oh my god she looks amazing :) thanks for posting this!! x

iyi bayramlar :)

Hi - I have just got zumba for the wii and I think its brilliant!! Feel so good after i've done it - and its really fun too. You can learn the steps first before you do a "class" beginner starts off at 20 mins and I think it goes up to 45mins but I would definitely recommend it :)

That's amazing - I agree with comment above knowing somebody else similar to what i want to lose can do it just gives me more motivation to do it too!! Your really inspirational!! xx

Hi thank you for the response :) Im a real worrier and i keep thinking the longer it takes me to get back into the diet the more weight i could possibly put back on but i know i can do it otherwise i wouldn't have done cambridge for so long. How long have you been doing this for now? xx

Thanks for the replies. @charlie's mummy ... i actually do think that is the reason my consultant was lovely and i guess it was just that 30 mins alone with someone who actually knew what u were going through and been successful that was giving me more motivation! Good luck to both of you too!! xx

hello thanks for the reply :) I came straight from cambridge. Tbh i don't know whats wrong with me as I stuck to cambridge SS religiously! Thanks for the advice i don't know what i would do without my water now never thought i would say that lol

Title says it all really i am finding it so difficult to get into this diet :cry: i do not really know why as i have been doing cambridge for the last 10 weeks and i can see it works and how happier i have become!! Does anybody have any tips or advice?

Hello, I am currently doing the Cambridge diet but I am finding that it is really expensive (dont get me wrong it is worth it!) I just really cant afford to be paying that much out and i think :confused: this one is similar but less expensive! I was wondering if someone could tell me what...

thats fantastic well done! x

This is a SUPPORTIVE website not for comments like that. If you have nothing nice to say dont say anything at all!!!

Good luck :) x

:sad0071: ... im sooo angry with myself!!!! :(

Hi - i think everyone is different like the shakes everyone has different tastes. Ive just started to get them and i love the peanut ones! Hope you enjoy them!

Hi :) welcome to CD/Minimins Good luck on your CD journey x

Hi maria... thats fantastic well done!! :) Im glad your feeling motivated again. Im always cold i just cant seem to get warm again especially on a night its sooo annoying! x

i think that the hardest time for me is on a night when im with my family and watching them eat! even if i dont even want it the smell of it just makes me crave it! its so annoying because i know before this diet the smell of some of the stuff would have knocked me sick haha!! How long have u...

Hi Hannah - ok day today but i feel like an iceberg at the minute haha :) how are you? how has your day been? x

Hi haninhudds thanks! the only reason i wanted it was for my arms too bummer oo well ill just have to figure out another way of getting nice toned arms!! :) x

I know its horrible - i just cant believe that some people actually think its the right thing to do!! Hopefully it stops before anyone else is hurt/killed! x

Oh Gosh. I hope your not near all that horrible stuff thats happening down there at the minute. I'm turkish (dont know if the big flag on my avatar gave it away lol) but Ive been living in Middlesbrough for a very long time x

ooo cool! where abouts are you from then? Hope you dont mind me asking that? xx

Its made my life a real misery and Ive just recently turned 20 and Im getting married next year just enough is enough like you "i need to change my life" And it is working already I know ive got a lot more to shift but seeing the difference a couple of stone makes is amazing. if you stick on...

no nothing as extreme as this tried weightwatchers and that just failed really badly :D I didnt even know about this until i saw it in a magazine i was straight on the net. Ive suffered from depression and anxiety for ages and I know its mainly down to how I see myself but im soo glad i started...

No problem at all :) Ooo mine is too but i like mine made with hot water like a hot chocolate before i go to bed :D I haven't tried the tetras just the shakes, soups and bars but I am quite surprised I've never done this sort of thing before so I was expecting them to taste terrible but they...

Hi Maria :) Good luck with your CD journey. So glad that you joined that group as its so nice to be able to speak to people in the same position! What shakes have you had so far? I almost gave up after the first day after tasting the porridge lol :D xx

Hey everyone ... does anyone in here use Slendertone?? I was flicking through a magazine when i saw an advertisement for it and just wanted to know if anyone had, had any experience with it and it it really works?? xx

aww bless him hes a cutie. Mine is 18 months old called bella and shes loopy! btw whats a MAM? x

he's a chocolate lab? ive got a black one and she is spoilt too!! :) how old is he? x

Hi Susie :) Is that your dog?? its soo cute!! x

Morning everyone .. hope everyone feels ok and has a good day :D x

I'm sure you will do yourself proud - try and drink some water before you eat and it might make you feel full quicker. Hope you enjoy yourself! x

Hi ellafenella - I'm sorry that you are feeling like that today. You should be really proud of yourself for getting through the first week and the amount that you lost and just remember your not alone you got all of us girls in here to talk to! In relation to the tiredness i dont get tired i...

