Yipeee! Well done you. Let me know how you get on. How were your last two weeks on CD? The rate of loss is much slower on SW which I struggled with last week but it's a much healthier way to do it so I kicked myself up the butt and will carry on. Look forward to hearing how you get on. Tracy x

Hi everyone, I'm not really a newbie as had been on Cambridge for quite a while but have swapped to SW after the huge gains you can get coming off of Cambridge. I have around 4 stone to lose so will be going for quite a while. Fabulous support on this site will make it easier though. Tracy x

OMG .... just made one of these for my lunch - it was delicious!! 3 eggs, 230g cottage cheese, mushrooms, onion, courgette, mixed herbs with tomato slices on top. 30 mins in oven and oooohhh yum! Will put hex a grated cheese on next time. Trying the New Yorker chicken tomorrow. Tracy x

Thank you hun, you too for your next two steps! SW is scary after CD because you HAVE to eat to lose weight - you can eat so much that the first week you think you must be doing it wrong. In fact in class this week - one of the ladies that stared last week had to phone our consultant because she...

Yipee ... keep in touch and let me know when you start :0) xx

Sorry, forgot to answer your question! Putting weight on when you come off Cambridge is inevitable .... But - you have to remember it is only food weight and will be your actual weight as your muscles store up the carbs and additional water they absorb. It will not be fat though please remember...

Hi, firstly well done on sticking to it to lose the three stone and no cheating. If you decide you want to change plans then ur CDC will (as long as they are well within date) buy your packs back off you ... or like you said you could finish the last few. As littlemissslim said above you could...

Hi Chloe, I have (had) been on and off Cambridge for the last 6 years. I stupidly started it when I weighed 13st 5, lost a couple of stone then gradually went back up to 17st 10!!!! When I came off Cambridge my body clung to every calorie I ever consumed, two consultants I know have both gained...

Hi, we had a fab holiday thanks, went to Italy. We drive coz it's cheaper but service station food is not good! Yes got a nice tan though the crap weather here is fading it quickly haha! I went to weigh in last night (got back sunday night) and managed to lose 2 lbs ... somehow, 8.5 lbs gone now...

Hi Siggy, How are you? Sorry I haven't been around much - just got back from hols .... weigh in tonight!! How are you getting on? Trace

Hi Siggy, I lost 3.5 and slimmer of the week. :D Much better week, how's yours going?

Hey, yep - boy was it hot over the weekend!! Have got 8 deck boards left to paint so nearly there at last. How's your son has he recovered from his trip? Did you enjoy the carnival? I did nothing major yesterday either - way too hot, I have cleared out the shed and done a tip run today, that...

Yeah, gloss is a bit stinky. Usually gives me a really bad headache so like you have to have all the doors and windows open. The decking is looking much better - I let it get far to faded and tatty so it's my own fault it's taking so long to look better. It is a pain waiting till the end of the...

Yey, well done :clap: fab news. I have to wait all day for my weigh in on Mondays - it's not until 5.30! Have a brill weekend with your son, I hope he had a great time. How's the painting going by the way? I'm painting to .... my decking, though it's too hot now so came in for lunch :D

Good luck with weigh in later :cross: Tracy x

Hey Siggy, how are you today? My weigh day is on a Monday and yes I do go to class, doubt I be strict enough with myself to go it alone hehe! Oh poor you - glossing the skirting boards! I hate the smell of gloss, still it will keep you occupied :) you coping ok with your son being away? I have...

Hi Siggy74, I hope you don't mind me tagging onto your diary? I started SW 2 weeks ago after spending the last 5 years on and off Cambridge Diet. So much so that I now weigh 3 stone more than I did when I originally started Cambridge! Hence I feel totally miserable about myself but ... hey ho...

Thats great, thanks for all your help. Weigh in is not until monday and yes I do scale hop every morning! I habit I need to give up!!

Goodbye and good luck with what ever you do :)

Thats a fab loss - well done! I lost 9 in my first week also. It was a suprise as I didn't have any expectaions. Keep up the good work, you'll be at a stone in no time.

Hi all, for those that have been on the diet for a while - do you still gain weight at TOTM? I have been on SS 100% this week and have gained 2 lbs :eek: I thought that due to the amount of calories we have each day it wouldnt add up to a gain, I'm also really hungry!! Anyone have any advice...

I have just watched it on you tube. What a lovely bloke he is. Very emotional for him though, hope life gets better soon.

Sorry, defo not allowed on SS!!

Hi, as far as I am aware it is approx a stone between sizes. Although it can be a few pounds either way for different people. What it is in inches I have no idea, maybe someone that has measured all the way though the diet can tell you. Hope this helps :D

Thanks for your help and and good luck at the gym :D

Thanks Greeneyes, that sounds like a fair explanation! I dont think I will measure it for at least another 6 months. Does your instructor know you are on CD? most of the ones I know frown on the diet.

Hi all, I have been on cambridge for ten days now. I have professional body fat scales and I measured before I started. I am 9 lbs down today but my body fat is still the same. How can this be? surely a small decrease should show by now. Could a CDC please help with a possible explanation...

You can pile the weight back on with any diet if you go back to old habbits. My auntie lost nearly 6 stone by following the heart foundation eating plan and seeing a personal trainer twice a week. Two years down the line she has put all of it back on and more. most diets work if you stick to it...

Thanks guys. I'm starting tomorrow. Will let you know how I go :0) TraceM

Hi guys, I'm a serial CDer and for medication reasons my doc won't let me do SS but is ok with 810 but pref 1000. If there are people out there on this could you all give me an idea of your loses please? I realise it will not be as quick as SS but I don't want it to take to long as have 5 stone...
