    Hi again

    I'm not a proper newbie, as was on the site 3 years ago when I was doing the Cambridge Diet. Since then I've moved from the UK to Australia. In the past couple of years I've had problems with my stomach. After tests and endoscopies all came back ok, I've been advised to try a low FODMAP diet...

    (Sort of) newbie

    Hello, just wanted to pop onto the WW area to say hi. I've done WW a few times, and last year I got to the point where I wasn't committed at all. Took drastic action and started CD in Jan, lost 3 stone and then lost the will to live as needed to feel like I could eat normally again. So, 2 weeks...

    I'm Hungry!

    As cyprusbride says, there are LOADS of reasons why your weight fluctuates. Try to stay off the scales in between official weigh ins, as it can be really disheartening. My weight fluctuates by about half a stone in a day, so make sure you do it at same time every day.

    Flavours???

    Hi Sam, I found the potato & leek horrid too, which I was surprised about as I love my own home made stuff. I find the soups taste better with a few chilli flakes in, and loads of black pepper. I would suggest trying as many flavours as you can in the first few days, to see what you like. Also...

    Am about to give in!!!! Pls help!!

    Don't give in!! I split my packs up (as advised above) which does help, and warm drinks often help make you feel fuller than cold ones do. Make sure you have the soup in a bowl with a spoon rather than a mug too as it takes longer to eat. Having an early night for a couple of days might help...

    Disasterous 1st wk weigh in

    Hey there, 3lb is a good loss, and as someone said above, on any other diet you would have been chuffed to bits. I know on weeks I have lost 1lb it is disheartening, but then its usually followed by a good loss, and its great that you are finding it easy to do and are still willing to carry on...

    One of my problems has always been snacking at night. I used to save some of my bar each day for the evening, but wanted to get out of that habit - I hope then if I get used to not having sweet stuff after tea then I wont feel I need to when I go back to eating (fingers crossed!!)

    HELP!!! im new

    Hi Pam, welcome on board. I would advise trying to cut down on carbs a couple of days before you start. I did this and was best advice I could have been given, as was quickly into Ketosis and didn't feel hungry in the first few days. Best of luck, and hope to hear lots from you .

    I've stuck to the diet 100% too. I have had days of wanting to eat, but am determined so have not given in.

    Thats great. I would suggest trying to stay off the scales though and have it as a big surprise on WI day. I tend to sneak on once over a weekend, but then stay away rest of time, as my weight fluctuates from day to day and don't want to have a bad day simply because scales had gone up. Well...

    Hi LL, good luck with the restart.

  135. Bobbin

    How much lost in how long?

    I have lost 25lbs in 7 weeks. Although not as much as a lot of people on here I am still really happy with that. If I had gone back to do WW I would be lucky to have lost half that. I have stuck to it 100% and am finding it pretty easy most of the time, I think I have found it

    Day 13 - so why

    Hi Essexmum & FP, I found that when I could have the bars they helped as I could spread them over the day easier than the soups and shakes. I nearly always have my shakes as 2 half packs, and always do that with soup. I use about 300ml of water with each half pack of soup. Means that of you do...

    Evening munchie

    Evenings and weekends worse for me too. I think you did so well resisting temptation. I have never actually been hungry in 7 weeks doing this, but have had days when all I wanted to do was eat. I stayed up in my bedroom watching tv to try and pass the time, or have been on here as time flies...
  143. Bobbin

    Soups

    Like the Chicken & Mushroom, Oriental Chilli and vegetable. Can someone tell me how to make poppadums or crisps as when I tried they stuck to grease-proof paper and it was a disaster!!!

    Hi Jo, if you can get through the first 3 days to get into ketosis then you don't feel hungry (its great!).

    Thats brilliant, well done you!! Its great when you notice something other than your weight changing as we can get so hung up on the scales. Its taken me 5 weeks to lose what you have so you should be very proud of yourself

    Hiya and welcome to Minis and CD! Did your CDC give you a stick to test if you are in ketosis?? I sometimes get a funny tum, the water should help though. Hope you feel better soon
