    Excess Baggage! BiB's Weight Loss Diary !

    Hi guys. Bowing out I am afraid. Had a very emotional evening and after trying 3 more sachets, I just can't stomach the taste :( I wasn't hungry at all, enjoyed the water and was motivated to do it, but its the taste. I was heartbroken, H was great, couldn't believe how much of a state I had...

    Excess Baggage! BiB's Weight Loss Diary !

    That does sound good as I am not actually HUNGRY I don't think, altho of course I could eat, so maybe rather than spreading them out, find one I like, get them eaten and just get on with my day/water etc I do love water, so that is a bonus.

    Excess Baggage! BiB's Weight Loss Diary !

    Quick addition while the kids eat their nauseating tea (hot dogs, how DO they eat those :eek: ) Feeling REALLY low but determined to keep on. Cold and tired and just had to do the food shopping - perhaps should have worked that one out better and done it online or sent H! REALLY feel like...

    Excess Baggage! BiB's Weight Loss Diary !

    Back again. I have to give this a go even for one week. If I can't stick it after then, at least I will have kicked off my weight loss again and I shall do it another way that I CAN stick to. I always KNEW the taste would be an issue and I really wish there was a way to get this out of my...

    Excess Baggage! BiB's Weight Loss Diary !

    Thanks Emmie and Melissa, you have made me feel better. I guess skipping 1/4 or 1/3 of a pack wont kill me, not this early, as long as I make sure I have one full one per day and eat a good 2/3 - 3/4 of the ones I can't stomach while I find some I love! I know its in my head, I am expecting...

    Excess Baggage! BiB's Weight Loss Diary !

    Lunchtime. OMG not sure I can do this and feel SO utterly pathetic :mad: Vegetable soup. Its not BAD but its not great. I can taste what I guess is all the supplements in it more than anything and the colour is putting me off. My favourite soups are tomato based ones but have read nothing...

    Coming Back.......

    Hi ! I think I would need more than a carpark swap over from my CDC to succeed, perhaps ring the line and see if more have been added in your area? Good Luck with it! 2 stone is doable!

    Excess Baggage! BiB's Weight Loss Diary !

    So here goes...no more food for a LONG time Started the Cambridge Diet today. Weight Watchers was ok for short term but far too much scope for cheating for a food addict like me. My BMI is 46, which is shocking, although at a GP checkup a few hours earlier he admitted I am in tiptop health...

    OK just had my first CD Shake

    Shakes are not my thing, but I stomached it - strawberry - was a bit like Angel Delight but I could feel my throat closing in on me, all totally psychosomatic but I couldnt manage the last half mouthful :rolleyes: is this bad?? I am sure I will prefer the soups, so did get more of those from...

    Relationship problems (sorry)

    Hi Princess, what a situation :( I can only echo what others have said, you can't change him, you can only change how you react to him and how you feel about the situation. I was in a similar situation 13 years ago when I was few days away from having our baby....6 months later I realised...

    Been to see GP and he poo-pooed VLCDs

    Went to have my BP checked and get weighed, also to mention my rapidly disappearing hair :eek: He is doing a full blood count and thyroid check but says hair loss is very common and should right itself. He really slated VLCDs but I was adamant that if my health is fine then I am going to...

    Before I even start - a couple of questions!

    Hi Kazz the excuse thing is EXACTLY why I want to start now really, any normal night out and I would have cancelled, or done something else NOT involving food - its typical!! Am going to see CDC next Monday as I go away from wed-sunday, so will see what she says, but the higher cal option...

    Before I even start - a couple of questions!

    Food related of course! I am DETERMINED to give CD a good go, have gone into ketosis using Atkins before and as I am already 100% caffeine free and drink at least 2 litres of water a day anyway, so am hoping that THAT part at least won't be too trying....want to kick the eating habit, so the...

    How did you cope with cooking?

    I have a husband and 3 children, and do 90% of the cooking - I dont pick while I eat, so am wondering if I just make the food and then make myself scarce while they eat, this might work? I work but less hours than DH, so feel bad expecting him to come home, and cook when eh bathes and puts the...

    Is there any way to find out how long it took you all?

    oh fab, glad to be of service LOL Thanks for the info Vicky, you are doing AMAZINGLY well and look fantastic :) That's just the sort of time scale I need to hear, especially with the dreaded Christmas Binge Period coming bang in the middle of my time on a VLCD!!!!

    Ok, made GP appt to discuss LT !!

    OMG I am nervous, I go to a large practice and am seeing a GP I have never seen before, but will view this as a good omen :p Appt is not til 30 October as I am away all next week with the kids at my mum's. This will give me some time to think on it too. I am wavering between LT and CD as...

    Is there anywhere I can compare LL V CD?

    Thanks Diva, have had a good read but wanted peope who have tried it's opinions - have to say there probably aren't THAT many that have done both tho, are there!! Thanks :o)

    Is there anywhere I can compare LL V CD?

    Wow Thanks Beverly, I think you more or less covered it!! So nutritionally there isn't much between the two, the big thing seems to be more in the way of counselling on LL and less in the way of flavours. I have vivid and horrible memories of CD in the laste 1980s where I found myself eating...
