Just wanted to wish well for today, I'll check in later to see how you get on. This is my 1st time on CD, have lost 16lbs in 2 weeks, so really pleased. First few days were the worst! I dont know how you will manage being at work and all those trips to the loo!! THats the difficult bit, lol!
Are you hoping to lose 7 stone in 100 days? thats the same amount as I have to lose, so we can chum each other along the rocky road!!

hi thanks for replying i don't think i'll lose the 7 stone in 100 days but 100 days sounds doable at the moment had porridge for breakfast at 10 and just finished 1.5 ltrs of water and yes i am going to the bloody loo all the time believe me when you get in ketosis it gets easier so lets hope we get there in the next few days lol last time i was on it i lost over 5 stone in the 100 days this time i'm going to exercise aswell so who knows how much i lose anything will be good at the moment

hi day 2 and day 1 went with no hitches thanks for replying yes i've done it once so i can do it again what happened with my tummy tuck well during the op i lost too much blood and nearly died then to cap that i got a massive infection and was in hospital for over 3 months with a great big whole in my stomach after getting out of hospital i couldn'y really do anything for 6 months got depressed and ate for england but hey thats all in the past and believe me when i say i would do it all again it was just unfortunate that this happened and i would still encourage people to have one even with my excess weight back on my tummy still looks miles better than before so imagine what it will look like when i lose my weight again just waiting to get into ketosis now then i know it will get easier take care and keep at it it is soooooooooooooo worth it

Start of day 3 so your glycogen store is almost empty watch out for your brain trying to trip you up by telling you you need to eat.
The porridge definitely helps as it is so filling.
Are you doing SS or SS+ this week?

Have you got enough CD to see you through, if diet was sent today will not arrive until sometime tomorrow. I could try and arrange for you to borrow a few packs from another CDC near you?
