Day 3

I rang my CDC last night and asked if I could go and swap my soups/shakes of different flavours for all choco-mint as I tried a couple more flavours yesterday during the day and I still found them hard to take down. Unfortunately, I am one of those people who is not good at drinking/eating things I don't like much and it usually ends up re-appearing so managing to keep the meal packs down was worrying me a bit!

Anyway, my CDC was brilliant (I am so impressed with her - she is so good at what she does!) and let me swap them all. Then she asked if I wanted to pop on the scales; I was thinking about weighing myself yesterday but I stopped short of getting on the scales as I thought there would be no point as I hadn't even been doing the diet 2 whole days yet. But as soon as she asked I jumped at the chance!

So I pee'd on a stick and was very chuffed to find I was in a full state of ketosis - already! I knew I has felt so much better on day 2 so that must have been why.

So I got on the scales and in under 2 days of doing this diet I had lost...6lbs!!! I couldn't believe it! My CDC said I was on track for a really good loss on my 'official' weigh-in next Tuesday.

I have to say I am feeling so good already - I am drink 5L of water a day and I have more energy already. The only slightly odd day was Day 1 but even then it wasn't bad at all. I have been waiting for this 'wall' to appear that I have to conquer in the first few days but to be honest I am starting to think that was Day 1. I am sleeping better already and I haven't had a headache/joint ache since Day 1 either.

I made my other half a crispy bacon sandwich this morning and it really didn't bother me. Did nearly lick the splodge of mayo that landed on my finger but that is just force of habit!

I really do hope I remain feeling this good (or better?) throughout the diet as if this is as hard as it gets, I am going to be squeezing into those size 12's before you know it!

I am sure I'll still have 'off' days but doesn't everyone who's not on a diet anyway? Plus I counter-act them by dreaming about my new wardrobe (plus handbags and shoes to match!)...

Love to all

:-)
