I all I have just come across this fab site. I have started cambridge today. I get married in April and would like to lose 3 stone. When I went to uni ten years ago my weight started to creep up - too many takeaways and alcohol!! By the time I had finished my course I was 2 stone overweight. Throughout the next ten years I yo yoed - losing the 2 stone with slimming world and then putting it all back on again. I had a baby 2 years ago and I am now the heaviest I have ever been. My wedding in April is now my main focus and inspiration to lose weight. I am doing sole source and if I'm honest I am nervous about being able to stick to it. Any hints, tips or support would be gratefully appreciated xxxx
 
It is a fab site isn't it Louise. Well done on completing day 1 !. I am on day 4 today and haven't found it too hard. Loads of really inspirational posts here which are invaluable on such a tough plan.( Tough but doable) Plenty to drink is the thing that has got me this far. lots n lots of luck to you :)
 
I wouldn't like to give any advice Louise as I really don't know too much about the specifics of the plan.(sorry) Post on someones diary who has been doing it for a few weeks .People will be only too happy to answer any questions you have. Is your cambs. counc. approachable?
 
Ooh just saw Mini reply as I'm typing. Now we know! Off to have a bubble bath now then straight to bed....for about 10 minutes til I need to pee! Stay strong and lots of luck tomorrow:)
 
Hi Louise,

I'm another bride too and started on Monday. Day two was my worst so far - felt awful. My CDC said to take a paracetamol if needed and I did on Day two! Stick with it - it'll get better once you get into Ketosis.

i looooooove the butterscotch shake , i also love the Toffee & Walnut & the cappacino one , they are fab. Tried the vanilla this mornning with crushed ice and a spoon of coffee in it and it was amazeballs , keep up the good work xx
 
OOH - wasn't a huge fan of the butterscotch myself. I was rather disappointed as I was hoping for butterscotch angel delight (perhaps that's where I went wrong!) :lol:

Hi Kirsty!!! I keep looking at pictures of my wedding dress it's a great motivator!
Day 4 today - last 2 days I've got to end of day and realised I still need to fit 2 shakes in as I haven't been hungry. I'm gonna have them at set times today I think

Haha I'm guessing you figure "marked" was "married" then haha Oopsie iPhone autocorrect!!


I'm just starting day 3 now! And I did ss+ yesterday and struggled to fit in my last shake. But forced it in at 930 I think it was lol!

I know my dress fitting isn't till nov! Where I get sized and dress ordered. So I'd like to be back down to my lowest again. 3 months and just over 3 stone. Is it achievable :/ xxx
 
They say an average of 1 stone a month so definitely. I have already ordered my dress and it's fits as I am now a size 16 but I've been told it can be taken in 2 sizes so this is what I'm hoping to do. Plus it's also a lace up back to can be pulled in and tighten until I'm blue in the face to show of the waist I will hopefully have!!,
