    please help me help my DH

    I did expect alot of critisim for the way I feel, but CD was DH choice, not mine. I had never heard of it before he found it in march and wanted to try it. I lost weight through reducing calories myself. We have had countless heart to hearts, its got worse over the years, at first I was ok. He...

    Stressing about this evening!

    Might sound silly, but can you take a bottle of washing up liquid in when you are clearing up? Squirt it all over them, at least then you cant pick even if tempted! My friend did that after her DDs party last weekend!

    please help me help my DH

    Hes away in hotels all over the world during the weeks and doing all sorts of funny hours, so it would be quite hard to do this. I know he wouldnt be able to do it, he couldnt ever just order a small chicken salad, hes even said that. I'd give up and let him do what he wants, BUT hes 34 this...

    please help me help my DH

    Hes not secretly eating in the eating disorder sense (just keeping it from me, when I think hes dieting lol), he works away in the weeks and eats out with collegues. He doesnt have food issues as such, he just eats too much, likes going for huge meals out etc. He actually eats healthily, just...

    please help me help my DH

    My husband is on CD, curretly weighs 17 and a half stone, but at the start weighed 21. He started in march, and I know it sounds like hes done ok, but he has yo-yo'd up and down in that time, his lowest was 16.4 a few weeks ago. As of 14th sept he promised me that this would be the last time and...

    What is the most you have weighed, what do you weigh now & what do you want to weigh

    No, I have only turned to CD in the past couple of weeks to shift a stone i gained last month, as my husband is on CD. I lost the weight over 15 months 4 years ago by an combination of slimfast/healthy eating, but basically sicking to 800 - 1000 cals a day.

    choc orange jaffa cakes....

    the aftertaste is a bit strange as a shake, tastes great drinking it, but kind of gets the back of your throat afterwards I find. I love it as a mouse though.

    choc orange jaffa cakes....

    So, seeing as we couldnt cook a roast today (not for ourselves anyhow , but did a mini one for DS!) my DH and I experimented with the choc oranage pack and made jaffa cakes! Mix up the pack into a paste, put onto baking parchment as you would to make crisps, but add a little more, so its a...

    First weigh in

    Thankyou. I am a little nervous about reintroducing food, I expected to be SSing for two weeks......Still, we dont have much food in the house, and no rubbish at all, and to be honest a meal of a little bit of quorn and green veg is what my DS usually has for his dinner, so it shouldnt be too...

    First weigh in

    Lost 15 pounds!! And 6 inches overall. CDC could not believe it as I wasnt really that overweight to begin with, weighed me 3 times, lol! So, now I am back to the weight I had maintained for 2 years prior to my little slip up, 9 stone 7 (goal is 9 stone). From today I am on 790 for a week, and...

    I am obsessed with food !! and OH eaten my bars !

    It actually helped that I dreamt I'd overeaten last night - the feeling of dissapiontment in myself was over whealming, I was so happy when I realised it wasnt real! I do not want to feel that way for real!

    completely off topic - house buying?

    People have been predicting the house market will crash for years. My sister was in the same situation as you four years ago, they moved to rented accomodation after they sold their house as everyone said that house prices whould crash at that time - four years later still in rented as house...

    When do you eat yours???

    I have to have them brekkie, lunch and dinner, 7.30, 12 and 5. My husband finds he has to do the same, and has two tetras in one glass or his dinner. they are the times when DS eats, so I find it easier to be having something myslef, otherwise I sit there drooling over his food!

    Spots!!

    No, i'm not on the pill. Its not to do with PCOS, I maintained easily 9.7 for 2 years, and only got to 17 stone in the first place as I ate non stop for a year after my DS was born, I was on a drip while pregnant as I was so sick I couldnt even keep water down for the whole 9 mnths, so I went...

    Near Goal and "binge thoughts" - oh dear

    Yup me too! I maintained 9.7 for two years after loosing 7 and a half stone, but a month ago I binged for 2 weeks non stop due to a horrid time in my personal life (before I was limiting myself to every other friday) and gained two stone in that time, hence being on CD now!

    Near Goal and "binge thoughts" - oh dear

    I know this may not be a popular comment, but I have lost count of friends I know of who have a 'naughty' day once a week, or every other week. I think lots of people do it. The key is keeping it to just one day.

    Hello Tara. Today is my fourth day of SS. I am taking it one day at a time. I keep wanting to eat, so I say to myself that I wont eat today, but maybe I will eat tommorow. I let myself think of all the things I will eat the next day. But, when I wake up in the morning, I just think of how...

    Irrational thoughts...only on day 2!!

    Thankyou. I am trying my best to take a step back when these thoughts come to me, trying not to act in such a compulsive way. Its hard though. i have been locked in a binge/starve cycle for so long now. Do you know what the most silly thing of all is? If I stick to this (and I will if it kills...

    Irrational thoughts...only on day 2!!

    I keep thinking to myself, 'ok, I've done a day and a half of SS, it was easy! So, if I eat today, I can start again tommorow, now that I know I can do it'. I know its a completly stupid thing to think, I am a binge eater, what I am really wanting to do is stuff myself with food, I am just...

    Hello, I am new!

    Thankyou! I do like some of the other flavours - choc mint, choc and vanilla (I dont think I could have the soups, i would just want bread with it!) but I love the choc tetras! I used to nick a couple of my husbands every now and then!

    Hello, I am new!

    Hello, I just thought I would introduce myself. I went to see my CDC today and have got all my packs and am ready to go! My husband has been doing this diet, and has lost 3 stone, albeit over 6 months as he, like a lot of people, has had a few false starts along the way! But, from today...
