Well done girlies ye seem to be doing great :) x x

Thanks a million guys! back to uni yesterday so i'm not gonna get a chance to get on this as much, yesterday was another bad day but i went back to phase 1 today! it was hard but feeling motivated again I am def gonna stay on it for longer than 5 days this time :) I'm afraid to weigh myself...

Ya I think I have found it harder since I introduced the fruit too so I think phase 1 tomorrow sounds like a plan... yeah i know it is def fate that i'd no cash! waaaaaa why can't we just click our fingers and be our ideal weight! glad you are getting on well :) tomorrow is another day! x x

Ok guys, it didn't go well! :( Dinner was fine but immediately after the dessert I felt so so guilty for having the cream and strawberries :( I know it is allowed but i am just so used to seeing cream as a bad food that it made me feel so awful! The cravings then kicked in but I couldn't resist...

Cravings are much better today thank god but still feeling a bit weary! Had porridge with berries for breakfast and we've family coming for Sunday roast soon... my mum baked an amazing apple crumble which smells and looks divine! :( I will be having roast beef and loads of veg, and gonna try...

Ya cheese is never something I've craved so i'll have no bother not having it anymore.. Ya I think it is the fact that it is the weekend too, usually an excuse for me anyway to have a nice dinner and dessert or whatever! I've been stuck at home all day too so I'm prob bored which is making me...

That sounds like fun at least you have something to look forward to and motivate you :) I'm starting back at uni on Monday and the first week back after the hols are usually crazy for going out at night, so i will prob avoid it all because i don't feel ready yet to go out and trust myself to...

Today has been a really hard day, prob one of my worst since starting... I was craving biscuits/cake most of the day and was in quite a bad mood with the thoughts that i am not gonna be able to have them for a long long time!! do ye think it might have anything to do with introducing cheese...

No prob we're all in this together :) we won't be feeling too shabby come summer if we keep it up lol :) x

Omg that is actually amazing well done!! it is amazing isn't it how fast it falls off? how are you finding it? have you been craving much? :) x

oh my god that sounds amazing with the cream I def must try that! we have family coming over tomorrow for dinner so i think i will treat myself to strawberries and cream for dessert :D Had an omelette with tomato, a tiny bit of leftover salmon and a bit of cheese for breakfast, it was my first...

Thanks a million! It's actually crazy when I think about it.. When I did the Cambridge shakes last year I lost 10 pounds in my first week and was eating nothing, and it's mad to think I can lose almost as much as that by eating so much! I've been in the 14s or 15s for pretty much the last year...

No not yet but I think I might order it from amazon tonight it seems cheap enough and it will def be worth it! def not ordering it from the same website as last time cos it took so long haha... Omg I find myself soooo cold too, like sometimes shivering! I've always been cold a lot but now I'm...

Dinner is currently cooking... pork chops, roasted butternut squash and leek! i'm trying to vary my diet up a bit or i'll end up with an intolerance to everything haha :) by the way, is olive oil counted as a fat when eaten with a carb meal?? x

Well done getting back on track! :) it'll all be worth it in the end :D x

My menu so far today... Breakfast: porridge made with skimmed milk and strawberries... YUM Late Lunch: ham and cabbage :)

Forgot to say I weighed myself and I'm down another 4 pounds, getting closer and closer to those 13s woohoo! currently 14st 2lbs... think all that walking for hours and hours around London yesterday helped out a bit :) 10 pounds in 10 days I can't complain! x

Best of luck twiggy! the first days are def the hardest and it will get so much easier! i'm on day 11 and it is almost routine to me now, cravings are gone the majority of the time! You can do it keep up updated :) x

Thank you! it's really motivated me to know that if you can stick to the plan anywhere which is amazing! Yummy found sounds great! i'm very boring with mine.. usually chicken and pork i think i need to jazz my menu up a bit or i'll be sick of chicken! oh really you should def do that and see if...

mmmmm 90% dark choc is growing on me I have to say ;) having it 2 days in a row though is not good so i won't be having any tomorrow for sure! :)

