Well here I go again on the Cambridge Diet. I've done this diet a few times over the last 25 years but my most successful time was 7 years ago, when I lost 8st 5lbs.
i vowed back then never to put the weight on again but circumstances and a very difficult period in my life saw me turn to food for comfort once again!
I now find myself at 48 years old and weighing the heaviest that I have ever weighed, very unhappy and unhealthy.
I joined Slimming World last year and although I love the diet the results were just too slow for me and with a lot to lose it makes the journey endless.
So all over Christmas I thought long and hard about it and decided that I have to give the Cambridge Diet another go.
I started on 2nd January but have been on and off the diet each day. I found this forum today and thought after reading about a lot of your successes that it would help me to focus.
My weight today is 25st 12lbs
I know that I have a massive amount of weight to lose but am going for my forst target of 4st loss in 8 weeks which I have done a few times before. I am doing SS but with 4 diets a day which suits me because if I eat anything then I come right off track. So I have to keep to sole source.
I would really appreciate some support on here as although my counsellor is brilliant it's good to speak to some like minded people.
Today is day 1 and so far so good. I've had two tetras so far and have drunk 2 litres of water. I just need to get through these first few days !!
