hi, its my 6th weigh in and i too have only lost 2lb, so i know how you feel...absolutley gutted :(

well done!

i use mine twice a day but when this packs ran out im not getting any more, you dont need to see that your in ketosis when the weights coming off ( says me lol)

i have a coffee at 9.30am another one at 10.30am, then i have a shake at 11am, 4.30pm and 9pm, i have coffees and sometimes water in between, and i have a bouillon at about 10pm.

ok i times my weight by 14, so 15x14 then i add on the 1lbs, so im 15 stone 4lbs, you do this 15 x 14 + 4= the amount of pounds you are.. 214lb, if you want to count down from lbs to see how much weight you are in stones then 214-14 then keep pressing the = button each time you do count...

ive had a gastric band.

well its my 6th weigh in today and guess what, ive only lost 2lb!!!!! i am gutted, :( i use to lose more on SW!! but will stick to it, i might get a bigger loss next week.

well done! x

hi noddy, good luck with your first weigh in, i bet youve lost loads! its my 6th weigh in tomorrow, im not feeling optimistic lol x

ive been on SS for 6 weeks and i always feel drained and tired, i could just go back to bed right now lol its not got any better, i just feel knackered all the time :( x

wow well done! x

hi gemma, just want to say welcome back and good luck! x

hi, i was with my CDC for about 45 mins, she weighed me, measured me, gave me my packs, asked for my doctors address, filled out a health form, told me about the plans and showed me her fake 1lb and 5lb fat blobs! she let me try a banana tetra pack ( but then charged me for it lol) and i went...

hi, just wanna say welcome back and good luck! x

good luck for tomorrow, im very sure you will have lost more than 2lbs lol x

i think its a great idea, and wish that i could do it but i get weighed 3 times a day! i tried putting the scales into my partners boot of his car but i begged him to get me them back lol! x

very useful post thanks! x

well done thats brill!! x

hi, since starting CD i have not had one day where i feel ok, but i dont care as long as the scales keep moving! its hard but it may get better, well done for resisting all those things! x

no, i checked before i went out, i think the biggest reason not to drink whilst on Cd is that you have no food in your stomach, drinking when not eaten is dangerous in itself, when i did atkins and was in ketosis all the time, i drank every weekend and was fine.

hiya, just wanna say good luck!!! Nikki x

hi, ive done 6 weeks of SS on wednesday, although i have had a few days of, my weigh-ins are every wednesday, i have lost 25lb so far, let us know your weigh in results! nikki x

terrible lol, no you go for it! personaly when i have been out i was weak and had something to eat so it kicked me out of ketosis so i could drink alcohol! everyones different though and a lot enjoy themselves without the need to eat or drinnk! x

i have been bleeding for four weeks now ( on and off) very annoying!

lol yes the 3 course meal you shared, how lovely was that!! :) good luck Al, although your missus reckons you are doing great so i doubt you will need it! x

i have been told its 2 tsps a day ( 2 cups) i tend to use them both in one cup though with loads of pepper, yum

lol diddums, its horrible isnt it!! Allypo, my periods have been all over the place, i havnt stopped bleeding since week 2 and its my 6th week soon!

asda sell it, but i bought one from yoga matters...http://www.yogamatters.com/productlist.aspx?red=1 a huge 1kg tub for a tenna, will last me forever!!

i think..whats the point of wasting money of cambridge when you want to mix it with atkins, why not just do atkins alone? cambridge is classed as a very low calorie diet, atkins is a ketogenic diet, so actually two very different plans.

well done on a fabulous first week!! x

you might not have gained anything so try not to worry about it, just move on, do get weighed though! you might be suprised! ( i had 5 days off over xmas and lost 4lb!)

i got my sticks for £5.00 on ebay, cappachino also made me gag lol, yuk, the shakes i prefer are banana strawberry and forest fruits, gone right off all the choc ones!

stick with it, your hungry because your not in ketosis, when you are the hunger will fade, buy your sticks of the internet next time lol what did the woman say in boots? id have told her to sod of lol x

im a ***** at the best of times lol but now im really bad!! feel sorry for everyone around me but just cant stop myself, im just so angry and irratable! i cant sleep much wither and im knackerd all the time, someone mentioned teeth, well when i clench mine together they feel kind of...

i get on the scales every morning and every night, sometimes it says ive lost, sometimes it says iv gained ..upto 5lb sometimes!! but it all comes down to your offical weigh in, thats the only time it really matters x

when i was on Slimming world before i had my baby ( before i was pregnant) i had a weekened of agony, i very nearly had to go to hospital, i wont go into it but it was the most painful weekend of my entire life! anyway lol, i took fibre89 when i started CD its a powder that you add to your...

i love marigold vegatable bouillon, like the Cd vegatable one but much nicer! ( and cheaper!)

wow, i cant believe you didnt feel it, what a difference! x

yes ive been like that since day 7, im moody, irratable, snappy, ect, ive been on CD nearly 6 weeks and it hasnt got better, my partner has learnt to put up with me and not take it personal lol

well done sharon, 5lb is great for a week!! i havnt managed more than 4lb a week since my big first week loss lol :(

well done, a great weeks loss!! x

im always freezing!!!!

