[sue121]

Well here goes my name is sue and i live in lancashire with my hubby and 2 of my four children.. (two have flown the nest) and my little babies lucy and oli my yorkshire terriers who i love 2 bits!!

I have been ovaweight 4 quite a while now but enough is enough and ive got 2 make some big changes.Im on day 2 of cambridge and im ssing.things are ok up 2 now but very early days.I weighed up the pros and cons of quite a few diets as i did cd last year for about 7 weeks on and off.Anyway i came to the conclusion that cd was the way 2 go 4 me at the moment as i need to take food otta the way so i can try 2 break the yo yo dieting.

My main goal at the moment is 2 get a couple of stones off as i need an op on my shoulder.. i will need help dressing and washing when i have had it done and im so embarassed:cry: and i dont wanna feel this way or dread people helping me so its gotta be done i have 2 do it!!

So im gonna keep coming here and write down how its goin and hopefully stick 2 it ...im really gonna give it my all this time


so im on day 2 and things ok didnt get up till late was up again till 3am cos of pain. im gonna have 2 try and get 2 bed early so i can get up earlier ...anyway ive had a porridge with a tiny bit of choc shake in 2 taste and a tea and 2 pints down. not feeling 2 bad hunger wise but will come back later and update x

[Janey2004]

Well big kudos to you guys, I honestly couldn't do it. Tried it once many moons ago when it first came out (yes I am THAT old lol) but just couldn't stick with it.

 

[sue121]

Well ive just done the wee wee test thought id give it a whirl and yehhhh the k fairy has arrived... just had another 2 pints and ive been the loo bout 8 times well hey i need the exercise lol ..

I keep wanting 2 go and weigh myself and im usually on and off the scales like something possessed but thats another change i want 2 make NOT 2 WEIGH MYSELF 2 OR 3 TIMES A DAY !!!!!!!! ONLY ONCE A WEEK !!

 

[Janey2004]

Often wonder what its like to be in Ketosis, dumb question here, but does it really curb the hunger? Just being nosey, always wanted to ask someone that.

 

[sue121]

Hi again janey well ill be very honest at the moment i am not hungry ...not at all and im not craving anything or wanting anything 2 eat. now its early days day 4 2morrow ... i did cd last year and i battled on and off with hunger, cravings etc .. so i dont know if its that im really 100% focused and really wanting this or if it is ketosis ...i know last time i did cd i cheated a bit with a small amount of protein here and there (chicken an egg) that kindda thing and this time im not going 2.im gonna stick 2 the plan 100% and see if it really does make a difference.So it will be intresting 2 see the resultxx

 

[sue121]

Well last post 4 2day was watchin tv and thought at 11pm flippin heck ive not had my last pack didnt realise the time so ive had a choc tetra pack topped up with hot water ... not bad at all so thats it 4 2day 100% all day again so lets see wat 2morrow brings..xx

 

[Janey2004]

I had a toying thought about doing lighter life for a while but had a good look at it and knew I could never do it 100%(the water thing, really bad on the old water intake as it is) Sending you loads a vibes, you sound like you're really getting there and the right mind set too. think that is a big key whatever plan you follow
