1 tablespoon Dry weight is 15 grams so your SS+ meal can contain 30 grams of the allowed veg or salad. Much easier and top tip go for rocket or watercess or lettuce you get far more:D

Fab post Please tell me that when this is all over you fully intend to become a CDC....you would be a brilliant one:D

Hey Sam push on through Week 1, week 2 is great you get a huge surge of energy and your skin starts to look fab from all the vits and minerals, I am now on week 3 and have to put reminders in my phone to remind me to have the packs as I just do not feel hungry:D Oh and I can now go through...

Walk away from the Broccoli Lily 30 grams is 1 flaming floret:D I am sticking with Watercress and Rocket for the duration:D

Hi ya, You can just rub the Bio Oil in. As for Palmers they do not test on Animals, see link to their website. Palmer's

Shea is good too. The Palmers does actually tone the skin as well and it is in the medium price range so it gets my vote every time. Bio Oil for stretch marks is also fab.

I had been living in Cyprus for 5 years, fantastic life, small house in the middle of nowhere, 3 dogs, horse, great friends and social life and many evenings sitting on the balcony with candles a good bottle of chilled white and great music having me time! I had friends with benefits but no...

Get a Sisal Mitten which you can use in the shower and treat yourself to some really nice shower Gel (its kind of the one thing you can treat yourself to at the moment:D). Shower and exfoliate your skin with the sisal mitt, then when you are still warm from the shower slather yourself in a...

Some really great replies on this thread. I find (and this may be a bit weirdy crystal for some) that I take 30 mins a day to have a shower then rub my body with good old Palmers Coco Butter, during this time I talk to my body, tell it how much I appreciate it, how I am going to make it as...

I had an incident with dropping a full bottle of sparkling mineral water on a tiled floor on Sunday......man the explosion was stunning and 1.5 litres goes a very long way....no wonder I am peeing so much:D

Well my inspiration is a bit different. I am very proud to be the owner of "heartbreak in Nevada" or Vardi for short. He is nearly 5 years old, and is currently being trained for me by a professional Western Trainer. He comes back to me at the end of September so two things; Trainer...

Good luck for day one. Remember lots of folk here who have been there so just call out if you have any questions or need a virtual hug:) I found that not looking at the entire weight I had to lose but just concentrating on the mini goal of "stick to SS for one week" was a great help.

My Friend who lost 5 stone on LL swears by Palmers Coco Butter! apparently you slater yourself in it every day and it helps tone your skin, she also took up yoga and Pilates and had no problem with loose skin, she was 45 when she lost her weight. I am using it now and although not far enough...

Hey Lily, Yep I know but after trying and failing to get an accurate tablespoon of Rocket:D which frankly could be a suitable sport for a Children In Need Fund raiser I found this on t'interweb Equivalents and Measures Dry Measure Equivalents 3 teaspoons 1 tablespoon 1/2...

Am loving SS+, I never realized that skinless chicken and veg could taste so good:D. Am I alone in weighing my veg? I have worked out that 30g of Asparagus is about two big spears, 30g of watercress is about a bowlful:D, 30g of romaine lettuce is not a lot lol. Last night I had a yearning...

2.5 Kilo's or in "normal terms" 5.5 pounds SOOOOOOOOO 1 Stone and half a pound in 2 weeks:D:D CDC is on vacation next week so will see her again on the 21 st June would love to have achieved my 10 Kilo (22 lbs) mini goal for then.

I am loving SS+. I felt totally anal weighing out 30 grams of Asparagus last night but hey ho:D Who would have believed that 30 grams of Asparagus and 100 grams of cooked chicken could be so filling i felt totally stuffed lol Next week I am going to go mad and buy a "mix a Mousse" so I...

I have set my goal at 11 - 10.5 stone. I am 5 ft 6 and this brings me down to a size 12 depending on where I shop. I think also as you get older (I am 47) you need to carry a little bit to avoid the haggard look. What the point in having the body if your face looks 10 years older? So...

I officially started SS+ last night. I had 120 grams of prawns and 30 grams (yes I actually weighed it:rolleyes:) celery. Enjoyed every mouthful then had a choc shake for dessert. My OH was a bit "what in the name of god are you doing" when he saw me weighing celery:D but I know myself...

I am ashamed to admit I found myself carefully measuring out 30 grams of celery tonight:D:D I had it beautifully chopped with some fresh prawns and loved it. What Cambridge does to us indeed:D Cerulean - well done and I love reading your posts from another luvvie who only got to play the...

Thanks ladies, Oh half a pound a week is worth it:D especially as I am weighing in Kilo's so it will be Less than 1 kilo per month and just under a 1/4 kilo per week. Also if I start walking the dogs twice a day as per my plan that should in actual fact negate it. Fab...I will start on...

I have been on Sole Source for 8 days now with a great loss of 9lbs in my first week. However I am thinking that if only for normality's sake being able to sit at the table and eat with my husband I would prefer to be doing SS+ so I can have my mini meal in the evening with him. So how are...

Just had my week one weigh in 4 kilos or 1 oz shy of 9lbs:D:D Onward and downwards.

First weigh in today and 4 kilos down which is 1 oz shy of 9lbs so whey hey:D Onward and upward or downward:D

Well here I am on day Day six of SS! I feel sooooooo cold and am now spending every evening wrapped up in a fleece...so glad I am not doing this diet in the winter:eek: I find that I start to feel hungry but mostly if I have a good glug of water it goes away, my CDC says that so often we...

Hi, Day four now and feeling fine, been down to the horses had a riding lesson on my friends who is a real weight carrier thank god:D mucked out two and groomed mine. Really glad I am not feeling totally washed out as I would still need to do all this feeling bleah! I am doing this in...

Hi TTC, I am also entering day four of sole source today. Felt horrible on Tuesday but much better yesterday apart from feeling cold, ended up sitting on the sofa wrapped in a fleece! I am aiming to lose 28 kilo's initially on Sole Sorce then will swap to SS+ to move the final 10...

Hi Everyone, Been lurking and reading your inspirational diaries for weeks now and finally plucked up the courage to call my CC and go see her again. I had tried the Cambridge last year and lasted 3 days before saying not for me. Spent a year maintaining my weight but I now want and need...
