Sorry I shouldnt have mentioned the C-Word lol x

I need Ketosis heaven more than chocolate cake! :-)

Last time I did Cambridge I kept cheating (second day even)and thinking oh well...I now know I wasnt in the right frame of mind. I feel different this time for sure :-) Good luck with your weigh in tomorrow I look forward to hearing your weight loss :-)

"yuk look at that fat girl sweat". I always have an urge to say. " look mate, if i was thin i most definitely wouldn't be here. In not here for fun you know!" i am very lucky because i normally go at off peak time so sometimes Im there alone. . . Even then i wonder if the staff are watching on...

I couldnt give up on day 5...you do the worst bit and thats when its supposed to get easier! All that for nothing. I suppose you have to be int he right place and frame of mind emotionally to be on this diet and maybe your friend wasnt... x

Definately. All about imagination! If im feeling really desperate I go on the internet and look at the beautiful dresses that I couldnt hope to wear being the size I am and imagine that Im going to feel a million dollars on my hen weekend when I step out in "the dress" :-) x

I have chocolate shake for breakfast lunch and dinner because thats all i like lol. Its boring but I dont think about the taste. Just want to get it down my neck as quick as possible lol x

Thanks Rkmriddell. I need all the suppprt I can get :-) x

Iv restarted too and on day 3.am feeling it but so determined. Good Luck to you x

How is everyone getting on? Im on day three and I seem to have every side effect going,cold feet,headache,aching legs, disjointed sleep. They say when you get to day 4-5 the feeling passes. I hope so, I think my body is in a state of shock from no carbs!lol x

Thanks guys. It helped a lot last time but I think it helps when you have a goal in mind...special occasion etc. I thinkt he reason I failed last time is because I like to go out and have a few drinks with the girls and Iv resigned myself to the fact if I want to lose weight I have to make...

Hi everyone. I started Cambridge back in November and lost a stone but in January my partner and I decided to get married (date is 22nd Sept). After countless nightmares of my backfat over my beautiful dress and double chin I have decided its now or never. First goal is to lose 20lbs by 7th...

Hi fattoslim. I went off plan over christmas but I am back on the wagon now :-) x

Hi Iv started again today too...fingers crossed and good luck to you hun x

I lost 6lbs on my first go round. Lost a stone in the first month but then stopped...I have started again today and the hunger pains are kicking in but if I want another baby this weight has got to go!!!Good luck x

Hi guys. My daughter and have been very ill and my partner been workign away so things have been tough. Got weighed on Monday and I had put on 1lbs. I was expecting ti as hadnt stuck to plan through all the sickness. Been doing really well last 2 days. Am in ketosis and not hungry :-) How is...

Red...not many could pull this dress off but it honestly looks stunning on you :-) x

Plus I been trying for a baby for the last 6 months and Im STILL not pregnant. Fat and not pregnant is not a good place to be is it... :0 Will stop feeling sorry for myself now and go fill up my water glass. Hope everyone is having a good day xxx

It is taking all my considerable willpower not to go off plan today. I feel like Im going to burst into tears. Im cold,tired and miserable and I want sausage and mash so badly. I just keep grabbing my extra flesh to remind me why Im doing this...yes that is the extent it has got to. Am running...

Well even though you cheated a sweet chlli wrap isnt too bad. only 284 calories in KFC (if thats where you got it from) the carbs arent great though :-( dont beat yourself up just start again tomorrow. EVeryone slips up its how you deal with it that should matter. I wrote a similar post to...

I am also a smoker but when Im in ketosis they taste disgusting...never finish a whole one. Its good because I smoke less but annoying because I cant enjoy food or my nasty cigerettes x

Just being able to fit into a size 12 dress and not have to breathe in will be reward enough for me :-) x

hey max yeah can you believe it i lost 1.4 pounds i was in shock! considering how bad i was - i was dancing on tables and drinking wine from the bottle :( still worried it will catch up with me this week so trying really hard! You sound like me on a saturday night lol.Swinging from the...

Keep going as you will get there. Reading your diary and eating habbits I think you are a lot like me. Im missing my social life around eating with friends etc. I ahve "off days" where I dont stick to plan but Im determined to keep going even if it takes a little longer to lose the weight. Am...

