    Keep restarting!

    Think of all the smaller sized clothes you want to buy in the sales! I am in a similar situation, I want to lost at least a stone before xmas and then maintain it over the holidays by exercising regularly and hopefully lose a bit more and keep it off!! We can do it, if you give yourself short...

    Step 1 Sole Source Re-starting tonorrow :).. wish me luck!

    Hi all! I did Cambridge from jan - march this year and lost about 90% of the weight I wanted to. I had too many social engagements coming up so I had to stop about 2 weeks off target with the attention of restarting soon after but of course that didn't happen! Over the course of 9 months I've...

    Sole Source Plus

    I've been on ss+ for 7 weeks now and it's what that keeps me going! You're allowed to have quite a bit of food (considering it's still a vlcd!) and it's good to have that to look forward to at the end of the day. Also, based purely on calories, the weight loss difference between ss and ss+ is...

    SS+ meal ideas?????

    Hi ican, yes I checked with my consultant, she said garlic granules are fine. Also the veg are all listed in the CD book, only caveat is that you have to stick to 80g of all veg in total! It's still a decent amount though! Sarah, I hope the meal ideas worked for you! Dee xx

    SS+ meal ideas?????

    Hi Sarah! I am also on ss+ and my favourite meal by far is chicken (grilled) with green peppers, mushrooms and cucumber.. Not incredibly exciting but what makes it delicious for me is the seasoning I use to marinate the chicken - chilli flakes, cayenne pepper and chilli powder with some garlic...

    TOTM

    Thanks guys, I think I'm past my horrible phase now, getting back into the routine.. Day 14 and still going strong! It helps to hear from other people when they see me that I have lost weight, that's what keeps me going the most I think! But yes the crankiness I can definitely identify with...

    Ketosis on 810?

    From what I understand, Ketosis is the process that occurs when our bodies start breaking down fat to produce energy which happens when we remove carbohydrates from our diet.. So as long as you are consuming a diet free of carbs your body should go into ketosis.. At least that's what I think...

    TOTM

    Hi guys.. I'm on day 7 of ss+ and it feels harder than ever right now. My first 5 days were fine, no problems at all. I was worried something was wrong with me because it felt too easy!! But since then I have found it so hard and keep thinking about how on earth I'm going to complete the diet...

    Starting on 14th jan!

    Yum - let us know when you try it out! So day 1 is up.. I feel full, but not satisfied with my intake.. If that makes sense!! Definitely dreaming of food but not craving anything enough to break the diet. I don't feel too positive about the next couple of days though, they seem to be the worst...

    Porridge..

    Thanks danii I think i might just end up exchanging them! I might try one with sweeteners to see what it's like.. But I don't have high hopes.

    Porridge..

    Plain.. When I have normal porridge (which I love!) I alway have it plain with sugar.. Not a fan of having it with fruit/syrups etc!

    Porridge..

    Hi, I've been reading through some of the comments here and it seems the general consensus is that the porridge is BAD! Is there anyone out there who likes it?! I bought 7 packs from my CDC but I'm reluctant to even try one based on what everyone is saying. Also it's my first day and I'd rather...

    Yep tetras are fine although be careful when you heat them - my consultant said if you boil it too much it may reduce the nutrients in the product. But I agree with maddie, they taste great heated up especially in winter!

    Having breakfast now! Warm chocolate flavoured tetra brick.. It's not too bad I guess!

    The "15 minute" rule - pls help

    My consultant told me yesterday that the shakes and soups have to be consumed within 15 mins or they lose their nutritional value.. The tetra bricks aren't affected by this rule apparently, so blending them in the morning for lunchtime shouldn't be a problem!

    Starting on 14th jan!

    Thanks for the support guys! I'm prepared for the worst so hopefully it should be ok.. Plus the thought of losing 7lb in a week is definitely enough to keep me going! Babymumma2 so glad to know someone else is starting the same day, look forward to catching up on your progress!

    Hi! So I'm starting on Cambridge for the first time tomorrow.. Feeling a bit apprehensive but reading everyone's experience here has helped.. Seems like Monday/Tuesday will the the worst days for me but hopefully I can get past it!! The worst time for me will be at work & my colleagues' constant...

    Inspiration and advice needed!

    Hey! If you've done it before you can do it again, the negativity is all in your mind. That cappuccino will still be there in five weeks but the fat your trying to lose won't be! You just have to remove yourself from tempting situations.. Dont go to the coffee shop/kitchen etc and keep yourself...
