hello ladies! sorry I havnt been on past few days or so, my internets just not been working very annoying!! currently in process of switching from bt to talk talk and just so happens my usually fine internet has started to become very very slow impossible to use since I told bt im leaving hmm...

I havnt tried the water flavouring as of yet as if im honest im not struggling with that part, on the days I am its only due to laziness lol peeing all the time is annoying but it makes me feel good and healthy I often average around 4-5 litres as apposed to the minimum 2.25 litres. im on my 5th...

haha kwaix don't worry about it, its what suits you best you never know you might not like exante and return to Cambridge, just remember most consultants have a fair few people on it and think how much money they make too. Hi molly wow jelous of your loss so far you must be sticking to it...

absolutely fab flare, 4lb lovely start as you say especially with the little stray. ive been baaad this week so far :/ not really been on diet at all and my weigh in is Thursday trying to be good today, tomoz n Wednesday hoping to slightly retrieve myself for a 1lb loss atleast aslong as its not...

hope you had a good night flare and was able to stay focused on the diet, weigh in tomorrow so wishing you lots of luck for the result you want! :) how is everyone else? been very quiet on the group this week! x

when is your first weigh in flare? shouldn't be too far away now surely? x

thanks :) that sounds like a good way to distract yourself from the hunger lol I love my ugg boots but there just not suitable for rainy weather :( so I treated myself to some leather boots this week too x

ahhh man I lost 2lb! but gutted really wanted 3lb loss to get to that stone! never mind 2lb is still good steady progress and I know I will of hit that stone loss next week! and be in the 12's yay! first mini goal ticked off im sure. how is everyone else getting on? x

hi tracey welcome to the group :) theres no limit on members in this one ive made it so we don't compete we just support each other as we would only be allowed 6 members if not and none of us were really fussed about sending in percentage scores on weight loss etc just wanted somewhere to chat...

Hi Jolene! your more than welcome to join :) I know how you feel regards people not being supportive, a lot of people as mis-informed and think its faddy and dangerous and that you should take the slow and steady approach with healthy eating but I know all too well personally id never be able to...

oh dear ladies doesn't sound like any of us are having a great week so far! bad weather doesn't help I know it sounds like a silly excuse and I don't know about anyone else but normally bad weather for me= comfort food like casserole etc haha ive tried to have a good week this week as I really...

brilliant! well done you must feel great and very proud! whats exante? ive heard a few people have switched but ive never even heard of it!

lol ah cheese! its odd isn't it as I could quite happily not eat sweets/chocolate etc again but I quite like the thought of cheese/bread/jacket potato lol! carb fest basically. ah well we can eat these in moderation once we have reached target lol! x

youll know from past experience the first 2/3 days are no fun :( stick to it and keep distracted- paint your nails, run a bath, read...whatever you can think off and as soon as those first few days are through with it should ease up and plus you will start loosing weight, yay! x

great, good luck :)

im not sure on that one kwaix! all I know is my consultant said ideally im looking at a rosey pink colour yours is really at the top end isn't it but maybe that's good! Im not sure maybe text your consultant and let us know in case anyone else gets the same reading and is thinking the same...

Hi flare welcome to the group :) well done on the 2 stone lost, its a shame you put some weight back on but these things happen and its great you have made the decision to come back to loose it again makes me feel positive about the diet if people are happy to return, to be under 10stone would...

Hi flare welcome to the group :) well done on the 2 stone lost, its a shame you put some weight back on but these things happen and its great you have made the decision to come back to loose it again makes me feel positive about the diet if people are happy to return, to be under 10stone would...

thanks ladies, how is everyone elses week been? positive I hope. im super stressed at the minute not great when your prone to sensitive skin anyway and to be fair the diet doesn't help as all the nutrients are going to major organs rather than spread out like they normally would. joking...

well done kwaix! I lost 2lb cant complain thought Id of gained :D gonna have a real strict week now as if I loose another 3lb that's my first stone gone! :) and ill of made my first mini goal of being in the 12 stone category! xx

Hi Helen & sherry! :) anyone is welcome to join we have decided to not be a traditional team where we submit weight scores etc we are just a team in the sense we are all here to support each other...moan if we are having a bad day, celebrate and give a thumbs up when we are having good days! I...

thanks, yeh I know if I can stick to it and loose the weight ill be so much more confident and happy and ill be the one who comes out on top. its been so hot today I cut the grass and had all the windows in my house open coz it was sweltering inside! british weather honestly doesn't know what to...

hahaha santa that made me laugh :) I ate some toast with butter :( which was super naughty im having a horrible stressful week its hard im so used to comfort eating and ive had some personal upset this week and its been hard not to just give in but I don't want to, without going to much into my...

