Well my first week I didn't do too good with sticking to plan.. but going to try harder this coming week. I only lost 7 pounds, which is good.. but I know if I was more strict, it would have been more. Does it get easier? I am trying to convince myself that I can make it 3 months on just SS but...

Hi! My first weigh in is tomorrow. I'm excited.. But think next week will be better.. this one was kinda rough getting used to it. Either way, I think I'll be ok once I get the ball rolling. You're doing awesome by the way.. way to go!:D

Hi.. I'm trying to set a goal for myself to do SS for 3 full months .. mainly due to wanting to lose weight for health reasons. I am just wondering if anyone could tell me what I could expect to lose in 90 days time.. starting from 280pounds.. if doing SS for the entire time? Also, any other...

Things going well.. hanging in there. The hardest part is remembering that I'm not going to be eating when the time comes and others are talking about it. It's like I have to force myself to remember that I'm doing this.. and not give in to eating food out of habit. Weird. Anyhow.. things are...

Gettin my mind right!... I'm totally ready to do this! Looking forward to "crossing over" to ONEDERWORLD! ... Just going to take things 1 day at a time! Tomorrow will be my official day 1.. today I did ok, but only started mid-day.. so, just going to count tomorrow as my official day 1...

Well here I am yet again with a restart. Just not going to allow myself to give up that easily.. I can't. The weight keeps jumping back on me and I'm getting more miserable by the minute. Sad, esp when there is something I can do about it and for some reason just don't. But no more. I'm going to...

Just checking in.. this is day 4 & all is well. Weight is still about the same.. but it's not weight in day yet, so we'll see what happens. (Friday) Today I'm adding an all veggie salad to my menu, but only for today.. Might do this every once every 4-5 days if I'm craving something...

Well, I'm pretty happy because it's only going on day 3 and I'm already down 6 pounds. Whoohoo. So glad for that.. it will help me to stay inspired to keep going.

Well, I totally fell off the wagon for quite some time & gained quite a bit (again).. but back on track once again. Today is day 2.. doing Cambridge SS. Will check in after 1st weigh in. Current weight is 280.

1st weigh in today.. down 8. (whoohoo) Congrats everyone on how well you're all doing!!! Let's keep at it!!

Today is weigh in day.. and I'm down 8 pounds. I think it would have been more if I would have drank more water.. I really am having trouble with that!! Weight today is 244. *up 1.5 from when I checked 2 days ago, but that's ok.. still happy with my progress. Heading to town now to buy some big...

Thanks so much everyone for posting! So good to hear from you all!! Thanks for your support and encouragment. I'm really really thrilled to have my 4th day on plan just about behind me. These first few are the ones I dread the most (on any diet).. and know it will get easier (if you can call it...

This will be the last time I ever "diet" in my life.. I'm so sick and tired. I have spent the past 30 some years "ON A DIET" and have gotten nowhere! It has been nothing but UP down UP down UP down on that scale and I'm through! :mad: I decided that enough was enough.. I got ahold of the...

Hey there! I'm really sorry to hear about your news.. but a lot of people are right on here. It's not the end of the world and though it seems like it is, things WILL get better from here.. I can relate to your sad feelings your going through right now as we got the news some several years ago...

Hi.. Posted before but finally figured out how to add the pics to the post. :doh: I've been kinda slackin lately as far as my eating plan is going.. but trying to get refocused and motivated. Sorta depressed I wasted the last 2 months, but trying to put that behind me and just pick up where I...

Oh I'm sorry I didn't know that.. maybe it's because I'm doing the USA Cambridge... I know it's different than UK but didn't realize you aren't able to use the flavorings and stuff. My bad. Here they allow us to use extracts and flavorings (they are even in the recipes that came with the...

I saw a lot of desired flavors on here (like grape and watermellon) that you can buy extracts for. I make lots of different flavor shakes using LorAnn Gourmet Flavor extract oils. They have over 70 some different types of flavoring, including CHEESECAKE! .. They are super cheap and the flavor...

I'm just so blown away by everyone's progress.. WOW!! What you have all done is SOOOOO INCREDIBLE! GREAT JOB!! I'm sooooooooooooooo happy for you!!!

I don't find enjoyment in "watching" them eat, but I enjoy cooking their dinners and have no problem not eating it.. just happy to still be able to join in on the "cooking" fun..

Hi.. Sorry this happened to you.. but reading between the lines.. it sounds like he's just trying to make you jealous.. because he wants you to be .. he enjoys it. He wouldn't call and rub it in your face if he didn't still have a "thing" for you. He just wanted to see how you would respond to...

