    Starting Today

    I have started the Cambridge diet today after failing on LL a few months ago. I am determinded to do it this time. But since starting today, I am having to work from home as our offices flooded (too much bloody food at home and cant chuck it out as everyone else has to eat), so I have to spend the day working from home on my own !!!, oh dear. Also made a butterscotch mouse this morning and it looks like poo !! sorry to be so graphic but it is all lumpy, like gelatine lumps in it, what did I do wrong ?. So I am one lumpy mouse, one pint of water and one black tea in and I need help already !! Is there anyone else starting today ??

    13 Stone 7 lbs Start weight

    Week 1: 12 Stone 8lbs = 13 lbs loss
    Week 2: 12 Stone 6.5lbs = 1.5lbs loss
    Week 3: 12 Stone 2lbs = 4.5lbs loss
    Week 4: 11 Stone 11lbs = 5lbs loss
    Week 5: 11 Stone 7lbs = 4lbs loss
    Week 6: 11 Stone 3lbs = 4lbs loss

    Diet: Want to start Cambridge, currently half hearted WW
    Hi Claire

    I posted on the hourly thread too, but just in case you don't get it.

    Me, my sister (slimforlive) and hubby (KramRolyat) all started today. I have the most to lose (wahhh) but know this is the diet for me. I've not done any VLCD before, just Weight Watchers and Slimming World, so I'm still in the "it's all new and exciting" mood lol

    I've had about 2.5 litres of water and 2 Choc Tetra's so far and will be trying my first soup tonight. I'm lucky that it's only me and hubby at home so we threw out all temptation yesterday, so even if I did want to crack I couldn't!

    How much did you lose on LL?

    L

    Diet: Want to start Cambridge, currently half hearted WW
    Hi

    Yeah you could easily be at Target for Christmas. My Goal is April next year when I'm going to Florida.

    And at least by Xmas I won't feel like a Walrus anymore lol

    A friend of mine did LL but didn't last that long ... but she doesn't really stay that long on anything lol A friend of my Sis's lost 5 stone! I've done the group thing with Weight Watchers and Slimming World ... and I have a low threshold for idiots and there's always at least one so I'm glad CD is a more individual thing!

    I'm at work right now, trying to keep myself busy! I don't feel hungry at all at the moment, but that's probably because my body is still feasting on what I ate over the weekend lol

    L

    Have you tried any of the games on the Arcade pages? They're really addictive!

    Sounds like you've both got some nice goals to work for, think it helps when you're feeling ready to crumble to remind yourself why you're doing it in the first place
