    Started again for the very last time

    I started Cambridge again 10 days ago after 18 months away and was horrified at the amount I have put on, 5 stone. Not only that, but I was half a stone heavier than when I started lighterlife 7 years ago.

    I had to start on step 3 as my BMI was 1 point above the max for step 2, although I can eat it is still hard and not going into ketosis makes it harder. I have decided to stick to this step for a while it makes it easier with work, plus I can hide it from people I don't want to know.

    In my first week I lost 9lb, over the moon, but week 2 seems to be tougher going

    On the plus side I found the mini minns app.


    Week 1 - 4lb
    Week 2 - 4lb
    Week 3 - 2lb
    Week 4 - 3lb
    Week 5 - 0lb (Drank Loads and Easter, so not too bad)
    Week 6 - 5lb
    Week 7 + 3lb
    Week 8 - 2lb
    Week 9 - 1lb
    Week 10 - 4lb
    Week 11 + 1
    Week 12

    Goal 1 - Lose 5 Stone - Reached on
    Goal 2 - Lose 7 Stone - Reached on
    Goal 3 - Lose 9 Stone - Reached on
    Goal 4 - Lose 11 Stone - Reached on
    Goal 5 - Lose 13 Stone - Reached on

    I restarted 2 weeks ago tomorrow, after regaining almost 4st over the last 2 years. We did it once, we can do it again.

    Well done on your 9lb loss.



    If it is to be, it is up to me!

    Taking it a day at a time.

    Get in the right frame of mind.
    Stay focused.
    Results on scales will follow.

    You'll never regret a time you didn't cheat.

    Each time you resist temptation it will be easier to resist next time. - Beck

    Well done on your 9lbs, and on being brave enough to start again, I've been putting it off for ages. I've put back on a substantial amount of the 4 stone I lost the first time round, so disappointed with myself, but tomorrow is my first weigh in so fingers crossed. You'll do it =)

    It's been a long 4 weeks, struggled with body and mind, so decided 810 is the way forward, at least comfort of ketosis. Lost a total of 1st 3lb, which is great, but I know I could have done better if I'd stuck to it even 90%. Here's hoping to a big number next Monday


    Week 1 - 4lb
    Week 2 - 4lb
    Week 3 - 2lb
    Week 4 - 3lb
    Week 5 - 0lb (Drank Loads and Easter, so not too bad)
    Week 6 - 5lb
    Week 7 + 3lb
    Week 8 - 2lb
    Week 9 - 1lb
    Week 10 - 4lb
    Week 11 + 1
    Week 12

    Goal 1 - Lose 5 Stone - Reached on
    Goal 2 - Lose 7 Stone - Reached on
    Goal 3 - Lose 9 Stone - Reached on
    Goal 4 - Lose 11 Stone - Reached on
    Goal 5 - Lose 13 Stone - Reached on

I'm not too sure how much you have to lose? But i'd love a buddy!! Messege me! & Goood luck! xx

    I feel exactly the same!! I'm nearly 22 years old & i haven't had a life at all. I want to do so many things, and i can't. Cambridge works though, so i know we'll do it! We just have to stay motivated! How much weight do you want to lose? x