my first week was 11lb, then its just been 3 or 4 lb a week, which to me is great as with all other diets i only use to do 1-2lb a week, i have lost 25lb in 5 weeks so that is a good rate of weight loss.

wooo hoooooo well done!!!!!! x

hi, yes i have a 4 month old baby girl, i started the CD diet when she was 3 months old, i still feel funny but i think its lack of water and too much coffee so im going to try harder, if you worried about your daughter she should be ok as the packs have all the vitamins and protein ect that...

well done"! keep it up! :) xx

woo hoo, go for it! you sound very determined so im sure you can do this! good luck! x

wow that cetainly makes a lot of sense, thank you, i guess ill have to drink more water and less coffee and see how i go, giggly, thanks, if drinking more water dosnt work i guess ill just have to move about slowly lol x

thanks Sharon, i tested my blood sugar earlier which my daughters machine ( shes diabetic) and it was fine, at least if it was low i would have had a reason, but im still stumped!

hi, im doing cambridge SS, my current BMI is 33.8

Hmmm you know, i have been drinking more coffee and not enough water, do you think this is why?!

i found they taste VILE hot lol

hi, you have to wait until the baby is 3 months old before you can go on CD,regardless of how they were born. :)

aww it only felt like yesterday when i had that pregnancy ticker! Lexie was meant to be my last but i do want another ( weight gain holds me back though as i always gain 4 stone in pregnancy and dont lose it when they are born!)

thats exactly whats happening to me! i feel the darkness creeping over my eyes, i dont fully black out as it creeps away as fast as it came! its just wierd as ive been doing this 5 weeks and its not happened before!

blood sugar is 5.1 so normal, so i havnt got a clue why i feel like this!

thanks everyone, my daughter has cystic fibrosis and diabetes so im just going to go check my blood sugar lol be right back!

hi, when i had my first weigh in with her a week after i started she told me she was going away for 3 weeks for xmas, so i had to buy 4 weeks packs upfront! i had to find £160 in 2 days and it left me skint, when she rang this morning she said if i didnt have enough food packs left then to go to...

ohh no wonder my CDC never mentioned it to me!

no, no chance of that, i have a 4 month old baby already lol, i had the contraceptive injection when she was 5 weeks old so i cant be.

for the last 2 days i feel funny, like my minds cloudy if you know what i mean, yesterday when i was at the shops i bent down to look at something, when i stood up i started blacking out so i held onto the side of the shelf until it passed, it has happend 3 more times today and im getting a bit...

hiya, first of all welcome! people do recommend that you cut down carbs and drink more water a week prior to starting, this will help with carb withdrawal, although i didnt do any preperation, i had a huge indian take away the night before and i never had any side effects, i started with SS as...

ohhh good luck! i was really excited at my first weigh in as i knew i lose weight i just didnt know exactly how much and was shocked that it was 11lb!! x

aww thank you! thats so nice :) i just want to get weighed properly and chart in down on my little green record thing they give you, but theres only one weight in there, there should be 5 showing all my losses :(

i started CD as i have a lapband which dosnt want to work at the minute! im going to try and get to goal on CD then have my band filled really tight so i cant eat much, i would be so scared to put all the weight back on so i know how you feel! x

hi myrtle, im 15 stone 6lb, i have 4 kids, all girls too! aged 13, 9, 4 and 4 months you can have my email if you like?

if i got down to a size 10-12 i wouldnt care less what the scales said!!! :) x

yep you are in ketosis, and thats the perfect colour for it!

anti B`s shouldnt take you out of keto, i dont think theres much in them.

hi sorry i was wrong, i just found a book i havnt even read yet with my packs from CDC it says for SS+ .....3 packs plus 200kcal meal, or 4 packs and 200mls skimmed milk.

thanks every one, berry she is ok, but the first time i got weighed a week after i started she was meant to come to my house as i have 4 kids including a 4 month old baby but she rang me at the time she was due and said she cant leave the house because shes waiting for a delivery so i had to get...

hi its my 5th week on CDSS, i have only seen my CDC twice, once for the first meeting and once a week later for a weigh in then she went on holiday and was meant to come and weigh me today, ive not been weighed properly for 4 weeks, i have been doing it myself but my scales are out by 3lb i...

well done! half a stone gone in a week! fantatsic!

hiya i was 17 stone 3 when i started 5 weeks ago! im 15 stone 6lb now :) good luck! x

i pay cash too £40 a week.

hiya, when i started Cd i agreed with myself that if occaisons came up where i could eat ( birthdays, nights out ect) then i was going to have the day off and not feel guilty about it, im not reccomending this to anyone, im going out with friends on the 17th Jan, so im having that day off, so i...

well done, yes im always freezing now! i wore pj`s socks and a dressing gown for bed the other night, my parter said the house was warm, well i wasnt!

