Im still here How are you doing C&Q ??

After my minor blip on friday I sole sourced yesterday.. So far ive had 2 shakes today and im going to have a dinner in a bit then a shake for afters.

Im looking really chuffed now, I aim to be in this bikini I bought 2 years ago when I met OH. I looked HORRENDOUS in it a few weeks ago, I'm going to dig it out and try it on. In 4 weeks I reckon I will have lost all the weight Ive piled on in 2 years of eating pretty much carbs & veg only!

Off to Notting hill carnival tomorrow where I dont mind not drinking, Ill take my tetra and shuld be fine. If I have to find some BBQ chicken to keep me going I will ( minus the skin of course)

I have a feeling my cdc will want to put me up to 790 at least on Tuesday, but I feel still so full on AAM. I dont really want to yet

Hows everyone else going ? Toots? Penny pincher?

hey penny pincher!

I know this sounds a bit "sigh" but the reason why you are hungry is probably because you are not drinking enough water. I drink about 4 litres a day if not more. I try to have 2 litres before " breakfast". these can include your teas, coffees, calorie-free CD drinks and peppermint/ green teas too. So if you are bored of plain water there are alternatives.

I was also hungry in the first week, and my cdc recommended that I split the packs. So I usually have a full shake in the morning, half at lunch half mid afternoon, then split one in the evenings too. Im not hungry at all now ( altohugh im on AAM- which makes it worse- woke up with belly of steel this morning- forcing the water down to see if it makes me feel better)

14lbs is amazing tho! :T well done you!!

I am fine,thanks!

At the end of AAMW, last day tomorrow. Have enjoyed it and it didn't make me want to eat and eat, which I thought it might.
Have enjoyed the vegetables which I had missed. Everything tastes so much better too!

Have had a mousse most days too, just for a change aswell
