Last week was my second week on the CD diet. I found it very difficult mentally, I managed to stick to the diet without feeling hungry or feeling tempted.
But it was my ugly monster
that reared its head – I felt disappointed that I did not have that big weight loss in the first week, I broke one of my rules and weighed myself in the week, and I remained the same. I seriously questioned why I was sacrificing food if I was not losing weight. But nonetheless I stuck it out – 3 meals a day with 4 – 4.5 litres of water a day and I logged on this web site for motivation.
On Monday I lost 5lbs. Then I really had to ask myself why I was being so hard on myself. In the last three weeks I have lost 19lbs (6lbs pre CD). Almost a stone in 2 weeks with CD WOW. .In the last 17 months I haven’t even been able to accomplish 1lb, my weight just piled on.
At that realisation I have been so relaxed, it’s quite a relief. I actually feel happy and I can see myself next spring in size 12 clothes.
So to all newbie’s out there, on your roughest day log on to this website. I found support I’ve never had before. You might not post, but reading them is very powerful to changing your thought process. You are not alone.
