The weigh in does really motivate you! I feel really good, I'm on day 6 and getting compliments today so I think it's showing. I suppose I find instead of eating I spend time grooming which helps distract me if I'm flagging.
Stick with it- I've done this before and use whatever you can for motivation until your weight in. I think its important to have non scale targets as well so if you have a low loss week you aren't put off, sometimes those weeks are the ones where suddenly something fits!

Once you get to day 5 you will feel so much better!! Go get some pamper time stuff and distract yourself. Call your pharmacist about what you can use to improve how your mouth feels ( TBH I use sugar free gum but that can put you out of ketosis!). Just hold on to the fact that 3 st in 3 months will be no bother at all!

Having a screaming 4 week old baby is taking it's toll on me though lol but once this first week is over and done with I'm hoping I'll cheer up haha xxx

How are you doing, hope the headaches are gone, I find water helps and just relax with your eyes closed. Day 4, let's keep going, we can do it.

Arty I couldn't do it with a 4 week old- your hormones are probably all still up the left and your body is healing after a major trauma so please take it easy on yourself and ensure that if you need to take pain relief please do!
Tiredness makes this harder so ensure that your partner steps up to help!

Aww sorry you've had the dreaded headaches that most get the first couple of days .. They'll soon pass. Once you get to first weigh in you'll find it gets easier (by no means easy just not as hard) . Like others have said, keeping yourself busy is the most important thing. Water intake is important too, this time I've really focused on it and it's made things 100 times better for me.
If you ever feel like you are going to give up then log on here and read the success stories thread and look at the before and after photos .. It really works and keeps me inspired.
