Right I'm fed up with this 2 stone that's hanging around me now...so after 5 weeks off, I'm back on LL, head down and plough on to get rid of this last bit. I'm giving myself 8 weeks to get rid of the pesky bu'**ers and then I can face the summer!
So far the Raspberry shake was nice, the litre of sparkling water was chilled and refreshing but my stomach is crawling out of my throat looking for breakfast...hah! I felt fat and bloated in a jumper that is usually baggy on me and so it feels good to be tackling this last bit now rather than a year down the road! My head is so in the right place to get back on the wagon now...I need you with me though guys!!!!

Thank you so much...I know from the experience of others who have posted here in the past that starting off again is really hard...and while I'm not regarding this as a restart, I still realise that it could prove tricky for me to keep the momentum going.
Vegetable soup for lunch was OK, more fizzy water...OK too...one day at a time huh?

Hi Vikki, I'm with you!! I'm just starting on week 5 of LL. Think i've lost one and a half stone so far.Need to lose one and a half more, but would be happy with 2 stone, so that I have a 7lbs leeway when I start eating again. So I'm with you on the 2 stone, I've got 10 weeks to do it. DaisyJ
I'm in the same boat as you and DaisyJ. Must admit I've been struggling the last week or two. But I'm determined to get back into it and shift this last 2 stone.
Come on we can all do it.

he he he .... i logged on here to come and let all know that i am back ssing on cd as from today only to find you have been feeling the same!!!! after a weekend adding a meal every hour i also feel the need to get rid of this last 2 stone before the summer. i feel i will be so much happier maintaining once i am THERE rather than slowing making my way towards it...
i have restarted so many times since xmas and have found it so hard but am feeling up for it...i am totally with you, one day at a time. i have to really think about things and realise i want to be at goal more than i want to be eating food at the moment...it is very exciting we can do this together!
Alrighty then...there seem to be a few returners around so shall we make this a regular thread for returners?
I weighed myself this morning which I know is really naughty but I dropped 3.5 pounds already and I'm so pleased that it has strengthened my resolve to keep on with abstinence and see this through to an end...a definite end with no more weight to lose...really at goal and not 1.5 stone away from it!!! I was hoping for a 6 pound loss this week and I think it is looking good!

I'm so determined!!! I've had my second shake already so there's no way I'm going to pinch a little something from the fridge today. I'll have 4 if I have to. I just know when I'm in ketosis I'll be ok. It's just getting there!
I have my WI tonight, I think I've put on, as I've snacked a few times last week and went out on the pop over the weekend.
Never mind if I have. Yesterday was a new start and I WILL GET INTO KETOSIS!
Come on ladies. We can do this together. sam

Well you've really got me thinking now. I've done the odd day or two SS since coming off just to keep things under control, but the reality is I could still do with losing another stone then maintaining within around 5lbs of that (once again I'm at the top end of my maintenance weight today). So think I may spend today clearing the fridge (its not too bad, ham, salad etc) and getting my head into gear. Got a lot on my plate at the moment (no pun intended!) so not able to get on here much anyhow. Have to dash now, I'll be back later to let you know definite decision.
Good on you though, that 2stone will be gone in no time.
Hi Jax...why not join in the 'last bit to lose club'? I've veered wildly from not being able to face the thought of abstinence ever again to where I am now, back on it and determined to see it through to a happy conclusion.
BTW...I've got a stonking great headache this afternoon...no amount of swigging the old water is helping...can I really get in to ketosis again so quickly? I haven't got any pizzle stixs left...but my mouth feels like an old kettle and that funny taste is back! Yippee!!
