    I know a few of us have our week 1 weigh in today. To start us off I have lost 9lbs. I am really chuffed. How have you others got on?

    special occasions

    I have decided to have one atkins style meal a week from this week onwards. I did my first week SS+ with skimmed milk. However, because I dont want to feel like a freak at social occasions (we eat at friends and vice versa a lot in France) and also to get my body used to eating, I am going to...

    Emotional.......

    Hi Loula, I have just finished my first week and my weigh in showed 9lb off!!! I am doing SS+, with skimmed milk. The first few days are tough, but after that you will be fine. I run a b and b and have to cook for my guests 4 course meals every night. There were times I could have screamed...

    Barbecue

    why can you have white fish and chicken, but not very lean steak or salmon? Is it about the calories, because I wouldnt have thought that they would have kicked you out of ketosis.

    Barbecue

    so would courgettes, green peppers, onions and mushrooms be ok?

    Barbecue

    Hi, I have some friends coming round for a bbq next Friday (the day after my first weight in). I am on SS+ and usually have skimmed milk. However, I am thinking that if I dont have my milk for a few days and save it up, could I have a small piece of steak and salmon with some salad and a...

    Courgette binge!!

    I have a full vegetable garden with loads of lovely veg, courgettes, mangetout, tomatoes etc coming through and it is hell not being able to touch any of them. Was hoping that I could have a small meal at the weekend of chicken and mangetout and courgettes. How can you binge out on veg, I would...

    My daily menus - want to share with me - virtually of course

    think i need to start a daily thread to post my b and b menus on so that everyone can drool with me (and abstain) as I cook and serve all this delicious food. Hopefully, knowing you are all drooling and also abstaining may help (if that makes sense). Tonights menu is Homemade cream of...

    Here goes, this is VERY honest, but needs to be said

    Thank you so much for all your words of encouragement, I was so scared to post this, but am so glad I did. Just an update, not touched a drop and stuck to it 100%. Not even thought about the wine, apart from last night when my Dad said to me, oh it is 6 o'clock time for a glass of wine, do you...

    I cant get away from food - help!!!!

    I have chose the milk option too, which I have been having as a lovely cup of milky coffee about 8pm. However, not every day, is it imperative that you drink the milk?

    feel bad

    Alcohol is a big demon for me, but I decided that in order to do this I had to quite completely for as long as it takes. Once I had made that decision (I went to my doc for help, because mine was far more than a few g and t's on a saturday night) I have found it really easy. I have just done my...

    Am in ketosis but......

    Checked with the little pink stick and it was dark pink this morning, is this dangerous? ie should the level of ketosis be this high, I thought that CD only allowed mild ketosis. Also, I feel really crock, I was expecting a rush of energy, but it is 10am here and I havent even got out of bed...

    Anyone else forget their dieting and nearly eat!?

    Only on day 4, but the temptation to pick whilst I am cooking is terrible. I have to keep reminding myself. I can't believe how much I must have put into my mouth subconsciously before this diet, no wonder I am the size I am!!!

    Day three-advice and help needed

    Just wish I could get away from food, had to cook duck a l'orange, roast spuds, veg and lemon meringue pie for my guests tonight. I think I hit ketosis today cos dont feel hungry but the craving for the tastes I could see and smell was absolutely terrible!! I have a full summer of this ahhhhhhh!!!

    Day one finished, boy was it hard!

    I made it through day one, however, it was bloody tough. Had 5 people to cook for dinner at the b and b, served a basil, tomato, avocado and feta starter, made a beef bourgignon, parmesan mash, cauliflower, broccoli, leeks and cheese sauce for main, and summer fruit pudding for dessert. Everyone...

    Smoothie maker vs stick blender

    Hi, I am starting on CD next week and have heard that it is a very good idea to invest in a smoothie maker. However, I already have a stick blender and was wondering if this would give the same results. Don't want to go out and buy something new if what I have already is just as good. Help anyone?

    Any celebs?

    Just interested to know if there are any celebrities or famous people who have lost their weight using CD?

    I never realised.....

    How much I pick at food. I am getting myself together to start CD in June after my holidays. I run a b and b and have to cook breakfast and dinner for my guests. Over the weekend, I have been trying to just eat three healthy meals a day. However, I never realised how much I pick at food, before...

    What about the rest of the family!!

    think I will do some batch cooking and freeze it for my dh for the first week or so. It will be quite weird though as our evening meal, in the garden is the highlight of the day, starting with a G and T, then eating slowly whilst we chat about the world and everything over a nice bottle of red...

    Alchohol

    Anyone struggle giving up the pop? Red wine is my biggest weakness and always seems to scupper me on any diet plan that I try. Anyone got any ideas on how to give it up successfully and hopefully easily.

    What about the rest of the family!!

    How can you cook without tasting it!!! I have to taste as I need to know if its good or not.

    What about the rest of the family!!

    Sounds like a bloody good idea to me - you are all welcome, the more the merrier, we could have a big party and get drunk on CD shakes!!

    What about the rest of the family!!

    I am going to start CD after I come back from my holidays in June and have found a counsellor etc. However, I am a little concerned about feeding my DH and daughter. I am sure if I lived on my own I would be fine, because I would just ensure that I had no food other than CD stuff in the...
