Hello Ladies, Sorry i've been away so long, had loads of work on. Well done on all the fab WI's. I have my second official WI on thursday :). xx

Thanks Beth (I'm following you on twitter lol). I have the same problem with all my friends (apart from my 2 close friends) i'm constantly gettin jip because of the diet, and also off people at work..... well I enventually flipped with them and said 'It's my body and i'll do what the hell I...

Hellooo lovely ladies, sorry to hear that a few of you are feeling a bit down, just stick to it and try measuring instead of weighing if you feel the results arn't showing on scales, sometimes water retention is to blame. I'm on day 10 now and everything is going fine with the diet, I'm in the...

Hope you feel better soon Beth xxx:bighug:

Hi Girlies. Welcome Amy, you'l' lose 2 stone in no time :-). Well this is my 7th day and im over the moon to report that I have lost......... 7lb :-). yeeeeeha, soooo happy. Not actually seeing my CDC until the 18th Jan as I had just over 2 weeks worth of packs from the last time I was on CD...

Hi Egbert :-). Welcome aboard! Sounds like you're doing fab. Aww a bet you're sooooo excited for the big day? 8 weeks will fly by. Day 6 for me (wish it was day 66). Everything going well, nothing exciting to report at the mo haha. Will log on tonight to see what everyone's day has been...

Hi all :-). I said last night 'roll on day 4' ahem..... its actually day 5 haha, minor error hee hee. Beth your posts are great :-). I'm enjoying logging on to see what kind of day you've had lol. My breath is so bad and mouth also dry, but at least im in ketosis I supose. Struggling with...

Hahahaha, eeee highlight of my day. *Happy Face*. Well I peed on the stick this morning and......... I'm in ketosis whooooopy. Hows everyone's day going? It's my totm at the mo and usually I wana eat everything in sight but I got the coil fitted in oct and I now get horendous pains, BUT on...

Aww Beth that's made me laugh :-). Bless, lol. I had an image reading your post of the News reader on Bruce Almighty when he's talking fast?? You know what I mean? ahahahaha. I also have dry mouth, and i'm freeeeezing. But peed on stick this afternoon and i'm supposedly not in ketosis :-(...

Hi Emz, I'm on day 3 and doing well. Feel sooo much better already. I have also done LL in the past and managed to lose 5 stone. But I much prefer CD. I am the same weight as you so would be good to see how we both get on. Im 5ft 5. x

PS, my photo was of me when I lost 3 stone last time on CD. My face is soooo much rounder these days :-(. lol. xx

Afternoon Ladies :-). Well I went to my mams house earlier and she was decorating her bedroom and had bags and bags of old photo's so I sat and had a look. Wowzas I used to be so thin and happy, they were great to see as I feel encouraged. Also seen some really fat ugly one's just after I had...

Aww bless, it doesn't help when all you'll wana do is comfort eat (or at least I do when im ill). Couple paracetamols, hot bath and bed. :). Hope you feel better soon hun. xx

Haha, yep, although I got told the more water I drank the better it would be but for me it didn't really get better. My mouth also feels yacky, like a coating. But stick with the fresheners and sugar free gum and brush regularly and you will be fine. xx

Hi Wills, it's really good to have support from others on the diet as it really does help, especially when we are all going through the same experience. Coke zero can be a life saver, especially when im out with my friends as it's much nicer to drink rather than water (still not wine but hey-ho...

Oh and signs for ketosis are bad breath :-(. It's a killer lol. But use breath fresheners and I chew sugar free gum when Im at work as I work close to my colleagues. xx

Hi LP, welcome to the world of CD. :-). I struggle with the water and the 'peeing' lol. But it gets easier and does eventually become routime and the peeing gets less. Try water flavourings, they're nice. Also you can buy some ketosis stick to pee on from chemist and they'll tell you wether or...

Hi guy's. So pleased to have a few more girlies on-board. 2nd day almost complete with no hiccups. (Still feeling pretty full from xmas haha). I have done this diet on and off for almost 7 years and I know how great it is, my issue is with the maintenance. I lost almost 5 stone first time...

That's great, bet you feel so much better already :-). This is officially day 1 for me and it's going well as i'm so focused. Roll on april/may time when I should be in my size 12's :-). Good luck ladies. Keep me posted. xx

EXCELLENT :-). Now I have some company i'm sure to stay on track, sounds crazy but i'm sooooo looking forward to it. I have 4/5 stone to lose. ASAP. Would love to be a size 12 for summer and my holiday in July to Cyprus. xx

Hi guys, back AGAIN, gained all the weight I lost to fit in my bridesmaid dress (3 stone) in only 5 months. DISGUSTING. Getting back onto CD on 2/1/12. Would be great to have a few people doing it with me?? xx

Aww thanks guys :-). I will update once I have my weigh in on thursday. Have a good day. xx

Hi everyone. Well im here AGAIN :(, I've managed to gain 20lb since the end of july and I'm disgusted with myself. But on a positive note I am meeting with my CDC today at 4pm to restart tomorrow, she is the best and really supports me, shame Ive never had the willpower to finish what I have...