Don't beat yourself up Charlotte you are doing great! you still ate much healthier in the last week and a half than you would have if you didn't start the plan at all so you need to remember how well you have done seriously :) x

Home sweet home! despite being on 2 flights today and only getting 2 hours sleep last night i managed to stick 100% to the plan, delighted with myself because I was really worried! I blended a few berries with some skimmed milk when I was leaving around 4am, then when we got to London I had...

ooh that sounds great i def must do that thanks for the tip! I know it is mad I will be spreading the word to anyone I know anyway :) that's really good that you're getting the whole family involved, it is def a lifestyle change and not a diet! Thanks a million it really does feel great, still a...

Ya I'm the same I think rice and porridge are fine for me but i'm going to stay well clear or bread, potato and pasta for a while! i'm back to uni on Monday and that is when I will really test myself.. i always get a sandwich or a wrap but not anymore!!!x

Dinner is currently cooking... i made some sort of homemade chicken kiev - well a plain chicken fillet with some garlic butter in the middle and wrapped in bacon! think i'd give the harcombe recipe book a run for its money lol ;) and i am also having green beans and broccoli! Today has been...

Ya it is so much nicer.. i couldn't eat it at all on phase 1 with just water and no fruit it was so bland! i found it filling and i got a big enough bowl but i suppose i had the fruit in it to fill me too! i made 50g yesterday and only ate half of it so 30 was perfect today! ooh food sounds...

Just had breakfast of 30g of porridge made with skimmed milk and some berries! it was so much nicer than with water and was so creamy! the skimmed milk is a new food and so far so good with it woohoo! heading to London tomorrow I can't wait :) x

ooh sounds yummy i hate wine so i'm lucky i don't want any! that's really good that you are knowing your limits and it hasn't given you cravings :) x

Ya it feels amazing!!! but they could easier be back tomorrow i have only been doing it for one week today so it might be a bit soon to think i'm cured of my addiction haha! dinner was lovely indeed.. i put a bit of homemade garlic butter on the veg and it really was so nice for a change! and I...

Ya i wouldn't chance it if they made you crave yesterday! I haven't had any chocolate I'm too scared to try it in case it sends me off the rails lol !! x

So I started phase 2 today and no cravings at all! I was in tesco and saw all the junk and didn't remotely want it or acknowledge it waheyyy! Still only gonna introduce tiny bits of phase 2 foods bit by bit so I'll know what the cravings may be due to.. So far i know berries are ok for me...

Haha ok I will leave it for tonight just in case thanks for the advice :) natural yogurt all the way lol ;) cravings have gone now thank god!! hope yours are too! Just waiting for my dinner too! I haven't been too hungry today surprisingly, i couldn't finish my lunch but it is prob just due to...

Well you did the right thing and got back on track which is amazing well done :) you could have continued throughout the day but you turned it around so it's all good! Today is my day 6 and I'm kind of scared to go on phase 2?! I've been eating phase 1 foods so far today but I might try some 90%...

That was so interesting and so true! :) I still did a phase 1 day so far today but might have dark choc later i shall see. I have been craving a bit the last few hours, bissuits and cakes and other starchy/sugary foods! For breakfast I had an omelette with chicken and tomato, for lunch a had...

Ya I will def go easy on the fruit and introduce things bit by bit... i weighed in this morning and i've still lost the 6 lbs and nothing more since Sat... a bit disappointed but I need to think that if I had waited the full 5 days I would have been delighted with 6 lbs in 5 days! but to...

Yeah it will be fine I will def stick to it because it would be such a waste to ruin it all and the thought of doing something to make these cravings come back is horrible! I spent ages in tesco today looking at the sugar content of different dark chocolates and the Lindt 90% had by far the...

Hello and welcome to the harcombe diet! today is my last day of phase 1 and i can honestly say it has been the best diet i have ever done and I'm so happy I did it! the first day was hard but it only gets easier and easier and I've had no cravings for anything since the first day and i usually...