well done :)

hungry today :(

I don't think I could do the diet without the soups! its the only thing they offer that actually feels like im eating something substantial! a lot of people say they taste powdery but I don't get that taste personally but then again I add 400ml water rather than the minimum of 225ml so maybe it...

oh fair enough, yeh I certainly don't think id spend any less on food if anything I bet I spent more I just don't like the thought of being heavily overcharged, I understand for most consultants its there way of earning a living but if some can charge quite a bit less I find it a bit annoying...

wow well done mirusska that's only a pound off a whole stone! fab! why do I always get consultants that charge more :( mine charges £7.50 for fibre, £2.00 for soups a shakes and £2.30 for bars and ready made cartons, how does this compare to others? the consultant I had before that charged...

Hi Nicola (hoping ive got that right as it says Nicola in your signature :D ) your more than welcome to join us! :) and thankyou regards my photo I did take some photos when I started this time but resisting to take any more until I get to the 8 week mark :) ive lost 9lb so far my weigh ins are...

I wouldn't be embarrassed Kwaix I can guarantee your consultant had the same problems when she was on Cambridge and nah have some good tips! I'll let you know what mind says on Thursday :)

my auntie has flaxseed on her cereal in a morning too but I wasn't sure what we were allowed etc within our diets, think ill get something tablet wise for now then on Thursday when I have my next weigh in ill purchase some of that fibre, I read somewhere its about a months supply would you agree...

Thanks :) will buy some of the Cambridge fibre then if it works :) it was so painful! Phew don't want that again lol x

well morning ladies, sorry if TMI but I have to share incase anyone has had the same or has any tips! last night I had an awful nights sleep :( I was up 3 or 4 times in the night with horrendous stomache cramps for those of you that have given birth im not even joking it was as bad as...

woop woop well done kwaix must be nice just to have that confirmation :)

hi nickie, its hard not to! I weigh myself atleast twice a day and always at 10.30am as that's my weigh in times on a Thursday so I know that's my most accurate reading. although I cant really talk sometimes its best not to worry what they say...all week mine said I hadn't lost anything then the...

well done laura :) its really great when you think your going to put on then you loose something :) my consultant says to not be surprised if I stay the same or only have a small loss next week as usually that can happen then the following week I may have a decent loss so we will see but ive...

10lb kwaix in your first week is amaaazing! good luck at your weigh in with the consultant :) I know what you mean Hayley I keep wondering how I will feel! I was like a stick as a child and as soon as I got to around 13/14 I guess the start of puberty it just started piling on! I never went to...

im excited to get into the 12 stone category be good to see that again, I found my very first Cambridge card from before I had my son (is will be 3 years old in november) and my start weight was 12 stone something :( quite discouraging in a way that ive put on 2 stone in less than 3 years and...

Hey everyone I lost 3lb! im very pleased cant believe a loss like that after having 2 days not 100%! :) yay! hope everyone else is having a good day so far x

aw mirusska that's a shame as would be much easier for you those ready made ones but hey stick to what you like, I honestly applaud you as it must be so sooo difficult working around food when your hungry!! my weigh in is in a few hours im a bit nervous I really hope ive lost something even If...

Your really not stepping on anyone's toes the more the merrier :) especially as its another person to relate to and go through the journey with :) well done the first few days are hard so your doing great x

Well done Hayley! well on your way for that Christmas target! :) how are we all today ladies? I'm having a good 100% day today so feeling pleased although my weigh in is tomoz morn and I suspect my few hiccups in the week may let me down but we will see :-/ x

Hi nickie, unfortunately we have 6 member already however Id like to know everyones thoughts on this...we are a team but in a way that we support each other as a group rather than posting results in a competition as the teams are suppose to be? as I don't mind doing that if anyone is still up...

hi mandi welcome to the team :) fantastic to hear of someone loosing a great amount and then keeping it off! we have the same weigh in days too but this Thursday is my second weigh in so im just a week more into it than you and I have 3 and a half stone to loose so we are very similar :)...

how did you do yesterday Hayley did you manage to resist temptation? any loss is still a loss even if its a lb, I have a good pic for when people loose a pound of fat its groce ! everyone wants a big loss each week because the more you loose the quicker you get to target but some weeks we will...

Fantastic loss mirusska!!!!!! that's half a stone how fab, well done you :) x

it really is so hard with little ones around ive been to meadowhall doing some Christmas shopping today and got half way there n realised id got my shake out the fridge but not in my bag :( I tried to just fill up on water but started to feel weak and dizzy later in the afternoon so I had to eat...

