Hey all, yeah not great... Been off diet since valentines day when I broke it in spectacular fashion. Now my back is better, was back at the gym today and back on the diet, weight day on Friday, nervous!

Don't worry, that's nothing and probably just water retention... Keep going!

Big Ben, well done! How often are you weighing yourself!!!!!!??!!!!!!!

More motivation for us to lose weight then! Good luck with your weight loss

I'm not sure, I picked up something heavy yesterday morning without bending my knees, then went to the gym. After 30m on the cross trainer I started feeling a niggling in my hip so I stopped, by the time I got home I was limping. I lounged on the sofa for 20m and when I got up to shower, I was...

My last weigh in wasn't great either, just 1lb. Hoping my monthlys are to blame and for a good loss tomorrow. :) Keep up the good work everyone!!!

I know, takes forever to make... If I'm exercising loads, is it still cheating to have a little extra protein???

I lost just 1lb this week... Not great, but a small step in the right direction...

Jellibelli, I tend to have a shake for brekkie, a shake for lunch, then for dinner I have a soup with either chicken, fish or 2 poached eggs chopped up in the soup and veggies. Then the soup feels quite hearty, well, I think so... My partner looks at me pitifully while he tucks into a HUGE carby...

Did you know (once we've got to a good weight) there's a bread in waitrose that's more protein and less carb? I think I'll be switching to that in future...

Wow 6lb is awesome! Well done!!! What's everyone's starting weight? (If you wanna share) I was 15s 1lb on 7th Jan but have started this challenge at 14s 3lb Weigh day tomorrow!!!

My consultant says some lose faster on ss+ than ss... Not sure how, maybe keeping up metabolism or something?

4.5lb! Wowser!

Wow 22 fat burning people so far! This is such a good idea! :)

No it's not just you, I think it's all of us! All I would say is... If you feel a cheat coming up, stick to protein! Ignore that evil carbtastic macaroon! Kicks you out of ketosis for a few days!

Don't stress jellibelli, it must be so hard on ss, I started on ss+ and really just the first week was hard. There's only a couple hundred kcal difference in it, it's not going to make a huge difference to how long it will take...

I started at the gym today! Hooray! Well done me, even though I do say so myself!!! Let's see if this speeds weight loss up :) Well done on the losses so far everyone!

Smashing bread while highland dancing hahahhahahha. Don't dismay, your body is just adjusting, you'll probably lose loads next week

Weigh day on Friday, seems like AGES ago! This week is going VERY slowly. Mix-a-mousse is impossible to make without lumps blurghhh any advice? Gym tomorrow... I feel freezing too, all the time. Keep going everyone!

Well, good luck with it everyone! Keep motivated and drink water. :) :) :)

Yeah i think for me, knowing it can take days to get back into ketosis helps me avoid snacking on carbs. Yesterday I was starving, so ate a couple of slices of ham. Could've eaten the whole pack, in an omelette, with cheese, and chips, and mayo... But didn't. Then I wonder how I got in this state!!!

When's everyone's weigh day? Mine's Friday :)

Don't forget me!!!! Theria - 0lb lost 50lb to go Big Ben - 0lb lost 50lb to go Missmiff - 0lb lost 50lb to go Bee32 - 0lb lost 50lb to go Chezz - 0lb lost 50lb to go Mairead - 0lb lost 50lb to go Porkscratching - 0lb lost 25lb to go 25????? MrsMcGregor - 0lb lost 50lb to go Muhachka - 0lb...

I'm 14s 3lb now, have lost 12lb so far, still have another 63 to go... But I like this 50lb together thing :) great idea!

Yep!!! Count me in! I'm feeling motivated!

Yeah I was bloated before, I found having my last meal by 6pm has really helped. My consultant is nice enough, she's brought me samples of water flavourings and mix a mousse before buying which was good of her I think, but she's been a bit slow on the couple of questions I've had for her...

Right I'm on my next 1.5litre bottle after reading all that. From now on gonna drink 3 a day so 4.5litres. I suppose if it really does help with weight loss then it's worth it. My consultant brought some water flavour samples for me today and gotta say, I'm loving them! Makes water much more...

5 inches off waist is great! Well done! Keep up the good work. I have a question, how much water are you all drinking? Apart from coffee/tea/products I'm drinking about 3 litres... Is that not enough?

I live in North london but my parents are Spanish... Well done on your losses!!!

