All in all, I've found that people who berate CD are the ones who actually know nothing about it, and base their incorrect assumptions on rumours and the fact that they took a few science lessons at school.

I know that I know better than them, and that they know nothing. People who question CD with me, I usually ask them to tell me what exactly CD and Sole Source entails. They can never tell me, because they have no idea. I would never embark on something I wasn't 100% sure was safe, and I have never heard of anyone's health suffering from doing CD exactly how the book says.

Having said that, she is right in that this could happen if you don't take all the packs everyday. My CDc was telling me on Monday, that last week she had a client who lost 18lbs in her first week. Astonished, she asked her what she'd been doing, and the girl replied that she had only had one shake in the past four days. My CDc ordered her straight to hospital and won't sell to her anymore.

That is just plain STUPID.. she would have known to do her 3 or 4 a day, so no brains spring to mind with her, lol. I think ppl dis the CD because they are jealous and couldn't do it themself's. The few ppl who know I am on it are very supportive and can see I mean it.. I have 4 stone to loose and now its visible to others that its coming off, thats all I need to carry this on. x

Hi,
I have had all the negative comments about the C.D. but I find I feel very enerjetic while I am on it, I loose weight regularly which I dont on any other diet in fact I find on any other diet I only seem to maintain my weight, I put two on and take two or three off with no apparant reason why. People look at obese people as if they have two heads or no control over themseves, there is often no truth in these statements, if I have any illness I get treatment but usualy I am told its because I am overwieght yet I get no help from the medical staff at the GP or hospital, if its so important to keep my weight in check then please help, dont put me down for trying the only thing that seems to work for me, come on they cant have it both ways, I say cheers for CD and as long as I can stay healthy and lose weight I will keep on using it, its not an easy cop out as some people try to imply, diets are hard whatever they are and I am sure thats its a darn site safer than going under the knife for a band or bypass I am certain that the death toll points directly at that. I shall keep going, I have managed to lose 3st7lb so far and only have about 9st to go then lets see what people have to say!!!!
