    Step 1 Sole Source Bars

    Hi Smudgers. Im afraid youre only allowed 1 bar per day. i think this has something to do with the fact that the bars are slightly higher in calories, contain a few more carbs and can cause slight feelings of hunger in some people. i hope that helps x

    that's good then! I don't think I have been in ketosis really since Sunday as I have been feeling a little hungry and today it has been really bad!

    soya milk quantity on 810??

    thanks KD. I prefer the 'light' version but am using the normal unsweetened one and the 'original' one whilst I'm doing cd. I will just continue to substitue the skimmed milk quantity with these. I've not had any problems so far. xxxxx
  70. Keeliewheeliebin

    soya milk quantity on 810??

    I've just moved onto the 810 plan today which says that you can have 12 fluid oz of skimmed milk. the thing is that I only drink unsweetened soya milk (usually Alpro soya). does anyone know the quantity I can have as a replacement for cows milk? many thanks!

    you'll be fine Hun. as others have said, the carbs would have been a massive shock to your system. last time round with cd I really struggled and would fall off thecwagon and eat all manner of crap (chip butties, pizza, chips and cheese etc) and boy did I suffer big time!

I'll measure again after WI tomorrow morning. I hope I have a slightly bigger loss soon but it...

    slow losses on ss. a bit fed up really.

    thanks guys. you're always so supportive. I'm just finding it a bit tough going at the moment. I know each small weight loss adds up in the end but not eating conventional food all week for a 2 lb weight loss just seems a bit lame sometimes! lol. I just gotta stick it out! xxx

    slow losses on ss. a bit fed up really.

    hi everyone. I know that i shouldn't moan as I've already lost 13.5 lbs in my first three weeks of ss but after the initial big loss I've only had small losses of 2 & 3 lbs. this week (week 4) I feel really heavy and 'fat'. I don't have the 'thin and empty tummy' feeling I had last time round...
  81. Keeliewheeliebin

    very strange goings on!

    hiya, it's all to do with glycogen. I'm not sure of the science behind it but basically when we start cd our bodies have to use up all stores of recently eaten food and glycogen before we start fat burning. in the first week of cd we usually have big losses, 3-4 lbs of this is usually glygogen...

I usually 'go' most days and i was fairly regular on week 1 of SS but have become less regular since week 2. i used to eat a lot of fruit, veg and wholemeal pasta which i think kept me regular but obviously my body has decided to dig its heels in and wont play ball and let me...

    hey Hun. I know just how you feel. I had my second weigh in today and only lost 2 lbs. but I measured myself and I have lost 3 inches from all over. I think it's just the way it works sometimes. chin up, maybe we will have big losses next week? xxx

    Choc mint

    yeah, just make them with hot water. we're not supposed to microwave the packs cos it can destroy some of the nutrients. try a hot choc tetra too. tip the contents into a big mug and top up with hot water. yum yum xxx

    I'm feeling good today, thanks magz. my CDC has suggested that we keep on going as we are because I am doing everything correctly but my body might just need a little more time to adjust. we are keeping an eye on it though x

    hiya. the 'walk' was actually a slow mooch around the shops! and I space the water out over the whole day (I sip it rather than glug a load in one go). after my last post I had a cup of tea and felt much brighter by half 4. in fact I'm full of energy again! I seem to have peaks an troughs of...

    day 6 of ss and still feeling rough.

    same here duncan. i tend to have a pint of water in the morning before my shake, then i tip a choc tetra into a big mug and top it up with hot water. yum. in fact most of my 'meals' are hot choc tetra, or hot choc pack. mmm. methinks i have a chocolate problem!! :D:D
  102. Keeliewheeliebin

    day 6 of ss and still feeling rough.

    just a quick update to let you all know that im feeling much better today. woke up with a spring in my step and didnt feel rough. think it must have just taken me a bit longer to get into a rythem this time around xxx
  103. Keeliewheeliebin

    day 6 of ss and still feeling rough.

    mmm, it might be an idea but im thinking of the extra cost too. i never had a problem before?? mmm. im seeing her on sat so ill see what she suggests. im feeling good at the moment though, a little tired but really good! how strange!
  104. Keeliewheeliebin

    day 6 of ss and still feeling rough.