Hi guys. Well what a crazy week i've had. Was at my best friends Hen Do in Liverpool at the weekend so obviously I came of CD for 2 days, had a wicked time. Back on it today for another 5 weeks leading up to the wedding. Hoping to lose at least a stone and a half, fingers crossed. I thought...

Thank you :) weighed myself this morning and it said another 2lb since thursday so I feel much better now :). It is a really good diet, it's quick and safe, just wish I had started ages ago. Good luck hun. xx

Well guys I can't help but feel dissapointed with my weigh in, I lost 3.6lb. I know that's a good weight loss but previois times I've been on diet I've lost between 4-5lb :-(. Staying positive tho. Oh by the way, can anybody tell me how to change name of my thread? Cause this is week three now...

Day 15..... Feels so much more than 15 days lol. Went shopping on saturday for my bridesmaid shoes with my friends and bride to be. They all sat with KFC and I sat with my water feeding my friends 13 week old baby, he's just lush. How is everyone getting on? xx

Aww bless ya. I'm the same when it's my TOTM i suffer bad. Hope u feel better soon hun. xx

Day 10. I started CD 4 days before officially starting with my CDC (I had packs left over from last time a was on this diet), so I have my 1st official weigh in tomorrow night, cant wait :-). But my CDC will only tell me my loss from my first app with her last week, so whatever my loss is I...

Well done you :-) xx

Well day 9..... pleased to say I don't feel hungry and struggled to drink all my shake this morning woohoo. Can't wait till weigh in on thursday. I'm starting to panic a bit now about my bridesmaid dress, I really really wana feel pretty in it, and all the other bridesmaids are a size 10 and 12...

Hi girls. Well im pleased to say I also got through last night. phew it was touch and go haha. Feel so much better today. How you guys doing today? xx

Haha that made me giggle cause it sounds like something I would do :-). I dont know whats going on with me tonight cause I am generally hungry. Maybe its because its my TOTM. I hope that's the reason (and I hope it passes soon) there's nothing worse than feeling hungry. Sorry if I'm rambling but...

Hi :-). Im on day 7 and have been 100%, felt fine this morning but WOW tonight I am soooo hungry (had plenty water as well). I'm actually going mad, belly's rumbling and I am craving something tasty. grrrr. You aren't alone. Think i'm gona have to go to bed just to get through tonight :-(. x

Its my weigh in on thursday but according to my scales I am 13.12. And I was 14.5 on my CDC's scales at my 1st app last week, but I started CD 4 days before my 1st app with CDC as I had packs left over from the last time I was on diet, so I've lost roughly 10lb in a week woohoo, im happy with...

Hi hun, the first three days are hell, im not gona lie, but after that you will start and feel better. Im on day 7 and feel fine, and well into the diet. But the first 3 days I did the same as you, early nights and was in a bad mood. Once you have your first weigh in and see how much you lose it...

Im sure you will have a good loss hun, its my TOTM also and it hasn't affected mine. It is making me crave food tho lol. I'll resist as usual. xx

Hi Kelly, sorry for late reply, just seen ur comment. I would love to get down to 10stone for wedding but not that isnt gona happen, Ive worked out I can get to 11.3 (ish) which would still be great, just wish I had started earler to give my more time. How about you? xx

Hi Vickie, This is day 7 for me, and like you the first few days were hell. But Im feeling great now and can already feel the diet working. My weigh in isnt until thursday which will be 10 after start. I did have a sneaky peak on scales this morning and they said I had lost 10lb 3/4 :-), the...

Hi guys, sorry I havn't replied earlier, I stayed at my BF last night and forgot my laptop grrr. Well this is now day 7 for me (could really of had a booze last night as well but didn't). Had my shake instead and an early night. Thanks for your support bout the dress (size 12 here I come)...

Hi guys, Im feeling so much better, got loads more energy too woohoo (pleased about that). Well im on day 6 and today has been the best day so far, no cravings and not feeling hungry :-) And my daughter just had a subway and left some and it went straight in the bin haha, well done me. How is...

The dress i have ordered is a size 16 and fits well but REALLY want it to be altered to (at least) a 14 :-), maybe pushing it a bit to be a 12. Hows your day going? Im on day 6 now and feel fine woohoo. Altho my daughter has just had a subway grrrrr. xx

Woohoo, I have a buddy :-) lol . And definately no cheating (I WILL look good in that dress) :-). And.... mmmmm pizza hut :-P. *Mouth watering* xx

Hi guys, anyone else on day 5 of CD. Hows everyone feeling? I want to lose 3 stone in 11 weeks to get into that damn bridesmaids dress for my best friends wedding. My dress is currently a comfy size 16, would love it to be a 12. What you guys reckon...... is it do-able? Hope everyone is well...

I am the same, I cook loads when im on CD, my family think its great as they obviously get to eat it all. It satisfy's me for some reason. Thought I was the only one haha. xx

Yeah will do. Thank you. xx

Hi everyone, Hows everyone getting on today? x

Yep Im definately gona add exercise in to it this time. And not eat like a pig when I finally go in to mainatnence. Ive been in bed for the past 15 hours, dont feel right at all, got the shakes really bad, my body is rattling and my heart is racing, got no energy and my body feels so heavy :-(...

