Day 3- A decision has been made!

Hi all,

Well I got on the scales today as couldn't resist seeing if this crazy diet works.... 4lb off- in 2 1/2 days! I'm impressed guys! Feeling good although missing food a little. Went out to the cinema this evening and at the complex I was thinking, isn't our culture really food focussed. You can't get away from the stuff. You go out to eat, you go to work and there's a vending machine, you go the cinema and there's snacks. Its ridiculous.

Anyway I have made the decision to move to the Cambridge Diet officially and have arrange for my new counsellor to come to see me on Friday (Day 5) to give me my stuff. I am going to see LL through to day 7 (seeing as I have paid for it) and go to my stop-in on Day 5 and not say anything. I will then phone my counsellor and tell her that I'm leaving and then I plan to start the CD on Monday (day 8). My counsellor is really lovely and has lost a lot of weight on CD herself. She should give me a lot of support, and an added bonus is she doesnt charge extra for the tetra packs (cartons for those of you on LL which are banana or choc flavour and normally cost about 30p per item more) or for the bars. I'm getting some mix-a-mousse and some water flavourings as I will be in my second week of ketosis- even though its only my first official week on CD. I will also eat every 5 weeks with the add-a-meal thing that CD recommend. I am now seeing 4 weeks (altho it will have been 5 including LL) as a mini-goal which should make the journey more manageable.

I'm loving that I have lost 4 lb already and its definitely a motivator to keep me on track, so glad I said no to that HobNob biscuit today :-)

Hope you're all doing well!
