I'm good at kicking up a stink to get people to do what they're supposed to do, comes with having special needs kids I think as I need to shout to be heard a lot when it comes to them! Only way is to keep on their backs about it or they will just keep fobbing you off. As for the sprouts, it lists brussells on the veg bit x

Hey! Priya I have just read (skim read I confess) you diary thread and it has really helped distract me! You are doing brilliantly! Keep going! I must confess I'm a dinosaur when it comes to text speak even though I have a 17 year old son and I found I really had to concentrate following your posts but it really completely made the pangs or restlessness I was feeling! I will most definitely be following your journey if that's ok.

By the way I am Indian and I totally understand the Indian mindset of my mum's generation of feeding and asking three times if you want to eat something and then when you don't decline saying things like "no wonder you can't lose weight you are always eating!" Not helpful at all, so your approach in keeping it to yourself is a good one.

My pennies worth on daily weighing, don't do it if you are at risk of it making you quit. Scales go up and down even doing any vlcd 100% and even weighing at exactly the same time of morning post pee etc naked and the scale placed exactly at the same spot! Yup! Been there done it - er! I am still a daily weigher though! If I stop weighing i lose focus. Not long until your weigh day so keep going. You've had great support and advice from everyone, just love Minimins!

Meant to add about exercise. Don't do anything strenuous not until you really are in the swing of it used to fewer calories. I did a few weeks and then started at the gym with a personal trainer and I had to have whey protein or extra shakes on the days I trained otherwise I felt I was going to collapse.

Just stopping by to say hi. You are doing fantastic . And I'm glad you got your money back. Some landlords/agents can be a right pain in the a hole.

Coke zero doesn't contain citric acid, so it is safe to drink but I remember when I last did S&S they said to limit it to either one can (330ml) or 500ml a day I think as it can kick off cravings for some people. Although some people do drink more daily and have had no problems with it so guess it varies. I even read somewhere to limit it for the first week or two as it can make getting into ketosis take longer or something, not completely sure now as it was quite a while ago. When doing S&S before I would have the odd coke zero or dr pepper zero (also doesn't contain citric acid) to get me through! Tasted so gooood what with drinking water all the time. I just didn't drink great amounts of it.

I'll be joining you soon. Need to get rid of some weight without having to worry about counting calories etc like on other diets which just does my head in sometimes.

I have no idea how to do a link to my diary but it's called "back to the business of weight loss" I do change it from time to time and it's in the Silver Members section.

I'm from Newcastle though live just outside in Northumberland.

The text speak certainly helps me concentrate so much I am well distracted!

I'm counting today as Day 1 as I messed around last week trying to get back into it and Monday is weigh day for me.

glad you your mum is supportive as it does help having all the support one can get. I'm very excited for you as weigh in is around the corner for you and I'll only just be getting into ketosis!

[Starlight]

Phew Im glad Im not the only one who struggles with text speak. I find I have to almost read it out loud

Ok madam unanimous decison - stop it :whoopass: :giggle:


Glad to see the scales are going down for you, its all that keeps us sane on this diet at times

 

[Kira]

LOL! I am the same Starlight reading out aloud almost! But I kind of get it now!

Priya, get your ex out of your head! You are wasting time even letting him enter your thoughts. Plenty more lovely men out there for a gorgeous young girl like you. You have 2 sleeps and then weigh day! I know you will lose weight as anyone who sticks to plan always does. Try on what you were wearing the day before you started or something that was snug or tight. See how that feels today or tomorrow. Scale numbers can vary for all sorts of reasons so don't let Thursday's weigh in the the sole factor you deciding to continue with SnS or not. Look at the results others have got by sticking to it. (I should listen to my own advice more often I'd have been at goal the year I joined minis and maintaining if I had!)

Lmaooo i at time forget how i type on here myself purely out of habit...honestly tho i am really sorry and i promise i am trying as i am here rite now lol...i dont the change the words round that much do i? I onli at times change a letter or two in the word...lol i think to try and make the word shorter loolz...trust me the scales and the inches...and compliments or positive comments on how i am lukin hehe xx

 

[CornishTT]

Agree with both, keep going and but don't let just your first loss determine if you continue or not. Reason being, you've done the hard work now by sticking with it for this long and if you've done it right (which it sounds like you have) you'll be in ketosis. It'll be much easier now as hunger subsides!

Re tablet selling, have you tried Gumtree or ebay? You have to pay some fees but I would say you'd get a better price than going to a pawn shop, etc.

And as for ex, phew, hugs, we've all been there and hope it sorts itself out soon.

As for the text speak, I guess it's a generation thing, i know texts from my sis and bro (both in 20's) are the same. I don't mind it hun but i guess it is easier to read when not text speak. x
