    Moving from cambridge to slimming world

    I am sure there will be lots of help available on this, I think I personally would move up all the steps, purely because you want to continue losing and slimming world doesn't really have any carb restrictions which is what Cambridge is the opposite of. Your consultant would be best to discuss...

    CD vs LL

    I changed from LL to Cambridge purely for the cost. Although the counselling with LL isn't for everyone, I did find their tougher approach on abstinence and the sessions quite helpful as it challenged your eating problems! With regards to the packs, from memory, they taste pretty similar...

    Mixing Cambridge products with Exante products

    There is also slim and save which has a large variety and I believe is also cheaper. I only use the bars from slim and save as I'm not keen on the Cambridge ones and use the shakes from Cambridge, I have 3 or four packs a day though and the forth will always be a bar if I'm struggling or just...

    Ah okay, then I am sure you are doing plenty of walking!! I can imagine you do not want to waste them, its such a shame its knocking you back. I would deffo recommend your meal before you go, or change it up and have it earlier in the day and a shake just before. I used to go to the gym before...

    Step 1 Sole Source + Gym/water retention

    Take it easy with the exercise if you are almost passing out. Everyone is different but it may just not agree with you whilst on so little calories. Why not do light activity like walking and set yourself an aim for each day (x amount of steps on the pedometer) and incorporate some toning...

    I hope you feel better soon, see if you can do a fast track with your consultant moving up the steps, it might make you feel better than feeling like you are all of a sudden cheating, you might even find a step between you that you can do and continue with that includes both shakes and food...

    Step 1 Sole Source + HATE THE SHAKES

    You can have whatever flavours you like, there are no restrictions (for example I weekly have 21 chocolate mint shakes - as they are my favourite!) There is nothing to make you have a mixture of soups and shakes! Be careful with swapping a shake for a boiled egg though because it opens the door...

    3 stone loss :)

    Can I just suggest that you work your way up the steps before you start your healthy eating and exercising? You can make the two work together and it saves you having a water weight gain in one hit? Congratulations on your loss, you must feel great!

    Cambridge Price Rise

    There are always other options that are cheaper across the internet however with Cambridge you get the support from your counsellor whereas if you buy online you go it alone / support through here. Add up how much you may have spent on lunches / takeaways / drinks etc. Most people actually...

    Query for a Counsellor?

    I would say maybe if you had that relationship with your previous counsellor they might try and see what they can do for you, not too sure if a different one would though. I guess if you don't ask you don't get. Have you tried slim & save as a cheaper alternative? Their products are very similar...

    Cambridge Price Rise

    There is a yearly increase in April on all CWP products. Prices vary by consultant/ area as to what you pay initially and the new price. I currently pay £2.00 per sachet and £2.25 for tetras and bars not sure on the new prices yet. Looking back on threads there have been many price questions...

    Step 1 Sole Source Weigh in #1

    5lbs off this morning! Very impressed. I much prefer a morning weigh in before work because I don't have to worry about any other factor throughout the day. That said its half term next week and I'll have an evening weigh in as my consultant can't do the morning :(

    Bra Alert!!!

    Mine were as described - however that was only whilst I was still on cambridge, when I started eating (too much - hence why I am back) they did fill back up. Definitely agree its down to your genes!

    Good idea, although she does seem very open, the group help out with syns and what's super speed opposed to speed etc and are more than happy to help her out! She's very nice though but maybe I should just keep it to myself :)

    Doctors surgery have a policy of not signing VLCD forms!!!

    When doing LL a few years ago our counsellor said if there was any problems in getting the form signed you could try a private GP (look one up for your local area) they will charge anything from £30-£50 to sign it but if you really want to start on a VLCD then it will get you there quicker than...
