Now this next one is almost nothing like the 3dd most of us are doing, but it may be better for those who have any type of medical illness such as hypoglycemia or diebetes.
Click me
I know its a day early, but I figured might as well get this out there so other people can join as well!
Can I get a tally of everyone who is doing the 3dd with us. so far I have:
myself a.k.a. Whittnie aka Brittany
Twilight a.k.a. Nancy
salamanda a.k.a. Sally

Hey Pard...I will do 3DD #1!
Do we really have to give our weights? I'm afraid to! It is too high to record and i's embarrssing! any my scale is whack! and the dog ate my homework! Waaaahhh!
come on girlfriend, I will be honest as to how much if ANY I lost, but I hate having to record my weight, my measurements and all that stuff all the time, it makes me cringe to know, let alone for everyone else to know too!

Totally fine lets just record pounds lost! I weigh 227 so I would be the one cringing at my scale and measurements! LOL. I embrace it right now because I know that it is not going to be like that for much longer. Anywo hopping in the shower talk to you later!

Thank you Pardner, that will make it much easier for me to eat beets and smile!
The sites you 'transported' are great, expecially the first one since the second one I got the red x's instead of pictures. (See how stupi I am regarding computer? don't know how to eleviate that)
So which are you going to do? and will you do the reg. vanilla ice cream? not sure if it would be cool to substitute frozen yogurt for it or not, but would love to. don't really understnd the ice cream thing since they say its a drastically reduced calorie intake tht makes it work!
I don't know what to do! We have got to wake up Sally for advice!
WAKE UP SALLY!! HOW MANY HOURS OF SLEEP DO YOU BRITS NEED ANYWAY?
"Wakey, Wakey"!! ha ha ha ha

Hey Brit Whit! here is another link, it is exactly like your link 1 but from a diferent source. of coarse I don't now wha to do to get it be accessable like you adn omgirlie did but here it is...
http://www.webmd.com/diet/features/the-3-day-diet
So now I bought a can of beets and these 2 diets say carrots! I'm sure the beets are fine, don't ou think? I'd rather have carrots but I though beet one night and carrots the other jut to 'mix it up' a bit! Still struggling with the ice cream thing.. what are you gonna do? ice cream., full fat or lighte or yogurt, ff or full, frozen or soft? I hate to even have the stuff in the house. I'm thinking Dairy Queen or Mcdonalds (yuck) baby size cone throw the cone away? I don't know, I need input guys! do you think there is something chemical about the reg. ice cream? I would so much rather have the ff type or ff frozen yogurt!

lol! You two make me laugh I have a bad hangover and it is 1:30 in the morning my hubby is such a bad influence. I crashed at about now I am wide awake with a thumping headache! Hey I was OK with food yesterday but overdid the alcohol lol!
Great links girls I'm going for 1 mind you 2 was tempting because of the 2 tablespoons of peanut butter which I love!!!
I wouldn't get to hung up on the icecream yoghurt thing have what you want but not too much lol! Actually it is such a small amount lol! Have you ever weighed 1 oz of cheese? Well I'm telling you it's very small!!!! . It's like the banana thing I mean half a banana! What do you do with the other half? I just bought very small bananas and had 1.
I will weigh in the morning I feel very fat at a the moment like I have put on weight during my time off so I am not looking forward to weighing!

Pain killers are kicking in and hubby has got up and is on his computer now he is as bad as me but he goes into weather chat rooms how sad is that! He wants to go to the US with me to chase tornados down tornado alley for a holiday! Give me Florida any day lol!

you know they actually have a 1oz portion that they sell at the store! I bought that one! As for the ice cream I am going to go with fat free frozen yogurt! It is my favorite and I may switch it up and get the 99% fat free and switch the flavors! (i know its not allowed). Also for the hotdogs I had such a hard time buying the full fat hotdogs so I picked up fat free turkey dogs! I hope thats ok. I also picked up lowfat cottage cheese. For the three ounce portion of meat i bought a 3 oz (exactly) portion of red snapper! I also am going to tweak the diet to fit me. The tuna i am going to make tuna salad with mustard salt pepper relish (just the juice to add flavor) and some other spices. I am doing #1 too!!!

