Okay. Now I am suspicious. but thanks anyway.

Erm - not sure why the diet has come up as stars? *snip* anyone heard of it?

Does anyone know anything about the '********' diet? Isit any good - does it work the same as other VLCD?

Starting again in the morning Had a very odd couple of months or so - diet went to pot. First my FIL died, then we spent a lot of time runing up and down the country. Then more recently, I was ill for weeks with some sort of stomach bug. No matter how many times I tried - I just couldn't get...

BUGGER!!!! For some reason the weight just not shifting. Lost a grand total of 0.8lb this week yet have stuck to SS religiously. Anyway - just measured and I have lost 5 inches ffrom my boobs, 5 3/4 inches from my waist (didn't actually have a waist before:bliss: ) and 6 inches from my backside...

Can anyone also tell me is it okay to miss a couple of the shakes. Not feeling well today, I have been drinking lots of water but could only stomach one of the shakes and that was the choc one at lunchtime. Really can't face another one today.

Thanks Thanks for all your replies (& tip). I was surprised at how nice the choc tasted with a bit of coffee in it - trouble is, I'm not really a coffee fan. I will try the green tea as i think I actually have some of that in my cupboard.

Thanks nat - might consider that for the future. In the meantime, just made the choc one with a spoonful of coffee in it...quite nice.

Would it make a difference to my SS if I drank tea with a bit of milk in it? I only ever have skimmed milk. Hate black tea, but am literally gaging fo a cuppa!!

RIGHT - trying again I have really struggled to get started again on SS since the funeral, etc. ANyway - today is going well, if I can get through today - I think I will definately be on my way again. Hopefully this time until I reach my goal. Keep yer fingers crossed for me. & forgot to add -...

CHERYL - done the click on name thing and nothing comes up to send a personal message. Can you try mine and see if it works the other way XX

Hi Cheryl - this may sound dim, and with good reason :D but what's PM? or how do I PM you?:D Probably somehting realy obvious - but my brain is not functioning at the moment ... need sleep;)

I am having real trouble getting back on SS. I really want to do it and then blow it even though I know what I'm doing at the time. I am definately starting again first thing in the morning - I need someone to NAG me!!!!

I'm back Back on CD & sole source from yesterday. Must've put something on over the past couple of weeks - but refused to get weighed. Anyway, started again yesterday, weighed this morning and I have lost another 1.2lb so I'm ok with that. By my reckoning, I probably put 2 or 3lbs on over the...

Ah - not all do to with CD though. Although CD does account for about half of it. Must've lost the extra over the months before starting the CD - but I was shocked.

OMIGOD!!! Just been for my Asthma check-up. I weigh 30lbs less than I did at the one this time last year!!!!!! 30lbs:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek...

Hi Cheryl. Thanks for the support and yes - I'd like to meet you too. Going back up to Yorkshire in a couple of days for the funeral, but after that, we'll have to get together. Jayne XX

I'm back. My FIL died at the weeked and sorry to say that the CD went to pot - put 3 lb back on in a week. Loved him to bits and he'd have thrown a fit if he knew I'd blown it on his behalf, so here I am. Starting again on sole source today.

Sorry - my name's Jayne BTW.

Yes - we intend to stay in Cornwall until we're carried out (or thrown out :rolleyes: ). We only moved here in August 2005, after almost 10 years of planning (long very boring story). I would love to meet up, but it may be a bit difficult for me as I don't drive yet (currently having lessons...

Hi Cheryl - We're currently renting in Camborne as our son is doing his A'levels at the local college. Hoping to move somewhere else once he's completed. By the way - I love Penzance. Just had a look at your profile - WOW 116lbs - thats brilliant WELL DONE YOU!!!

Day 10 today - not getting weighed until day 14. Not expecting a great loss because of a family thing that we have had oer the past couple of days. But at least I have worked hard to be 'good' and stuck to food from the lists in step three. Back to sole source from today. Has anybody else...

GOOD GRIEF!!!!! Just got weighed ... 15lb loss in 6 days :eek: . Day 7 today :)

Thanks I will look at the recipes.

CURVALICIOUS - how do I find about recipes, etc. My counsellor just brought the shakes, said she wouldn't recommend the soups (although I am going to try them). She also gave me books re all the ways to do CD, one of which contains meals for the add a meal week - but nothing about recipes.

Hi Sonkie - yes I did see the 'meet-up' thread - but unfortunately I can't make it. No childcare because DH works on a holiday park and literally works his butt off over easter as it's one of the busiest times. Also have my daughter as well as my neice, a friend and her son for the easter hols -...

Just altered my target on my 'ticker' thing. Thought I'd show it in smaller increments because otherwise it wouldn't be moving much so my first target is to lose 64lbs.

OMIGOD - weighed myself this morning. Gone from 364 to 355.2 in two days!!!!!! :eek: That means I could easily lose a stone in the first week. I know that the weight loss slows down, but I set myself a mini target of losing two stones by the end of May and I should easily be able to acheive it...

Thank for all your replies. I might try one or two of the soups. I can't have the bars becasue of a peanut allergy.

Can anyone tell me what the soups are like?

Forget that - I've managed to do it :D. Now what else can I play with??????

Playing with this thing to keep myself busy - How do you guys get the 'ticker' thing to appear on your posts?

Thanks buncey and good luck to you too. Hope you dont mind me asking, but how come you can only have the choc ones? Have just made up a strawberry one for lunch - they're not bad at all. I think it must be the sweeteners that give them the aftertaste.

Started the CD yesterday. I have to say that I do not feel hungry and have realised just how much eating was a 'habit'. Found myself opening the fridge to raid the fruit drawer and a number of occasions when I was bored - but didn't succumb. The choc chake is absolutely disgusting. Also not...

Ready to start. Finally done it - got my first months supply and I am starting on Monday. I have a long, long way to go but as said many times - I am going to give it a good go. Hope you lot don't mind whinging, becasue I may be back here very soon doing just that. ;) Going to do some...

Finally sorted. Its taken a while (and I suppose me trotting off to Scotland for a 'Girlie' week didn't help the delay). I now have my months supply and am starting first thing on Monday morning. I know this is going to be a killer, at least for the first week - but as I said before, I am...

HOW MUCH - ROUGHLY Got one - woohooo. Should be on the diet by middle of next week. Not sure if she accepts cash, cheques or what, so if someone could give me a rough idea of ho much weeks supply for sole source is - I can make sure I have enough money in the house to pay her cash to begin...

Hi everyone I've finally found a CDC who replied to my message after 2 1/2 months of no response from at least three others. She's coming to see me on Saturday and I should be up and runing by the middle of next week. I currently weigh somewhere between 25 and 26 stone (maybe even a little more...

Anyone on Cambridge Diet. I am currently struggling trying to maintain a calorie controled diet - but realy want to try the Cambridge Diet. I live in Camborne in Cornwall and have contacted a number of 'counsellors' that are supposed to cover my area. Not one of them has replied. Can anyone...
