Good luck with it! Hi all, haven't been on in the past few days as things are gearing up for our wedding and have had loads to do. Diet is going well, however I’m not abstinent, I'm having a pack for breakfast, one for lunch with a small salad and a meal in the evening.
Feeling a mixture of stress/anxiety/excitement on almost a daily basis and not sleeping much, and think this is helping to keep the weight off. ...

If I'm 100% abstinent for next 3 weeks, will i loose my double chin???

Had my wedding dress fitting last night and i think i looked amazing. Dress was still a bit tight around my hips, but only a little bit and hope to loose that over next couple of weeks.
The back of the dress is laced up and my waist looked amazing, so pleased.
I haven't stuck to diet that well in past few days but this certainly gave me a boost and I think I can do it now until wedding day.

Am mentally prepared for abstinence from tomorrow morning, been speaking to a friend of mine who's been doing LL for past 5 months and feel very inspired by her. I think i've just been very hard on myself (doh!).
I know its going to be hard, but it will be worth it when my wedding day comes round.
I so appreciate all your help and support.
Will post a pic for you all to see.

Feeling pretty miserable today and need to have a rant, so apologies in advance. I haven’t relaly thought about what I’m writing, so its going to come out in a blurb. Here goes

If there’s one thing I dislike about this diet is everybody else thinking they have the right to comment on what you decide to put in your mouth whether it be healthy of not, if its not a milkshake then its going to be bad. The reason for this blog, I brought in some cakes for my colleagues because it was my birthday at the weekend. Mind you, as of yet nobody else has eaten a blinking morsel o...

Had an amazing weekend, a brill birthday and hen night on Saturday and a day of indulgence and crap food today. Lost count on Saturday of all the lovely food and drink i consumed and in the end just got down to enjoying myself and having a truly fab time.

Had weigh in and put back on 5lbs, oh dear. Need to get back on track, god why am I making this so hard for myself.

Haven't really been concentrating on diet this week, have upped my calories to 1000 (i'm on Cambridge Diet) but am struggling to come off the shakes. I haven't yet made a meal yet which meets the requirements. Instead I’m living on pieces of protein and the shakes, and I'm nibbling naughty bits too.
Got my next weigh in tomorrow, so will see how I've done.

I lost 3.5lbs this week, god knows how as I've got TOTM too. Very happy and motivated to carry on a bit longer.
Taking it one day at a time though.

The wheels are coming off and I'm feeling fed up with this diet. Haven't been following it 100% for couple of weeks, and even though have wedding coming up, i can't still be on this, my life is on hold and I want to be enjoying these last 6 weeks of single life. Have my weigh in later, and if I've gained or stay same then i will probably give up. However, if I've lost, then it might motivate me...

Didn't go to work today, just so bored there and couldn't face getting out of bed this morning.
Only trouble with being at home, the temptation to eat is massive, its nearly 3.50pm and i've managed to overcome 3 urges to eat, the last one I actually walked to the cornershop and walked back out empty handed. Was so hard, but felt a tiny ounce of goodness doing it too.

I'm finding that being able to eat a small protein meal is throwing me completely. Much prefered having just the shakes. Just measured myself so hopefully that will keep me focused instead.
One day at a time is a good idea Ali1511

Am struggling again to stick to plan, i'm ok at work, and think i know where i'm going wrong, i should have my 3rd shake at about 4pm, my home time. And if I leave eating until i get in, I'm normally ravenous and go straight to the fridge.
I might try having my 3rd shake at work before I leave, and then have my 4th and final one a bit later in the evening.
Tomorrow is weigh in day and I'm trying ...

Feeling better today, and pleased that I owned up to OH about my secret bingeing, in a way its taken the pressure off a little. Maybe in the future whenever I feel caught up in the cycle of bingeing I can tell him about it and this will become a coping mechanism. I can never rule out bingeing, but I hope to be able to manage it.

Not been good this weekend, had a planned lapse on Friday but ironically didn't enjoy it, went out on Saturday night, and they had a BBQ, which I couldn’t resist, albeit that it wasn’t particularly nice. Why is the thought of eating so much more attractive then when you are actually eating.

