It's amazing how determined one can be 83.9kgs

 Wednesday 83.9kgs

I did it!  I managed to fast until now and am so far 40.5 hours and planning to go until 2pm which will be 42 hours.  My plan after that is to eat a lunch of sardines and egg and salad and then for dinner tonight I will have a steak and salad and maybe some couscous or something like that.  I am obviously very pleased with myself and although this morning has been a bit of a struggle because I do feel hungry I am coping.  

So what to do from here?  Should I do another 42 hour fast from tonight?  Should I do 2mad tomorrow and then do a 42 hour fast on Friday?  I'm not sure what to do.  Obviously I want quick results but I also do not want to be stressed.  I feel quite stressed right now but that is nothing to do with food.

The numbers on the foot square made me feel good because I am way down on yesterday but then obviously after I eat today they are going to go back up again.  I think that tomorrow I will be 84.4.  
As long as the general trend is down then I am happy with that.  I keep saying that this is an experiment of one.  I have to find what works for me.  I think that ADF would be fantastic to get me where I want to be.  I am going to take it a day at a time.  See how I feel; move more; eat keto.

I bought myself some KetoStix this morning to measure my ketones so they show 1.5 which I think is good.  I am in minor ketosis.  If I am in ketosis then I am burning fat.  

I'm not sure why I feel a bit low in my mood.  I feel sad when really I should be bouncing.  The weather doesn't help.  It is so cold and grey.  Not like July at all.

Today I am grateful for 

Being able to wear my Kiabi trousers which have been too small since I bought them about 3 years ago and today I wore them out of the house.  I don't really have a top that goes with them but I just wanted to wear them anyway.

I can't think of anything else right now which kinda proves the space I'm in.

Week 5 and dose increase - 89kgs 14 st

 Gosh this is so tough.  I read all these people who are losing shed loads of weight and have no food noise and have to force themselves to eat.  If only! I have learned a saying whilst on the FB grou0s and that is 'Comparison is the theif of joy'.  This is so true.  I'll tell you something else that is the their of joy...l the bloody scales.  There is nothing more guaranteed to make you feel like crying than that square foot of glass.  But hey ho it is what it is. So today is the first of the 5mg dose.  I have to admit I am scared and really i had planned to take it yesterday but kept putting it off.  This morning I knew I had to do it and so I did the full 5ml into my belly.  I had been toying with the idea of doing a 3/4 dose but I am paying all this money to lose weight and it needs to bloody happen, otherwise it's just a waste of time and money.  There is still some liquid in the 2.5ml pen and I feel passed off that I might hav...

Week 6 - 5mg - 88.3kgs 13 st 12lb Read this often!!

 It's not exactly going fast.  I find it so disheartening when I read the massive losses people are having on the lower dose and on this dose but in only a couple of weeks.  It is what it is.  I am not exercising but I am so fucking tired all the time. I don't seem to have the energy for exercise.  I am trying to be careful about calorie intake and also protein but maybe I am not as careful as I could be.  I am not starving and I am trying to make this a way of eating that is sustainable.  I don't want to be not eating bread for the rest of my life.  If I want a bit of bread then I can have it after of course considering how the day is going. I weighed myself 2 days ago and I was 87.2kgs.  OMG I wanted to cry.  Sadly it didn't last as you can see from the numbers at the top.  I do reckon that alcohol is something which affects my weight loss.  I have not drunk wine and only had spirits with water.  Either vodka or spiced r...

Week 2 - 90 kgs 14 st 2lbs

 Week 2 Last week was quite surprising as I really had no side effects but also didn't have any positive effects like food noise reducing.   Well I don't think I did.   I did eat more healthily though.  I ate what I wanted and had bread and chocolate but not in excess and I think am thinking about food differently.   A couple of times I have left food on my plate, and a couple of times I have thrown food away where normally I would have forced myself to finish whatever was on my plate and I would definitely have put it in the fridge for later.  The scales have gone down but as they are mechanical scales it's hard to say exactly how much.  Today I took a photo of the scales so that I can compare. I think I have lost 2lbs but that is fine because at no time was I feeling like I was on a diet or deprived.
