Erin's CD Diary

tested myself this morning and somehow or another I have knocked myself out of ketosis

Don't know if it had anything to do with the few drinks and the bite to eat I had over the weekend, hopefully by tomorrow morning I will be back in it

Good luck getting back into ketosis, hope you dont get any headaches

Well done for getting back on

Wow!!!! I have not seen this thread before (not sure why as I don't usually miss much

) but I am soooo impressed by what you have achieved. It was great reading from the beginning and following your weight loss. I so need to do something myself but just cannot find my will power at the moment.

Keep up the good work

The alcohol would have done it alone without any food.

I am sure that you will be back in Ketosis within a few days.........it really doesn't take much to knock you out as the sachets of food/bars have carbohydrates in them but just enough to make sure your body gets what it needs but not enough to tip you over the threashold so as soon as you take on board any form of carbs you will be knocked out.

Alcohol is full of sugar which is a carb hence the reason this is why I say that it would have definately knocked you out.

Hope you are ok otherwise

Lost another 2.5 lbs so that gives me a grand total of 1.5 stone in 5 weeks

Would have been alot better but I had 2 nights out and had a meal both nights plus drinks. Am going to be VERY good this week as my goal is to reach 13 stone by beginning of June

**childmind04** · 10-05-2009, 02:35 PM

well done Erin, not a bad loss for having a couple of nights out

Well done you! You'll prob be able to see a monthly pattern as you go along - I always weigh heavier in the middle of my cycle and I am my lightest as my period finishes. Are you feeling the difference?

I notice a difference in my clothes nothing drastic yet though! The best ego boost though was from my bil who didn't know I was on the diet and all he kept saying to me on Saturday was "I can't believe how much weight you have lost"

**Celtic Star** · 24-05-2009, 03:09 PM

Lost another 2lbs....that's 1 stone 11lbs in 7 weeks

getting a little worried that this is going to be my lot and am only going to lose around 2lb a week

I'm drinking 3 liters of water a day(not inc. what I mix shakes with) and although I have had the odd night out here and there I can't believe this is all I am losing. Feeling very down in the dumps about the whole thing and wondering whether it's worth it. I know that I'm just one of those people who doesn't lose vast amounts of weight, no matter what diet I'm on but at the moment I feel like I'm really denying myself so much and only getting a small weightloss each week in return.

Sorry if this is coming across as a totally negative post but at the moment I just want to cry

**ORKSIE** · 24-05-2009, 03:18 PM

Dont be hard on yourself, i have been keeping up with your Diary and you are doing really well.
I have been led to believe that the slower you lose the weight the harder it is to put it back on(not that you want it back

)
Keep at it, we are all behind you.
I have been trying to diet for about 3 weeks and i have lost about 3LB's it is hard going but it will be worth it in the end
