Hi Theresa, Nice to see you here. Thank you for your encouraging words, but unfortunately I had to stop the CD for now. Hope I can start again on Monday. What about you? How are you doing? x

Good morning to all, Sorry for disappearing but I was very sick. On Tuesday after my wi I went straight to bed. Next day I came to work but then left and went home and after to the doctor. She gave me antibiotics and she told me that I was really bad. I have to eat properly to take my meds. At...

Good morning Laura, The weird thing is that I was feeling really good this time. Felt light too. ...What I am thinking now is that 3 days (weekend and Monday) before I start wi every day on my scales, I was eating everything in sight. Maybe I put on kilos and then lost them when I started...

Hi Traceyx, thanx for visiting my diary. Sparkling water is a good idea but a bit expensive don't you think?:) Thank you for your input...I think you are right...If I see it in the long term it sounds much easier and doable. Probably my insulin resistance problem make it harder on me...It will...

Good morning guys...I really was thinking if I was coming back here or not. I am so disappointed.... 8 days 100% SS+/step2 I just lost 2lbs and 2cm (not even an inch)!!!! I don't know what to think...I don't know what to do... My CDC was surprised too. The only reason she could think of, was...

Thank you Jussy, I already stopped the water/tea intake. My wi is at 13:15. I already had my tetra and 1lt of water. I am leaving from work, I will take the rest of the day off. I will go to my wi, then a hot bath and then to bed. If I feel better I will update you from home. Thanks Sian. I...

My birthday is on the 20th of March. However I have my father's birthday on Friday and the Christening on Saturday. I hope that I will manage to eat only what I'm allowed to eat. When I started the CD a month ago my CDC proposed I will go straight to step 2 (because of the insulin resistance)...

You willbe such a hot chick when you will reach your goal.. well done.. xx

Day 8 today and scales this morning showed 0.5kg down. Day1: 87.7 Day2: 87.2 Day3: 85.8 Day4: 85.7 Day5: no wi Day6: no wi Day7: 85.8 Day8: 85.3 I am so anxious for my wi today. I feel that I lost a lot more than my scales show...but scales show the truth right? Oh, I don't know, I really hope...

Morning Jussy. In the weekend I didn't eat anything bad to ruin my diet but I ate lots more that I should. I was in step 2, I had my lunch with chicken and salad, but in the morning I also had 1 egg omelette with some turkey in it. That was my extra. I didn't feel guilty, because if I wasn't...

good morning sweetie. How are you doing today? On the before picture I was 14.7, so not that far from your weight. Of course if you see my real body, you will change your mind..lol The last couple of days I am thinking to take pictures with my underwear...but I don't know if this is allowed in...

Did you do it? I want to see...

Hun where are you?

Ok, well let set a target for 100% CD day. Can you stick to that?xx

I am sure you will see the number you want on the scales tomorrow. My wi is today at lunch time. Can't wait...

I don't know if I could do that... Losing weight is what keep me going. Good luck.x

Hi Crazychick. I doing ok till now and waiting for my wi tomorrow. 5 lbs loss is fine, don't be disappointed!!

Good morning Emma. How are you doing?

You will get used to it, just take it step by step. x

And make sure you stay there dear!

Click on the picture (right click) and choose "copy image". Then come here and paste it.

Oh, don't worry. You will be fine and lose weight!! Just let us know how you did.

Don't worry just have in mind...green and white veggies!

Thanks dear!! xx

It's nice to get an idea of how you will look like thin!! hehe

I don't have a bad breath either, and since I don't feel hungry I presume I am in Ketosis...I don't trust Ketosticks so I didn't bother trying them out. Usually when you eat a very small amount of carbs you get into ketosis the longest in a week. I have to check this out... In the w/e I ate...

three weeks, 21lbs lost? That's amazingly well. How did you do that without CWP?

Hi avs! You shouldn't have carrots. Only green and white veggies are allowed!!!

I usually have lunch time wi's. So i have my chocolate tetra as every morning and water.