Hi kwaix yeh sure you can :) how long have you been on Cambridge for so far and how much you looking to loose by xmas? oh guess it depends on the consultant then ive been on Cambridge 3 times with 3 separate consultants and each one said the same no water flavours, mix-a-mousse or bars until...

Hi Laura, I don't like the chewy bars as far as I remember from last time but really enjoyed the peanut ones the only problem I had is they always felt like a snack rather than a meal like the soups but I cant have them yet anyway as only on week 2 :) having children around is hard but atleast...

yeh I don't mind the packet shakes but I find it a faff to use a blender with ice etc as that's the only way I can stand them so I have a chocolate ready made carton for breakfast which I keep chilled there so yummy and are actually made with skimmed milk so there creamier, then for lunch and...

im sure you already know this but the first week is the hardest, there is no easy way around it unfortunately I don't believe there are any really good tips etc its difficult it really is but its also worth it if you can push yourself to stick it out you will start to feel better. it takes most...

Hi mirusska! welcome to the team :) definatly with you there on the xmas dinner! I have seen some peoples diarys where they have made Christmas dinner then sat down with a shake while everyone else ate it I was in awe! I could never do that but aslong as im happy with my weight loss come...

yes here here, ive had my shake this morning and a couple of bottles of water so of to a good start in all honesty I don't feel remotely hungry in the day its at night when im sat watching tv lol so used to snacking even though im not hungry and I don't need it think its psychological really you...

Just thought id share a pic with you guys- I apologise in advance as its not very nice to look at haha. this is back in 2011 when I last did Cambridge from late august 2011 to the start of October I lost 12lbs and can you believe in only 12lbs how much my tummy shrank not long afterwards I gave...

Hi guys lovely to see some new faces :) hopefully we can all have some motivation together. my first weigh in went well I lost 6lb and a total of 6 1/2 inches off my body 2 of which were off my waist :) im fairly happy with that. I have a minimum set for 3lb a week if I can as that will take me...

also I don't get leg cramps but apparently its very common on this diet my consultant said if by walking around it doesn't stop the cramp but I tiny bit of salt on your tongue! lukily ive not had to try this method yet lol! x

Hi mirusska, you should join my team santas secret slimmers...anyone who is hoping to reach there target or a target by Christmas! I have 3 and a half stone to loose by Christmas, its achievable if I stick to it :) my first weigh in is this morning (thursday) so fingers crossed for a good loss...

this is my thinking too, I know the diet is very hard and boring but would I rather do that or stay fat :-/ so much temptation in my house too I have an almost 3 year old little boy and of course he has snacks around the house it wouldn't be fair to deny him treats just because im on a diet so...

of course lol :) you still have a great goal to reach by Christmas and I wish you lots of luck reaching it, this is my third attempt at Cambridge sole source so hoping 3rd time lucky. last time I lasted 3 weeks and lost 12lb so nearly a stone but that was with cheating (bad I know) so I thought...

Hey my name is Lauren im on my first week on SS weigh ins are Thursdays so im 5 days in and was wondering if anyone wanted to join a group with me 'santas little slimmers' if like me, your target is to reach your goal weight by Christmas! hope there are some others out there with this target I...

So here i am again...trying cambridge for the 3rd time in the past 2 years, its hard work :( im so hungry. I know the diet works though which is why i really want to try and stick at it, the exciting prospect is my consultant is confident if i stick to it and dont cheat ill of reached my goal by...

Hi all, so im due to go out the weekend before halloween this is my first night out with friends for about 18 months due to lack of self confidence and also i have a 2 year old little boy, having been on the diet for around 6/7 weeks now i have lost weight and feel a little more confident but i...

hello ladies, sounds like we have all had are good and bad days so far on our journeys! i have a poorly little boy unfortunatly so had no sleep and no energy therfore slipping into eating rubbish its never a big binge just something here and there but it seriously messes up my weight loss past...

Hi sahra! welcome :) im Lauren i did SS for a week and found it really difficult so since then ive been on SS+ so i can have a small meal in an evening...did find it easier until recently when it started making me crave other foods im not allowed! so weigh in tomoz and going back onto SS to...

hey girls sorry not been on since last week just been busy with things! having a bad week yet again, i ended things with my partner recently was difficult hes my sons father too but not a very nice person without going into too much detail. feel crappy as i feel its one excuse after another with...

well...its not really rebellious but shopping cheers me up and i could walk around for hours looking at things and buying of course and not even think about food as im so engrossed in the shopping...but comes at a price as im always skint LOL so in my case i find weekends easier as i am almost...

its all personal taste i couldnt stand the soups after the first week, all the soups to start with i thought had a 'chalky' after taste but after a while you dont so much taste it anymore as you get used to it, banana in my opinion out of the packet shakes is probably the least chalky tasting...

bayboy have you got the water flavourer? mix it in water as usually would but get some ice lolly moulds (can get them in pound shops, supermarkets etc if you havnt got any) will soothe your throat and bit of a sweet treat sort of lol x

Hi there all, just wondering if anyone can reccomend a good company for puppy/dog insurance will be getting a boston terrier puppy at the beginning of december and wanting to get well prepared especially with insurance (we had 2 terriers previously which have both sadly passsed now and i didnt...

