Sunday 10th Feb - Day 5

I weighed myself as usual and scales show another loss, only half a pound but that made me 13,2.5. Remember i started on 14,2 last Tuesday p.m!

Yesterday i had to contact the counsellor to swap some flavours. I decided to swap all soups, ie chicken and mushroom, leek and pot and spicy tomato and stick with my favourites;

Choc mint/ banana/ strawberry

I shall try a few different flavours such as butterscoth and fruits of the forest next week but for now i want to get used to the plan without any hindrances such as icky soups!

I am still on 5l of water a day. This seems to be getting easier, or maybe i am getting used to it. The toilet trips also seem less frequent. I am trying to finish the water about 5/6pm so i am not popping to the loo at all hours.

So being half a pound away from my 1st stone is great! Just hope my body doesnt start holding loads of water and ruining my weigh in for tuesday night :(

Looking forward, Valentines day will be a bummer... We are off to the west end to watch a musical and we normally love eating before the show, during the show and after the show! Diets dont exist when we head to London!!!!
But my other half is being very very very supportive as he knows how important this is to me (and him) so he will prob just grab something on the run.

This weekend has been surprisingly easy. Although going bowling with another dieting girl on friday made that easier, we both guzzled pints of water! Then we stayed in last night. Today was spent cleaning up the garden and we will just chill out tonight.

I think when i need to turn down dinner invites and girlie nights at lovely restaurants then it will be a bit harder but for now i am def still 100% motivated. Fingers crossed for another little loss before tuesday's weigh in. I'd love to say 'yeah i lost a stone in a week' as opposed to in 5 weeks on weight watchers!!!

Oh and anyone reading this who is tempted to start C.D, please invest in a smoothie maker. It is an absolute god-send. The shakes go really frothy and go alot further. Add ice cubes and it is wonderful. I really look forward to my 'meals' as they are delcious. I could never say that whilst following lighter life!

Still no horrid side effects touch wood. Seems like i am being really lucky!