Good morning Sian. I had more food on the w/e too, but nothing to get me out of ketosis. Good you are positive and strong. My wi is tomorrow at lunch time and I can't wait.

Can anyone tell me how this rep power works?

Above:Starting weight Goal weight Ok, now they are huge. Anyway, I don't know how real is that. On the before picture...no cellulite, no hugging belly... The after picture is a real motivator though. The only minus...

A model....!!!!! Wow Scooter, that should keep you 100% motivated!! I think I will try it. So how was your w/e? x

Nice picture Pudge! Yay for another 100% day!!! x

Hi Suziepap and welcome. Your weight loss is amazing. Keep at it and don't be discourage by your scales. Wi every day works for me, even if I gain a bit. x

You are doing so good starlit. Your are pics show a lot of loss. Can you see the difference? x

You are doing great Abby...be strong. It took me three days to stop feeling hungry but after that you will feel great. xx

Good morning Jussy, you are so enthusiastic the last couple of days and this is coming towards me. Thanx for that. You doing so good and being at step 2 is amazing. Can you give us some more details about the zero noodles? Maybe the brand and a description of the package? If it's a new product...

The statistics are: Day1: 87.7 Day2: 87.2 Day3: 85.8 Day4: 85.7 Day5: no wi Day6: no wi Day7: 85.8 Not very encouraging but if I think of the w/e I had, I am ok with it. Plan for today: B: chocolate tetra L: malt chocolate bar (i hope to like it) D: chicken and mushroom soup

Good morning to all. Finally Monday. I made it through the w/e but it was tough!! I struggled every single minute. I am still in Ketosis but I have to admit that I ate a bit more than I should. Meaning that on both days I had breakfast and a lunch, while I should have only lunch. I had 1 egg...

Good for you MsJMC for starting this. Stick to the CD and you will be verry happy after a while. We can help each other. x

Christy, I am so happy to see you here...and I will be more if I keep seeing you in my diary. :) Thank you so much for your kind words. I hope to achieve this too!

Good morning. You are right Jussy, a close friends bday is not something you could miss. This is what I would if it happens. Eat from before my cd meal and then stick with a zero coke (If it's an all cakes party). If it's a party with food, I will move to step2 and eat what I am allowed to eat...

Try take your CD meal before you go or take it with you. I prefer to keep away from these events while on diet. take care dear...xx

Welcome to my diary Scooter, nice to see you here. You are right...sometimes I don't have all three of my packets. I know it's wrong and that I should have them all but sometimes i cannot force them down. I will make a promise now thought... i will try my best to have them all everyday..:) About...

Of course we will stay in touch..Thank you T.

Good morning to all. I am struggling this morning with food but till now i'm doing ok. My daughter is not good. The doctor last night set her on antibiotics, inhaled meds and also syrops for caugh and running nose....I think that my son is going to follow her...oh boy...

Bravoooo Pudge!!!!!!!! Amazing loss hun. You have every reason to stick with it now. I can't wait for my wi on Tuesday now. kissesssss

Here in Cyprus just arrived. Its a new flavor! Hopefully i ll give it a try today or tomorrow. thanx Christy

Todays plan is as follows: B: Chocolate tetra L: Chocolate chewy bar D: Chicken and Mushroom soup I only drink 1lt of water till now...long to go. Have all a wonderful w/e. Off to go now. Called me from school that my daughter is sick.

I ok these days JMC. Feeling good most of the day. I know, i know... 176lb doesn't sound very appealing but I haven't been there for 4 years and I didn't stay long either. So for me is a win win!!! Give your little angel a big hug from me!!:)

Hope so Pudge. About the clothes though...I have some options but not sure yet.... I don't know how i will look in any of them...I am not feeling very well about this. Low self esteem all this years with the extra weight... Anyway I hope I will find something to look "good" in it if possible...

