That's what i've done. Actually did 100 days ss and i made a tick chart, or at least my OH did and i ticked off each day. i'm now reaping the rewards in my size 12's!! from a size 22. It's well worth it!

Istarted the cd on the first of jan and have currently lost 5 stone three pounds and 35 inches and so yes it is achievable. I have been totally 100% and haven't wavered once, i have been going to the gym at least three times a week and just using the treadmill to wlk and the bike for twenty...

Was sure the dry skin on my hands was from constantly washing them,but i'm forever moisturising. Feel relieved to know there are others out there with the same condition!

Angela83, the oriental one was the very first one i've tried and i've never gone back to it! The others i love other than the tomatoe. The soups work for me, was weighed today and have lost five stone since the first of jan, so am very proud of myself!!:)

Am now very concerned about what is wrong with my taste buds, as my favourites are leek and potatoe and cheese and broccoli. It reminds me of broccoli and stilton rather than just an ordinary cheese!! The one i absolutely hate is the tomato it makes me gag. Makes me wonder what i could've done...

Well done you, it's a good feeling isn't it. Had a christening a few weeks ago and was in the same size as you. Had a party last night and wore the same thing and wish i'd got it in a different size as it was baggy!! So keep the tags on your outfit and make sure that you can take it back if you...

I tried a soup on the first of jan as my first shake and i felt the same way but managed to hold it down. The leek and the potatoe is my favourite , to the point where i think i'm addicted to it!! Try it with black pepper in a few weeks , don't write it off!!

I am really concerned i have been 100% sole sourcing since january and i have been bleeding on cerazette oral contraceptive which i never used to do. my latest bleed has been going on for five weeks. Has anybody else bled for this length of time on the same contraceptive or do i need to see my gp?

I am on cerazette and never really had a period for the two years i was on it prior to CD, but since i started this plan i've had three really heavy periods where i bleed for two weeks or more. Very frustrating and also worrying as it seems to happen after intercourse. Have had a smear test...

It's hard but do you know, when i started this my OH decided to take up baking and has made fudge, melt in the middle chocolate puddings, cheesecakes and various other puddings and him and our son have eaten them in front of me, but i'm so determined and have now got to the point where i look...

It's important to get rid of the bigger stuff cos psychologically it get's bigger and you start to think you look okay. I've got myself some really decent jeans and tops and stuff from asda. Only a couple of pairs because i'm only in them for a few weeks at a time. Also my friend is on the plan...

It's not the easiest thing that i've done but i'm very determined and the results speak for themselves. Have been great for the last month and a half but i can be very temperamental and irrational around my totm and if i don't get my eight hours sleep a night but what's new there!!

I am absoulutely made up. I've had my weigh in today and have achieved 3 stone off since the first of january. Am so elated that i've given myself a major migraine, i think by smiling so much, am like the cheshire cat!! Haven't kept up to date with my tracker as i have no idea how to do it and i...

I have joined the gym and am finding that if i'm not too tired i'm exercising every day. Don't think i'm overdoing it. Am either swimming, going on the treadmill or going on the bike. They are aware that i'm on a vlcd and i have adjusted my water intake accordingly. I don't want to go and get...

Inspirational a fantastic achievement! I too can do this, am 100% ss already having lost 23lbs, since the 1st jan 2009, (can't remember my password to update my tracker) am well on my way and you have made me even more determined. WELL DONE.

I am also a nurse and i also work three days a week. You are entitled by law to have a break and under no circumstances should you not be, it's bad management. I am very lucky as my senior nurse and i run a tight ship and encourage our nurses to have their entitled, unpaid breaks, you need to...

Haven't been to the toilet to have my bowels open for around five days feel really uncomfortable. Have some movical but don't know if i can take it. any advice? need something now as am in bits, also have some senna and dulcolax.

I never get spots and i have dreadful skin at the moment!

Have just read your first weeks loss, well done that is amazing. Am so jealous!!

i've just got back from swimming and feel on top of the world! Was initially told by cdc not to exercise so i stopped but it's what i'm used to and i couldn't hold back and went and feel great.

That's really sad and also bad management when you consider that it's a business. Mine is okay, quite supportive i think but my best friend has been more of a help as she's lost five stone on this.

Stick with it! I'm on day 12 and i found the first week REALLY hard, but i know that i don't feel attractive the way that i look now and as a result do not go anywhere. I'm only thirty two, and i keep on thinking life is too short to eat myself into an early grave. I've lost twelve pounds in...

In my first week i went with what i thought i wouldn't like first, then that way it was over and done with. Am very glad i did it that way as i felt that some of the soups were horrid! Every shake i had i had it warm except the banana and strawberry ones which i guess you'd only ever have cold...

No don't damn insecurities you are pretty normal. Would he like it? i doubt it! so don't take any of the blame and feel bad.

lol

Sorry to ask this and i don't know if it's the right thing to do, but does anyone else have a problem with getting 'in the mood'. Since i've started the diet my other half i think feels a little bit neglected and it's not that i don't want to, i just don't get the urge.

It's my favourite and have had one for breakfast all of this week!

Reading this has just made me feel so much better!! I'm wondering whether Amilee and i are one and the same, am on day ten and i have been what i can only describe as vile, but then again my oh doesn't help himself. My daughter is having issues with her dinner which i've slaved over for hours...

It's not the fact that i've been up early, that's a regular thing as have young children. The statement about the hormones being all over the place makes a lot of sense because it really does feel hormonal. Thank you for your advice it's appreciated and it does help, was a bit reluctant to ask. x

This is my tenth day on cambridge and last night i didn't get a vast amount of sleep and i've woken up very early this am with my daughter and i now feel like i'm premenstrual and i'm not. Is this normal? Don't feel tired just moody and tearful.