Well I'm on for tomorrow and I STILL have a hangover so I will be happy not to be able to drink again!
I haven't gotten the grapefruit yet, I wish they were ripe on the tree now, I hate to have to actually pay for something that we normally have an abundance of right out the door!
1/2 grapefruit is insane, back in the olden days that's how people ate them, yo know cut them in half and section it out...now I just peel the whole thing and eat it like an orange! I won't know what to do with the other half! Maybe I'll buy a very small one and eat the entire thing!
same with bananas, qwe get tiny 4 inch ones so i will just eat a whole one. I wish the peanut butter was on the same breakjfast as the banana...yum p.b. and banana just like Elvis! Thank you, thank you very much!

I didnt even buy the grapefruit yet either! I hate them yucky, i wonder if i could use a different citrus fruit???? I totally forgot about it 
I love peanut utter and banana sandwiches! one of my favorites I also love peanut butter and banana smoothies! YUM YUM!!

I know, it will be hard to stop at only 1 tablespoon!

Morning ladies, Am ready to start the 3dd, weighing in at 148 pounds - after a very lazy weekend. I spent MOST of yesterday afternoon/evening on the computer - I cannot believe how much of my day is spent checking in with you lot!! I'm getting nothing done!!
And my husband now believes this is what I do all day when he is at work - I'm trying to convince him I am VERY busy and totally run off my feet - which I am when I peel myself away from the computer and run around like a headless chicken trying to catch up with the cleaning!! All this sitting around typing is not good for the butt!!- It doesnt burn calories!!!- maybe I could move the computer to the treadmill!!
Anyway enough waffle, I have an exercise DVD waiting for me and a FILTHY house to clean!! Just on my third cup of hot water and lemon - to cleanse my system. I am suffering from a food hangover!!! Don't know what happened me yesterday but I grazed all evening on a huge loaf of fresh baked crusty bread, pate and oak smoked cheese. It wasn't the pate nor the cheese that has done the damage, I am suffering from carb and wheat overload!!
I have come to realise that white bread is my poison and believe me I have a headache the same as if I had downed a bottle of red on an empty stomach!! Hence the hot water! However I am feeling positive and looking forward to my ice-cream - don't know how I am going to survive without cream in my coffee though!!
Good luck everyone, talk to you all later
Sinead

Ok I had my breckie of grapefruit, peanut butter on toast and I licked the spoon, knife and plate lol! at 11:30am and soon I'm off to work for the afternoon so I will have my lunch at about 4:30 and then my dinner at 7. I'm not normally a breakfast person.
Sinead your post made me laugh I am just the same when dieting and on here, my house is a pigsty! I blame it on the fact I have to keep out of the kitchen where temptation lies and that is always the messiest place due to my son training to be a chef [I wish they'd train him to clear up too!] and my hubby just being messy lol! Why is it men use twice the amount of saucepans and mess up every square inch of the work surfaces than us women that's what I want to know? I love your idea of moving tha computer to the treadmill! I'm suffering from a bad hangover and am thinking that I won't wear my hearing aids today so I don't hear how noisy the classroom is lol!
You're up early Brittany!!!!!!
Good luck everyone

WHAT A WILD AND CRAZY GROUP WE ARE!! It's like we ALL went a bit crazy yesterday with the food and drink because we KNEW we'd be starting this 3DD torture today so one last fling! I feel I have undone everything I did on th CSD! and I am drinking my coffee w/o skim milk too nd YUCKO! I have to get dessed and go to the store for grapefruit and ice cream and green beans now!
Last night I had a mango and 2 small ripe bananas left over from the CSD and what did I do with them? I put them in the blender with lime juice, Triple Sec and Tequila and made a frozen tropical MARGARITA!! and that was AFTER several vodka drinks!! I am a baaaaaad girl! So today will be tough, but we'll get through it together! I think we all had kind of a wild weekend!!

