I just reached the 'Overweight' category and I have to say I cried a little. My husband gave me a look of complete bewilderment when he asked what was wrong i said "I'm overweight and so happy" he shook his head and walked off muttering "i will never understand women"!!!!

Badger1980 - you have lost an amazing amount, it really is people like you on the boards that make all the difference because you see that others can and have done it. I do think that friends/family like to label you and when you do something to change that label it takes them a while to...

It's been interesting reading some of the replies on here that my experience is not alone. I have been thinking it is jealousy that provokes the reactions but I also think this diet has a lot of misconceptions about it - personally I love it, it free's you up from thinking about food and now...

Good idea KD - I had to laugh when they said that they were allowed bacon sarnies on their 'diet' and wondered why they only lose 1lb a week!

I thought it might be jealousy but wanted to think the best of them! Thanks for the support, whenever I am down or have a wobble coming on here and seeing the success stories and kind words always makes me feel better. I have to say I think Cambridge is the only diet where I haven't wanted to...

Why does CD provoke such negative reactions? We had my husbands family round for a BBQ yesterday, as I am on the 810 plan i made sure I had my shakes before they came and then ate a healthy meal with them, they noticed I had lost weight and asked what diet I was doing. Telling them about...

Thanks, the hob nob craving has passed thankfully although the cold is still here. Will try the bath...

Feeling ever so slightly sorry for myself, I have a stinking cold and can't sleep because I am all bunged up and can't breath and so I am bored. :cry: All I can think about is having a damned hob nob biscuit (we haven't got any in the house luckily) Rant over...

Hi Returning to CD has been good, I am just finding the end of week 2 tough. I think it has now dawned on me just how long it is going to take on the diet to lose all the weight and then felt an overwhelming desire to quit. I have done really well so far loosing 17lbs but now losing my willpower.

Hi Cooky My husband was made redundant earlier this week so I know exactly what you are going through and been having the same thoughts, £38 is a lot to spend on food. For the moment I am going to keep going, mainly because it's the one thing I can actually control whilst everything else feels...

Thats a good idea thanks moggy thanks.

I took them with me to work but ended up at a client's office all day and not really appropriate to start mixing up a shake.... I didnt get home until 8 and felt really shakey, I usually have a bar on me but had run out. I was just thinking if needs must is it better to have something like a...

Today I wasn't able to have any packs and ended up feeling really faint (understandable I guess) I didn't have any bars or tetra. If you have to eat something what is best to have.

Hi, thanks for letting me join but husband was made redundant yesterday and so I don't think I am going to be able to spend much time on the board, I think it's only fair to give up my spot. Thanks again and wish you guys all the best with your weight losses. Pumpkin

That's good to know!

Hi, I have just restarted the cambridge diet (was on for a month last year but head not in the right place to diet) and am now up to the full water intake I just wondered (sorry to be crude) how long it takes for the whole 10/15 times to the loo a day business takes to settle down. I don't...

Thanks. I started last wednesday. slowly eased my way back in and on Sole Source for 2 days now.

Hi - saw your reply on the advertising board. Would be interested in joining your team if you will have me :)

Hi, I am returning to the Cambridge Diet after a 8 month break - I joined this week and have 4.5 stone to loose. I came across the team area and think its a great idea and would love to join a team. Is anyone looking for a member?

Thanks - just wondered as I will need to book time off to go to doctors.

Hi - I am returning to the Cambridge Diet after about 8 months and wondered do I need to re-obtain the doctors signature?

I just wondered what the trigger was for others to start the diet - was it a photo, comment or just finally you did it - Mine was a photo, at a the gordon ramsey cook off - me with a big bowl of chocolate looking bigger than I had ever done before.

I have the same issue, meeting an old friend and she has booked a restaurant for dinner. I have not told anyone I am on the diet and don't want to just yet. My solution was to look up the restaurant and check out the menu - I have chosen to eat, but will chose healthy options - Soup to start...

That sounds good, I will talk to her at my next meeting. Thanks

I am having real trouble getting enough water down, I used to drink a lot of tea and coffee but can't stand them black. I was just wondering would a stock cube be okay?

I have just made a tomato soup and it is had big white blobs that really stick in your throat and tastes bloomin awful, I am just wondering if I maybe added the water too hot or is it supposed to be like that? It's only my second sachet on this diet so worried if they are all like that then :cry:

Thank you so much for the encouragement, I am really glad I found this site as I am not sure I could do it alone. Managed to get my ticker sorted so I am all set, just got to sort out lunch - I bought every flavour sachet to see which ones are nice - are there any that are foul?

I finally joined, after months of putting it off and excuse after excuse yesterday I became a member of CD. 4st and 8lb to go! Just had a few quick questions that I am sure you have all heard a thousand times - Can my tea intake be counted as fluids or do I have to drink the water on top...

Thank you all for the prompt response, and the encouraging answers. I think that still cooking will be good for me as I cant give up food forever.. lol I can't wait to start, I have a goal in my head of 4.5 stone which I think is achievable. Thanks, I think this is going to be a great...

My husband and I are about to embark on out diets and I had a few questions that you might be able to help with as I am slightly nervous about it all... I have chosen the cambridge diet, my mother suggested lighter life as she has lost 5 stone already but there is not one near me so opting for...
