    How many times is too many??

    Good luck Diet4-40, I'm restarting also today after a break, I had problems with the CDC I had chosen, so gone back to the CDC I had last year. I've told myself this is the last chance restart, I've 2 1/2 stone to loose so hopefully that's not to daunting a task to do.

    Other benefits of CD apart from weight-loss

    The first time I did CD (last year) I didn't get a cold, felt much better in myself. I also cut down on medication for acid reflux, the down side though was my sleep, I kept waking up at least 3 times a night and not always coz I needed the loo. Also I lost an awful amount of hair, just glad I...

    Not done much this afternoon, think I used my energy this morning. I don't know if it's a craving or I'm hungry, not due for my last shake till about 8pm, had 3 litres of water, 4 cups of tea and a bouillon. Got to freeze the brownies I made earlier so they can warm them as and when they need...

    Hopping on and off the scales!!!

    Only once aday for me after the first loo visit, I know my weight can go up by at least 6lb between morning and evening. I used to get weighed at about 8.30 in the evening the first time I did CD and it would always be a lot heavier than when I weighed in the morning. This time round I get...

    Confused

    I was the same the first time I did CD, no-one noticed at first, I kept wearing my old clothes as I didn't want to buy new things each time I dropped a size, not really worth wasting money :o Once I had finally lost 3.5 stone and come off the plan people noticed, my neighbours mum couldn't get...

    Sausages - advice please

    Sorry if this is in the wrong place. I bought some sausages for the lads yesterday just coz it said low carb on the packet. I've started looking at ingredients and carb content since doing CD.

    KD - you are fab!!!

    I have to agree with everyone else, I've not been a member for long, but lurked and read KD's helpful posts, all really encouraging. There seems to be some CDC's out there that could learn a thing or two from you. (I should add not the CDC's on mini's) Keep up the good work. :)

    Hi i'm new

    Hello rdonn, I'm on day 2 of restart, all I can say is drink plenty of water and keep yourself occupied that way you won't have time to think of food. :) I've don't use the Wii but I use an Air Walker and resistant training band and feel a lot better for doing so. :)

    Day 4 and very very ill. Advice please?

    I'm not a CDC, but maybe the packs are too rich for you, have you tried spliting them into 6 smaller meals and using a little more water to thin them down. Probably not much help. Hope you feel better soon

    Thanks Tillyfloss, yes they are very sweet, but thought they would be better than eating ''normal food''. I've tried to stick to protein and green & white veg which i've found ok. Just can't wait till Thursday now. :)

    Cadbury World

    I've booked a day trip for my little boy and myself, some might say i'm bonkers when on CD, but chocolate doesn't bother me. He's said he'll have the free chocolate they give out. We went about 3 years ago and had a really good time, not quite what I was expecting but good all the same. :)