I woke up today feeling really queasy! I felt really sick and could not face breakfast but i went to sleep for a while and was fine then thank god :) I had soup for lunch around 2... but feeling better now maybe it was just tiredness! i still have no cravings at all which is sooo great and i...

ooh those recipes look great!!! :D

Yeah i might try a little but I'm a bit weary that it will make me just want to eat more of it... and i will keep it for the weekend maybe or something rather than get into the habbit of having some everyday :) as long as you are feeling better in yourself that is the main thing it is only a...

Awww well done that is brilliant to lose another pound! my last day on phase 1 woohooo x

Thank you i really must by the recipe book actually! I am def gonna make that curry tomorrow or Mon! yeah it might be a bit optimistic to lose 4 stone but as long as I feel good that's the main thing :) A couple of years back I lost a lot of weight and got to just under 11 stone and I have never...

Oh and my food diary for today: Breakfast was a veggie omelette Lunch was veg soup that I made and some chicken Dinner was boiled ham, carrots, parsnips and roasted butternut squash And I will prob have some yogurt later on :)

That was a lovely comment to read thank you for the support :) yeah i know they only want what is best for me because they know how unhappy I am about my weight, but I think when people don't struggle with their own weight they can never understand how stressful and hard it can be to lose it...

Are you doing the Harcombe diet too Roxanne? :) x

You'll be delighted tomorrow knowing that you stuck it out for the 5 days and you'll enjoy that pasta and cheese even more then ;) wow that is an amazing loss especially cos you aren't even overweight at all congrats that is brilliant! I weighed myself this morning and I'm down 6 pounds in 3...

So I weighed myself this morning... and in THREE DAYS I have lost SIX POUNDS!!!! I am actually so happy with it! Breakfast was a veggie omelette!! Not craving anything today at all... but feeling quite emotional I don't know if that is part of the process or I'm just having one of those days...

Hey I've ordered her new one that came out in Jan 2013 it is called 'why do you overeat when you want to be thin?' or something like that. I think her older one which is just called the harcombe diet is pretty much the same and they explain what it is about. I might get the recipe book in a...

Just had a really late lunch as i had breakfast late too.. I have been pushing my meals on as far as possible because it is always during the evening that I want something to eat, so when i have my mail meal late i'm usually full until bedtime! I had the same lunch as yesterday, brown rice with...

Awh well done that is so great in just a week :) I am currently on day 3 but haven't weighed myself yet.. i might have a sneaky look in the morning ;) i have 4 stone to lose so i've a lot of work to do! i was craving so bad on the first day but i've been quite ok yesterday and today, although if...

Ooh how did you make the curry? The only one i know is processed in jar haha ;) book still isn't here so emailed the company and they said it is held up in Wales because of the snow and I live in Ieland! sooo annoying I really wanted to have it for the weekend! :/ Had bacon and eggs again today...

You are doing really well only 2 more days and you'll be on phase 2 :) i'm finding today much easier than yesterday and haven't had any cravings but as you said i think it takes longer than a couple of days to beat this addiction... i've done other diets before and felt so motivated for a couple...

yeah i am not going to exercise until phase 2 but even at that i won't be overdoing it cos i know i'll never stick to some crazy gym plan! my book still never came today :( i'm getting a bit worried now as i ordered it a week ago today... i'll email them tomorrow if it isn't here! sounds yummy i...

Yes sugar is unfortunately my downfall! I wish I was one of those people that just craved savory stuff but oh well! you seem to be doing great :) i can't wait for phase 2, i have no idea about it yet but when the book comes i'm sure it'll all make sense! have you been exercising?x

Hi Charlotte! it was also the dailymail article that spurred me on to do this it was so interesting :) I felt like I was reading about myself, especially with the bingeing! I'm only 20 and I feel like i am wasting my life worrying about my weight and food and i just want to enjoy uni and be...