Oh Jussy, thank you so much. I hope to be under 80 on my birthday on the 20th of March. I feel lighter, my clothes fit better and I feel good. Last night i got my first compliment from a friend of my husband. Felt sooooo good!!!!! You will do it Jussy, weekend it's just 2 days (I know you know...

Well done Sian. I am also 4 days 100% and I feel great. We can do it hun...all together....and we will be slim SOON!!

We are waiting for your wi hun!!

This is a realy good loss hffox. You are doing great. Keep smiling dear!!!

Don't give in temptation. Doesn't worth it. Can you ask your Dad not to say anything about your diet? It's not necessary for everybody to know...and if they ask just keep it simple and don't get into a lot of details.

Oh...don't be. Big loses will come again!

I never did a night shift so I cannot advice you, but i think your plan is fine. let us know how your wi goes tomorrow. x

Hey hffox, Happy birthday(delayed):bestwishes: And don't worry about the wi. Is not always the scale, are the inches too!! x

You can do it Jussy. We have a target here, remember?? 6lb in two weeks is absolutely doable. Stick to it!! xx

Good morning Pudge, can wait to hear your results!! xx

Theresa, you are valuable in this forum, you were the first posting in my diary and welcome me. I will miss you for sure, but you can come from time to time and visit CD forum! I will see how you are doing from the SW forum also. I can understand your dilemma. CD is not cheap but I don't know if...

How is the taste of cookies and cream shake? I bought a sachet but haven't tried yet..xx

So glad for you!!

Good Job...Those NSV are so rewarding!!!!!

So happy for you..!!:D

I wish you all the best Chick.xxx

Thank you so much MsJMC...I appreciated!!!:hug99:

Day 4 today, and still feeling good. Today scales moved slightly. I don't mind...if it goes down is still good. A total of 2kgs (4.4lbs) in 4 days!! I am very happy. Day1: 87.7 Day2: 87.2 Day3: 85.8 Day4: 85.7 If I keep at it the weekend then I can hope, that this time i will succeed. I...

Good morning!! I didn't see you post yesterday. Probably we post the same time :). I find it also motivating to wi everyday, I think it works!! My next mini target is to go below 80 kgs. I haven't seen 79 kg on my scale for 4 years now. I have a long way till there though:(, but I know that...

Don't worry...you will see a good loss on the scales. Always first week is good. However you don't have much to lose, so any loss is a good step!!!!:)

Think positively and everything will be fine. You may not losing much because you don't need to lose much! You said your are 10st and you want to lose 2st???!!! Isn't that a lot? Unless you are a small figured type...Anyway, you know better!!!! :) xxxxxx

ok plan for today is: B: chocolate tetra L: chicken and salad D: chicken and mushroom soup if i am hungry i will add a shake.

Congrats!!!!!!!!! Very very happy for you hun...x

Good job on your weight loss. My wi was planned for today but I changed it for Tuesday (my CDC is around only Tuesdays and Thursdays) I wanted to change it because I wasn't doing it correctly, and I only restarted on Tuesday as 100%. So it's going to be exactly one week when I will have my...

It will. If you were 100% you will get a boost tomorrow!!:hug99:

How are you cazza??? xx

Hi Sugar, actually I am on SS/SS+, depends on the day and how hungry I am. But I have to say that I have a lot of waste too. I don't eat much when I am on SS+ and this is usually 3 times a week. I find it a good thing because I feel so much lighter after. i don't know why, maybe are the toxins...

hi Theresa, Hope you are doing ok... We miss you!!!

Thank you Pudge! I need your good word and encouragement. After lost the first 5.5 kgs I just couldn't stop myself from binging and cheating. The problem though is that we cheat ourselves by that, not anybody else. I am holding there and I think wi everyday help me for now. How are you doing...

I am really sorry you have to go through this. I know the feeling as I experienced something similar few years ago. If you have the possibility visit him regularly, that will make you feel better as pudge said. Don't let this take you down, I know it's heartbreaking but you have to be strong for...

Almost 2.5st in seven weeks???!!!!!!!!!!!! Amazing.... Good job Tina, keep at it :D.

