So I am back again!

aww noo, are you taking any stuff for being poorly? Get lots of rest and LOTS of fluids down you and take some paracetamols if you haven't any cold/flu stuff.

p.s as advised before for ahem movements, don't do the salt water flush, I just tried and wanted to die, it is rank. I just hope I go after all that effort of drinking sea salty warm water!
 
Hahahahaha what was it like?! Rather you than me!!!! I'm glad I didn't do it now haha... Poor sod!

I've been having some lemsip things but I've ran out :( trying to drink water and my mouth is so dry because my nose is blocked so I can't breathe through my nose. Got some decongestant tablets somewhere will have to dig them out...
 
It was awful! The water was so warm and salty and I was doing ok until I had to stop for air, then I kept gagging and the taste mixed with the warmness was awful, my forehead started sweating and my eyes watered, haha!! If I don't poop I'll be pissed that I just did that for the crack!

good stuff! and if you've ran out of lemsip get some paracetamol down you!
 
Feeling a bit better today. Nose is still a bit runny and my ears feel all blocked but loads better than yesterday! So glad I'm ok to go out tonight :) going to have beans on toast in a little while because I need to eat something if I'm drinking! Looking forward to getting back on CD after the weekend, it's a straight run to my birthday with no interruptions so hopefully I can get my butt in to gear and lose another stone in time for my birthday night out :) OH is still at home and won't be back until this evening and I'm missing him :( should be with him on his birthday!! Think I've decided what I'm going to wear tonight (I've attached a pic). I really wanted to wear one of my playsuits but not keen on the idea of getting undressed when I need to pee, so I cut the crotch out of this one and I've sewn it up in to a dress :D going to wear it with tights, a belt, denim jacket and wedge boots. Yay!

Hi everyone! Last night was good! Ended up getting changed at the last minute and wore black shorts, a leopard print silky top, flat velvety Chelsea boots and my leather jacket. Was absolutely boiling in my jacket and couldn't take it off because my top was like a vest top sort of style and I never get my arms out so I was miserable for ages! Then my OH came to the rescue and sent me in a taxi home to get changed haha! Put on a sheer polka dot top with 3/4 sleeves and then all was good again. Luckily we dont live far from the city centre at all. Glad i didnt wear heels or proper dress up because everyone was so casual who were out!! We went to a place in town and watched a really good funk band then there was a Motown night on afterwards :)

Got the day off work today. OH has some Uni work to do and I'm just going to chill out and watch telly. Did loads of housework yesterday so not much to do!

Now ready for my 4 week push to lose as much as possible for my birthday weekend away! I am hoping I can get a stone off and be in the low 12's at least :) fingers crossed! I've been so crap at CD recently, really need to get my focus back. I think the jacket incident last night has made me realise how much my weight holds me back! Seeing all the girls wearing little tops and dresses last night has spurred me on to do it. I want to be able to wear that stuff and be comfortable and confident too!
 
Glad you had a good night in the end x
 
Hi guys! Back at it today. Had really bad stomach ache at work today (wind!!!!). 31 days until my birthday weekend! Really starting to regret not sticking to CD sooner. Would have been loads lighter by now :( oh well!
 
Don't regret it because you'll not make yourself feel any better, I find when I beat myself up I just want to eat and sabotage even more! You've done really well and you can do some massive damage in a full month! I've got just roughly a month till Leeds now so well keep each other on the straight!!
 
I know I can lose a decent amount if I stick to it. I don't really know if CD is right for me anymore, but where else can I lose weight so fast? But when I think about it I'm not actually losing any quicker than on any other diet! I just hate the fact you can mess up just one day on this diet and gain about a million lb and totally undo your hard work for the week.

Starting the 30 day shred tomorrow as its 31 days until Manchester. I've never got past day 3 so I need to give it a go haha.
 
Hmm its a toughy, how much have you lost per week on average? Are you just thinking its not for you because you're telling yourself that and demotivatimg yourself, if you know what I mean? Like if you thought 'right I can do this, one month to blast it' you could possibly be more likely to stay focused and feel happy doing cd? Its allllll in the mind! Haha!
You've come far though, despite what you say about messing about you've still made a big difference!

Ahh good luck, I tend to never get past to first few days either :/! I hate that ***** on the DVD, she's so evil!

I dunno, I've been doing it on and off for so long I bet it averages out at 1lb a week! I've lost a stone so far but it's taken ages. I think it's because Bestival isn't far away and I should have stuck to it, so I've got hardly any time to lose weight now. I can try for 3 and a bit weeks until my weekend away, then it's another 3/4 weeks until Bestival. I don't want to feel huge and disgusting anymore :(
 
Think I'm throwing the towel in with CD. Don't know wether to keep trying or just move on to something else. I'm just so terrified that Bestival will come around in 7 weeks time and I'll still feel huge and miserable! Why do I do this to myself?!
 
Are you sure you're ready to lose weight? I know it sounds stupid, but I went through moths of hating myself, feeling uncomfortable and wanting to be thinner but just wasn't ready for it therefore couldn't keep my mind focused.
 
I think I'm putting too much pressure on myself to lose it quickly! I am really depressed about my weight which reflects in all aspects of my life at the moment. Once I get my diet in control I think everything else will get better for me.

I'm going to start JUDDD tomorrow and stick it out for a few weeks and see what happens. I think it will suit me because I can easily have meal replacements for one day, and then I know I can have whatever I like the next. Going to try and do some exercise too - when I used to go to the gym I remember feeling great afterwards and I think that's what I need right now!

I have accepted that I won't lose as much as I'm hoping for with CD, but I'll be a bit lighter and probably happier this way. I read a JUDDD diary on here of someone who lost 20lb in their first 8 weeks so that's spurred me on a little bit. I'm hoping because I'm young that I'll lose quicker too!

I need a plan which is sustainable in the long run and if I slip up, it's not going to undo all of my hard work. CD is great but its just stressing me out right now!
 
If you can stay focused better on that then definitely try it, and if you find it easier to stick to then you may find that you lose more than you have been on cd! Hope it works for you and don't stress yourself too much, you just need to get focused, feel happy and excited and it'll all come together.
