Hello and welcome :)
 
Hi Natalie Try sucking on ice cubes and make sure you drink plenty of water. Sparkling water is also good because you feel like you've had something more. Black coffee can also keep you going for another half hour or so. I find that having four shakes helps me on my really hungry days. Within two-three days you'll be in ketosis and then you won't feel it so much. Best of luck! (I've lost 4 stone since New Years Eve - got about 2 stone to go!)
 
Welcome Natalie. The first few days ARE the worst but think how fabulous you will look once you have lost the 2 stone! I agree with the above posts to drink plenty of water and I also found black coffee helpful in the 1st couple of weeks. I just don't seem to bother with it now.
 
As the other girls have said- the first couple of days are hard- it's to be expected really though. But give yourself another day or two and you'll wake up and not feel hungry!! it's fantastic when it kicks in.

Im on week 4 now, and have lost 1stone 2already.. Another 4 to go!! hehe.. it will be worth it!
Black coffee has been a life saver for me- mainly when im out , say for a meal or drinks with friends/family. sitting with a coffee in front of you somehow makes it less painful than just water! i managed to stay away from free champagne last week, and my aunts 50th family meal at a really lovely rest. man it was hard- but when you go for your weigh in, and you see and feel the results , you feel proud that you managed another week 100%.

Im hoping that i can do this diet without cheating or slipping up once. its a good lesson that we can and do have control over our weight, and how much food we put into ourselves- retraining for when we reach our goal!! also another thing ive learnt is that i can function perfectly normally on such little food which is also a good lesson for me!

anyway!.... Goodluck! 2 stone will disappear in a flash! xxxxxxx
 
Welcome!

As previously said, it does get easier. I'm on day 6 now and I have to make sure that I take my packs because I could just not bother. But it's not worth it and I do feel in a much better mood if I take them at regular intervals.
 
Welcome my dear. The first few days are horrible but well worth it once the weight starts to shift. Keep up your good work and if you feel hungry down a large glass of water...used to work for me xxx
