Hi and happy birthday!

Think of it as you giving yourself the best birthday present ever with CD...real care for yourself ...a much much better thing and feeling than some wine and food.
 
Happy belated birthday xx
 
thank you both,i stuck with it,the reason i started this is so i can run around with my children without feeling out of breath and tired and so i can start to feel good about myself again.im feeling brilliant today me and the twins are gonna go for a walk in a bit might treat myself to some new shoes,todays gonna be a good day xx
 
so i managed to get through another weekend with no takeaways,its actually been easy as ive been feeling so ill.ive even had to force myself to have my shakes.really looking forward to weigh in tuesday ive been drinking so much water and as my cdc says the more you drink the more you shrink.think im going to ask her about herbal tea's and see if i can drink any.water is getting a little boring i love coffee but im not sure if im allowed sweetners so thats another question i'll have to remember.hope everyones feeling good and doing well:)xx
 
Hi , well done at getting through your birthday 100 % it will be worth it :D

I can answer a few of your questions about drinks ... herbal teas are fine as long as they are made from leaves and not fruits or roots , you can have black coffee with tablet form sweeterners not granulated :)

Hope that helps a little
 
Hi there,

Well done for getting through your birthday, and hope you managed to have some fun even without food and drink.

I've taken to peppermint tea, it's quite refreshing, although at first tastes like someone dropped a polo mint in a weak tea, but you get used to it, promise!! :)
 
ty both ive got weigh in tomorrow so going to get some tea then.im going to buy some hair and nail supplements to as ive been hearing some horror stories about hair loss my cdc said i will experience some hair loss but what ive heard has really scared me.ive got really thin hair anyway so this is probley whats worrying me better to be safe than sorry and theres no way im giving up the diet.cant wait for weigh in:)x
 
yay weigh in today and im excited cant wait to find out what ive lost :)
 
well had weigh in i lost 3.5lb so happy.keep picturing myself at my brothers wedding i cant wait to go shopping for outfits bring on week 3 im really enjoying this diet.everyone had pancakes and i made them and i was not tempted at all think im finally going to do this:)
hope everyones well x
 
Well done on your fab loss :) xxx
 
seem to be finding this week really easy not expecting to lose alot as my cdc told me most people hardly loose in week 3 something to do with your body going into shock.im not to bothered though worked out if i can loose a stone a month i should make my goal so im a happy bunny.im loving the cappachino shake ive been having this for breakfast everyday.

cannot believe all my lot had a takeaway last night as it was my daughters bday and it didn't bother me one bit and chocolate cake to.im feeling alot more confident in myself to and ive only lost 10lb for once i can acctually say im truely happy.everythings on the right track and im going to be skinny for the summer :):):)

hope everyones good:) x

Hey,
I don't know the reasons why, but I know it's really bad for you to drink alcohol while your in ketosis. It will knock you out of ketosis too!
I know how hard it is too be in a pub and not drink, but you can do it! You don't want to put all your hard work so far too waste do you? ;-)

Maybe google " drinking alcohol while on ketosis " and you might get a mote detailed reason of why it's so bad for you.

Sorry I couldn't be more help xxx
 
thank you,i definetly dont want to knock myself out of ketosis ill just have to drink water :( i best start telling myself that i can enjoy a drink when ive reached my goal weight :) x
 
I know it's no fun at all being in a pub and not being able too drink!! I had to do it on Monday at my Grandad's wake, and I was in the pub with about 30 family members who were drunk!! And I was in there from 12.30-8.00pm! I went through about 10 bottles of water!! It's not easy, but just think how proud of yourself you will be when you walk out of the pub, knowing what a big hurdle you have over come! That's a real achievement!!
I snuck 2 tins of coke zero in my bag too the pub, ( as I knew they would only stock diet coke ) I got myself a glass, and filled it with my coke zero, and nobody but me and my Mum knew any different :)

I hope you have a brilliant night, 1 drink is definitely not worth knocking yourself out of ketosis!! It won't be long until you can have a vodka :-D definitely keep that thought in mind all night :) xxx
 
thanks i done it no alcohol all night so happy and had weigh in today 4.5lb so ive already hit my target so far to loose a stone every 4 weeks and ive still got a week to go.thanks for the support :) x
 
well done on the loss hun - and resisting the alcohol! :) Xx
 
thank you hunnie and well done you x
