Hi Sandra - I'm a newbie too - began my sugar free journey last Sunday (only 6 days ago!). My stats - 41 years, 165cm tall, starting weight: 69.8kg, today's weight - 67.1kg. I have been most astonished to see that I have already lost 2.7 kilos! I was amazed because to be honest I havent really felt lighter (still very bloaty around the tummy) and I'm suffering from a few minor withdrawals - small headaches and bloaty.
My goal is to feel healthier, fresher, more altert, more energetic and (hopefully) to lose 10 kilos in total, eventaully.
I feel quite full all the time atm - I guess due to the food types I've eaten during the last week, ie: eggs, avocado, cheese, full cream milk on my vita brits and full cream milk in my coffee. I don't eat as much as I used to, however, as I haven't really been hungry since Monday!
Really looking forward to feeling less bloated, for the withdrawal symptoms to go and to generally feeling great and being slimmer (anyone else feel bloated around the tummy in the first week?)
I wish you well on your journey, Sandra.
