    I'm having a little cambridge break before Amsterdam as I've read it is very dangerous to drink in ketosis. Don't want to be ill on the weekend so I'm going to do 3 day heart foundation diet this week before the weekend and hope I don't put too much weight back on. Will keep you posted about...

    Hello..... Frau Frau? are you there ? We used to chat a lot on cambridge before.... However, I fell totally off the wagon and collapsed. Have started again though and am looking for moral support! Pretty much at the same weight as when I finished last time.... Been good for 2 weeks, have a meal...

    I'm back up too! God I struggle with not eating! I've done cambridge for nearly 2 weeks now without a cheat, though tonight might be the first night! Xmas is also my long term goal, but I have trips to Amsterdam and Prague between so am trying to be good!

    I have totally fallen off the wagon. Gave up completely the week before and the week of half term. Feel really rubbish about it too. So I am easing my way into it again tomorrow, have a meal out on Saturrday and then I am back on the straight and narrow. How are you doing? Iwill be weighing to...

    Rubbish week - am failing miserably! Might do some healthy eating for a day or two and get myself motivated again. I had lost a total of 24lbs but I imagine I'm putting that back on as we speak. Am going to healthy eat until after the hen as I have lots of stuff going on over the next week...

    Hey Frau Frau, I'm sure you will reach your -3lbs. I weighed today and have lost the extra 2lbs I had put on so have 4 days to lose some more! As long as I lose something every week and don't go up on official weigh in days (Monday morning) then I am happy. I am back in work tomorrow which...

    Come on ladies - we are doing well. I had a weekend off last weekend and put on a minimum of 2lbs which isn't great! Still - I have to be more focused this week. Official weigh in Monday morning so still have 5 days to lose it and more. I am off work with flu which isn't helping as temptation...

    Hi Joanne, Nice to chat to you too! You'll get the hang of it soon enough. Cambridge is not an easy diet but it does seem to have fantasitc results. I think it does get much easier after 10 days. I have to admit that Fraufrau is having more luck than me at not cheating but am quite happy with...

    Hi Frau Frau, I went to the ball thing last night for Burns Night and had a lovely time. Wore a new black dress and felt quite nice in it. No-one commented that I'd lost any weight though! Still - felt nicer than I have for a while despite the relatively small weight loss so far. Totally...

    Getting frustrated this week - have not cheated but have not yet lost any weight and I'm over half way through the week. I started my period today - how much can this add to the weight on the scales? Any ideas? Also feel huge and bloated and generally disgusting... Boo Hoo! -x- P.S: How are you...

    I can't believe you lost 18lbs in 1 week. That's totally amazing! Puts my 6lbs loss this week to shame! Still - I did cheat twice last week so I musn't complain. Are you doing exercise as well as eating Cambridge SS? I'd love to know your secret. xx

    Hi rumbly-tums .... you know you really shouldn't weigh before your weigh date. I'm also having some issues with going to the toilet. Any ideas? I can't get herbal stuff to aid me in Germany as I don't speak German. Anything else that will not take me out of ketosis? Well done on all your hard...

    Right - Time for honesty. I had a **** night on Monday (as a treat after weigh in) of chips and a keebab! Tuesday did SS all day and ended it with an m&s meal and garlic bread. I know, I know - no good at all! Have stuck to ss yesterday and today and am drinking green tea until it is coming out...

Thanks for the advice on drinks.... my husband has gone to the shop for me now to buy peppermint and green tea to try. Is their a limit on these do you think? Or is it however many I like?

    Hi Kayecl, As far as I'm concerned pain relief should be fine - though I have found drinking more water normally helps my dizziness / headaches. I think it's amazing that people can stick to this diet so rigidly for such a long time... but am really hoping that I find the strength to do the...

    13 lbs?!?!?! That really is amazing! Well done Theresa! Skinnybean2b, I don't really know what I weighed when I was a size 16.... I know I was a 12/14 and 12 St 3 going to uni 9 years ago. That's my ideal long term goal. I am thinking maybe 14 st 7 lbs to 15 st would be a very ambitious target...

    I also need help for moral support! Tell me about it! I am on day 5 and it's Friday which I think will be the most difficult due to the weekend. Really do have loads of weight to lose though so am trying hard to motivate myself. You'll be fine - we can do this together!
