    Only from Counsellors??

    Check with Head office to see if there's anyone nearer - 0800 161412 as not everyone's on the website and it takes a short while for new counsellors to be put on the website anyway. Good luck Lyn

    Got a new tetra briks tonight

    Lots of my customers have asked for a vanilla one too! Did another taste test yesterday with 4 customers and one liked it and said they would buy it (she's in ketosis) and one said it reminded her of kids antibiotic medicine (and wouldn't buy it!) and the other two said it was nothing special...

    6 of us tried it yesterday chilled, myself and 2 teenage daughters and customer (Choc Velvet addict now on 1200 plan) and her 2 teenage daughters. Between us, 2 of us like CV and BB, 2 like BB only and 2 like CV only and all of us like the Strawberry shake so a good cross section for testing I...

    OMG this is gross

    I used to get them many years ago, mainly under my left armpit but sometimes around my left boob, shoulder or neck. They were huge and very painful so I know exactly what you're going through. I had them lanced and packed many times (one on xmas day!) and had all sorts of antibiotics...

    SS'ing at BMI 25/26

    Linda I haven't doubted at all anything you have posted, and I am well aware of the new plans and all that entails, what I am saying is that none of this has been incorporated into the new literatature and so us CDCs are having difficulty in enforcing what we have been told by HO and what we...

    SS'ing at BMI 25/26

    Not according to the new Weightcare with Cambridge book! I've already posted this on an other thread but a customer (moving up the plans) pointed out to me a few days ago that apparently she is now allowed to do SS+ starting and finishing at any BMI according to the new yellow book, page 7...

    Taking the diet packs through Customs in USA help???

    It's ok to take them but must be declared (failure to declare can result in $10,000 fine!) Answer= I've had customers take them without problems but in addition I've given them a letter on headed CD paper stating they are to be taken as part of a medically approved diet (with GP's stamped...

    Going up to 790/810

    The COMA/NICE guidlines may very well be what CD HO wish us CDCs to implement and I am very happy to do so (as it states in our Policy & Procedures manual 7.18) and I explain the rules to my customers but you are missing the point SBTG that the literature we supply to our customers does not...

    Think of a flavour...any flavour....

    Personally I like the sound of Linda's (CD Counsellor's) suggestions but recently lots of my customers have asked for a Leek & Potato soup flavour. Water flavouring wise they're asking for Cabernet Sauvingon or Merlot or Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio, lol!!! Lyn

    Deliveries ARRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH sorry nothing to do with the diet

    Hi Kath I went down to my local ANC depot when i qualified as a counsellor and filled in a disclaimer form (and even drew a pretty little picture to indicate where they should leave my delivery if it wasn't my usual delivery driver) and no problems so far! Lyn

    CDC's - Opinion Please

    Just as we CDCs have a code of conduct to adhere to I think customers should have one too lol! Seriously though as I lay the ground rules (in my little hand out sheet) down at my first meeting with my customers then everyone knows where they stand. I let customers know for example that weekly...

    CDC's - Opinion Please

    I always confirm appointments for new customers by email if possible as I am a bit difficult to find and enclose a map as well as instructions how to find me. I always state on that email that payment is by cash or cheque, confirm what the first payment is likely to be and that payment must be...

    DOCTORS SIGNATURE

    I'm a CDC too and like Lynjo had a client about 4-6 weeks ago who needed his doc's signature as his BMI was 50+. His GP told him the same thing, i.e. they (the practise) had been told by some ruling body that under no circumstances were GP's to sign forms for any weight loss programmes or even...
