thanks people, will call cambridge tomorrow, although not wishing ill on anyone its good to know that other people experience different cycles if you see what I mean!

Hi all, any help I would be grateful if you wouldn't mind.. I have been on Cambridge since 4th Jan and have lost just over 30lbs. I have had two normal periods in about the right place, but this month I haven't had one, about 5 days late now. I am DEFINITELY not pregnant, my body doesn't...

really bugs me, scepticism and knee jerk reactions based on pre-conceptions..

I am constantly having to defend myself to people whose knee jerk reaction 'dangerous, crash diet, put it all back on, ketosis really dangerous, starving yourself' blah blah blah... what tactics do you employ against this sort of stuff? I try to explain till I'm blue in the face, but...

that sounds so familiar moving the scales around the room to find the best place to make yourself lighter. I weight at least 3 lbs more in the evening. I have not lost a thing since Saturday, how is that possible???

Hi all, I only have the peanut and cranberry bars, I don't like the rest, but on the advice of my counsellor, I am going to just have 1 porridge, and the rest tetras/shakes for the rest of the week, then I'll see what happens then. I didn't get measured this week, but overall I had lost 8...

thank you all so much for taking the time to reply, your kind words are most comforting. I will get some Fibre 89 stuff I think. I have tested this morning, and the stick is a faint pink, I won't be doing it again!! My counsellor did act surprised when I 'only' lost 2lbs this week(!) I...

thank you for taking the time to reply. I am going to re-test tomorrow morning first wee, and am going to take out my bar a day (sob..), and see what that does. I have done LL before and this never happened to me, I happily had 3 shakes and a bar a day, and lost much more weight. This time...

Hi all This is now my fifth week on Cambridge SS plus, I weighed in this morning and only lost 2lbs, which I am a bit down about. I have some Ketostix here and have just tested myself and I'm not in ketosis. (I last did this about a week ago and it showed a light pink). I have stuck to the...

hi all, I lost 2.5 lbs this week from Sat to Sat, on my scales, totalling 13 lbs in 20 days. I must confess to being a bit disappointed, but will soldier on (I am so impatient!). I have been flicking through past threads and found one about no of carbs you have a day. I am having a...

you speak the truth! I am doing the diet to the letter, so I WILL lose it. Just impatient (like everyone I suppose). thanks all, look forward to seeing you round the boards....

Bless you! Am just a bit scared. I am motivated, I really want this but am just a bit scared in case losing weight on a VLCD is a one time only thing, and it doesn't work the second time... I WILL NOT WEIGH IN UNTIL THIS SATURDAY, and I'll come back and tell you all how silly I've been...

Hi all, love the forum, find it really motivating. I am a CD returner and currently have around 3 stone to lose. I am 2 and a bit weeks in. I'm not able to get to my counsellor every week, but in the first 12 days I lost 10.5 lbs. Could someone give me a cyber slap please. I am a bit...

Hi all, I am finding it hard to find bacon/ham and mayonnaise that are nitrate/sugar free? do you use specific brands of stuff? I did this diet about 7 years ago with much success and have tried to get back on the wagon a few times with no success. I want to try again as it is amazing how...
