Hi I started on step 3 last Friday. I would have gone on SS but my medical profile prevented that. I really needed a break from food so my consultant suggested 4 foodpacks plus 2 pints of skimmed milk per day.
I chose a variety of foodpacks avoiding flavours I knew I didn't like. I'm working on porridge for breakfast, shake for lunc
h,soup for dinner and a
bar for inbetweens. I make the shake up with milk, add milk to the porridge. I chill the bars and slice them into little pieces.
I thought I would be starving but am not, so far at least.

Go for it and good luck.

 

[kerrys86]

Ooh bet shakes taste lovely with milk!!

Hi gafia, have you had a weigh in yet? Sounds like ur doing fab!

 

[Gafia]

Hi Dids, my weigh in is on Thursday morning. I couldn't resist getting on my scales this morning and between Friday morning and today I have lost four pounds. I need to go to the supermarket so I'll hang on to that thought!
Actually I don't feel hungry at all this morning, but I've had half a portion of porridge as I believe it's important to eat regularly. I've got a bit of a challenge tonight as well as I'm in a choir and we have time off over the summer and it's our end of term party complete with lots of food. I'm going to make sure I eat just before I leave the house!

 

[Dids123]

Wow 4lb since Friday?! Fab! I've had my first shake this morning tasted ok ) planning on having chicken and rice this evening, which reminds me I must get chicken out the freezer! Just stay determined and imagine how good you will feel tomorrow having resisted the food x

 

[Dids123]

Well so far so good! Shake was ok, had green salad and fruit at 13.00ish and just had chicken and mushroom soup which was surprisingly yummy!!!

 

[Dids123]

Hi - does anyone have any recipe ideas??

 

[vampykat]

Hi I'm on week 2 starting on stage three... Does stage three work as well as stage two?

 

[Dids123]

I'm only on day 4 so can't really comment, I just didn't feel ready to ss! Weigh in on Monday so will let you know )

 

[vampykat]

Thanks please do. I feel less bloated today as well as less hungry so hoping for a loss tomorrow.