It is correct what Laura said. Boiling water makes the packs lose some of there nutrients. It is not necessary though to leave it cool down for a long time. Boil the water and just let it cool down for a couple of minutes. I ask my CDC and she told me that, because i had the same question. So...

That's a good sign Emma...Be strong, you can do it. xxxxxx

Oh and by the way...my diary feels very lonely lately :(. Probably I am the only one visiting it...lol. Anyway, this is an open invitation to all of you. I need your support pleaseeeeeeee.:sign0163:

Very happy for you Scooter!! I really enjoy to read your diary every day. So what kind of job you are looking. What's your field? xxxxxxx

Well done Eloise and welcome back. xxxxx

Welcome Emma. You have already taken the first most important step and you are starting the CD. It is not going to be easy but we are all here together to make it happen for each one of us. So you are in the team now. Write everything in here so we can help you and you can help us. xxxxxxxxxxxxx

What's the weight today hun?

Yestarday I've decided that i will wi every day at home. Maybe this will help me stay on track. (hopefully!!!) so I started yesterday as day1. Also my scales are different than the CDC, but if i see a loss it's ok. Day1: 87.7 Day2: 87.2 my food today will be chaocolate tetra in the morning...

I am very glad you are starting again tomorrow. You are so close to your goal, it's a pity to let it get over you. xxxx

Thanx for your support Jussy. Ok lets set a mini goal for 2.5 weeks without cheating. Actually I've been back to the track since yestarday morning. So day1 is done. At day 2 now. Everything is fine till now. I think that I have to move to step2 for the weekend to manage. Anyway, good luck to...

Hello Maryloo, well done with your weight loss. Stick to it and bigger losses may come!!! xxxx

I like toffee and walnut too, with chocolate are the two flavors I prefer.

welcome hcjxx. How much you have to lose? I will be waiting for your 1st week wi results!:) xxxx

hey Emma, how are you doing?

Hey Crazy Chick, how are you doing?

Not so good Katie. In 3 weeks i lost only 12.5lbs. First week was perfect, but after that I blew it. Now I am planning a new strategy and hopefully I will stick to it. My main problem are the weekends. So I arranged today with my CDC to set my appointments on Tuesdays (she is not here on...

Theresa, tomorrow we will be waiting to see the new hairstyle and colour!! Don't forget ha!! lol

thanx!!!!!

OMG...you are amazing!!! A loss everyday?????n Bravooooooo:happy036:

Jussy, I believe that by Thursday you will be ok and lose that extra 3lbs. After that though you have to stick to it. You are so close to your goal.... xxxxxxx

Congrats Laura for the medium size!!! Yoo hooo!!!!!! I hope your day continues like that....Oh, and enjoy the gym :D Beautiful day, I get it!! The night shifts are hard, but since you have internet, keep your mind busy in here ok? make yourself proud for your will power.

Hey smiling, great job with your loss!!!! It is a bit dangerous to visit a restaurant so early in the diet but I am sure your will manage. Try have a shake or half bar before you go and don't forget the water...

Back to track today and I am feeling strong and motivated again. Had my tetra at around 10:30 and in a while I will have my peanut crunch bar. I already drunk 1lt of water and I will prepare a 500ml tea to have with my bar. I also call my CDC and arrange our appointments from now on to be on...

Hi Christy, I am really sorry you are going through this situation. Probably your decision to stay single for a while is the best at the time being. Your little boy should come first. That doesn't mean that you have to put yourself and your health in the second place. Keep doing what you've...

You are doing soooo good and you still have so much time ahead.:clap: Keep at it.......xxxxxx

Hey Kim, you are doing great!!! It will be better next week, you will see.:scale: Don't lose your confidence. I made a mess this time in CD, but I am trying now to start fresh and on the correct path. Keep at it and you will be rewarded!!!!:wee:

Hi Starlit, I've been following your journey and I am so proud of you. I am struggling not to cheat but usually I don't hold to it. Weekends are messed up. Reading your progress the last couple of days I have decided to try more and I already changed my CDC appointments to Tuesday, so I may be...

