Bananas said:Well yesterday was a total write off. Could sit here n say I regret it, the food was horrible etc etc...but tbh I think it was needed and man I enjoyed that greasy pizza and the fatty chocolate.
The important thing is that I get back on it today, I managed last week but maybe that was easier as it was planned. I'm not sure.
But here goes...

Still having trouble.
Fine during the day but really struggle when at work through the night. Drank loads but had a biscuit which turned into a few biscuits
Didbt enjoy them this time.
So I'm going to take a little break as I'm not wanting to waste my packs with false starts. Feel like such a failure but my mental health ain't great just now.
You are not a failure at all please don't think that. You're trying to do something which is the most important thing. It takes a lot to stick to a VLCD and it's normal to have little wobbles but don't worry, you will get back into it when you're ready.
What do you work as? I haven't had to do any nights yet whilst on S&S but I'm definitely not looking forward to that as I rely on sugar to get through a night shift!
You have your packs now so when you're ready just start again
Thinking of you hun X
Aaw Hun, it's a very difficult thing to do this, and I find you just have to get your head in the right space for it to work.
Look at how others do their motivation, write things down, pictures, etc help.
I have stuff on my phone that motivates me..
I hate the fact that it costs money and I hate wasting that! Lol..
get mini goals in place along with mini treats, tell yourself it's not for ever, get a count down to something and mark it off in your calendar.
Take it as a journey to finding out how you tick, whoopsies are to be mulled over and reasons found out as to why they happened?
It's a learning curve about ourselves more than a diet...
We all struggle, some more than others, we are all different and you deserve to be a bit easier on yourself!
It took some of us a long time to get to be big, and it will take a long time mentally to get to be smaller!
I wish you the very best if luck with it, the achievement of doing something like this is soo worthwhile.
I hope you find the support to do this here, as we all need each other to keep going..
Hugs

Bananas said:Thank you sooo much . Im trying again today. I think the break was needed as I had zero energy and it wasnt good for work. Also, I had a 5km run today and know I wouldnt have managed if on vlcd. Its hard as I really want to get to goal asap but I really miss exercise too.
I'm going to have 5 packs today as I think I need some extra protein due to the run and little weights workout I did earlier...
