I have never tried the porridge. I've never been a fan of them so didnt even try them on Cambridge. If you don't like them, your CDC should be able to change then for shakes.Originally Posted by shmoos

More water.
I can't stand the texture if they're made with the amount of water specified on the packet. So I make them using that amount of water (otherwise they boil over in the microwave) then add a bit more water from the kettle so that it turns out more like oaty soup.

I am responsible for my efforts (behaviours: food intake & exercise),
not for my results (outcomes: the timing of the numbers on the scales)
Lost 5 and a half stones between October 2007 and April 2008 (doing Cambridge Diet). Unfortunately, many of the f*@!*#! found me again.
I can't eat the porridges in the first few days as I find my taste buds aren't ready yet! Once I am a few days in I absolutely adore the porridges (all three of them) and I now eat them at least once a day.
Everyone is different and everyone likes different things. I cannot stomach the soups. Not at all, not even a tiny bit. Bleurgh. But some people feel that way about the shakes/bars/porridge!

I haven't tried the porridges. The thought of them turns me right off. However I love the shakes, soups and bars - it helps to be easily pleased on this diet!
I agree with babymumma2, talk to your CDC and you can swap for something else.
I am on day 3 of my diet and im feeling really shaky and weak, is this normal?? x x
I had a porridge in my first day of Cambridge and I literally vomited it back up and since that fateful day in July i can't bear to bring myself to try one again! I'd say avoid!
The first week will be pure hell as you're going through carb/ sugar withdrawals it takes on average 4/5 days to get into ketosis! Just stick with it Hun you'll get through it!
