Right chaps, while BIWI is drinking prosecco in sunny Italy away being busy and important, I'm your supply teacher for the next couple of days. BIWI has given me temporary responsibility for the Big Stick, so no messing about at the back there!
Well done on getting to week five, it's not easy and despite the fab support on here you've done this yourself, so remember how far you've come.
Please record your weight on the spreadsheet and marvel at your progress!
Temptations will come along, especially over bank holidays and half term treats, but remember that you're doing this for yourself, so be kind to yourself by not giving in to the temptation from things that do you harm and risk derailing you, as every time you look after yourself in this way it get easier. If you have a wobble, post on here - we'll remind you of all the tasty things you can have instead and why.
Have a lovely week!

good morning all! another backslider hopping back on the wagon today - 2lbs on this week which is a mercy given the amounts consumed...
sorry i haven't had time to catch up with the thread properly but happy birthday to those who have had them and good to see you back BIWI.
am still in the 10's which is a big deal for me so all is not lost, and i can't believe how much worse i feel in my self while eating 'normally' - i want to get back to not being hungry during the day! i have been away/out/celebrating a lot and it just seems that when alcohol is involved, all my resolve goes out the window. really think that's something i need to address and the rest will fall into place.
going to go back to the spreadsheet and read about ubercamp - maybe if i do that for 3 days it will kick-start ketosis again?
it's interesting to see so many of us are having the same issues, I'm also going to up my water intake again - hope everyone else has a good start to the week

Oooh I'm finding it very very difficult today. I'm hungover and it's raining and I really want to make cakes or scones or something. 
'rein in your inner gobbler' - i'd get a t shirt with that on 
not hungry so haven't eaten today. been busy on exercise bike and playing with new weights (got whole set of hand weights + 8x 1kg + 4 x 2kg for £3 off ebay!)
weight is 91.5kg today. was 96.8 last bank holiday!
Breakfast: scrambled eggs
Lunch: scrambled eggs
At this rate i am going to start to look like a scrambled egg. Or coffee. drunk waaaaaay too much coffee today. Have actually lost counts this is a bad thing 
All going ok here with a little wibble. Yesterday had
B- half slice of toast
L- chicken salad
D- lamb. Steaks and salad
Today
B- scrambled eggs w cream
L- salt beef salad with beetroot
D- chilli w cauliflower rice, yoghurt and grated cheese
I'm another lb down today but feeling really miserable- like PMS but wrong time of the month. Was almost ready at work (work is v stressful but I usually cope fine). It's day 8 of this woe, is this carb flu? If so I hope it passes :(
Think I'll have an early night with a trashy book (to avoid dd's treat cupboard!)
