Wannabeminime; 1st Weigh In!

Thanks BL. Decided to keep this thread going until my first weigh in, get the hard bit over and done with some support on here, then just post my weekly results. I am not really one for posting unless i have a problem. :rolleyes:
 
Nearly to the end of day 3:D, and i am sat here at the kitchen table whilst the kids eat their tea from the Friday night chippie van, jumbo sausage and chips, and i am not even tempted!:eek:
 
Excellent Bex :bliss:

See...not too hard is it, when you get the head in the right place. Doesn't even need willpower.

Well done! :clap:
 
Thanks KD.

MAde it to day 4 in tact! Even went to a Quiz n chips night last night without being tempted! They smelt gorgeous though...

Got cramps in the night in my legs so i am gonna have a cup of buillion tonight as i remember the extra salt helping when i did cd.

Oh, and my breath stinks!:D

Great going bex :clap:

Watch out for the bullion. It wasn't allowed on CD, and LL might have their own rules about it. Have you asked?

There are alternatives for cramp, but don't want to give details in case it conflicts with anything LL. Don't want to confuse matters :D
 
Hi Kd, LL have their own version, similar to the cd one, but they are expensive and not as salty (and not as nice!). I have read that the buillion is similar to the ll one, just a bit saltier. I think thats what i need as it worked before. just a bit of extra salt stops my agonising leg cramps. And tbh, if my counsellor said i couldnt have any, i still would because of the pain!:rolleyes:
 
Day 4 is at an end. Been feeling headachey today, hope it passes soon. I've had quite a stressful day though, i have decided to take a 2 week break from my bf, although i suspect it will become permanent. We've been together for 4 years, so it will be hard to cope with, but it just isnt working anymore. :cry::cry::cry: Thoughts of eating havent been far away today. :(
 
Firsty Becky, well done for getting through your 4th day thats brill, i heard you get headaches at the beginning but it does pass, so sorry to hear about your b/f, i hope you will be ok/ if ever you ned a chat just let me know, food is always tempting especially when your down but stay strong hun and it will be worth it in the end. xxxx
 
Thanks Charlie, i dreamt about him all night, and in a good way. I hate it when your brain does that, ignoring all the bad stuff. I know i have to stick to my guns this time.

Today will be hard emotionally, but i dont think physically. I wasnt hungry yesterday and had to force myself to have a forth pack.

Oh, and no cramps last night!:D
 
Hey Becky

Stay strong - I know you have heard that so many times. It can be difficult to diet and deal with an emotional rollercoaster at the same time but you can do it, LL almost makes it easier as you have no choices to make other than flavours of packs!

Use this site (as I know you already do) for support for both diet and relationship. That's what we are all here for as they feed (ugh want of a better word) into each other.

Happy day 4 :)

Kat xx
 
Hi Becky, I went through the same kind of thing as you. My marriage ended in my first week of LL and we had been together 20 years (since i was 15) and have 2 children. It actually made LL easier in some ways because i was too preoccupied to think about the diet much but also when times were at their worst i wanted takeaways and wine! Now 6 weeks on LL couldn't of come at a better time. When going through a break up your confidence is naturally at an all time low but losing weight as rapidly as you will be doing totally reverses that. I feel great at the moment and rather than drowning my sorrows with food and alcohol and getting bigger, i am looking better than i have done in years and loving fitting into smaller clothes and receiving so many complements. Keep going you'll be fine i'm sure and also the councilling works well with opening your eyes to what you really want out of life. Good luck x

Wow, i bet your husband has some regrets when he sees you now! Well done on sticking with it, and thanks for the encouragement. xx
 
The break up of this relationship is closely linked with my self esteem and lack of confidence. I think i was with this guy, C, because he truely loves me and i dont think he would ever hurt me. I have been hurt badly by relationships in my life; my ex husb left me when my youngest was 5 weeks old and my eldest was 3. He went off with someone else, and had been seeing her through my pregnancy. Then i met someone else, bought a house together, great i thought, then it turned out he was cheating on me too. So 'C' is a different matter. He loves me, but thats not enough if it's not reciprocated. I am very fond of him, but there are too many things wrong with the relationship (too much drinking, smoking, swearing, ie he was my bit of rough, plus my youngest and him really dont get on). I must stick my to guns this time and see it through to the end. But i hate hurting people.:cry::cry:
 
Hey you. Got no words of advice - am really crap at the relationship stuff. But sometimes you have to be selfish and do what you need to do for yourself. Sending positive :vibes: for your weekend, and your continued success on LL :hug99:
