Holly,

Feeling cr@p at the moment, banging head, hungry and feeling freezing cold. All the things I knew I would feel today and tomorrow.

Gonna keep busy, I have the kitchen to contend with now I'm clearing out all the drawers today.

When you get back from Turkey just keep focused and once the first week is done with it will be fine. Ive lost 7lbs already this week and ive only been back on CD since Monday. Oh I love it, I wish i'd found this diet years ago!

Be back on later,
Take Care
Karen

i wish id found it years ago too! Im only 20 but been fat forever! My mum did show me the LL magazine when i was about 18 but I wasnt ready to do anything about it then. i think i thought i could do it on my own, but i was quite clearly wrong!! LL has been a god send to me. And I wont be giving up after my hols! Im not turning 21 fat! hehe.
Have fun doing the kitchen!

Hi Karen - Day 3 for me too and I'm starving. My stomach is churning and rumbling like I don't know what, and unlike you I am sooooo tempted to eat BUT I haven't. I've had 3Ltrs of water and now my bowels are working overtime as well.( sorry sure you didn't want to hear that). I wish I could stop thinking how long I've got to be on this damn thing and just take one day at a time. You are so very positive.

Well here's to day 4 good luck and keep in touch
Lynda

Hi all,

Well, its day 4 today got up about an hour ago and i feel like i haven't slept all night. Im cold and my stomach thinks my throats been cut... but hey ho Im sticking with it.

Went to bed at 8pm last night, watched the Last Man standing with Bruce Willis (god he is lush) fell asleep at the last half hour. I cant believe I did that! So now I dont know what happened in the end??

Got another busy day today, ive got paperwork all over the kitchen table to finish sorting from yesterday and i want to tackle under the stairs today. Hubby comming back tomorrow evening and i have missed him, although i know if he had been here yesterday we would have had an argument as i was even a bit short with my daughter. Good job we've been here before and she knew it was coming... Bless her! She just went in her room and watched tv.

Lynda - come on your doing great, stick with it, it can only get better and don't look at how long you will be on it for. You have to just think of one day at a time... its the only way.

Take Care all,
Karen

Hi Karen, stick with it hun, you know you will be feeling so much better in just a few short days and the pounds are already melting. Karenxx

Karen, I know your right. 8lbs down already. It's just so hard, Why did I let myself gain this bloody weight back again after all I went through last year to shift it. Oh Im so mad with myself. I aint going through this ever again, once its gone it aint ever coming back. Even if i got to go to the gym everyday to keep it away

Karen

Sounds like your very determined Karen. You can do it and I'll drag you along with me to goal!

Kam, Thats it, drag me along with you, I'll try not to kick & scream all the way

Morning Karen
Sorry to hear your not feeling so great this morning. When i started LL i think i must have been lucky as I didnt feel cr*p at all. I am dreading restarting after my hols tho after what everyone has said!
How long has your OH been away for? You'll be glad to hear I had an absolutley wonderful night with Paul lastnight
Im feeling very tired this morning but sat comfortably in my size 14 jeans so im happy!!
Keep going girl!

Hi Holly,

When I started CD last May I felt exactly the same as i do now, but after tomorrow I will be ok again. It always seems like day 3 & 4 are my worst. You are very lucky you didn't feel ill. I did 6 months on CD before any food touched my lips & as soon as i started i had problems stopping. I cant eat anything when im doing this diet I have to be 100% all the time otherwise I will just be wasting my money.

OH went away on Monday, down to Cornwall for the week with his friend camping and touring around. He took my Harley with him as he could get more luggage on it rather than his sports bike. He rang just now but he hasn't got a very good signal and just keep cutting out.. bless.

Im so glad you and Paul have sorted things and are back together, I told you he wouldn't throw away 3 years over it. Im really pleased for you.

I wish i was sat with my size 14 jeans on! Im so jealous. Im not even dressed yet but when I do my jeans will be quite a bit bigger than 14. I daren't get my 12's out of the wardrobe i reckon it would put me off the diet. I will just carry on til i get to 12st and then i know i will get back into them.

Have a good day it's raining here again
Take Care,
Karen

Oooo cornwall, i love it there. Only been once but it was a great summer!
I have never been a size 14 before, when i started LL i was squeezing into a size 20 so this is all new to me, and i love it! i still weigh a whopping 14st 5lbs but hey its gotta be better than 18 right?!
Your doing really well babe

When I started I was wearing a size 26, in 6 months of SS I was in a 12 My weight started at 20st and at my lowest 11st 11 lb.

Im wearing a 20 jeans now but hey not for long!! Even after 3 full days of doing this again my jeans are looser and im 8lb down already.

14st 5lbs is not a whopping amount its much better than 18 like you said and anyway you dont even look your weight. Keep it up, we'll soon be at our targets.

x

yes, we will! i cant believe how fast it has all happened. At the end of April i was very depressed and convinced I would be fat forever! Paul cant believe how small iv gotten, he says I shrink everyday! Your loss is amazing, i hope i can lose that much

You will and so will I again come to that.

Its good how it goes so quick though coz I used to get fed up doing other diets when you dont see results instantly. Dont think DH is gonna see a difference when he comes back on Friday although I was joking with him and telling him i would be 11st when he got back.... I WISH!!

Gonna do some housework now, still got loads to do before he gets back and I got the builders coming tomorrow to start rendering the living room walls.

Have a good day and I will probably pop back on later to see what everyones been up to.

Take Care,
Karen

hi Karen (bikerbabe)

good luck
