shrinking for the school reunion, and forever.

[cable]

Well i am finally making the jump over from s&s, firstly a bit about me i am mum of 4, and have a grandchild, happily married and fed up of always being the fat one, weight was never an issue until i hit my 30s then i found i have to watch what i eat , (which i havent always done) , thats why i am here.
i have tried s&s which does work but the minute i came off the weight started to creep back up, my hubby hated me on it as we go out alot and its so not sociable, it was him who has been urging me to try juddd his workmate does it and he says it has changed his life , so here goes...any tips would be greatly welcomed.
oh today is a down day for me, i have read the book i sat and read most of last night, thanks sonia, i will be using all of my leftover packs from s&s on my down days until they are gone that is.

Hello and good luck, I look forward to getting to know you. xx

 

[cable]

[hannata]

I think I am doing ok, trying to keep upbeat about the plan and totally loved my first UP day, my first DD was a bit challenging but I think i did it wrongly I had my first low cal meal early and I was ready to eat my leg in the evening LOL. So today my second DD I am changing the strategy (I sound like a war big wig), have the first meal when I feel very hungry and that time is not here yet and is 13.22. I have a lot on so that will hopefully distract me once I get off these boards LOL, gosh sorry for the war and peace bet you wish you never asked
How about your first DD? how do you find it?

its going ok, seeing as i came from a vlcd its no different to a normal day on that , i will be haing the 2nd shake about 3pm and last at 7pm.
I think tomorrow will be a toughie i need to stop thinking i will have a gain when i eat, i am still going to try and eat healthy calories on an up day not trashy ones justy make up the numbers.
Gosh this will make the weekends and nights out with friends so much easier i did struggle with socializing big time. this is so much better than a diet i want it to be a way of life from now on.

Found you!! Good luck hun, think juddd will be great for you xx

I feel the same minus the scared bit, I do not fear the scales and I am prepared to give this my all for a full 5 weeks then asses and yes being able to eat with friends without explaining yourself all the time will make all the difference.

oh yes definitely, i hated having to say oh i cant have this or this, plus the fact i really enjoy my food, i am happy to forego a few days off to really enjoy the good up days.
i think i am going to skip my last shake tonight and just have a bowl of salad, do you think it matters if i dont fulfil my full cals on a dd?, to be honest i could just have water on a dd .

I have been doing JUDDD for just under 2 weeks and I also moved over from SnS. At first I only had water on my DDs as I found that easier, but on the second week I decided to eat my calories that were calculated on the JUDDD website on a DD, and I have lost weight more quickly since actually eating something on a DD. My DD calories are 383....
