Has anyone ever mixed and matched there diet???

I did cambridge for a while and wouldlike to go back on it but its quiet pricey and theres to be a 10% price increase.
On cd your allowed (for example 245g chicken and 80g of veggies/salad etc), on the s&s as you know your allowed 100g chicken and 200g veg, for me personally i would rather have the more chicken/fish, can i/has anyone ever mixed, meaning could i do s&s shakes and cd food amounts, if you have done it has it worked, im guessing youd still loose weight as its still a vlcd

You can mix as long as you make sure that you get your recommended vitamins (not too much vitamin A though), no more than around 65g of carbs, at least 50g of protein and keep your calories to a max of around 800. You can use something like My Fitness Pal to keep track.

I generally have more protein than 100g. I'll have a whole chicken breast, which is usually 160-200g and do fine with that still. It's slightly higher calorie but has had no impact.

Ah yes - but 100g of chicken breast is only around 23g of protein - the 50g of protein minimum a day I mention is actual protein rather than foods which are high in protein.

you can use the meal planner to have more chicken without a problem (the slim & save meal planner that is) they say the info sheet is basic information so you dont go wrong but if you use the meal planner you can have extra chicken or fish etc as long as your calories/ketosis guide stays in the green.

I too always have a chicken breast I don't weigh it ever or my fish never had an impact on my losses either (done cd years ago ). As long as you don't over eat on the veg list as that can knock u out of ketosis.
