Hi ladies, the chocolate mint bar is a crunch bar, its really good :) dark chocolate with minty bits in it :) totally mega i think!! also the maple and pecan porridge is lush! had it for brekkie..... if your cdc went to the convention this weekend then they would of had the option to pre order...

This diet is probably too low in nutrients and vits, be careful, take a multivit too x maybe 2 snacks a day too x

oh make sure you stay mainly protein based :)

70g or under a day would do it x hth

great idea, stick with it :)

Cambridge whisks are great and really quite powerful, so get one of these for work, it will get rid of those clumps :) also the soups just use a fork and remember to let it stand for a minute or two to thicken up a bit..... At home the smoothie to go from argos is great, its about £20 i use...

Hope you stuck to your plan and had a good night, you can do this have some faith in yourself....you are in control of what you put in your mouth...nobody else is making you do anything! so stick to it x you have the power in your hands x

Yes but these are Cambridge guidelines and the ones the consultants have to follow :)

FAB! Stick with it Sam, you can do this ;) x

Hi ladies, here are the current CD guideline for gallstones: "if the client currently has gallstones no less than 1200 cals should be followed as surgery could be likely. If they have had them in the past but not now, a VLCD should not be followed as they can still be prone to them so 810...

Hi pink If you want support and from what i see your getting great support on here :) get in touch with me via pm and i will support you daily to get you through the month until your op :) you just need to take each day as it comes and realize you deserve to do this for yourself and the only...

Moley, although you did have an extra bar and egg with mushroom. You made the correct choice and chose your (extras) ;) wisely. Just move on tomorrow and stick to plan i am sure you will be fine and no damage will be done. Put it behind you now and don't feel guilty, it happens to us all ;)...

Hi ladies, i would say that to exceed 4 litres a day of water along with the fluids in your products would not be advisable, as a previous poster has said. Water intoxication is a real risk.....I would say for those who exceed the recommended amount try to reduce the amount you intake each day...

Hi ya, i just posted on your other thread :) look like i said just move on and forget that, but whatever you do.... do not have less than your 3 Cambridge Packs a day. You NEED the Vitamins and Nutrients to maintain your health needs. As for the Chocolate, ask your family if they would show...

Hi just put it all behind you, today is another day. I have disagree with a previous poster, just because of a blip don't question whether this diet is for you or not. Today is another day so just move on and get your focus back of where you want to be. This diet CAN and WILL work for you...

ur doing fab keep it up, enjoy your meal in the restaurant. a protein based meal is the right idea. :)

Hi ladies, treated myself to a birthday present and bought myself a treadmill! Coming tomorrow! Can't wait, been running since September but struggling to get out with dh working away and having a two yr old and a one year old! Had to share so excited!

Great news x well done ;)

Hi all x i just wanna add to this thread. If u hate wobbling like I do, just wear a sports bra. Big knickers with a sports bra top with your swimsuit overtop to hold u in! I find I wobble a lot less if I layer it with tight bits. :) easier to concentrate on running then x

Hi all i have been running on and off since september, went out today after a break of two weeks and it felt good but was totally exhausted after! One thing i can never decide on whether to eat or not before i run?? what does everyone else do?

I am having one of those weeks too :) even though i am not hungry my mouth just wants to eat!!! so i am doing green and filling up on syn free pasta dinner x tastes ok but it certainly isnt choccy what i really want!! had 9 syns too already!! what can i eat now?? LOL

I am sure that with the tiny amount that you have been doing your not gonna ruin your diet, but maybe nip the habit in the bud now before it gets more than the little bits you have had :) x you just need to get your focus back x

congrats Kel thats fab, wow wish i could get to target! Can i just ask you a couple of questions? Did you have 10 or 15 syns a day? Did you do any exercise? Thanks Good luck maintaining wow what a inspiration :)

Hi there welcome x

sorry been MIA the last few days, had problems with dh, been awful :( so i have definately been 100% not been able to eat much through being so upset.....but did lose 4lbs at WI

lost 4lbs :)

i never watch it as i wanna smash him in the face too!! he is so annoying and the people are just crazy too!!

ooh that was lucky!!

cara, stay away from the choccy! you know its no good for you!! hehe x bless ya hope you feel better soon x what day is everyone having? i am on a original day today after a few greens, going to have a lovely peppered steak tonight with au poivre sauce and stir fried veg :) yummy!

sw chips with cheese on!! :)

you need to get some inspiration, take a look at the recipes on here and get cooking, this is about a lifestyle change in your attitude to food so you need change what you eat to lots of healthy nutrious foods x x you never know you might like cooking once you start :)

i think if you are close to target these will push you over your syns but if u have alot to lose then you might be ok x x

sandy in bedfordshire group

congrats, great going :)

well done all the losers today!! no offence meant ;) great losses x x

you dont seem to be eating much! i would starve if i were u, and that is what i think is happening for u, your body is in starvation mode and just storing all u eat, you need to kick start your metabolism again, also try lemon juice with hot water first thing in the morning x x hth eat a bit more!

can u post your food on here so we can see what ur eating? maybe your not eating enough?

ooh nice, i might make these tomorrow!! i am sure these also fall in the not free/syn free debate like the cous cous cake.....because u could eat lots like this :)
