Hi new CDers

[mswobbly]

Ooh! Thank you MiniMimi! I am actually looking forward to not worrying about cooking and what to eat! It will all be there, pour, add water and shake! I do have a child and I have to cook for him but I hope I'll manage! I will look to here for inspiration!
Thank you!

Once you get through first three days you'll be surprised that any food appeal will no longer be existent. In very strange way I actualy enjoy smell of the food without wanting to eat anything. You'd be surprised how many well forgotten senses you're going to rediscover all over again. Once again, good luck with your journey hun xxx

Ah you're great! Thanks ever so much for your words! I'll keep you posted! I just hope my car doesn't break down on the way to see my new CDC tomorrow!
Thanks again!

Hi everyone,
I met my lovely new CDC today, an inspiration and so nice! I was late and almost got lost but found her. I had it in my head to start on Monday but I thought, "why wait til Monday?", I am starting tomorrow and I am hyped up about it. I am being realistic about it and I know the first few days won't be easy but I will push myself to over come any barriers and I really think support from my CDC, here and my sister (the only one who knows I'm doing this) will help enormously!
Yipee!!!

HI

I started this diet yesterday and apart from a few issues with bad breath it seems to be going ok. The food is lovely, especially the apple and cinnamon porridge. I am finding it very hard to cope without my cups of tea, i used to drink between 10 and 25 cups a day with milk! and now i am down to one black cup a day which is all i can stomach without milk. I think my biggest challenge so far has been cooking dinner for my partner and our children because the food smelled so good. I am determined to get this weight off and keep it off and i believe this is the place to come if i need support or help.

Hello Everyone,

I started this diet last Monday (25/01/10) and have had my ups and downs. The expected terrible first 4 days weren't and I found them very easy, then day 5, 6 and 7 I was desperate to eat something! I fought really hard through this then realised that as I had seen my CDC on a Thursday, started on Monday then was to get weighed on Monday night, I didn't have enough shakes!! I managed to get through Monday with a shake I acccidently missed due to long nights rehearsal then scrambled egg no milk and a cod fillet. Luckily this was OK and I lost 7lbs. Resisted getting a chocolate bar that was screaming out to me and now I am feeling better again. Into my second week and my comfort for tonight is going to be a bath! My profile is very basic I will try working on it. Look forward to making a pal and having/giving some encouragement. XX

Day 3 and i've woken up feeling absolutely awful, been puking all morning and just want a nice cup of tea with milk in it!!!!!! Had a headache since yesterday evening which just won't go away and it's getting annoying now. I'm not hungry but just feel like stuffing my face with toast coz it always makes me feel better. I had to get some chewing gum yesterday coz my breath has been so bad my partner can't look at me when i'm talking or if he does he covers his face so he can't smell me. Feel like just going back to bed until tomorrow!!!

I'm another CD newbie, do any teams have spaces?

[Jinxed]

Hi Everyone,

Just thought I'd upgrade my progress so far.
I'm still trying to drink lots of water as I know this helps and unfortunately the shakes in the evening make me gag a bit, but I feel the strongest I've been even when hungry as I really want to lose weight and not waste time cheating! I bought straight away fibre clear and have about 3 heaped teaspoons a day, this has meant I have no problems if you get what I mean. I have also got into the habbit of looking at all the lovely clothes I dream about on the computer every night. This helps me soooooo much as I really want to get nice tops and things. The only thing I am still not very good at is the excercise, as in I'm not doing any \ I am going to start making an effort by just starting on a nice walk once a day then hopefully up to two etc.
Hope everyone else is doing OK!

Hi everyone,

I start on CD tomorrow on the 1000kcal step before moving down to Sole Source Plus. I'm feeling both apprehensive and excited and just hope that I have enough willpower to get through. I've tried so many diets etc over the years and had limited success but each time I put the weight back on and more. Over 12 years I've put on 7 stone and I was actually horrified and disgusted when I saw myself in a large mirror the other day.

Hope to chat to some of you soon

Well here's hoping that we all manage to lose our excess weight.

Day 1 went better than I thought, am a little hungry and struggled with the amount of water but I managed it.
