    First weigh in ..... soooo happy!!

    Congratulations thats a fantastic loss!! That is amazing in the first week! Remember to stay focused though. If you allow yourself "one treat" and it doesn't reflect on the scales - then you may be tempted to have a slightly bigger treat the following week... and it can easily spiral out of...

    Boredom?

    Anyone getting bored of the flavours? I know CD has got the best selection of flavours BUT, in all honesty, I don't like the hot stuff. (ie soups) I love the shakes mixed with crushed ice for a "real milkshake" feel... But that's it! ( I like chocolate hot with P-husks, but I'm getting...

    Confession time!!

    Just to add.... I was on SS for 5 weeks (decided not to do a full AAM) - as I new I had some "special occassions" coming up which would be near to impossible to skip the meal. Thus, this weekend I had a hen party which included a 3 course meal in the evening. ( I SS'ed all the was till the...

    On 790 but Thinking of switching to SS

    Yip, 3rd of March.. Really excited. 1 more problem though. Hen night is this Saturday. I received the menu via email (we need to choose I meals in advance) and there are no salad options. Everything appears to be with cream, fried or risotto (serious carbs) even the veggies are "glazed"...

    Food for thought

    My penny's worth... I too lost a significant amount of weight before - through "happyness" and "contentment" in my relationship - I gave up exercise and opted for yummy nights in or good food out! There are two lesson to be learnt once at or near your goal (IMHO): 1. Keep getting weighed...

    On 790 but Thinking of switching to SS

    Hi TM, The wedding is going to be very difficult because not only is it the wedding day (ie meal), but my OH are flying to the area, staying in a posh hotel for two nights (special treat booked before we decided to start CD). So its the breakfast's too! I can only say that we will take some...

    On 790 but Thinking of switching to SS

    Hi Tiara-Maker, I'am not sure about moving from 790 to SS - but I can tell you that my OH & I have decided to do SS, not to have AAM, but simply pin-point special days that we will eat. Our CDC is okay with this as we are making an effort to plan. So far between now & e/o March we have...

    Food for thought

    Psyllium husks - yuck yuck yuck!!!

    Can I suggest you give it one more try before you sell. I had some "trial and error" before I decided I liked them. The first time was too sticky, the next time it became one lump. Now, my method is: Mix up hot water (circa 300ml) & chocolate shake until ready to drink. Then, put ONE...

    Dont like these meal bars

    Thanx flirty. My CD says they're not popular so she doens't get them. (I will try push her to get a few!) I'm drinking about 3 almost 4 litres of water a day. (To try compensate for tetra brik & bar.) As I am 5.10, I have 4 "shakes/soups/bars/briks" a day.

    I'm coming size 12's!!

    Wow - I have almost completed 4 weeks on CD. I've got a weigh- in tonight, I am hoping for a 3lb lost, to take me to 20lbs. If I can see a difference in you (WHICH I CAN...judging from your photo's) then I am sure others can see a difference in me!! You are looking great!

    Dont like these meal bars

    My CDC only has peanut bars & caramel bars. My OH loves the peanut bars (reminds him of peanut butter!) and I love the caramel bars. Eating it feels like having a treat! I must say, they don't really fill me up as much as a shake does. As the others have said.... your tastes change...

    Day 26.. hunger pangs

    Hi All, any suggestions... All of a sudden I have started suffering from hunger pangs. I am still in ketosis & drinking all my water. No exercise either. For the last two days, an hour before lunch time I am hungry. Then 4pm, I'm hungry again. When I get home I have been having husks...

    I only lost 8lb wk 1, does that mean my other losses will be less than 3lb a wk?

    I can only really comment on my own experience: I have 7st to loose. First week I lost 7lbs, which I thought was a bit disappointing – but I did prepare for my start by drinking more water, less carbs etc. Second week I lost 6lbs, then third week 4lbs . Technically, I have lost over 1 stone...

    Cold & Flu....What can I/cant I take

    Hi All, Thank you all for your previous answers to my "measurements question". I have another - I have a stinking cold. Nose is almost raw from all the sneezing and blowing (yuk, I know!) Normally I would take some vitamin C, eat some fruit, take beechams - and generally hope for the...

    CD - Mixing the shakes/soup

    Hi All, I could call my CDC, but your all so helpful with varying views.... On the packaging it says to mix with "a minimum of" 227ml. Can we use more water? ie to make the soups less concentrated? If so... how much extra would be excessive. (I'm not sure if the ml is precise as it...