Well done everyone!!! I just had another weigh in after changing weigh day from Tuesday to Friday, so it's only been 3 days, but I lost 1.8lb, in 3 days!!! I'll take that! Woohoo!

Well done everyone!!! I just had another weigh in after changing weigh day from Tuesday to Friday, so it's only been 3 days, but I lost 1.8lb, in 3 days!!! I'll take that! Woohoo!

Thanks for the welcome everyone... Weigh day again tomorrow. Last weigh in was only Tuesday, but weigh day changing permanently to Fridays now... Hoping for at least 1lb in 3 days!!! :D KEEP GOING EVERYONE!!! Gotta go, super fat super skinny is on...

I'm getting weighed tomorrow too... Last one was only Tuesday but changing weigh day to Friday from now on... Wish me luck! Good luck everyone! Xx

Not yet cos I've been feeling quite tired, but I have a new gym membership so I might start doing light stuff soon to avoid too much after loss wobble... Yuk

18lb in 2 weeks! Wow that's amazing! Well done! :)

Hi everyone! I'm new here. I have 5st 3lb to lose, and started Cambridge diet 7th Jan. My weight loss so far is - Week 1 - 7lb Week 2 - 4lb I want to be at my target weight by August so I can wear a size 12 bikini :) THIS IS THE LAST TIME I'LL DIET! I'm going to get there, and stay there Well, I...

You guys are very supportive I must say! :) I'm on ss+ but I want to lose FAST so, contrary to what my stomach tells me, I'm no longer eating anything after 6pm to see if it speeds things up and helps the morning bloated feeling. This evening had chicken and mushroom soup with 2 boiled eggs...

Have no idea why I woke up so bloated... Sigh. I cheated yesterday by eating more broccoli stalks than 80g, pathetic way of cheating I know, but for how I feel today I might as well have eaten a family sized lasagna. Water is an issue... Maybe it's that. Gonna try those water flavours I think...

Has anyone tried the mousse thing? Is it any good? What about water flavours? Any recommendations girlies? (And boys if there are any here!)

Good going LadyJayne. 2nd weigh in today, lost just 4lb, but I'm very happy with that cos I have under active thyroid, so it's always hard for me to lose. Started at 15s1lb Week 1 - 7lb Week 2 - 4lb I'm giving myself 7 months to get to my target of 9s10lb... So... Time: 6.64% Progress: 13.83%...

I'm pretty sure a fanta zero won't stop you losing weight. I've got weigh day tomorrow, but I don't feel I've lost like my first week which was 7lb. If be happy with 3lb really. I struggle drinking water. Has anyone tried the water flavours? Does it help?

I was massively grumpy yesterday and forced my hubbie to take me out to dinner ? ate sea bass and Greek salad, made me feel better but feeling guilty today. Sigh... I'm such an emotional eater. Do you think it will affect my weigh in on Tuesday? Annoyed with myself...

Phew dizzy dizzy dizzy... Is anyone else too?

15lb!?!?!? Bloody hell that's amazing! Wow! Well done you! This diet is really quite amazing and really does get easier as time goes by... Love that feeling of being a little thinner in the morning, no better motivation. Keep going everyone! ?????

Hi everyone So weigh day was yesterday, and I lost half a stone on my first week. I'm very happy with it because I have an under active thyroid and it's difficult for me to lose. Also, if any of you use iPhone or iPad, download the MyWeight app. It's an awesome weight tracker. I'm giving myself...

Well done everyone! Keep going!!! 1st weigh day tomorrow - can't wait! Wish my luck! I was 15s1lb last Tuesday. Does your consultant give you ketostix anyone?

I was too scared to order the porridge and am sticking to shakes and soups! My stomach rumbles so loudly! Does anyone know if it'll quieten down eventually?

Day 4, I've got no headache, but now I don't feel hungry at all. I think my food spirit is broken! Haha! Yesterday I could've eaten a scabby monkey. I have over 5 stone to lose. I can't wait for Tuesday and my first weigh in...

Wow! 2 stones in 5 weeks?!? Hope I lose that fast!

Hi people! So I started 7th Jan too... I'm motivated and excited to get this done. My stats... 7th Jan - 15 stone 1lb Target - 9 stone 10lb ONLY 5 stone 5lb to go!!! ? If I really stick to the diet properly, how long should it take to lose it? What do you think?
