Hi
Well done on a fab loss - you must feel great! Do you have any more to lose or are you at goal?

I'm on Cambridge at the moment and have about 5 stones more to lose

I'm at goal now

Hi so sorry for not replying, my computer was broken. I am now at goal having lost three and a half stone.

How are you finding the cambridge diet, I have friends on it and they find it quite hard. I don't know how you do it, no food just shakes. I had to find a diet with real food and losts of weight loss.
I'm at maintenance now and i'm enjoying my new figure.

Golower

Thank you all for your replies, I can't quite believe I have lost the weight myself. It's the first time i've ever had any real success with a diet. If you want to find more out about the diet you can visit their website, golower.co.uk. Basically you order food boxes from the website and it comes prepared to your door, all you have to do is heat it up and cook extra veg. I like it because it's real food, I don't have to spend time counting calories and it tastes really nice.
I can't recommend it enough

It's a great idea. Delivering your food for the week in a box, ready for cooking. All weighed out and counted for you.

From what I gather it's a low carb/GI diet, so you shouldn't go hungry! It works out about 1500 calories a day.

Cons: It's very expensive!!

Well done Chrissie! Great to find a diet that works for us

Hi

Hi Karion

Thanks, I feel great for losing the weight and I know i'm going to be much happier this christmas. Congratulations on your amazing weight loss.

I know the diet seems expensive, I thought so at first but for me it was worth every penny. The food box contains everything you need to eat for the month and to be honest if I added up how much I was spending on canteen luches and vending machines, i've probably saved money!!!

Chrissie

Diet: Cambridge SS
Hey Chrissie I am thinking of doing Go LOwer. Any tips ? It sounds so easy compared to SS and the results similar.

Can you drink alcohol / tea or coffee etc ? What about eating out > I have to do that for my job and that makes SS or lighter life very hard.

Do you know anyone else who has done it ?

have you still kept the weight off ?

I have about 3.5 stone to lose and I am so desp o do it by the summer .

Sorry to bombard you with questions !!

Dawn