Good morning, I hope everything today is going well for you Beautiful Day UK. Excellent plan Missymorris, but still I don't have time. Do you mind come any tidy mine too???????? :sign0009:lololol

Good morning Yvonne and everybody. you are all doing great!!! I am struggling every weekend but at the end I fall :( and every Monday I am starting again...So i have decided that I will change my wi day to Monday and I hope that this will help me go throught the weekend CD 100%. Yvonne can you...

Hang in there beautiful-day-uk!! For me it's easier while I am working. I try to keep myself busy all the time, and I avoid going around and especially in the kitchen so I don't get into temptations. Stay strong hun!!!

Don't worry, keep yourself busy at work and take your packs with you.

Welcome and stay strong..Together we can do it xxxxx

It's amazing how you are feeling after you resist something you are not allowed to eat. Great job Laura....Stay on track....you can do it!!!!;)

OMG!!! I am so tempted to buy it now. Which flavors are nicer as mousse?

Hi again hffox, actually I am doing ss+, so I am allowed a meal. This is what I followed from the 1st week and I lost 11lbs. I am insulin resistant, so it's better for me to eat food and take my pills When I lose 10-15kgs I will be able to stop my medicine and do it sole source. Are you living...

Big Mick, you are doing great!!!! amazing loss...yayyyyyy:D

Welcome AVS and stick on that plan you have. Men losing easier and faster than women do, so you will be at goal in no time!!! Hang in there!!

Good morning Theresa. Probably goals didn't help me to avoid this weekends eating. If I was using internet at home and keep getting in here would help me through it. I had no time the last few weeks, but I will def get in the internet this weekend. I am absolutely disappointed with my self but I...

Hi Jessy, and thank you for joining my diary. Insulin resistance is a problem I found out 1.5 year ago. So for me it is better if I avoid carbs. The main job of insulin is to transform carbs into glucose and transfer them to fat cells. Insulin resistance happens when the cells essentially don't...

Theresa where are you hun???

"Will let u kno how mousse goes tonight xx" I will wait for that. Didn't want to buy it and then don't like it. They should provide samples so to be able to try it first. You have to be frank thought lol...xxxxxxxx

Hi HFFox, I had a similar lost the first week, 5.1kgs but after that almost nothing, due to cheating!! As I can see you are from Limassol. I am from Larnaca but living in Nicosia. Is good to see a "neighbour" in here. xxxxxx

Come on Scooter... Some hours ago I was desperate...I was ready to dive into a pasta pot:doh:.. I only lost 1.75lb at my wi yesterday. But after reading many diaries (to get my motivation dose lol), I have decided to do it 100% this week and show myself that when you don't cheat you get good...

I think I will set some goals to my signature! Maybe that will give me some extra motivation.

Thank you so much...I need all the encouragement right now. It is difficult but you are right. I have to think today as day 1. Thank you again xxxxx

Hi Lisa, I have been reading your diary and I will be one of your supporters!! Well done with your weight loss. Keep going hun..

Hi Jussy, If you follow the steps you have nothing to be scared of. So how your wi go? xxx

Good morning... I didn't do well :(. I just lost 0.8kg (1.75lbs) and 3.5 inches overall.... I am so desperate...I am just ready to quit. Last night I don't know how I managed to stay away from food. Ok, I know it's my fault...I messed up the whole weekend, eating anything in sight. The last...

Oh ok. 500ml I can do... Have to go for my wi now. See you in a while with good results I hope!!

Way to goooooooo!!! Bravo hun.

Hi all, I want to join too. I have my own diary but it's always good to be a part of a team. My official WI is in 45 minutes...wish me luck!!!!!!!!!!!!! xxxxxxx

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!:happy096: Lets see how I will do today! :sigh:

YOU CAN DO IT HUN!!!