    I'll give the split packs a go. I know I'm in ketosis tho, the sticks range in colour from the lightest pink through to the third pink ( if I test in the middle of the night!)
  105. Keeliewheeliebin

    day 6 of ss and still feeling rough.

    hiya, thanks hun. I've been in k since day 3 so I'm sure it's not that. i have my packs when I get up, one about 1pm and the last at about 6.30pm. I've never had a problem with the packs before and I feel good during the day (in fact I felt great yesterday) but it's just the ends of the day...
  106. Keeliewheeliebin

    day 6 of ss and still feeling rough.

    morning all. well I've done cd ss before (and lost 6 stone) but I've never felt this rough before! it's day 6, I'm drinking about 3 litres of water a day and I feel ok mid day, but first thing in the morning (for about an hour and a half) and in the evening (after about 8pm) I feel shakey...

  111. Keeliewheeliebin

    Everyone in my office is eating!

    thanks guys. i know you're right. I've done cd before and lost 6 stone so I know it works. i've just gotta rise above it all. speaking of which, I'm in a bit of a bad mood tonight... everyone at work seems to have an opinion on CD. apparently it's not healthy, I'll put all the weight on again...
  112. Keeliewheeliebin

    Everyone in my office is eating!

    im feeling very sorry for myself today. i have a headache and i feel weak again (i have drunk 2 litres today) :-(

  114. Keeliewheeliebin

    All Set Raring To Go!!

    go girl!! get through the first couple of days and you will find it much easier. especially after about 3 days when I found that I could get the top button on my work trousers done up again!! it's so worth it. and I feel great today (day 4) xx
  115. Keeliewheeliebin

    All Set Raring To Go!!

I've already lost 6 stone doing cd (since 2006) and I'm itching to get rid of the last 2 and a half stone! cd is great. just stick to it 100% and your first weeks loss will blow you...
  117. Keeliewheeliebin

    Any THIRD timers out there?

    oops! I'm on my fourth time! but in fairness I've done this diet in stints. I've lost 6 stones so far and never gained it all back. over the past 4 years I think the most I ever gained back was 2 stone but I never did get to my goal and didnt do maintenance. so it's my own fault really. I'm back...

    Is the CD porridge nice?

    I tried the porridge the other night (apple and cinnamon) and really had to force it down with a pint of water! I don't like the original either! saying that, I live on chocolate tetra and chocolate and strawb packs! lol. everyones taste is different xx

    morning everyone! today is my first full day on ss. I had my first pack yesterday evening and only had two very small meals and lots of water yesterday to ease myself in.

    I have done SS before (last year) and I'm finishing my journey starting this afternoon. I usually try to up my water intake and lower the carbs a bit in the couple of days before I start but the easiest way for me to start ss, and reduce side effects in the first few days is as follows: I am...

  154. Keeliewheeliebin

    Veggies? Any out there?

    Yeah I think the burgers and sausages are not really allowed but I have two quorn bangers with veg quite a lot and I've never had any problems. It works for me and keeps me on the straight and narrow but it is worth pointing out that it might throw some people out of ketosis. X x
  155. Keeliewheeliebin

    Veggies? Any out there?

    Hey.Im a veggie too and I stick to either cottage cheese, quorn sausages or peices or a quorn burger. There are only certain protein options allowed on ss+ so it's probably best to talk to your CDC or get them to give you the Cambridge booklets so that you have the official information for...

    Dilemma!

    yeah, i would just tell your current (and very far away) CDC that you are sorry but she/he lives just too far away and that there is another, much closer cdc. im sure they will understand and besides, you dont have any obligation to stay with the same cdc all the way through if you dont want to...

    it really is just easiest to stick to the plan. Ive lost 6 stone in total and despite that i still occasionally have a planned meal...but when i do eat..BOY its so so hard to get back on track. each day off the diet is a day that you are further away from goal. Believe me, if you are really...

    i think he probably means that the day is split into 4 segments (and also the 4 litres of water) and 1 segment = 1 litre. at least thats what i think he means! Or, 4 bottles of water and so.... 1 bottle = 1/4. ooh, now im confused! lol

    Quorn - advice/comments

    im a big fan of cottage cheese but am in danger of going off it big style if i continue eating it everyday! I find the fillets and pieces also go really dry so my CDC says that i will be ok with 2 quorn sausages (bangers, not any other variety i think) and also a burger every now and then. i...