Just had my dinner... a chicken fillet, cauliflower and butternut squash chips which were actually amazing! just a bit of olive oil and put them in the oven :) feeling much more motivated now.. my start weight was 14'12 so i'm gonna try my very hardest not to weigh myself until Monday when I...

I don't think it is even hunger I just want something sweet.. but feeling much better now I had lovely soup and chicken for lunch and I think I'm having more chicken and lots of leg for dinner :) and i've bought some live natural yoghurt too for tonight if i'm hungry! nope book still hasn't...

Thank you!!! Ok so I ended up only starting today in the end! So far I have had 2 bacon, 1 egg and half a tomato for breakfast! And I have made vegetable soup so I'm going to have that with some chicken for lunch I think... I was really struggling for the last couple of hours, I keep wanting to...

ps. This is the article that had me convinced pretty quickly :) Why DO we overeat when all we want is to be slim? Zoë Harcombe author of new book claiming to end food addiction reveals how she finally won the battle of the bulge | Mail Online

Don't give up jelly tot!! if you eat less it will come off so you should notice it next week! :) x

Hey guys! So my name's Lucie and I am THE queen of diets... weight watchers, unislim, cambridge... I have tried them all!! And they work for a while until I fall back into cycling of bingeing and making myself fatter again! I read an article recently on the Harcombe diet and Zoe's personal...

I'm the same with the bingeing so I am praying this will get rid of those cravings once and for all... It is totally all or nothing with me and when I don't eat extremely healthy I feel like I have undone any good work so I may aswell stuff my face... so this mentality is what I really need to...

Thanks so much I really hope it comes soon now! You have lost so much weight congrats! is that all from this diet??? I also did Cambridge at the end of last summer for 2 weeks and lost a stone... even though I have been eating awfully lately I have surprisingly only put on half a stone since...

Well done guys ye all seem to be doing great! only heard about this diet for the first time today and I have already ordered the book online so I can't wait for it to come... I want to get started before they come though and I think i have found most of the rules online.. For phase one it is...

Thanks so much!! i've given it 100% and more this week so i'm really excited! ideally i'd like to lose 4 stone.. which seems like would take forever but i'm just gonna try and forget about the big number and focus on each half a stone :) what about you? x

Exactly, i have tried so many diets before and ww is something you can stick to for life so it's really great! yeah knowing i have over 4 stone to lose it quite overwhelming but i'm just gonna take each week at a time... only 8 silver sevens and i'll be there haha :) thanks for your lovely...

I'm finding it good to be honest... i'm having cravings but i've just been telling my self to wait a few minutes before i do anything and by then the urge has passed! i always find the first week or so ok though, it's after the novelty has worn off that things get hard for me... BUT hopefully...

Hey Nyssa! I'm currently on my second day of WW and also came from a vlcd like you.. i lost a stone in 2 weeks a month ago and BOOM most of it is back already! Well done for getting back on track today you are doing great :D x

Hey you guys! So my name is Lucie, I'm a 20 year old uni student and my weight has been a massive problem for about 7 years. I am a comfort eater and I use food to reward and punish myself.. well I used to but not anymore as of yesterday!!! I have tried diet and diet and after and failed. I...

yeah it sucks sometimes! but i'm afraid that if I stop I will be like oh one biscuit won't hurt...but then i'll end up eating them all haha! i'm thinking at the moment of maybe working my way up to the 1000 calorie plan and staying on that! but then again I may wake up in the morning full of...

I am heading to costa del sol blodyn! :) So today was a bad day. I feel very close to giving up right now :( As I was saying before I went to a party this evening in my aunts house. She had a huge buffet there but I brought a salad.. I had some skinless chicken, cucumber, a small bit of boiled...

OH MY GOD JUST HAD THE PEANUT CRUNCH BAR AND IT WAS AMAZING!!!! i am sooo full now :D

Thanks ChristyT.. I think even dry lettuce will be a novelty to me at this stage anyway haha :) Just saw that you have lost 38lbs in 7 weeks oh my god wow!! looks like you are well on your way to the 16s for that wedding :D Sooo I had my second week's weigh in today with my CWC and lost 4 lbs...

