CD General Info forum...Please Read First

Clazzac after any kind of trauma your body needs extra protein to heal and the packs would not have enough protein so this is one of the reasons why you could not do Sole Source.

Best advice I can give is to contact your local Cambridge Weight Plan Consultant and see what they advise as you will probably be able to start on one of the higher plans to start with and work your way down into Sole Sourcing.

As you are unable to do any exercise just now you will still get good weight loss results even on the higher plans and it is an easy way to introduce the packs along with a small high protein low carb meal.

Very sorry to hear about your accident and I hope you will have a speedy recovery.

Edited to add...I have just seen you are 5' 8" and weigh 161lbs which puts your BMI at 24.5 which would prohibit you from doing Sole Source...so you would have to do one of the higher plans anyway.

Hi Mini

Thanks for your reply - that helps explain things.

Re my weight - if only it were 161lb - sadly that is my target weight and my current BMI is somewhere around 36.

I think I will do as you suggest and contact my local CDC and see what they recommend.

Thanks for the advice.

Is it recommended to do SS before trying SS+? Will the eating of eggs/veggies kick you out of ketosis? Once you're in ketosis is it better to continue with SS?

This seems to be a place for general questions -

Is there an ingredients list for CD products published anywhere? It's not on the sachets - and I don't get to see the bigger boxes that the sachets come in. I thought it was a legal requirement.

I was curious about the porridge, because presumably oats are a big carby ketosis killer... but then i found there was nowhere to find that stuff out.

Hi spangles thereis information on their website Cambridge Weight Plan: Consumer FAQs then click on 'ingredients and nutritional information' and it will provide a PDF of all the information hope it helps xx

ive recently started the diet, but i never feel hungry so ive only been having 1 milkshake a day. But the lady i see says that it will stop me from losing weight as quick.

is this true?

[lashes2ashes82]

Yes, your body will go into starvation mode which will slow down your progress, you're not getting the nutrients you need and this is very unhealthy. Even if you don't feel hungry you have to eat at least three a day. You may not have hunger pangs but you will lose concentration, become tired and irritable and irrational. Don't keep doing this, honey.

Is trout considered a white fish. Started day 1 today ?

[lashes2ashes82]

Here you go. This lists everything you can eat http://www.minimins.com/cambridge-di...additions.html (SS+ additions) and no, trout is not considered to be white fish, I'm afraid.
