Did i read right that you put i could lose 3 stone?? Realistially i'd be starting in March and the wedding is the 3rd April - so i was thinking i have a full month to lose weight - a stone would be great in that time! Any more would be better of course!
I'm having my clothes made in the next 2 weeks and can get them adjusted so thats not a problem.
I'm alraedy generally tired and run down - 3 kids and a job! - so will this make me even more groggy and miserable?????
Well starting on the 1st of March it will be a stone then but if you started now and ended mid april it could be a 3 stone. People will always lose more in the first two weeks any because you are uping your water. This will happen on any diet though. Great to hear that your clothes can be adjusted. It depends on the person but they do say a stone per dress size. It didnt work like that for me but you maybe different
Reagrding the groggy stuff, well I can't say for certain but your first 4 days will be bad. Your body will be asking for food, your mind will be asking for food and you need to fight that off. However once you are in the magic Ketosis its wonderfull. I actually have more energy on CD than I do off it but again its personal to each diet user. Its having the drive and determination to get past those few days and into ketosis thats the hardest.
Good luck whatever you decide, if you follow CD pop back there is lots of support here :j0 -
Hi Pap, lovely to see you back on here, we've missed you - it's fabulous that you're enjoying the running, I like the fact that I can actually run (a little) these days
With my weight and pre-existing back/leg problems, I never thought I would be able to run for even a bus, but me and DD have little 'races' up the road towards school on nice mornings (remember those everyone? hope they come back soon).
We're away at friends now, luckily my friend is on LL too and she let me try a 'chilli' last night.......hmm, repulsive just about covers it, I was so disappointed but black pepper and taba$co made it bearable.
I like her scales, by bedtime I'd lost 3lbHaven't weighed myself this morning as DD and I are downstairs being quiet whilst everyone else sleeps *shhhh*.
I want to get below where I was before Friday as that's a planned day off....I can do it, just a few more swims/saunas and lots and lots of water, lol.0 -
Morning
Hey Kittkins Hope your having a nice time at your friends place? .... when are you back?
Welcome Save, im sure you can lose this weight ready for the wedding, I felt crappy for a week and then didnt feel hungry atall you just need to stick with it and keep drinking
Pap im already 2 stone down ..so im sure another 2 would be achievable! .. well im hoping so lol ...
Ive only had half a pint so far today, and a cup of tea, I know im out of K cos my tum is hurting and i feel hungry, Why the hell did i give in, .. at least im not working for the next few days so i can get myself back to it without having to worry about being shaky etc.
Were not doing alot today either, ... visiting a friend after lunch so the kids can play and im going to kick OH out to see his mate later on i think lol ....
off for another glass of water ... xxxxHoping to be a thinner me in 2010!0 -
Yay, back home and can't wait to get on the scales tomorrow morning for 2 reasons - firstly, to see if my friend's scales are right and secondly, to start our Mad March Challenge0

Morning everyone
It's sunny down here, yippee!!
No change on the scales this morning, the battery must be dying, lol....but I'm not too disappointed as I did lose 4lb over the weekend.
So I'm in for Day 1 of the challenge. I've got 4 stone to lose in total now, so if I could do a stone this month, that would be great as I want to get my life back by summer. DD and I are going to attempt to grow veggies and fruit this year, and I want to sample my harvest this year!0 -
Morning, Sunshining here to
makes all the difference doesnt it!
I get weighed this morning at 11.30 but not holding out much hope for anything, When i get back from school run ill add our names so we can see them again as they have dissapeared a few pages back lol ...

Wondered what that ethereal glow down on level 3 was, it's your halo!! :ALOL!
You're doing fabuloso - have a good birthday weekend but maybe a bit more than a salad before you go out boozing?, I don't want you to fall off the wagon but not many carbs in a salad to soak anything up, and you don't want to have to go home early.
regards
