Hi hun,

im chomping at the bit for my weigh in ha, sneakily weighed myself this morning and have showed a good loss already im over the moon!

first three days is definately the hardest, still having my doubting myself moments at whether i can do this for x amount of weeks but mostly feeling really strong and just taking it one day at a time, can be abit daunting looking at the bigger picture!

Tell me about it sweet!! Iv got 25 weeks to go lol!

But.... I want it and so do you so we can do it!

Try not to look too far ahead, congratulate yourself for each day you ss 100% and each weigh in you successfully lose weight!!

Wer all in it together chick keep smiling xxxx
 
Hello and welcome to the madhouse !
It sounds like you have made a good start and should be over the worst now :)
We are the same height and my ultimate goal is to be 9st7 too. Have to say I can't ever remember being 8st anything and it would be bloody amazing but I doubt I could do that (I guess that is the difference between 23 and 43 :().
I like your list of things you want from this diet and agree with many of them but the one that stands out is the one about 'feeling like Me again'. Such a simple sentence but so very powerful and a little sad.
How many of us have lost ourselves to this horrible problem. Oh well, we will
get there in the end.
Good luck and keep us posted

Hi hun,

Wow youve done so well in such a short time. Have you 100% ss the whole way?

On this diet i find myself daydreaming about having a night in with loads of junk food and feel happy, but i could never give in to it (as ive done with every diet ive been on for last 10 years), what would be the point.......... 15 minutes of happiness? to then feel disgusted with myself for the rest of the day and have to restart cdiet? or not restart and carry on the way i was, i dread to think where id end up! its so very sad that at 23 years of age what gets me excited and happy is a night in bingeing on bad food:confused::confused: its craziness. this is me over riding those rubbish thoughts once and for all with thoughts of all the fun ive forgotten i can get out of life by spending time with friends/family and the basic things in life, feeling good about myself, wearing a pretty top, going swimming, going on beach holiday, etc i've made a promise to myself to do this, I AM WORTH IT, and i'm not going to let myself down anymore!!

haha you get yourself about as well eh :p need all the support we can get hun sometimes the buddy groups abit lacking shall we say :cool:. The thing is since starting this ive had so many email buddies etc and theyve just dropped off cos they havent stuck to the diet it is a bit discourageing but at the same time makes me feel proud that ive stuck to this and how well im doing so spurs me on more if you know what i mean? only joined here yesterday but i love it :D

how you getting on today? do you feel any better than yesterday?

day five for me can't believe it :eek::D:eek:

Much much better, thanks! 6.38lbs down and well worth it! Day 3 was really tough but today (day 4) is waay better.

We can totally do this!

Thanks hun :D

well nearing the end of day five today and ive stayed strong. oh has pizza for tea when he brings that in im not gonna have to worry about cd anymore cos i'm gonna drown in me own saliva :8855:

ive been weighing myself everyday and have had good loss so far, thing im worried about is that ive got an underactive thyroid and didnt realise i had run out of tablets (thought ide just lost a blister) so havent taken my thryroxine for two days and no chance of getting any until tuesday now! hope its not gonna slow my losses down :confused:

Doing okay, had a nightmare i ate on my fifth day, well thankfully that hasnt come true :D would love to taste something yummy in my mouth! just thinking i'll be having two days off at xmas (xmas day and boxing day) so looking forward to that lol.

Hi Hon, welcome to the boards. Have just had a read of your diary and you are doing so well. Your first post really resonated with me - the reasons why. I hope you achieve every one of your goals.

I also have an underactive thyroid and I too haven't taken my tabs for two days as I've run out. :eek: Getting my tabs tomorrow though, thankfully. Don't think it will do too much damage, though. Well, I hope not anyway.:cross:

Look forward to following your journey. :)
