New - Approx how much will I lose?

[Slimlouise]

Hi everyone,
you all seem really friendly. I started cambridge one week ago and have lost 11 pounds WOW.
This means I now have 2 stone and 3 pounds to lose. I was wondering how quick you lose approx?

thanks
Lou

Hiya Lou and welcome

As long as you glug the water then you should lose a minimum of a stone (14 pounds) per month.

Woah! thank for that.

I was thinking it would be a slower loss for me, as I dont really have that massive amount to lose. (Although to me it is).

So Im wrong by the sounds of it?

[icemoose]

It does slow a little as you come in to land as your body needs less calories anyway and I think it has to search for fat a bit more than when you have a couple of stone on yer belly that is nearby.

But even so you should still drop it quick!

Water is the key though!!

ok thanks for that - really appreciate it.

Oh and I must say -I did tons of research on the net before starting cambridge and I came across your blog. I know that lots of people have found it inspirational - well, I have done too. Im slowly working my way through it and it is helping me every day. So, THANK You Mike, Im another one that you can add to your list. :-)))

p.s So you did became a Counselor - although I dont know you, I am thrilled for you! Well done and thanks again.

I certainly hope to be, if I haven't reached it bang on I should think I'll be very close.

Louise, I bloomin love the Cambridge Diet!!! I found it the most easy thing in the world. No planning required, it's got me into a great habit of drinking water (I always drank diet coke) which I hope will stay with me.

I went to London on Monday and Warwick Castle on Tuesday with my Fiance, who's slim and can eat ANYTHING and I still found that fine while he tucked into his grub I had a black coffee.

I think my wedding is THE best motivation and maybe if I was getting married I wouldn't be as focused, but I like to think I would be!!!

I posted a thread the other night saying how much I love CD - I reckon everyone thinks I've lost it!!!!!!
