Will you do the lowest plan??? which is SS and then you can SS+ which is 3 shakes and a small meal or 4 shakes and 200ml of SSmilk and then move up gradually through all the differently benchmarked stages until you have lost all your weight and are in maintenance.

Its great more choice of flavours and products you will love it.

Hi everyone this thread is great for newbies like me i have just started SS i'm on day 6 and i'm really proud that i haven't cheated at all even with a visit to the pub and an end of uni lunch out. Got my WI tomorrow and i can't wait i'm really excited to see what i've lost as i already feel loads better. I'm not bloated anymore i feel less sluggish and my clothes feel looser, i hope i continue to feel this good. I start back on night shifts next week tho so i'm a bit worried, does anyone else do shifts how do u cope?

Hi, as many motivational stories as possible are welcomed from me. I started sole source on Tuesday and have found it quite hard, hunger not being the main thing. I really miss eating! My first weigh in is tomorrow night and I'm hoping for at least half a stone. Fingers crossed. Am v glad I found this forum though.

Hi buff girl 73, I started on tuesday too and have my weigh in tomorrow! I've realy struggled with the no eating thing too, really missed sitting down in the evening with my other half and having tea but on the bright side I weighed myself this morning and have lost a stone already! That is what is motivating me to keep with it this first week, every other day I have weighed myself and seen the pounds dropping off and I measured myself mid week and have lost 4 inches from my hips, 2 from my waist and 1 from my bust. if I hadn't weighed and measured I would have given in by now.

Well I'm not astounded but I am pleased. I've had my first weigh in today and have lost 8 lbs which I believe is not bad, would have loved double figures but then again, can't have everything. I am loving this site for motivation though, onwards and upwards, I'm really hoping for 4lbs next week. I'll do whatever I can for it. What's certain is that my appetite has disappeared pretty much now, I just don't want to get bored. If anyone has a group they could invite me into that would be great.

Have you joined a team? I'm a waterbabe and they are so great, they listen to me moan and are happy for me when I have a good day. And they all have such brilliant ideas for making it easier.
Personally, when I feel like I'm getting bored I play with play dough, it keeps my hands busy! I've found this is especially good when you're watching a film and you'd usually be snacking!

Hello everyone!

I started the Cambridge Diet last Monday - had a couple of wobbly days where I ate toast in the evening but still carried on regardless. I went to see my counsellor last night and was delighted to have lost 7lbs and 3.5inches! It really motivated me to stick with the diet this week! Reading how successful everyone on this forum is also inspires me to stick at it to reach my goal weight.

Hi everyone,

I started SS+ this Monday & my first Wi is Friday. I'm finding it quite easy ATM but I'm dreading the weekend, cause my OH has gone to Glastonbury & I'm on my own. I've emptied the fridge in preparation, but I'm not sure that's enough.
Wish me luck!

I read this thread when I joined up the first time - so inspirational! It still is, this is my 4th re-start! Spotting all the changes in members since they first posted here is amazing...

I will be up there with a before/after picture like you all!

its great to see how others are doing!

Hi everyone, I'm on week 7 of CD SS at the moment but have only just spotted this thread for some reason! I haven't cheated at all except for week 3 when I went to London with work for a training course and more or less had to eat in the evenings (but only had half of one portion of a meal!) That gave me my worst loss of 1.6lbs, so I've been too afraid to cheat ever again

Had a really good loss of 10lbs last week but my last WI yesterday I had a smaller loss again of 2.4lbs. I think that's because I've just started the dreaded TOTM though, so fingers crossed for another good loss at the next WI!

Anyway, my weight loss record is in my signature below and I'm sad enough that I can remember it word for word as I have to recite it to about 20 people at work almost every day

[laurenrosalind]

doubledebra- I do night shift work(i'm here now actually!-naughty!)

well, i'm only on day 5.. so not overly experienced.. but so far it's not been bad at all. I've not cheated- which i am so proud of- i didnt think i was capable!

I do three or four nights in a row a week. It's hard spacing the meals out right- esp.when you're asleep most of the day. But its doable!! And really not as bad as i thought it would be. Just drink your own body weight in water, and you'll be surprised at how much faster the night goes when you spend in total around 3 hours weeing!! heh. i'm trying to stretch my bladder..not working so far!

keep in touch and let me know how it's going. Nice to know someone else is doing this diet nocturnal.

blasted thing posted before I was done!
So yeah, I am very happy! Have lost 29 pounds (I weighed myself the other day, another 2 down, but official weigh in tomorrow)
and am pretty much half way to my goal!!!
Even better, my BMI is a lot better than it was!!!
My measurements have gone down, particularly the chest area!!! From 46inches to 42. And my face looks so much better! Stomach not doing as well as I would like, and I have a 'pouch' from having my daughter, just praying it will go down too!!!
but otherwise, very happy! x
