I'm on totm and i'm not happy :( not only will my weight loss be less this week (i can feel that i'm not losing) but i'm in agony today. Any tips on how to get through this without painkillers or alcohol (my usual method of pain relief!)?
 
Heat packs are a good way. You can buy the sticky ones from boots and they're surprisingly good or you can buy these wee bean bag type things that you heat in the microwave for a couple of minutes. Or even a good old fashioned hot water bottle.

Beat water into you to combat water retention, hot or cold should do it. Maybe make your shakes hot if that would help. AND SLEEP! If it helps to be unconscious to escape the cravings get thee to bed!

Good luck woman. :D
 
try peppermint tea.it can have a calming,soothing effect.

you may still lose weight.indierainbow lost 5lbs on her totm.

i agree with blackrose and maybe have your choc shakes hot.

snuggle up with a blankie and take it easy.
maybe watch a dvd to distract you.

if you really are very bad with it i'd still take a paracetamol to help.
i took one for a headache and was fine with it.
your health is more important hun.

hope you feel better soon x