By the way does anyone know about salad dressings on sole source plus?can you have light mayo? I'll ask my CWC on Weds anyway x

I have found the last 2 days very very tough.. I just wanted to scream at everyone I saw eating, no matter what they were eating. I knew it was too good to be true that I was over the difficult phase haha! but not one bit of food has touched my lips and I am feeling a bit better today but still...

Can't believe that I am on day 11 and feeling stronger than ever! I don't think I have ever stuck to a diet 100% for that long and I'm so proud of myself.. I'm staying with family this week and there is sooo much temptation up here but I have managed to resist! they all got a Chinese the first...

So i have gone to spend a week with some family and might not be able to come on this too much but I will try as much as possible! I had a five hour bus journey to get here and although I found it harder than usual with all the travelling, I managed to stay 100% on sole source and I'm feeling...

Yeah that's a great idea! maybe if you bought yourself a pair of jeans or a dress in your dream size it might motivate you a bit??x

hey there, I just spent ages reading through your journey and i just want to say how amazing you are doing!! I'm only starting my second week but seeing how fantastic people like you have done really encourages when I feel like giving up! Keep it up :D xxx

I'm going to Spain! i'm dreading it at the moment to be honest as my body is no where near ready for a bikini... but hopefully by then it will be as I have six weeks from today! Hope you are getting back into the swing of things after your holiday :) It's really hard to get back to reality! I...

hey people! today is going great so far.. just back from a morning of shopping (and spending money that I don't have!) but sure you only live once! I got a really nice size 12 dress that won't zip up fully on the back yet but I am determined to get into that before my holiday! I had porridge for...

Thanks a mil it makes it all worthwhile! ooh best of luck tomorrow let me know how you do! x

Hi Tummy! Hope today went well for you?? A good thing to do would be to write down all the horrible feelings you have after a binge and then read over them when you feel the urge to do it again.. it might help. Also don't beat yourself up.. you need to remember that you had ten great days which...

Thanks so much :) I know most of it was prob water weight but it is still has motivated me! Just saw your stats there, you are doing so so great! do you find it gets easier as time goes on??x

Hey guys! I was out and about all day today was it was great not to have my mind on food and I stuck to the plan 100%.. I had porridge for breakfast, a chocolate shake for lunch, then more porridge for dinner and I'm having a banana shake shortly. I will be on the plan a week tomorrow but I...

Well done so far ciara you are doing great.. 11 lbs wow! I started last Tues so I'm going to weigh myself in this Tues because my CWC is only seeing me every second week! it's def getting easier as the days go past! best of luck at wi tomorrow!x

I am in the very same situation as you! I have told family and one friend (who lives far away and I don't really see) but I am yet to tell any of the friends that I meet up with regularly or anyone in the uni course. Most of my friends don't even know what diets are because they are so tiny, and...

So day 6 was a success, way better than yesterday! I just got some unsupportive comments from a friend who failed on this plan herself. But although it angered me, it also makes me want to prove to everyone that it can be done! I had a banana shake for lunch - def my fave shake at the mo. Then...

yeah the mini goals is a great idea to read over when you are feeling unmotivated! So day 6 and I'm feeling ready to take on the world today.. so far anyway! I had the apple and cinnamon porridge this morning (which I surprisingly have come to really like!) I have literally been home all week...

Yeah that is a really great way of looking at it actually, i'll just try to do ss and if I really need it I'll have the protein and veg. Although I think if I know I'm allowed have it then I might not want it so much anymore haha! I am feeling much more determined again now again :D I'm just...

ugh I really want food right now :( I'm not even craving junk food I just want anything to stop this empty feeling!!!! oh i would kill for a chicken fillet and lettuce right now mmmmm... So far today I have eaten porridge and a strawberry shake, and I am just about to have tomato soup. I am...