Well done on getting through your first day.It was torture for me but as everyone else says it gets SO much easier. Good luck! x

Wow you still lost! Well done you!!!! Iv been poorly this week and in bed so Im expecting to have put on this week too but it doesnt matter Im going to start again :-) x

Been really poorly this week and off work. Havent stuck to the plan at all as havent been bothered to even make my milkshakes let alone drink them. My mum has been bringing me some home-cooked dinners round and I know its really naughty! Im still going to get weighed tomorrow and then back to it...

Fed up today...I miss food everything about it and I miss a takeaway with my lovely man on the sofa with sweets and a film...why cant I just reprogramme my brain or just be one of those natuarally skinny girls!!!????????????

How did your weigh in go Bluegirl?xxx

I do feel more positive. When Im at work I find it so easy to stick to but its weekends that I struggle with as I like to take my little one out and normally meal times break the day up for me. I am getting use to the change now tho and do find it a lot easier :-0 xxxx

Whenever I get that horrible hunger feeling I drink loads of water which sometimes helps x

Good luck, everyone on here is great and have helped me so much! Lets all be thinner and healthier together lol x

Toni you are doing so well. Make sure you enjoy your meal and dont sit and worry too much otherwise it will spoil you having a good time. Chicken kebab is a great choice too :-) xxx

I have a completely refreshed attitude today. I am goign to be SO strict with myself as I want to lose 5lbs this week so I can have my first stone off. Think I am out of ketosis (my own fault) but Im ready and my head is back int he right place to keep going x

I text her and she said she doesnt advise to measure as it can be mis-leading....good job I got you lot to tell me about this sort of thing lol x

Well done for not giving in. Everyone has a bad day here and then and the more you resist the temptation the easier I find it is and the less "bad" days there are :-) x

I am only in my second week and I am struggling a little because it is a whol;e lifestyle change isnt it and not just a diet. I have given myself a kick up the backside and goign to be REALLY strict this week because i want to go down a dress size in time for xmas. How have you felt losing the...

My CDC hasnt even offered to measure me...Im on SS+ and havent had a booklet or anything...little disappointing x

Forgive,forget and start again...thats what Im doing after my 1 (ok 3) glasses of wine last night x

Honestly it is so cold, my hands have constantly been like ice the past week but they say it can be a side affect from CD. Im rubbish at being cold.sat at work with 2 cardigans on like a little old woman lolx

Cheers hun. I need to step it up now tho and really be good...we eat to live, not live to eat blah blah blah lol x

I lost 3.5lbs...think Im happy with that...x

Im at work today at my lonely desk whilst everyone is having nachos - im so glad i found this site gives me something to do and takes my mind off the food and the smells ... totally understand this I am the same. Takes my mind off things. I was the same last week,my daughter had her 3rd...

WELL DONE!!! That is such a great result! If sometimes you feel like not exercising youe shouldnt. Listen to what your body is telling you. Seems you are conquering your cravings a lot better than me. Its my WI tomorrow morning and Im not looking forward to it. Will keep you posted and again...

Good luck result will be worth all of your efforts I Promise :) Thanks hun. I need the luck :sigh:

Good luck fallen - I think you will do great and have a great attitude. Im not goign to pretend Im an angel on this diet. Im 25,work full time and have a 3 year old daughter...sometimes I need to let my hair down and have a few drinks with my friends. If that means it takes me longer to lose...

Morning. I feel much better today thanks. A good nights sleep was all thatw as needed I think :-) plus I can feel in my clothes that I have lost weight. They arent so uncomfortable and a few people have commented that I look thinner in the face...all will be revealed at my WI tomorrow morning...

Having the worst day possible today. Dont think its just being on CD just a bad day in general I have been holding back the tears all day. All I want to do is go home and comfort eat cakes,chocolate and crisps to make myself feel temporarily better. Although I know Il feel worse tomorrow. Early...

Alderney - I completely agree with you with the walking part. I am also really grumpy st times. Usually when its dinenr time and everyone eating a nice dinner i have stood and prepared. I literally put my I-Pod in. Slam the door on the way out and walk all my frustrations off...my OH says when I...

