Xxx