Thank you so much Tracey all the support is amazing! Yeah I'm really hoping it gets easier! I would usually eat loads of crap food at the weekend so I am not looking forward to the next 2 days but you're right it will be so worth it! :) well done so far you are doing fantastic! 10 pounds in 2...

awh that is really fantastic so far... 1 stone in that short time wow :) i love coming on here because it is so inspirational when you here how much weight everybody is losing! yeah if you stick to the plan i'm sure you will have lost another stone by then! keep up the great work :) x

thanks for the replies guys! miniS- haha wow two months! haha I think I would be the same about the scales if I was going for that long.. but seeing as it's only for a week I think I will eat normal meals but make the healthier choices. I will have been on ss for 7 weeks by then anyway, so I'm...

Hey StarrLady, I'm on day 5 and it is definitely going to be a test this weekend! my family usually get a chinese or some sort of takeaway on sat nights :( :( and I will be there with my yummy porridge haha! Best of luck for the weekend xxx

Hi Blue :D Yes we should definitely keep in touch! I am 5'8 so I'm on 4 CWP a day too.. it comes to around 550 calories. Oh wow I'm sure you will have lost a lot of weight by then. I am going to Spain in 6 weeks myself but only for a week, and my CWC said that if I stick to the plan until then I...

Hey Fairy, my CWC said to do no exercise at all on ss for the first 2 weeks.. I'm finding that pretty hard because I'm usually quite active! after that, she said to exercise lightly but only things like power walking etc. She said it's because 1) we aren't eating enough carbs to be doing heavy...

Hey LadyGrey congrats on 7.5 this week that is amazing!! I am currently on day 5 and going strong so far.. With regards the bisciuts don't worry about it! Just think about what you were eating before and 3 plain biscuits doesn't seem too bad anymore! Have a great day xx

Hey guys! I have been lingering around here and commenting randomly for the last few days and I think it is time now to start a diary of my own! So my names Lucie, I'm a 20 year old uni student and I've struggled with my weight for seven years. Up until my teenage years I had never even...

Hey people! Ok so I am going on holidays in 6 and half weeks for a week.. I am hoping to stay on sole source until then and then go back on it after my holidays. I'm not planning to stuff my face over there, but I will be eating out (prob with dessert) and drinking and I also don't want to be...

Hi Blue Moon, my consultant said not to use the flavourings for the first 2 weeks so maybe that is what is hindering your weight loss?? but then I am on sole source so maybe you are allowed them on 800.. I'm on day 4 too but too scared to weigh myself in case I'm disappointed! Best of luck today...

omg thank god it is not just me!! I'm on day 4 today and have been buzzing and tired at the same time!! I hardly slept the night before last so was hoping that last night would be ok cos I was wrecked, but I couldn't go to sleep for hours and was wide awake at 6am.. hoping this is just my body...

ps. Best of luck today ! :)

Oh we are almost the very same! i weighed in at 15.1 and am aiming for 10 and half stone too! so just over 4 and a half stone.. we can do this!!! i'm heading to spain for a week in 7 weeks and my CDC said if i stick to the plan i should be down 2 stone by then! we'll be skinny minnies in no time...

well done on getting through your first day! :D I've 2 days down and am very hungry but i'm sure i'll get used to it.. have you much weight to lose?? xx

Hi enough I am also just finished day 2 myself... hard to imagine that there is a whole 12 weeks to go but I suppose we didn't put on the weight over night so we can't expect it to disappear over night! I'm not finding it too hard but I've had a constant head ache but it says in the manual that...

Awh well done so far rach you have shown me how possible it all is :D i started yesterday and it has been going great overall despite a constant headache even with 3L of water... but I am always super motivated for the first week or so anyway until the novelty wears off ! Best of luck this...

Well done that is so amazing!! i started Cambridge yesterday... 2 days down and it's not so bad but I've heard day's 3-5 are the worst! best of luck for week 2 xx

I just finished my second day on sole source. Found the first day difficult but today has been much better so hopefully it will be the same for you! My consultant suggested writing down my goals and to read over them when I'm feeling unmotivated so that might be something you could try :) Best...
