Afternoon all!
I've never posted on any forum before but I have been reading some of the forums on this site and was encouraged to sign up and start my own thread.
I started the Cambridge Diet Monday 13th October 2014 on sole source so I am on day 10 today.
I've been fine and not cheated once but feeling really light headed today.
I weighed in at 12st 5lbs and got weighed Sunday morning and was 11st 9lbs so 10lb off in my first week! My target is 9st 7lbs, ideally by Christmas but we'll see! Bad time of year to start really with all the Christmas dos coming up but I was just so fed up of being fat that I just had to start.
I've got 2 children. I lost loads of weight after my 1st, got down to 9st 10lbs and a size 10 - doing Slimming World. I then binned all my 'fat' clothes and spent a fortune on new clothes and underwear. I'm now 1 year on from my 2nd child and size 14 (possibly 16 but if a 14 doesn't fit I don't buy it). I have a wardrobe full of gorgeous size 10 clothes and I wont buy clothes in my size now except a basic basic wardrobe and have to wash my clothes daily so I always have something to wear! Tried Slimming World again but it just doesn't seem to be working this time round so I thought an initial boost followed by a low calorie healthy diet would be a better option for me.
First time I've ever talked about this! No-one except my husband and immediate family know about this as I don't want to be judged.
Anyway, I just thought if anyone was in a similar position to me we could support each other on the way!
Hope to hear from someone soon!
