Day 4

Hi all
I am new to cd although i did try lighter life a few months before, and was very ill! This time however its been totally different I actually feel like I can do this! I am so excited and my cdc is an amazing lady full of drive and great ideas!

First three days were not great i did crave a lot and have had one little slip when i felt dizzy and pins and needles yesterday so just had half an egg sandwich without the crusts and felt better for it but its not put me off usually i would be like "oh well ive blown it " but this time i know i am going to do it. So far lost 6lb!!!!

I am 30 yrs old and have always been big, never shopped in top shop. Always in bigger shops and i love fashion i spend a small fortune on bags and shoes i want to add clothes to that!!! Lol but seriously the main reason for the push is we have been trying for a baby for 7 years I have something called polycystic ovaries which means weight gain is a side effect but also effects my fertility. So i need to loose 7 stone i am aiming for two by my next appointment in sept. I really need support so i joined here and anyone out there around the same starting point give me a shout we can help each other.

Good luck to all u beautiful ladies!!

Hello and welcome to Minimins!
Congrats on taking the first step to increasing your fertility.
Yep this diet is hard, if total abstinence is too much you can do SS+ which adds in a small meal...whic will actually still give you similar losses to SS. CD isn't LighterLife it's more flexible and you have choices
With your weight loss already this week, I think you'll blow 2 stone right out of the water by the time you fertility appt comes around!
Good luck!!

Wow i really hope you loose whatyu want to by the time your next appt comes around

Thanks guys! So far so good think i hve 8 off so far going for weigh in tonight coz i had my app last friday but didnt start till monday so first full week is next week but im happy with the loss for 5 days!!!!

I do keep gettig pins and needles still not sure if thats cd or something else we will see! Xxx

Well done! I didn't have a full first week either - averaged 1lb a day. Sounds like you're doing great

Well done
