Right, 1 more try at this diary thing as I think itl keep me going! Didn't have much luck with ppl replying last time so gave up!

I've had a roller coaster of a ride on this diet but I've lost 33lbs in 10weeks which I am very happy with!
I have cheated a few times but got back on it!
As for this weekend, omg what. Pig!
For some reason I gave myself a weekend off, worst thing I could of done! I feel fat, bloated and angry with myself!
Today I'm starting back and seeing if I can just do ss Instead of ss+!

Feel alot more motivated now tho which is what I wanted and needed!

So when I started dieting last August I'd just had my baby girl!
I tried weight watchers and lost 9lbs in 6montjs which isn't great! I was bridemaids aswell and I looked dreadful!
After seeing the weddig photos I decided to start thR cd after Xmas which I did!
I started cd at 13st 2lbs and am now 10st 12lbs (prob more after this weekend)
So am pleased with how I'm doing!

So starting ss as from today!

Wish me luck x

Hi Rebecca, good luck with your getting to target. I think you're probably right to go with ss - I did CD before and found that ss+ made me more likely to cheat! I think it's probably fine for people who start at a higher weight as they will use up the extra carb. I did (and still do have) a couple of cups of tea with milk every day and 1 meat and veg meal a week without any problem but any extra carbs just makes it hard!
Sounds like you're doing well so far - don't beat yourself up about your blip over the weekend. It's done now and at least you've got back on it. Just try to keep it in mind how awful going off plan has made you feel to try to avoid doing it again.
I saw lots of people posting that they were going to have a weekend off this week for mothers day but am so glad I stuck with the low carb thing - much easier to say no to potatoes and dessert yesterday than it would have been getting back on it today if I'd had them :)
 
Hi Rebecca... Well Done with ur weight loss so far, u have done fantastic.
I have just started CD and have found the diary good. People not on CD dont really understand so good to come on here and talk to people that know what u are going through.

Keep up the good work :flirt2:
 
I agree - people who haven't done a vlcd really don't understand how it works. Come on here if you need advice and you'll get plenty of support and help keep you on track. keep it up and you'll get there for definite x
 
Well done so far and good luck with your journey,
Day 1 for me, I did it years ago but fell pregnant and have gained steadily since.
Somehow I feel the time is right now, well I do today anyway!

Thankyou for your replies!
It isn't easy is it but it's sooo worth it!
Have had a great day today, 3 shakes 2.5l of water and 1 nibble of chicken which I thought isnt too bad!
Just got back from the gym ad swimming!
Burnt off the crap I ate over the weekend lol!
Went swimming with my best friend and didn't realise what a perfect body she's got! Made me feel like a whale lol! But had made me more determined to be like her!

We have recently bought a 9 seater jacuzzi for our garden so will e having parties alot more lol but I can't have all my skinny toned mates walking about and me fat and flabby!
I'm so much more determined! I'm gonna get this last 1stone off!

The only thing I'm not liking are my stretch marks from having my little girl!
Had her 10months ago and got them on the front of my tummy and some on my hips!
They have got better the smaller ive got and are silver but they won't look very attractive in my bikini! But at the end of the day I have had a baby and that I'm very proud of!

So... Lol I've had a good day and got it all off my chest!

Going walking with my baby today! May even have a dip in the jacuzzi!

Hope ur all doing well!
I'm looking forward to what today brings! Bring it on xx

Well done - water weight does go off pretty quickly :) Do you take a fibre supplement? A good tablespoonful of psyllium husk (you can get it in health food shops or some chemists or online) can help prevent constipation, as can drinking even more water lol. Even so I still have to take a couple of senna tabs once or twice a week to help things along, but better than getting blocked up :(
Keep it up and you'll definitely have a good loss this week :) x

Aww, sorry to hear little one isn't well and hope she feels better soon. It usually clears up quickly when you use the chloramphenicol :)
You're doing really well - that's a good loss. Maybe a good idea to chew some gum when you're making food for others? I found it helps stop me nibbling without even thinking about it :) x

That sounds like a good idea, never thought of gum, sugar free I assume?
Yer we got antibiotics today and it seems to be clearing already but fingers crossed! She's not unwell in herself just keeps squinting and rubbing her eyes :-(

Thankyou, just finding it hard to get the last stone off!

How are u doing x

So annoyed this morning! I got on my scales and they say 1lb heavier then yesterday! I havent been toilet for nearly 2 days (tmi) so could it be that? Has this happened to anyone else?

Did nick a sausage or 2 of my fiancée last night :-(
Think I've decided I'm not gonna weigh myself til Sunday, that's my official weigh day!
