Hey M Bee, how is your councillor?? I want to start on 1st Febuary, but need to find a really good councillor to keep me motivated. Does your councillor know about maintaining afterwards?? For the rest of you Ladys, can anybody recommend a good councillor in east london, near Barking. Also, did you Ladys start of on the Milkshakes only? If yes, premixed or powdered? If powdered, have you got any recipes?
Loads of questions I know, but I want to be prepared lol |

Hi Choc-Lit, My CDC is ok, she is based in Chingford but she does come out to you but I think there is an extra charge for that. What you can do is visit the cambridge diet website n they have a list of counsellors in your area, there should be one much nearer to you. Or you could call them on 0800 161 412. When you arrive at your goal weight, you get information around a maintenance plan, but it is also available for you online, just google cambridge diet UK. I started on the premixed stuff as I thought it would be easier for work, but really hated the taste. Dont worry about the questions, I still have loads when I go see my CDC. Well good luck try it, it really does work. I have been on here a lot lately as its my first few days back on CD, I find logging the days really help.

Hi M Bee,
I did go on the website, found one in Barking, gave her a call and she didn't sound very nice. I asked her a few questions but she was very evasive and didn't really give me an opinion. Might call a few more, but might go with her I guess. I'm going to call around tomorrow and see what can be done lol. Will give you guys an update then. M Bee did you start on milkshakes only? Any tips on which flavours? Anyway TC xx |

Hi Natti,
congrats on your amazing weight loss. Please try and stay focused ladies, considering I haven't felt the hunger that you have, all I can say is THINK OF ALL THAT MONEY YOU HAVE PAID lol... also do you guys have some sort of motivation technique e.g. buying a beautiful dress in ur aim dress size?? Keep focused and keep coming back so we can support each other, God knows I love food so I this will be very hard for me lol |

Its day 6 and I'm feeling hungry, I keep telling myself its not physical, but psychological I have an hour left before I have my next meal so I guess that's not bad. Just trying to occupy my mind by sharing my thoughts with you guys and reading up on things. The first time I went on CD, I had my crazed hunger days at the very beginning, so thought it would be a breeze to have got to day three without a hitch, this definately helps though. I had a sneaky peek on the scales and saw that I had lost around 10lbs this week, not bad for the first 6 days I guess, with a bit of luck I'll of lost over a stone come next weekend when I go to see my CDC, I havent met with her this time around yet as I had some packs left from before I broke my diet. I hear you C-L, I do browse nice bits on the net hoping that I'll stick to this plan this time around so that I can reach my goal. |

Hi all,
I am thinking of of going on the CD, but am concerned of the side effects as there is so much n the press about it being unhealthy and has adverse side effects, i would love to loose 4 to 5 stone and really want to looseit quickly. Have read most of theposts and i admire you all on your determination.
I have tried all sorts of diets but i really need a heavily restricted diet as i have no self control!!!
Your help and support would be much appreciated |

Hey B=Bum n all y'all
Hope its going well for you n sorry for the delay in any response. I had fallen off the wagon and am returning today, I have had a vanilla shake, hot chocolate and have had my last pack a porridge. I am drinking a mint & nettle tea as well, I have not done to well on my water so will try to drink a litre before I go bed, I have had around only 1 litre so far.
I am also a smoker and my quit day is tomorrow, I decided to take action with my weight, since I have done CD before and it worked great for me, I just did not stick to it to loose my last few stones. They say that you can gain around a stone and a half on average quitting smoking, so I guess that I ought to do the two together as I dont want to gain what I have lost already. Its gonna be quite a challenge but hey its all for the good so if there's anyone out there then plaeas please, please, support, support, support!!!

Hi Mussy
Yes apparently cardio exercise is not good at this time. Light walking is good. If you can get through the first few days you will most defo have lost a good amount of weight loss after the first week. I think you can be on SS for one week and switch over to the next stages but I think its best to stay on SS for as long as you can as it really works. Dont forget that SS+ is also quite low in calories and you can loose quickly on this too. Good luck it is initially hard but really works fast. Keep us updated to see how you go. |

Hey guys, how is everyone doing on the diet. Well I was ill for about 5 days, that was the last time I came on here. Turns out, I wasn't ill but experiencing abit of morning sickness lol. Unfortunately had to stop CD but got a beautiful baby on the way so I'm here for support now lol.
To all you guys thinking about doing the diet, definately give it a go. I found it to be easier than most diets as there is no reason to be looking at other foods. The sachets are all you should be having, which is a big plus for me as I with other diets,I always found myself snacking on other foods.
Hope you are doing ok M Bee? |

I've tried ww before and also xenical. Both worked for a while but i never actually reached goal with ww. And couldn't handle the side effects from the pills! I've decided that it's taken me 37 years to grow this big, so even if it takes 6 months of starving to get it off i'll try! I'm 5'2" and weigh 12stone. I'd like to lose 3n1/2 st.