I dont mean milkshakes either by the way lol. I mean my whole body is shaking and my heart is racing. xx

Have any of you guys had the shakes? my whole body is rattling :-(. on day 4. SS. Its never been this bad when ive restarted. xx

WOW, well done, thats amazing. I hope my pics look the same after 13 weeks. Im also from the North-East :-). x

Im on day 4 of my restart and feel really shakey and well just odd. dizzy, and light headed, I feel like im floating. It gets worse everytime I restart (ive been on and off CD for the past 4 years) I dont feel hungry now which is good but the other side effects are really getting to me. Im...

Hi guys im on day 4 of my re start. Lost 5 stone last time and would like to lose at least 3 for my best friends wedding at the end of july. Good luck xx

I never thought of it that way. thanks. Hope everyone is having a good day :-). xx

wowzas.... 15lb your first week. thats amazing. well done. xx

Hi all. Like i've said on previous posts I have done this diet so many times then put all the weight back on once I reached goal weight (or near it) I am on my 3rd day at mo, the most I have ever lost in my first week is 6lb, I know everyone is different but how come people are losing 10lb there...

Well done Dave, thats great. I have been on this diet many times, always lose round the 5stone mark then hit goal and put it all back on. The most I have ever lost in my first week is 6lb so 11lb is great, well done again. x

Yeah mouthwash is a good idea. It does make you feel paranoid especially if you work close to other people. Apart from bad breath how is everyone getting on?

I like the chicken and mushroom soup and leek and potato, not so keen on the rest as they taste powdery to me. I used to drink them like a cup of soup but now I put them in a bowl and use a spoon, feels more like something proper to eat I guess!. :-) x

Hi all. I really hate the porridge. bleugh :-(. I only really have eitha choc and strawberry shakes and chicken and mushroom soup. Sometimes I'll have my first shake around lunch time then add 2 together in the evening, I like to mix choc and strawberry together, thats nice. Hi Vickie good luck...

Haha, try the chweing gum (sugar free) chew for around 20 seconds and brush your teeth regularly. My CDC also said to get fresh breath spray. Hope this helps. It's a horrible feeling isn't it. x

Hi guys. I started on the 8th, I would like to be a buddy please, this site has really really helped me get past the first three days so I wana say a huge thankyou to everyone *ThankYou* I also hav'nt been on site long enough for pm etc?! xx

Cheryl I think you are doing so well, you're alot stronger than me, I would most definately cave in. Well done. xx

Yeah im the same. My tongue feels all furry as well :-( xx

Hi hun. I am on day 3 and experiencing same problems. I have done CD loads in the past and allowed myself sugar free chewing gum after my first week (no mints tho) It has never affected my weight loss but has made me feel more hungry, Try chewing for 20 seconds then getting rid, this might help...

Hi everyone. Hope everyone is managing ok. Im on day 3 of CD and feel a little tired today. I have 11 weeks to lose as much as possible for my best friends wedding (i've got a lovely bridesmaids dress to fit into) good luck to all. I love this site, it's so encouraging. xx

Oh sorry Ive just seen my last post, I hadnt finished what I was saying, must of pressed the enter buttom by accident :/

I had them left over from when I was attending my CDC at the beginning of year hun. But I fell pregnant so came off diet, then unfortunately miscarried. Burt on a positive note I am back on CD and canrt wait for my app with CDC tomorrow night. We have become more like friends over the years as I...

Hi guys. This is day 3 for CD, however I dont officially see my CDC until tomorrow night. But had packs left over from the last time I did CD. I have 11 weeks to lose as much as poss as im maid of honour at my best friends wedding. 10lb is fab well done. xx

Sorry I didn't introduce myself, Im 24 and have a beautiful daughter, she is 7. I have been on and off this diet for the past 4 years, before that it was Lighter Life. When i first started LL when I was 18 I lost almost 6 stone, going from a size 22 to a size 10/12 and I felt fantastic, but...

Well done, thats great :-). I feel fine today so far, was really hungry last night and couldn't get on my laptop to get some encouragement from you guys, however i didn't cave and just went to bed instead. Do I have to get points on here to upload a pic? *confused face* thanks everyone. Good...

I would like to lose 10lb in 2 weeks :-). fingers crossed. I hope ive sent this reply in the right place, im so not computer literate haha. xx

Thanks hun, I think Ive done it :-) xx

Hi guys. I would like to join please? completely new to this site and dont really have a clue what im doing tbh. I have wrote on a few threads and cant seem to find them now to see if any1 has replied :-(. can any1 help? thanks. xx

Hi Alli, well done for joining CD. Im on my second day all though I have been on and of it was the past 4 years. I have always done really well on it but never been able to stick to maintanence hence the reason ive been on it so many times. good luck. kate xx

Well done that's great. I am on day 2 of CD although I have been on and of it for the past 4 years, I know how good the results are and how much I can lose, but regardless of that these first few days are a killer. I'm so pleased I found this site as its really encouraging and spurring me on. xx