hi, i have read that you do need to eat before an op, but doing atkins would be fine as food is food lol

hi, if your on SS+ then you have 4 packs a day regardless of height, good luck! x

i dont usualy have willpower lol, but im determined this time! x

wow, well done! See everyone, it can be done!! x

im 5 weeks into SS, im moody, irratable, tired, no energy, snappy and i cant sleep lol, so your not alone!

ive just realsied that this is how i felt last year when i was severley anaemic!!! think id better go to the docs and get my blood tested and start taking iron tablets again! x

gone right of the choccy ones now, i ordered too many and i dont want them lol

i havnt got any!!!

hiya, how did the meeting go?! x

i know lol its great you have lost 13lb before you even started!! :8855:

i think you will be ok if you had it in replacement of one of your packs, onlt time and the scales will tell! :) x

yay lol thats a good start, however 15 stone 7lb is actually 217lb, and 14 stone 10 is actually 206lb! so you can knock another pound of your weight lol :)

my first week i lost 11lbs, i have lost 22lbs in 4 weeks, cant wait to see how much i have lost this week, i find out tomorrow! x

dont mean to put even more of a downer on it but ive been doing Cd SS for 5 weeks and im just sooo tired! i never have any energy and cant be bothered to do anything lol, i just hope it gets better! x

i ate some chips on the day of my night out, and some prawns and i had over 6 pints and was fine! i had read that its not actually been in ketosis that causes problems, its drinking on an empty stomach,( when i was on atkins we was allowed to drink in ketosis)

yay so glad you found some you like! i down all my shakes in one lol, like medicine thats making me thinner! i hate hate hate toffee and walnut, tried it once, then tried it again just to make sure, yuk yuk yuk lol

yes but it got me thinking as its from a leaf and were allowed leaf teas lol Hmmm

aww you are all soooooo lovely!! i love this site, it really helps me!! thanks everyone! :) xx

heya i just recomend one of these for mixing.. SPORTS PROTEIN GYM ATHLETES DRINK SHAKER MIXER BOTTLE on eBay, also, Nutrition Bars Shakes, Vitamins Supplements, Health Beauty (end time 10-Jan-09 09:05:53 GMT) this is the one i bought and for £1.45 what a bargain, it mixes your drinks really...

thanks again everyone! incognito, what style clothes do you wear lol im into rocky/gothy stuff ive calmed down a lot these last 2 years though, i use to wear my new rocks to go clubbing, i cant face wearing them at all now as i feel too old lol! ( still wearing my emily the strange hoodies though!)

buy a cheap tea strainer/mini sift from wilkingsons for 39p, when youve mixed your shake just pour it through there into a glass, takes out all the nasty lumps!

welcome! yes when you want to say pounds, then you put the letters lb after the number, quicker than spelling "pounds" every time X

i dont know how i lost so much lol, it just happened! i just stuck to it 3 shakes and water, i do have a vegatable bouillon every night though ( savory vegatable stock drink) i see it as my tea lol i know i have lost quite a bit this week, at least 4-5lb i hope but i havnt been drinking water i...

hi blush, welcome to the forum and to CD, im thinking like you, i wanted to do SS so i couldnt have food, i think that if i was allowed to eat a bit then i would eat a bit more and so on! so i dont want any food at all! i also have a baby girl, she is 4 months old, called Lexie Alyssa, whats...

hiya, i hated all the shakes at first, they tatsed artificial and im sure i could taste all the vits and minerals ect, but ive got use to them now, hate a few though, can i ask why have you chosen just chocolate milkshakes? i made that mistake in my first week and got more choc varietys than any...

ive had one forest shake, 2 coffees and 2 large glasses of water so far...im bored though and twitchy, dont know what to do with myself, nothing needs doing in the house, im just messing around on the internet! Bored bored bored!

aww thank you everyone! i thought i would sound crazy lol! i just cant wait to be thinner, its what i wanted all my life and i never thought it would happen to me but now i realise it can happen to me! xx

oh this sounds so daft, i couldnt go to sleep last night, i kept imagining myself getting to 13 stone which i have never been in my life i have lost about 2 stone in 5 weeks and im thinking to myself if i lose another 2 stone in 5-6 weeks i will be in the 13 stones, and i shocked myself how...

hiya! good luck!!! Go for it!!!! x

diddums, i hate the shakes hot, it brings out a discusting flavour in them, ( IMO) and when i tried the cappuchino one i gagged too, its awful, the only shakes i like are banana, strawberry, fruits of the forest and butterscotch, hate all the choc ones now but still have loads as i thought they...

hi, i doubt your allowed it, you are only allowed what ever is on the list, ive just tried looking to see if its got carbs in it ect but cant find any info, you will probably have to ask you CDC x

oops sorry about my spelling, habit of typing fast and not looking to see if its ok before i post!

My partners mum made me a black derjeeing tea on boxing day ( it was one of my days off from CD) it was reallt nice and refreshing so i bought some today, am i allowed to drink it?! it hasnt got any carbs in it, infact it has no nutricional value apart from less that 1kcal and 0.1g of protein, i...