I followed the CD last year, I lost 3 stone and then when I stopped the diet and weight came back on, plus an additional 6ibs.
So then i went on WW and lost 6ibs but only loosing 1 or 2 pounds per week is never going to motivate me. So I've been back on the Cambridge Diet for just over a week now and have lost 7 pounds. I am determined to loose 3 stone and keep it off this time. |

Its the morning of day 7 and I had a sneaky peak on the scales - "the official weigh in day" I have a loss of an amazing 11lbs. Whoo hooo! I am elated I am hoping to continue taking it day by day with the view of dropping the stones, so here goes looking forward |

You go Peny. I decided to blog everyday here even if there a very few visitors, as it helps to take the focus away from deviation.
Today was an ok day, well it was a long one, so this has helped to kick start the week, hoping for a nice significant loss for the end of the week. Just got to keep me water drinking up, only managed 2 litres 2day, - mental note to self, try drinking at least a litre before going to work. That way 'll beable to pace myself with the second 2 throughout the day. |

I reckon you will still loose however it might not be as significant as last week JJ. Tip is to try to keep up with your water cos once you are back into ketosis, the weight will drop. You really do need to stick to it for the first few weeks, I'd say, that way you can establish what the average weekly weight loss for you is, the first week generally tends to be the biggest weight loss.
Ps, dont be disheartened you have done really well so far n this diet is flaming hard. It has taken me ages to try n get back on track |

Have been forgetful all day really, first I forgot to bring a shake to work so did without all day, then I left my memory stick in the pc, then I went to put the kettle in the microwave, woteva next. Isn't it ironic I have remembered all of that. |

Hi, I started cambridge last week and only actually did it for the 3 days out of 7 and still lost 4lb, which was amazing considering I had a couple of take aways. So this week Im going to stick to it rigidly and see what sort of result I get. My only problem is I get bored and dont know what to do with myself if im not eating and drinking. |

Ive got my 2nd weigh in friday and even though ive not cheated, I dont feel like ive lost anything. I weighed myself this morning (I know I shouldnt) and i was 12st 2 and then couldnt resist doing it again this evening and im now 12st 6lb!! What is that about, I think Im going to have to throw my scales away, Ive become obsessed by them |

Well done you peny, I hope ive lost something this week, will be really disappointed if its only a couple of lb. A couple of lb is fine if your on slimming world but when your on a diet like this and having to sacrafice everything like food and alcohol, you want big numbers dont you. fingers crossed Ive only got 3 weeks til my big event and I will be gutted if I havnt a least lost a couple of stone. |

:( I lost 4lb this week. My councilor says I should be please. Ive lost 8lb in 2 weeks. Ive also lost 16 inches all over. I suppose I should be please. I guess its better than gaining 8 lb. I just thought Id been losing stones. After all I am consumming only 600 cals a day

Yeah my CD lady said that although the bad news is 3 of them are off my breasts :(. Im just not feeling any different. I think I read too many CD stories and think I had losing stones not pounds in my head. Oh well here goes another week. Good luck this week Peny, keep me updated

You guys are nuts to think this is good for your body. You are just ruining you metabolism. Its just not healthful. No one can sustain this long term. |

I just want to congratulate everyone doing the cambridge - the first 3 days are really hard i know but once all the food if flushed out your system believe me it becomes ALLOT EASIER to stay on track!
- Remember a moment on the lips a life-time on the hips-
Before you eat that chocolate (or piece of food), and break your diet, just think is this going to benefit me in and hour? NO it is not so don't eat it. just think about how good you will look at the end of your diet. I also find if all your friends are eating but your not just imagine them all fat :D
LASTLY:
STICK WITH IT- DO NOT DISAPPOINT ME!! YOU WILL REACH YOUR GOAL |

OH YEAH ONE MORE THING
-EVERYONE who tells you "you shouldn't do this diet because its not good/ healthy" or "Its too hard or too extreme- do this one instead", are failures who have tried to lose weight this way but failed because they are not committed and strong minded like we are....keep on it
- I HOPE THIS HELPS- YOU CAN GET THE BODY YOU WANT- i did :) |