Hi :) Good Luck with your weight loss journey. I think they say on average its about a stone a month xx

Morning everyone. Hope everyone has a good day today ... Thank you Mariah and redhead 66 they sound yummy might have to try them this week :D x

How do you make muffins and stuff? Do you need a special thing to make them?? Mariah i'm glad your feeling better and i find the bars really nice and adds a bit of variety when you get fed up with the shakes! :) x

thanks ellafenella so was your loss!! :) @ redhead - hope you get the loss you want :) xx

well done thats fab x

I've hit two stone now so bloody happy :D Hope everyone has had a good day x

Thats fantastic well done :) x

Hi mariapcollins .. welcome to you too. What are the water flavourings like are they nice? Good luck with your weigh in i bet you will be suprised and congrats on losing 8lbs last week that is fab!! How much are you looking to lose over all?

Oh God sorry i dont really know what a hernia is ... (dont get me wrong ive heard of it before) sounds painful though!

Thank you :) I am so chuffed ... I hadn't even hurt of this diet before until i saw it mentioned in a magazine and I was on it within the same week - i was in a really bad rut at the time but i can finally say now there is light at the end of a very long tunnel haha!! Surgery to help you lose...

Ive lost just under two stone and this is my sixth week x

This is my first attempt at this diet so I think its amazing how much people can lose on it and how quickly you see the results. To be honest I dont even know where my willpower is coming from i have never stuck at another diet this long before but i'm glad i am :) Also I know what you mean...

Thats fantastic - Im sorry to be so nosy I just find it really motivating to hear different peoples stories :)

Hi RedHead66 :) Welcome back to CD!! Hope you dont mind me asking but how long did it take you to lose the 60lbs before? X

thank you Ellafenella :) I have a big incentive as i am getting married next year so I know i cant just give up like i have done in the past with previous diets!! Your dogs sound soo cute .. Bella (my dog) is still only young but she has loads of energy i got her so it would help me lose weight...

Ellafenella -Oh, that was really obvious as well trust me not to be able to work that one out!! Im 20 (I really hate admitting that because I think how can I be youngish and be like this?!) Anyway what kind of dogs do you have?? I have a crazy black lab shes mental :) Hope you have a good day too!

personally I have been ok with it - it hasn't affected my loses and I have read other people have used it too. I think the only reason why it is not recommended is because it makes your body feel like its going to intake food but Ive found that it helps when other people are eating to just have...

I know what you mean about the porridges it made me gag :D I wish I could have the house to myself to chill out, I have to sit and watch my sister eat fish n chips and not put on a once of weight whereas I only need to look at them and I put on the weight!! Btw - what does BH mean? x

oh I see thank you :) x

Hi Mariah ... whats a tetra? I dont think i've had one of those before? Could you chew on some sugar free gum to try and take the taste away a bit? (I have before and it hasn't affected my loses and makes me feel less like I will knock someone out with my breath!!) x

Morning, glad your feeling better today! I like cleaning so Ill pop my ipod on and hoover, wash, iron away and that normally keeps me busy for a long time - hope that kind of helps

Hello :) yeah it is really hard but (and I know everyone says it) you do get used to it and it does become easier. When I first started I didnt think i would have the willpower to be able to get through the first day let alone the first week without any food but I just keep thinking on how i'm...

Hi There ... im on week 6 of SS a little bit further on than you but I am looking to loose more or less the same so I could be a buddy?

Bloody hell thats fantastic! Well Done!! xx

Thank you :) yeah i am - the smile hasnt gone from my face yet haha ... how are you getting on?? xx

-6lbs :bliss:..... im SOOO happy :D only another 5lbs to go and thats 2 stone ... I love this diet

Hello :) I lost 8lb in my first week but other people have lost more - but i think you lose more in the first week because of the water your losing (i think) im still pretty new to it myself :D Good luck with your journey xx

Dont be silly you dont need to be sorry this is what the forums for!!! It might be because of your time of the month why you stayed the same. Just take tomorrow as a new start and be positive and if you ever need a chat im always here xxx

yeah that is very true :) was your weigh in today?? How did you get on? xxx

I actually find it easier during the weekends with all my family around me watching so I know i cant cheat whereas during the week i am mostly alone so there is no-one to stop me sneaking something (which Thank God i haven't) :D The thing that I find the hardest is coming on here and comparing...

Aww thanks :) I've got my fingers crossed here for you too - you can do it!! I get weighed every monday.

i am sure you will do, just keep positive and you will have to let us know how you get on :) Thats why i like the diet too its really strict and expensive so if you dont stick to it, it's like throwing money down the drain!! I'm getting married next year in May, I'm dreading it i hate being the...

I understand exactly what you mean about wanting a treat you must be really strong to do that because i know for a fact if that was me i would be eating everything in sight thats why i prefer SS :) Losing a few pounds a week is great i guess its unhealthy to just drop loads every week and its a...

I would love to use the wii fit just cant afford one atm! but i do the Rebecca Wheatley DVD. Thanks for the advice!!

that sounds nice i didnt realize you could mix them together? but i might have to give it a go :D

Dont worry I am sure you will be fine :) Hope you dont mind me asking how much do you want to lose in the long run? Ive been on SS for the past 3 weeks and lost just over a stone but i am trying SS+ this week see what that's like :) xx

well done thats a fantastic weight loss so far :) xx

are you on SS? I only lost two pound last week too (went for my weight in last night) its just making me more determined to get more next week :D My week is ok though i wish i could have some sun all its done is rain for the past week!! how is yours?? :) Just focus, believe in yourself and you...