I lost 4lbs this week !! Very pleased. That's a stone in 3 weeks. Hurrah !!

Just need to vent something ............... Why do people have to eat hot food at their desks when there is a perfectly good restaurant they can go to !!! They are so selfish !!! The smell of their food is driving me insane !! if I could walk away I would but I can't.

Does anyone else feel fat today, my rings are cutting into my fingers and I swear my hips have doubled in size today. I've managed to drink about 3 litres today but hardly done any wee's, so that makes me think I'm retaining it instead. I'm planning on drinking another litre or more tonight, is there anything else I can do? I will be so disappointed if I don't have a good loss on Thursday. Min...

Back in the office today after being in London all last week, so pleased to not be commuting again. Also find it easier to follow LL when I’m in office too no tempting cafes/shops selling gorgeous food. The only down side of being in the office, is the chap I sit next to. He takes great pleasure in trying to wind me up about all the food I’m missing, normally I can ignore him, but today I u...

Tried my wedding dress on this morning and whilst I still couldn't get it on stepping into it, it went over my head and did up better than 3 weeks ago. I still want to loose another stone, and have arranged to go back in 4 weeks time for final fitting.
Going to have a facial today to treat myself and also get my skin looking a bit better. All the vit & minerals in the shakes though and water ...

Am so angry with myself, after being so good up till Tuesday, I've struggled to stay abstinent. I'm doing ok today but I fear the damage I’ve done, I'm now consumed with guilt and can’t face going to my weigh in at 5.45pm. (went to my weigh in and lost 2.5lbs).
I've got a wedding dress fitting at 9.30 tomorrow, and all I can think about is how much of a disaster it was last time.

Wasn't good today, nibbled at lunchtime and had 3 cookies this afternoon. Not going to give myself a hard time as that's the vicious circle I was in before. Will start back again tomorrow and refocus.
Loving the sunshine though xx

Up in London on course this week, walked to 25 mins to station and stuck totally to the diet, the gremlins were in my head today trying to tempt myself into having something proteiny, but resisted and distracted myself when the delicious lunch was served up with my ipod and a good book.
Found the trip home incredibly hard though, spent most of the journey having an internal argument. We finished...

I managed to resist any food and stuck to my milkshake instead, a little help from OH was all I needed to refocus and all was good. Am so pleased with myself, thank you for your messages yesterday.
Been to Mote Park in Kent, and wondered around for a few hours, have caught lots of sun, face is stinging a bit but hope it will go brown by tomorrow.

Been to London today to look around Kensal Green cemetery, call me morbid but lots of famous people buried there. Took my shaker and when we stopped for lunch I had my milkshake. Everywhere in London food is a plenty, I don't know whether its because i'm not eating.

Meeting with OH went ok, it was like our first date again, which was really strange 3 years down the line. He's moving back in tonight.
Managed to stay abstinent, the only thing passing my lips being a glass of sparkling water, which wasn't a nice as I remember it. As we were at one of the best pubs in the South East, was so tempted to have a meal, particularly when I heard he's been surviving ...

Back on track today 100% after 2 days of falling off & lapsing. Done a lot of walking around today and must of consumed at least 3 litres of water. Been going to the loo every 30 mins or so. How do you know if you're drinking enough?

Had a massive row with my fiance today, 2 months to our wedding, he's gone to stay with his parents for the night, i think the wedding stress & milkshake stress is getting to me and I've bottled up things without talking to him.

Finding today tough, still feeling hungry as its early days, but also battling with head hunger too. Watched a film on tv last night, and my usual routine would be to be nibbling something, especially as OH had gone to bed, so I had full reign of kitchen and fridge. Somehow I managed not to give in to temptation.

Have returned to LL after a disastrous wedding dress fitting last Saturday, where the damn thing wouldn’t fit me. I knew it was bad, but it not getting over my hips was mortifying. This was my 3rd fitting, and I had known I had to be good, but it seems I was intent on sabotaging myself. It was a very unpleasant experience but it was the kick up the bum I needed.
