TC's Magical mystery journey to somewhere as yet unknown....

16.04.12 - Started on S&S

Week One was OK with one or two wierd side effects such as foggy brain disease, headaches, total lake of understanding if I was hungry or not, freezing cold one minute, and nice and warm the next. So pretty much all the 1st week symptoms I read about in this forum, so no real surprises.
Towards the end of week one learned how important water is to this diet, I was that dehydrated that I could feel a litre of water going down and then feeling much better over the next half hour so after that been drinking about 4 litres of water per day + the odd cup of black coffee + the water in the shakes.

Weigh in at the end of week one: 21st 11lbs a loss of 11lbs in the first week. Needless to say I am well chuffed.

End of day 12 - Feeling OK, no odd symptoms to report, had a cheeky weigh 1st thing this morning, weight going in the right direction which is good,

Breakfast - Strawberry Shake
Lunch - Chocolate Shake
Tea - 2 Egg Omelette with Mushroom, Spring Onion, Green Pepper and 1 tea spoon of curry power (Sharwood as no sugar in it). Tesco own brand was cheaper but listed sugar in the ingredients.
Before Bed - Strawberry shake.

Such a great loss fellow newbie! I'm hoping for a 3lb loss if that as I'm drinking milk and eating veg but 11lb is mega! Excited for your next weigh in

 

[TC_99]

Thank you, for your kind words. I am looking forward to Monday's weigh in also, good luck with your weigh in too.

Hey

Just having a nosey at some diaries, 20 lb loss in 2 weeks is amazing!! Well done!

I love the cafe latte shakes, not tried the others yet though.

Here's to a successful week 3( I'm on week 3 too) good luck!

Day 17 - All going OK this week. I have been having three shakes and then the 100g protein + Green salad from the list.
Also not been as thirsty this week and have had no odd side effects.
Did ask Rob @ S&S if I could have OXO as a drink (It's a northern thing for you southerners), Rob can back saying that OXO cubes have a lot of salt but he did recommend a few others, here is the list he provided.

How about some of the drinks listed below:
* Tea
* Coffee
* Coke Zero
* Asda Diet Coke
* Dr Pepper Zero
* Bouillon
* Green Tea
* Peppermint Tea
* Tescos own Strawberry Water
* Sainsburys Strawberry and Kiwi Sparkling Water
* Asda Cola Zero
* Sainsbury's Flavoured Still Water (Raspberry & Cranberry, Peach, Apple & Blackberry)
* Sainsbury's Diet Cola
* Sainsbury's Classic Diet Cola
* Sainsbury's Classic Zero

Also I was panicking a little as I was down to may last shake this evening and then the city link guy turned up at 7pm with a further 2 weeks worth of shakes.... pheeew

 

[TC_99]

Forgot to say I have also swapped around when I have the shakes to the following:

7 - 9am Breakfast Shake (Usually Warm Cafe Latte with a couple of extra spoons of coffee for good measure)
12 - 1pm Lunch Shake (Usually Vanilla or Strawberry)
4 - 5pm Tea Time Shake (To stop the crash I was getting at this time of day, made driving a struggle, all OK now though)
7 - 8pm Evening Meal (Green Salad & Chicken or Two egg omelette with Onion & Mushroom)

Today is the 3rd day of doing this and it seems to have solved the 5pm energy crash.
Thanks for reading.

It sure is.... a really great diet. Day 22 for me, can't wait for weigh in on Sunday. Bought some Ketostix from Amazon and test myself a few hours ago and according to the sticks I am not in Ketosis as there was no change in the colour at all. If I was not losing any weight I might be a little perturbed by this, but as they say the scales don't lie.

Also I have read "after i bought them" that they can also be unreliable (PS: Checked they are in date and they are good till 2015). Will have to retest in the morning.
