Don't worry, don't let panic take hold! Be totally honest with Julie tomorrow!! Tell her your fears, tell her exactly how you feel, she's a life coach she'll pull you round to a state of mind where you CAN do it and WILL get past the mental blocks.

There's a couple of lactose-free soups too, if you don't mind having soup!

Good job I don't have work tomorrow, I'm still wide wide awake! I'd forgotten about this CD induced insomnia. Luckily it only lasts a couple of nights! I've also got the sweet taste in my mouth that usually accompanies ketosis, so fingers crossed I'll have a pink stick on the morning. But for now what to do to pass the time???

Im so annoyed this morning still no pink stick and unofficially this is day 5 (officially day 3) so either way I should be in ketosis and I'm not I've tried two different brands of stix too (I don't trust the ketostix so have a couple from work). I know ketosis isnt the be all and end all but I feel better once I'm in the pink. :cry: It's especially upsetting because my mum was in ketosis yesterday, day 2.
Anyway last night I watched Live at the Apollo and read my book until I finally switched the lights out at 3am tossed and turned for a bit longer, then woke up at 7am.
It's a sunny day today so I'm going to wash my car and clean out the inside, I was meant to do it yesterday but it rained.

i tend to get into ketosis quite quickly, so i'm lucky. 2 shakes down and 2 to go. got some different flavours. strawberry, vanilla, cappucino, 1 banana lol. i also got soup and am trying a mushroom one.
i am 13st 7lbs (hangs head in shame)!

Hi Nikki,
If I did the math right, you have about 2.5 stone to lose (I have at least 2). You do not need to hang your head in shame... you are already working on it!
You go girl!

I did thanks Mel, well I washed the car anyway. The garden can wait, it's meant to get hot later this week so I'll do it then.
I'm finally in the pink, I should've had patience this morning, instead of getting cross. It usually only takes me two or three days so this is unusual I just hope it doesn't affect my loss this week, I'd like a decent loss to get me started.
Nikki, I'll post a reply in your diary. Big hugs hun :bighug:xx

:7600: Huh I totally forgot about this..... I got my car insurance renewal letter the other day and although I was expecting my premiums to go up I wasnt prepared for it to go up quite as much as it did. It actually DOUBLED!!!!!! So I rang them up because whats the point of having 10 years no claims if the premium is still going to double when you have a bump. They said that was the best they could offer, did I want to renew today? 
I said hell no, I was going to look around for better, they had the cheek to say I wouldn't find better because of my recent claim, I had a go at them about the whole point of No Claims bonus etc and was told that the premiums would be even higher if I didn't have it.
Anyway I went and had a look for my own insurance, Direct Line has always worked out cheaper in the past for me which is why I've stuck with them for 10 years but they've screwed me over and I managed to get better cover, with the same amount of excess for £25 more than what I was paying last year. The extra £25 was for a guarenteed hire car, which I didn't have with Direct Line. Plus I got a discount for already being an AA member.
Even if I hadn't have found anything cheaper than Direct Line there's no way I was staying with them if thats how they treat loyal customers. But I was stunned to find that almost all the companies on the price comparison website saved me £200 - £500. A$$holes!!!!!!:flamingmad:

Exactly!! Mine shot up to £970 from £500 fully comp. Plus Direct Line said I couldn't protect my no claims any more, but the AA have let me, even though they know about the claim. Stupid on DL's part really cos I've told everyone I know lol. And a few people aren't renewing with them, my bro included