Bet I can't use it I have sensitive skin prone to bouts of eczema so have to be careful what I use so not to cause irritation usually anything scented is a no go im assuming it is :( x

Your scales are a bit crazy! Liking the 7lb loss let's hope it's that one haha x

Weigh in was this morn only 1lb loss as I though :( big sigh!! Need to give myself a good talking to I don't eat rubbish but because I'm doing sole source plus with a meal I've let myself wander outside the given allowance of what veg/ meat you can have...been having snack-a-jacks and Melba...

hii, weigh in day tomoz, even tho ive been good i dont feel so positive my scales are only showing a 2lb loss and i wanted 4lb to make it worse alot of the time for some reason my scales show a lb less than my consultants do so maybe its only a measley one pound loss :( :( currently sat here...

im doing ok! seemed to have done well with my water intake this week as previously was struggling but really been forcing myself to do it and already seen a 2lb loss on my scales so think its working! really really wanted to loose 4lb this week 5lb would be great but i think a push for that...

ooooo lovely hopefully she will have some in when i see her tuesday then :)

so...does anyone know where you buy the cambridge magazine from?? :confused: my consultants never mentioned it and ive not seen any laying about in her consultation room so where do i get it. does she have to order them in or can i go to the supermarket and find it in the magazine rack lol i...

hey past few times ive been for my weigh in ive seen a leaflet on my consultants desk advertising that theres a new shake flavour coming out 'cookies & cream' but all it says is coming soon, i keep forgetting to ask her if she knows anymore about it...does anyone know when it will be available...

i can only use my eczema cream as i have had eczema since a baby and have very sensitive skin so i cant use anything scented or fancy :( my consultant told me everyday pretty much start as soon as you start the diet...i havnt everyday tbh lol hopefully ill not have alot though as same as you...

well firstly its only a guide as to how long it takes to get into ketosis if differs from person to person...it may take you weeks..it may take some people days etc. secondly from what advice ive had and what ive read its actually over rated and you dont really need to be in it to loose weight...

good luck for your first week! always the hardest but you will feel so great and proud of yourself if you stick to it. i dont know where this diet coke and zero coke comes from as alot of people say their consultants told them they could have it! dont know why they are ill-advising their own...

i find this hard reading to be honest i am 23 years old and my mother since having me and my brother has never been 'skinny' its only of recent she has been slimmer after loosing several stone using weight watchers. i can honestly say i have never been embarassed of her and cant believe thats...

emmaline loving your pic of bichon frise! my nan has aways had those doggys! x

theres virtually NO recipes for sole source plus meals...im literally eating the same thing every evening lol! im eating quorn its low fat and im used to it being a vegetarian before i had my son, i tried tuna but it doesnt feel like a proper meal because you hardly get any with the quorn as its...

i keep thinking that i just want to notice a difference, again as lady said above im same more to loose, 4 stone ideally tops but 3 stone to my target weight, i lost 9lb in total in my first 2 weeks and havnt noticed a thing :( hopefully will notice some point soon to spur me on....regards to...

i have been craving battered sausage for ages lol was one of my faves :) i know how crappy and dissapointed id feel after though so no point, ive been naughty past week because i got some malted milk biscuits in for my little boy and every so often when feeling hungry but couldnt be bothered to...

everyones CDC seems to charge less than mine!....its £2.20 per packet and £2.50 per tetra! might be only talking pence more but it soon adds up, im afraid i cant say the same i spend more on cambridge as i never used to get much shopping in and go round my mum n dads for food hahaha im only 23...

looks like its Liquorice then haha i have a almost 2 year old little boy and i thought it might be a bit hard for him to say his name but i imagine he will just end up calling it 'wabbit' for a while anyway haha! x

hi all, so im getting a beautiful continental giant rabbit hes only a baby at the moment but will grow to the size of a small dog, he will live in my house as they are indoor pets. hes jet black all over! just cant decide on a name i like liquorice but its not very original...anyone have any...