Hi EmmaLouise...:welcome:to the Cambridge diet!! Are you going to do sole source or SS+? Anyhow, the first 3 days are the most difficult, after you get into ketosis and you don't feel that hungry...at least that was the case with me. I have also started a diary because I think it will keep me...

Thanx Horrid, but when you say bottle you mean 1lt bottle every time? Ohhh I don't know if I can do that. I bought a water flavor the last time I attempt to start Cambridge (5 months ago), but I don't know if I can use it yet since I am in week 3. I may give a try to your method... Please stay...

Hi Amy. you will do it....There is a lot of support here...After the first WI you will be flying. xxxxxx

Today I followed the same schedule as yesterday. Chocolate tetra in the morning, peanut crunch bar for lunch and just 1lt of water. It is very difficult for me to drink all the required water. so I keep drinking teas and coffees, and again i don't manage. Are there any tricks to drink more...

Hi Theresa and thank you for your input. Finally I called my CDC yesterday to make sure and she told me that I can eat any green or white vegetable without any fear. So last night I got hungry again and I had 3 cucumbers and some turnip. I didn't eat the second snack bar I was planning to, and...

Don't torture yourself. Just get back in track and avoid scales!! You are doing great!!!

Good luck for tomorrow's WI.:)

Thank you Theresa, As I said before, yesterday I started SS....it was so hard...although my problem was in the evening. So I ate 5 leaves of lettuce. I don't know if I destroyed everything eating that but I couldn't help it. I was so hungry so tried to eat something really light. I have to...

Hello CrazyChick. You already took the first step by starting. This is a major one! Next is to keep up and for that we are here for you hun...:hug99: Let's support each other!!!

The meal plan for today is simple. I had a coffee and a tea in the morning. I had a chocolate velvet (tetra) at 12:30 and I am planning to have a craberry flavor snack now with another coffee. I will see how that goes and if I will feel hungry soon. If not i will have one chicken and mushroom...

My second weigh in was last Thursday but on Wednesday I had the TOTM. I went to my CDC I told her and she said that I might be 1-2 kilos more. I have to say that I paniced.:eek: I stepped on the scale and thank god I was over just 0.2kg (that's about 0.45lb). I was very happy because that meant...

Hi Laura, Nice to see you here and good loss!!! Wow in just 5 days!!! How much you have to lose? I have to lose about 50lb/4stones!!!:eek: I already lost 11lbs the first week so I got down to about 40lb/3stones to lose...it is amazing what a week can make!! So now we all have to be good girls...

Hi horridreflection, I have to admit that on weekend I wasn't so good either :o.... Although today is a new day and I already started SS. I will try to keep the diary running so to keep my self motivated. Yay for the good loss you managed!!!!!:D Keep up the good work!!

Hi Katie, you are doing great. I am reading your diary and getting motivated!!! :D Hope you get good results on Wednesday on you CDC's scale too..;)

Dear Theresa, thank you for your nice words, but probably you are the only one welcoming me. Anyway, it doesn't matter, I am doing this for myself.

Ok....let see... I restarted my journey on the 28th of January. I was thinking to start a diary but I wasn't sure that I could keep it running, and I was also afraid of the commitment...:sigh: Anyway, today I decided to give it a try and I hope that I will keep it till the end. Ok, I will...

Hi Rachel, I have just read your journal and I am so motivated now. So you stopped writting in here? It's been 1.5 month...Hope everything is fine and you keep the pounds away... Hugssss

Good luck Emma. I am back too. I started 3 days ago after 3.5 years.....it's hard!!! But I have to stick on it!

Thank you Lisa. I look forward trying them out. xxxxxx

You look fantastic. I need to lose 20kg too. You are such an inspiration!!!!!!!!! :)

Hi to all. I did CWP 3.5 years ago, after I gave birth to my second child. I did it for 2.5 months and I lost 3 stones. I stopped because I needed a break and never managed to get back on track. After put all the weight back, I have decided to start again. I am here because I need encouragement...