You do! You look great Sparkle!! WHOOHOOOOO.. what a difference =0)

Thanks Mini.. that's about what I'm doing now already.. The diet plan I've been doing (which I do like) is super low carb, lean meats and very little veggies so I'm already in Ketosis (which helps really well with cravings).. but would love to just "get this thing done!" like all you ladies on...

Hi Mini.. I'd like to get down to about 150 pounds or so. .. so about another 60 pounds. Right now I'd even be happy with another 30. Thanks Nat.. Your doing so awesome on this program, I can't help but be inspired! I haven't heard anything back from the counsellor yet, but hope she'll email...

Thanks everyone for your help.. That did help to clear a lot of things up I had questions about. I appreciate your time and care! I emailed a local counsellor but haven't heard anything back yet. Maybe over the next day or so. Looking forward to giving this a try. Thanks again

Hi.. I'm so inspired by everyone's progress here I really would love to learn more about this whole diet plan. I have a lady friend who is looking for a good diet plan and am trying to help her with find something she can stick to that brings fast results. I may also like to give this a try too...

Thanks for all the help ladies.. I read through a few sites and even emailed a lady here in the USA that sells the products .. and lives quite near to me. One more question.. is this a hard plan to stick to? I mean, have any of you struggled with wanting to eat? I'm fairly good with "will power"...

WOW.. I'm still amazed.. that is ALOT of weight lost in just 11 weeks.. CONGRATS GIRL.. Sending hugs your way, Im so happy for you!! Thank you also for all your help and information.. I'm going to check into this more .. that's for sure. Thanks again!! Keep us posted on your progress, now you...

Thank you everyone! That's so nice to hear.. even though I have such a long way to go yet.. (shootin for another 60 pounds). Yes, I'm doing a lean meat type Atkins program.. where I do mostly turkey, chicken, fish, that sorta thing.. Oh, and I eat a LOT of egg whites along with a few yolks from...

Thank you so much ladies for all your help and information.. I'm so curious to see what this is all about. I'm amazed at the quick weight loss and simplicity of it all. (Not to much thinking about food and "what's for dinner tonight"..) I'm doing well on my current plan, but would love to speed...

I'm interested to know how this diet is different from the slim fast diet.. Also, where in the USA can Cambridge products be purchased.. Any input on what this "diet" is all about would be appreciated! I'm super curious.

Ya know, I was so excited about the pics I saw that I forgot to say I'm totally AMAZED at your progress so far on your weight loss.. 60 pounds in 11 weeks!! That's simply amazing!!! WOW!!! I'm really curious now about this diet plan and would love to learn more. Up until I came to this forum...

WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW that's all I can say.. those pics are AMAZING!! GULP!! I read a little about the cambridge diet, but how much does it cost? Does anyone know? Sorry so many questions.

Wow I was just checking your tickers.. You ladies are doing great.. do you mind me asking how you've been able to lose your weight.. WestHill.. is that 141 pounds lost?? How long did that take you and did you stick to 1 eating plan the whole time? I'd love to hear your story.

Thanks ladies for your help, it really helped a lot. I found some more information last night on the computer about it too.. now I feel better prepared to help out. I just couldn't figure out if fat was supposed to be counted along with the carbs.. Thanks again!! Anyone else lose weigh on...

Hi.. I just have a quick question and can't find the answer anywhere. Hope someone here may be able to shed some light on a few questions I have. On Atkins, is there a limit on the "fats" you eat. I know there is a limit on the carbs but never read anything about how we are to limit the fats...

Hi! I made these tonight and it really hit the spot! I used the egg bread someone has posted in the "egg recipe thread".. if you haven't tried this, it's totally worth it. It's not ULTRA DELICIOUS, but hey.. anything that resembles bread is GOLD to me right about now! I've been eating it like...

I spent the last 9 months or more CRAVING FRENCH TOAST and going out of my mind! When I found this secret out, I celebrated like you wouldn't believe! Low Carb Friendly French Toast: 2 slices (or more.. depending how how hungry you are) of the "egg bread" .. (you can find it in the recipe...

I am a low carb dieter and found this recipe.. it's a life-saver for me.. I use it for everything.. like making FRENCH TOAST or REUBEN SANDWICHES or any type of sandwich for that matter.. I also make these into pizza's! Just about anything you would normally use "bread" for. 4 egg yolks 4T...

Thanks so much everyone.. those things are so nice to hear! You totally made my day hehe. :D

100 Pounds Down! Hi.. I'm 100 pounds down but don't know how to post my progress pics here. I have them all in my weight loss journal if anyone would like to see them. I try and update it as often as I can with new pics and notes on how I'm doing. Anyhow, just wanted to say that this is such a...