Fingers crossed for your weigh in Fattoslim. Let us know how you get on :-) xxx

Hi hun. Has been my little ones birthday so rather preoccupied. I ahve been great. i am not strugglign at all which is a surprise to me. Only problem is I have my chicken and veg of a night and cant keep it down...my body just rejects the food and it comes straight back up. happened 2 nights in...

Im doing SS+ and I have chicken breast in the evenings with tiny amount of mushrooms. Can I add some sort of spice to it like cajun chicken or fajita or is that a silly question? It would taste so much better!

Hahaha that made me chuckle. No I am complete opposite. I walked past chipshop yesterday and held my breath so I couldnt smell it. My partner feels uncomfirtable eating in front of me....he said "stop looking at me like that.Soon some fireballs are going to explode from your eyes and kill me"...

Yes...!!!!!!!Im craving a curry...me and my other half always had a curry on a Friday after hard week at work. Im going to have to go for a walk. Everytime he eats he said he think fireballs are going to burst out of my eyes and kill him with the looks he gets lol. x

Yes I think the only way I can beat that hunger is dopwn water. I also am not strong enough to sit down with people whilst they are eating and not feel like I want to cry. Went and got the lads at work a baguette today whilst I done the banking. I was tapping my foot and closing my eyes at the...

I fell off the wagon too, felt really guilty about it so I went out for an half hour walk when daughter was in bed for next three nights until my weigh in and still lost 5.5lbs. (mine was burger too...ooops)xxx

P.S Well done on your 8lbs loss bluegirl.Thats amazing! x

Hi everyone. Well I weighed in yesterday even though I really didnt want to since I had cheated but...I lost 5.5lbs which REALLY shocked me!!! It has given me more motivation than ever to keep going because I thought of what I could of lost. I dont feel hungry anymore I just have to battle...

I have slipped too in my first week. I went out walking to ease my guilt and get me ready to start again the following day. Good luck - DONT give up!!! I just met my mum and sister for lunch and they had lush paninis whilst I had my shake. Was hard at first but forgot about what they were eating...

Yes I hope so too. Yesterday I got my tracksuit on and i-pod and walked in the rain for a good hour and I came back and felt like a new person. With me I think its hardest at night when Im on the sofa as I would pick pick pick. Now Im going to get out the house whilst littlun is in bed and by...

Hi guys. Just to let you know I feel great today. I carried on with my shakes and went for an hours walk with my I-pod to walk the frustration off and I came home felt so much better and a lot less guilty. Im getting weighed tomorrow so fingers crossed :-) x

You look SO GOOD! Well done you xxx

Do you think its best I dont get weighed this week and carry on so I dont put myself off if I have put on...?x

To be honest a lot of people around me have been trying to put me off and my partner was like oh it wont hurt...need to have my own mind really and stick to it! Its not about what anyone else thinks i suppose is it...x

Well done :-) x

Hi guys. Having bad day today but going to pick myself back up and carry on. weigh in is thursday so if Iv lost anything Il be happy...x

Iv REALLY got the hump with myself. Only on day 6 and I ate a burger last night (cringe). I have carried on with my shakes today and determined not to let it ruin it but I just though it got easier after first three days and actually it is harder. I miss food so so much. Am questioning whether...

Day 4 today and I feel AWFUL! Worse than the other days. No energy and my body feels bruised and tired. Want to go to bed so badly and just sleep. Thought it was going to get easier :-(

Hi guys need some help! I work full-time and have an hour off for lunch...what do you do when you cant go eat?Iv been driving around feeling a bit lost. This is the time when Im really going to miss food I think. Dont know what to do with myself! Had my second shake and still hungry. Wish I...

Kerrypants your story really touched me...I feel a little the same.my sex drive has gone and was a reason for starting the CD. The bigger I get the less I want it, feel self conscience and disgusting, now Im goign to do something about ti and get my confidence back!x

Hi. I am also new to this(First day today). I know Im going to struggle to keep focused. I dont know if it will help you but I have stuck a picture next to my desk of when I was MUCH slimmer and I think it will encourage me every day :-) good luck