thanks you too! :) x

ooo thanks, hope so they are yummy (well as yummy as diet shakes go lol) i dont no if everyone charges around the same prices for there cambridge products but there £2.50 a carton from my consultant so when you need 3 a day it gets pricey lol worth it though :) x

lol the other day i had quorn mince with some veg in it, sort of an alternative savoury mince and i put a bit of bisto gravy granules in the pan with hot water, not loads, just enough to slightly thicken it and give it flavour...so yeh ok your not suppose to but i still lost 5lb that week...

the first week is undoubtably the hardest, i hated it. get through this week and all of a sudden things seem more positive and easier belive me ive just gone into my 3rd week and feel more engergetic, more positive and a bit happier. my reasons for doing it are pretty much included in your list...

i HATED my first week but what i can say is do not give up! no point in lying its awful your so hungry and crave everything but...once you get through that first week everything gets so much easier! i was so suprised im only on week 3 and everything seems so much more positive and easier for me...

im not sure if you would be allowed the full 'pack' of stir fry as were only allowed 80g of veg? and as lady above said i dont think ive ever seen one without things we cant have in such as the red and yellow peppers which is soooo annoying im struggling soo much for inspiration looked all over...

well ive only lost 9lb so far only been on it 2 weeks but my friend lost 9 stone in 9 months on the same diet and she is forever complaining of the cold most nights she has to have full pjs on and 2 duvets too! i think its just something you have to get used to as, not to be rude, but the 'fat'...

also depends what stage your on i did sole source for first week didnt like it ended up cheating hence only loosing 4lb and went onto sole source plus so can have a small meal in evening which is so much easier to follow as you have something to look forward to! if your on sole source stage 1...

i started at exactly 14 stone also, i want to loose 3 stone and if i average a loss of 3-4lb a week my consultant says it will be mid november which is exciting. i lost 4lb in first week and 5lb this week (my second week) so well on target :D if your wanted 4 stone id say it will be before the...

only 4lb as i cheated a few times throughout the week found it difficult on sole source so now on sole source plus and its loads easier and i lost 5lb in my second week...now into my 3rd week so hoping for similar loss xx

i heard this alot about argos scales saying diff weights all the time its on the reviews of them on argos website too! i think im going to ask my cdc what brand heres are and buy the same if there not too expensive hopefully this will solve the problem i dont think any 2 scales can be the same...

anything with dancing, i prefer ones like that as opposed to 'and breath and stretch' lol there more fun and get you giggling too everyone likes a good boogie xx

i dont think people should tar all rottweilers with the same brush, at the end of the day dogs are animals we choose to keep them and breed them as 'pets' odd he went for you after all this time being fine and raised well, perhaps he is poorly when my dog was ill she started getting a bit tetchy...

i definatly advise the mattresses that ARNT 100% memory foam i personally found them ridiculously uncomfortably i used to have a full one and as it supposed do it does mould to the shape of your body-which is fine unless your a shuffler like me! i move from my front to back to facing one side to...

im bloody sick of hearing about it lol anyone would think shes the only woman to write soft porn...no offence to 50 shades lovers out there, i love books and reading but have steered clear from this for the pure fact of having it shoved down my throat adverts, posters, posts on my facebook all...

i absolutly cannot shave down below as you would legs n armpits like with water/shaving cream and a razor ouch always ends up in rash and ingrowing hairs! i started using a bikini trimmer at the mo i have a phillips one cant remember what its called but its metal looking with flowers etched on...

ive been sticking to quorn its virtually fat free, tastes good i think anyway lol and as its lighter than meat you feel like your eating a larger meal and getting more x

cant believe people are drinking coke zero :S it doesnt say anywhere on the official cambridge info its ok to drink and my consultant has deffo said its a no, no as its not actually calorie free as they say it is! hmm...i dont like fizzy pop anyway makes me bloated!

hi i dont intend to do any of the above but i was just wondering why? is it incase someone has tampered with it or something just not sure as to what the problem is say you bought lots of one flavour thinking you liked it turns out you dont but your friend loves that flavour and is happy to swap...

im really struggling with the water, not really because its water just drinking in general i wasnt a big drinker before i only drank when eating meals or when i was actually feeling thirsty which is naughty and i really need to up my game with the water buisnuiss :( i hope it doesnt slow my...

thanks everyone!! looks like i better start downing that water lol, im sure as i get used to it will get easier. just soo hard when you was never a big drinker in the first place sometimes makes me feel sick, i particularly dont like room temp water but i find it easier to drink quicker than...

hi all, just a quick question, im on sole source plus i know you should drink atleast 4 pints a day well ive been on it 9 days now and first 4 or 5 days i tried really hard but was difficult as im one of those naughty people that only drinks with a meal or when thirsty so to drink just for the...