    Not quite sure whats the matter. i just have this 'woe is me' feeling that i cant shake. some of you may know that i have a lot going on at home with my dad being ill (for anyone who wants to read the thread its in the family and relationship section i think.) anyway i just dont have much 'get...

    Day Off!

    believe me you need to stick to the plan! i i hadnt have stopped CD about a year ago i would have been at goal and looking fab. Instead i put back on 4 stone of the 6 i had lost and im having to do it all over again. im kicking myself at my moment(s) of weakness. if i had just kept my head down...

    first weigh in results!

    i lost 9 lbs WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO:D but my god, its so much harder this time round. im just not finding it as easy as i have done before! i no longer like any of the pack flavours, i feel hungry (even though i drink 3-4 litres of water) and generally lack energy. oh well, still a good loss.

    CD porridge. Hated it :-(

    i met my new cdc yesterday. she was ok but didnt really seem to know her stuff. i asked about porridge and she said she disnt know when she could order it but it 'might be in the next few weeks'. well, i knew it was already available but i didnt want to upset the apple cart first time i met her...

  208. Keeliewheeliebin

    Anyone else hooked on watching cooking programmes?!

    dear god yes! last time i did CD i couldnt get enough of cookery programmes or recipe books! Usually i dont really bother with them but CD just made me obsessed! It didn't make me hungry either, but it was strangly satisfying! I also used to go around sniffing other peoples food! lol....mainly...

    hi

    Hi Phil! glad to see you've joined us. Its great here, there is always someone around to give you advice, support, pick you up when you are down, have a laugh (or a cry) with or just have a good old natter with. which diet are you doing??? stone age??? thats a new one on me! Good luck!
  213. Keeliewheeliebin

    i cant wait to get started!

    ooh, you dont know what you're missing out on! Just make sure that you have a HUGE mug, or split your tetra into 2 and have two smaller mugs worth (otherwise there is not enough room for the hot water end you end up with luke warm chocolate!) add a sweetner too if you like. enjoy!
  214. Keeliewheeliebin

  217. Keeliewheeliebin

    keep at it amylou! i regret the day when i said 'enough!' and stopped CD. gradually since May 2007 (when i stopped to go on hols and never started again) i have put on weight, not noticeable at first then 'wham!' i cant fit into anything! keep at it girl. its so worth it. if you dont do it now...

    just a little tip.....! my favourite is hot choc tetra....get a BIG mug, empy contents of choc tetra, top up with boiling water (from kettle) add sweetener if you like. mmm yummy......my mouth is salivating now! ...and im not re-starting until the 13th sept!
  221. Keeliewheeliebin

    its all changed since last time! SS & SS+....

    wow mini! youre doing fantastic! thanks for the link to the guide. x
  222. Keeliewheeliebin

    its all changed since last time! SS & SS+....

    yeah, think i will. i know how the diet works for me from my experience last time so ill just do SS and no messing!! Bit of a shame tho as she is a new-ish cdc round my way. thought she would have wanted to do things to the letter. never mind
  223. Keeliewheeliebin

    its all changed since last time! SS & SS+....

    I completly understand that, sorry if i didnt put it in my original post! oops! The way my new CDC told it to me though was different. She insisted i had to see the doc and get a signature. I havent met her yet and i didnt want to get into an argument so i just let it lie. I felt like if i said...
  224. Keeliewheeliebin

    its all changed since last time! SS & SS+....

    Hi! i am due to re-start Cd after stopping it well over a year ago. since Feb i think the guidelines changed and now there is SS and SS+!!! how confusing. My new CDC says that if i want to do SS (three packs only) i have to visit my doctor and get a signature. otherwise i have to do SS+ and...

  227. Keeliewheeliebin

    Have you missed me?

    Crikey, the plan has changed so much! My CDC said that i couldn't do Sole source (3 packs) without getting permission, and a signature from my doctor. i know this isnt right because i called Cambridge and asked them. i think cdc should just inform doctor in writing so that he just has a record...