Thank you - i only lost 2lbs last week which was pretty gutting as I have stuck to it %100 so I was hoping the exercise might help :)

Thanks for this post - my CDC is fab :) Texts me how as to how im getting on and is always there when i feel i need someone to talk to!!

oo i haven't tried any bars yet but you've made me want to now haha :) My fave has got to be a hot mint-choc shake :) x

Dont listen to the negative comments you've taken a positive step to loosing the weight you want to hopefully when she sees how happy you are when you begin loosing a lot of the weight you want she will change her mind and support you :) Good luck with your weigh in xx

Thats fantastic well done :) xx

wow well done thats fantastic!! xx

well done that is amazing!! :) Big inspiration xx

Thats my big problem being impatient and expecting it to just drop off :)) but thank you .. how are you doing so far?? xx

Bit disappointed only lost 2lbs :( but on positive it takes it to over a stone in three weeks :)

I know exactly what you mean about the arms! Thats the only bit i am dreading. I dont want cover my arms because it might get hot and sticky but I do hate them. The weight seems to be coming off from everywhere except my arms too - typical!! How long have you been on this diet? And you can do...

Hello.. I tried weightwatchers and I didnt do very well either but I have been doing Cambridge for 3 weeks now and I find it so much better than WW. I have so much more support from my consultant which I think makes it easier especially as its one to one so it sort of motivates me more to not...

Yeah i know exactly what you mean, all i seem to hear at the moment is "just a little bit wont hurt" (well actually it will!!) You also can message me if you need support or anything :) I want to do it during Ramadan - im on SS so I think its going to be bloody hard but i know if i switch to SS+...

I would love to loose loads but i would be happy with about 5/6 (Im getting married and I dont want to look like i do now!!) I'm doing SS too. Do you like the shakes e.t.c that you have had today?

im just into my third week and ive lost a stone already. It does get so much easier once the first few days are over and done with!! which plan are you doing?

not a problem :) I do feel freezing sometimes I just have to go and put something warm on. How long have you been on the diet? Im fairly new to this so Im guessing its just my body getting used to it? Sorry not being much help!

Not doing anything wrong I think you have to post so many times before your allowed to do that (it says the same to me) :) xx

Hi - I know how you feel I am a Turkish Muslim and my getting married next year too and from what you wrote i am probably needing to lose about the same as you, so I know where you are coming from with the food and stuff and it doesn't exactly help that my sister's in law are drop dead gorgeous...

3lbs is good! Well done great loss in just three weeks :) xx

well done thats fab! X

That is amazing - congrats & well done!! What an inspiration! xx

Thank you so much :) I love coming on here and reading everybody's journeys e.t.c and their is always so much support even though I have got it at home its different coming from people who are actually going through the same thing!! xx

Thank you both for your nice messages :) i am so shocked i lost 5 pound which means i have lost exactly a stone in two weeks and 4 inches off just about everywhere :)

my Second WI tonight and i feel miserable as sin!! i dont feel like or look like ive lost anything this week, feel bloated - tbh i look like a beached whale which is making me feel even more miserable as ive stuck to it no cheats or anything!! :( Just wanted a little rant sorry!

i hate the thought of it but i guess if it needs to happen it does. I hope you dont mind I've just seen your from teesside?

Hi .. Hope you dont mind me commenting. I am from turkey - It is beautiful (but i would say that!) There are so many different places to go depending on what you want. The only thing I would be careful for is if your a woman alone you will probably get hassled a lot!! Hope you have a lovely time.

Thank you!! That has put my mind at rest!! Can you do that on SS?

This is my second week i've lost 8lbs so far and inches off everywhere - I dont really know how much I want to loose probably 4 stone (i have really discussed this with my CD consultant) but after reading all those post im worrying now!!

Is it possible to lose the flabby arms without having surgery?? I've been reading on the CD website and most post have said that plastic surgery is the only answer?? I really hate my arms and would love to tone them up or something? Does anyone have any advice??

Can you have sugar free chewing gum (on SS) to make the horrible breath go away??

Yeah :) It was just a bit of a shock - i wasnt expecting it to be cheap but i guess when you do work it out and the end result its more than worth it!

thank you :) damn if i was only one inch smaller im guessing it would be a lot cheaper!!

Does the price of CD go down?? I went to see my local consultant for the first time yesterday and was told that i would have to pay 56£ per week!! Will that change after loosing weight??

Thank you all already! I dont really know how to use this yet but i will but my habits on e.t.c when i get used to it!! Ive been looking at the all the pics and it is amazing i just hope it works for me i'm sick of being the "fat sister" and definitely dont want to be the "fat bride" next...

I'm waiting to go to my first appointment for this diet (on friday) and i am really excited to start this as my size is totally ruining my life!! I know i have got a long way to go and would love for some advice???
