    Restarted AGAIN`

    Thanks again! I lost another three pounds this week, so thats a stone and a half gone already, which I'm SO pleased about! In five weeks too! I have a few events coming up, but I'm gonna do my best to be strong through those! My CDC is so lovely, I cant fault her.

    Restarted AGAIN`

    I stayed the same this week :-( I didnt eat, but I did up my exercise a bit so I'm putting it down to that, plus I have lost such a big amount, my body had to break even at some point, just to catch up. Thats what I'm telling myself anyway, to keep positive.

    i hate water, urgh its vile

    You can get water flavouring from your CDC for £8 or £9 - there is a fruits of the forrest flavour and an orange one too. I think there is also some kind of Cambridge bouillion too. I make ice lollies with my water flavourings, but its tooooo cold for that now.

    Cambridge for Men

    Hiya, I make all my shakes and soups with a blender, I just measure the amount of water, chuck the powder on blend it well and there are no lumps. I would do a couple of weeks on ss to get into ketosis and get the gist of the diet and see how you feel then. Good luck!

    Have you told people you are doing this?

    I told everyone, as it was something I wanted support for and also so that I had the added incentive of never being able to cheat as someone would say "should you be having that?" Etc - it just spurs me on! Each to their own though!

    Please Claire, dont do it! It is SO much harder restarting and I am not joking. The same happened to me first time round, I got to the point where I thought I was invincible, I had solved all my diet problems and I had LL to fall back on, Right? WRONG - I purged, put on weight, felt guilty...

    Its not necessarily slower, it is a little more difficult though, for reasons noone can explain, but I have now lost three stone in the same amount of time it took first time around so it shouldnt take longer!
