    I first did Cambridge very successfully back in 2008, through one reason and another I find myself with a fair amount of weight to lose again. My question is this:

    Will I still see the same losses as I did the first time as long as I stick to it 100%? I've tried unsuccessfully over the last couple of years to lose weight with this diet, I've dabbled and cheated. Have I messed up my metabolism for good, so that the diet won't work as successfully this time? Is it likely to take me a lot longer to lose a similar amount of weight (I've set my target lower this time).

    Sorry that was more a barrage of questions than one question!

    Thanks Chrissy, I am firmly committed, and I will do it properly for as long as it takes. I'm just trying to judge whether I can still expect the 1st a month loss that Cambridge say to expect. Or whether my metabolism will be messed up. I've heard so many conflicting things over the years.

    I was wondering that myself, But the 1st week I did cambridge last year I lost 10lbs, This week (only been 4 days since my last weigh in) I've lost 11lbs, I think everyone varies, Maybe my body just really wants me to get thin lol! I need to lose weight or I may need surgery on my spine, I'd rather avoid that if I can lol!xx

    If that's not motivation I don't know what is, well done for the loss so far. For me the first time I lost 9lbs the first week so I'm only 2lbs down on that with a day to go, I shouldn't complain really.
