Well done thats fab! I lost 13lb my first week according to my scales. My CDC scales showed a 10lb loss. She said that the true weight is always first thing in the morning after a wee! So thats what I always do as her scales always show +3 or 4lb to mine! :D Well done chick!

Thanks guys! According to the UCW website it says it lasts for 30 days :rolleyes: although I cant see how it possibly could - I know it is not a miracle thing but as long as it lasts untill I get home after the reunion I dont care! It says you should drink loads of water afterwards which I...

Hi CDG RING HER! At the end of the day she is running a 'business' of sorts and surely more clients means more money/reputation for her? I am sure CDC's have to make money/have targets etc (I may be worong?:confused:) Anyway I know how you feel when I had to go back to mine I felt abit...

:DWOW !! Well done you! Did you do anything extra special to lose that much? Excersize etc? Are you doing Sole Source? SO impressed HOPE I am like you in 4 weeks time! Lost 13lb last week so hoping for a little loss this week!

Hi Guys I am not someone that is always excersizing but I am on SS and I have been doing Aqua Aerobics & going for long walks (4-6 Miles) & have been fine. I think when they advise you not to excersize they mean dont start running like 12 miles a day or really strenyoues (sp?!) excersize...

Morning Guys, Glad you are doing so well Jules! I feel so bad for caving and could really kick myself because I didn’t need to do it!!!:mad:, but I got back on track yesterday and went for a 4 mile walk all around Oxford so that was good, having a Banana shake as we speak (Yummy!) so feeling...

Hope you dont mind me posting on your thread Elaine! But I also have a Mirena and have been wondering the same question. I havent had a period since April and before that not often at all (as with the Mirena I believe you dont get them very often) however I have been on CD SS since Friday 29th...

Sounds like a great plan to me!! I ALWAYS have to have plans, my boyfriend laughs at me all the time as I am like "ok I think we should make a plan" and then this is normally followed by a list - as I just LOVE lists!!!:coffee: I think its best to have a plan and you can stick to it and at...

:oOh god please excuse all my spelling mistakes! Wasnt looking at the keyboard obviously! x

Ooooh havent tried the Choc shakes yet so maybe I will! Dont really like choc drinks (shame I cant say the same for normal chocolate!!:() & the Choc Orange one sounds nice too so I will ask my CDC if she has any on Thurs. WOW! Thats brilliant that your boss rang you and offered you that job...

Hi Wannabeslim, I am fairly new to the boards and just wanted to come in and say Hi and give you some encouragement!! I keep seeing your posts and your profile pic and think to myself "wow I cant wait to I look like that!" Obviously I dont know which one is you but both girls have such pretty...

;)Hi Jules, Not long got in from Aqua Aerobics and had my soup - I was starving when I got in! Oh well thats a few calories burnt then!! Anyway I work for a Resort on Santiago in the Cape Verde Islands, (but in UK office!) it is still mostly under construction. Not been there long and its a...

Hi ThinkThinJack and welcome! I am also on week 1 and finding it great! I just wish the time would go as quick to weigh in as the weight drops off! Good luck & I look forward to hearing all about your weight losses! :D

:)oooh I really want to taste this! I am on week 1 still so maybe once I have completed week 2? I shall ask my CDC on Thursday about it I think! Thanks

Hey, Oh that’s good then that we weigh in on the same day as each other! I am also going to weigh myself on Thursday Mornings when I get up and record it in my diary, I know its not gonna be the same as when I weigh in at my CDC house but I am too impatient to wait! Ha ha! (I was actually...

Hi Jules! :welcome: Yeah we can def be Twins! We started same day too so we will have the same weigh in days presumably?! And when it becomes my turn to be 30 & a Mum I can ask for some tips!! :p Hows your first week going?

:p;) I thought that if I had a Twin (or Triplets/Quads?! Whatever!!) Eg, someone who is same height & weight as me, or there abouts, then we could spur each other on with our weight losses? Or we could make a Twins Board and pair up (triple up etc) with those of similar details/goals as us?!:)...

Lamaris, its difficult isnt it as next wknd (well next thurs nt after weigh in!) we are off to Vanfest and its 3 nts of camping, eating bbq (which I LOVE) and drinking...... Gonna have to really phsyce(sp?) myself up of plan to fail?! :cry: 2 shots of vodka would get me fairly pissed though...

Hi All Well I am on day 5 and all going well - feel so much less bloated and have loads of energy etc, got aches in my back but thinks thats cause I am overweight anyhow! I have hidden my scales at home (well not hidden cause I know where they are!) I have put them somewhere I know will be...

:DThanks for all your replies, its great to know there are a load of us in this together! Well I stuck to it 100% over the weekend - even when my boyfriend sat eating a kebab and drinking wine in front of me - I have told hom to not change his eating pattern as I need to get used to seeing him...

Thanks for your reply. My poor boyfriend thinks its cause of him - I left him in the pub! Anyway - I am doing this properly so onwards and downwards!!! Ha ha!!:p

Thanks Guys! Well as you can see I am home already,:sigh: I found it so hard, the friends we were out with are normally light drinkers but tonight they were on a mission. Shots, wine, champagne, beer, cider - you name it they were drinking it. My feet were hurting, I was hot and I felt so...

:sigh: I so dont want this to cause me a problem! I am on day 1 of my 2nd attempt at SS and we are about to leave for a nt out down the pu watching a band....how do you cope when you get to the pub and everyone is drinking booze? I feel I am fairly psyched up to drink pints of water but how...

Hey Guys - thanks so much for your warm welcomes. Been back and my consellor was really nice! Cant wait to start and I am gonna aim for 1 stone off by my camping trip! I will join one of the groups cause I weigh in on a Thursday. Yippppeee this time in 17 weeks it will be xmas day and I...

Hey Sandra!:D I am new here as well - just a thought are you drinking plenty of water?? I find the more water I drink the better. It also flushes out any bad toxins in your body and aids weight loss..... Fingers crossed for this Wed and try not to weigh yourself anymore!! OH, and DONT EAT...

:D Hi Guys Hope you dont mind me joining you all! I have decided after doing 10 days of Cambridge Diet that I am much more suited to SW (mainly cause you can eat!) so I am going to join a class on Thursday - I used to go to one on a Monday which I found hard as my weekends seemt o be where I...

A Ha!! Lightbulb moment! I think the lack of calories has addled my brain! OK! Off to the CD normal bit! Thanks for that folks and good luck being saintly100%ers!! xxx

:)Thats cool - but I saw the Cambridge Diet title on the previous page then under that it said CD 100%ers then under that it said Returners - so as I havent done this before I presumed I was a 100%er??!! Confused.com Can you click on the Cambridge Diet thingy then?! Techno Phobe Moi?!

:mad::cry:I guess this is aimed at me then?! Well I am very sorry as I didnt see the 'Sticky' at the top of the page - in fact I find the top of the page quit confusing - I mean what is a 'Sticky' anyway? Perhaps the mods (again, what are mods?!) can explain who can and cant come in here...

:eek::D Wow well done Air Girl! You are an inspiration!! **Tells herself off - Come on Ellen you can do this! - **;)