morning!
I just finished my grapefruit, toast, pB and coffee! it was quite delish! I really wasn't two bad on my day off.
For mom's day we went to brunch and I had a NF cappucino on the way there. At the restaurant I had egg whites scrambled with marscapone cheese, lobster and chives. with 1 slice of toast with a smidge of butter, three forkfuls of hash browns, literally 1 bite of sausage and 1 bite of bacon, a bite of the french toast, and a silver dollar pancake. I passed on the dessert! but I did have 2.5 glasses of wine.
I skipped lunch cause I was full. Went to Chuck E. Cheese for my son's birthday where I had a half of a slice of pizze but a full slice of the crust.
When I got home I had a little bit of chicken breast with hummus. I wanted pita but it was old.
Then for dessert I had two bites of my son's birthday cake, and a medium NF frozen yogurt. Late night I started freaking out and wanted to raid the fridge so I had .5 a serving of baked lays and a 1/3 of a piece of string cheese.
Sheesh now that I type it all out it was a lot 
I didn't weight myself today and I'm not untill Thursday morning. Yesterday when I weighed myself I was down 5 pounds from the CSD!
Woo hoo! Go us with our 3 day!

Flipping heck I am way behind today lol! 5 pm and I'm just eating lunch!!! This tuna is so dry it is hard to get down! I still haven't had my gratefruit from breakfast either as I only got one just now after work! Actually I don't know how I'm going to get in all the food today but I'm sure I'll manage! I couldn't get my weight watchers tubs so I bought 'Skinny Cow' icecream instead what a name for an icecream lol!

Hi guys!
It's so great to hear you are all sooo up for the 3dd!! You have my full support & I love reading your posts!! I'm going to be way behind you as I'm not starting til Thursday, but will be great to hear how you all get on with it before I take the plunge - you are the guinnea pigs!!!!! All the tips & advice will be really helpful & any little tweaks you do to the diet will be great to hear too!!
Sinead - you made me laugh too about spending so much time on the computer .... me too, it's so hard to tear myself away from it sometimes!! The treadmill thing sounds like a fab idea!!!! I did actually hear from someone once that fidgeting burns off loads of calories ...!!! I always used to be a constant fidgeter, but not so much now, maybe that's why I gained wait (yeah Kerry, blame it on the lack of movement & not the masses of cakes biscuits bread & icecream I've been devouring lately!!) Anyway, I think we should all just 'fidget' when we're on the computer - it might work, so keep tapping those feet & wiggling those legs whilst typing girls!!
Anyway, I wish you all the luck with it & look forward to hearing from you all!
Speak soon!
Kerry x
(ps - I just read this message back & I hope that everyone knows what fidgeting is ... you know how sometimes the UK & US have different words for different things, it just made me giggle, because if you don't know the word fidgeting, my message could sound quite rude!!! Hahaha!! That just really made me giggle!!!!)

Kerry how's your daughter doing? The science papers were awful today the hardest they have ever been especially paper one!!! At least science is finished now!

I just had my grapefruit and toast w/PB. I was fine until I ate that and now I'm so hungry! Also my coffee was yucky without skim milk.
I went to 2 supermarkets and couldn't find fresh green beans so I bougth frozen, hope that's okay. Last week they were all around, I know becasue I bought a pound of fresh green beans and ate them all on CSD "Veggie day"!
Feel kind of lousy today, a bit hungover from the past 2 days, both drink and food hangovers. You know, just that tired feeling, I feel so bad for eating and drinking too much after working so hard the previous 7 days! Here we go again...being hard on ourselves! I always tell other people not to feel that way and here I am, I should listen to my own advice and just GET OVER IT!
I bought the regular ice cream not the light because most of the 3 day diets specified that. Now after reading Sally's post I wish I had gone the low fat route! Oh well, notice how much more expensive the low fat stuff is?
I'm not going to weigh myself until Thurs. either. I hope I can make it through this 3DD, it's a hard one, I think the CSD is muc easier for me at least. I miss the Soup, can you believe it?

twilight,
don't worry about getting the regular vs. LF. when I did it last time I lost the weight eating full fat everything! full fat hot dogs, ben and jerry's ice cream, full fat cottage cheese and real peanut butter. If I'm going to torture myself for 3 freaking days I better at least get some pleasure out of it!
