★~~★ team 28 the 100% cders ★~~★

Thanks hun,

I've just emailed my CDC to ask for some advice- she's brilliant- I haven't told her before as I didn't want to let her down! I also want to come up with some mini-rewards for sticking 100% need some motivation there somewhere!

It's day 3 of my massive mission to improve our living space so more tidying here- OH has two days off then so he can move the wardrobes!!!

Anyway, better shoot got a lady coming in a moment to pick some stuff up that I advertised on freecycle- so much better than taking it to the tip yourself...and ooh so eco-friendly. Good karma for me! Yay xxx
 
Morning Ladys

How is everyone doing today ?

Clare - Hows your weekend been ? Did your cdc come back with some helpful advice for you ?

I had a busy weekend, over helping my mum again. Had so many compliments this weekend about my weightloss, i really am feeling good. Although i have to admit to having a rather large :sign0007: moment of Saturday evening. I dished the family meal up in time for X Factor and it just felt so natural for me to eat with them and before i knew it i had eaten chicken in a bun but although it was bad I'm over it and back on track and that's all that really counts. I just find it baffaling that i would do such a thing when A) i wasnt hungry and B) i had recieved so many compliments :confused: I can only put it down to complacency.

Here's to a good week, i hope everyone else is doing fine, which i'm sure you all are. Hope to speak to you all soon.
 
Hiya!
Had a good weekend, ta, just chilling with OH. I have to agree with the complacency thing- I'm sure that's my problem. My CDC gave me great advice and I'm a bit more focussed, apart from a nibbly day of cheese lol, but I'm not gonna get myself worked up about it, I've lost about 4lbs I reckon, this week.

Don't beat yourself up about the chicken bun either as I find it ends up in a downward spiral which is just not worth it!

Anyway, I really want to jog, so thinking of joining a local club for beginners, however bit concerned about the SSing and how that might affect me..any ideas? xx
 
Morning

Clare - Sorry hun but i don't have a clue re jogging on SS. I'm pleased your CDC was helpful.

With regards to being complacent, i just cant get over that at this weight i feel so much more happier, I'm happy in my own skin already and i still have a lot more to lose but i know i don't want to stop here. I want to get to my xmas goal and then re evaluate my main target.

I had a very nibbly day yesterday, nothing to bad but bad in the respect of kcals/fat. I'v also got a thing for corned beef, it isnt something i have in as a rule but it was on offer when i went shopping so i thought i would get some for the kids, only i have picked at most of it. Oh and cheese, i was a bad cheese muncher yesteday. I'v just checked for ketosis this morning and i'm still not pink :cry: Hopefuly tomorrow :rolleyes:

Its WI day for me today, so fingers crossed i'm showing some kind of loss. I was only a bad on Saturday so i hope it wont effect my results to much - hmmm other than yesterdays munching.

I was on a job hunting mission yesterday, so i made a CV and emailed it over to a few jobs and within minutes i had a phone call from one and i now have an interview for Friday . Its only part time work at a local Feather & Black store but it beats sitting at home all the time. :) Not sure what i'm going to wear though as most my clothes are to big lol, i had better get that sorted at some point today.

Not sure what to do with the kids today, i did want to take them swimming but according to the weather forecast we could get some rain and its an outdoor pool. Cant stand our weather !

Where is the rest of the team ? I miss you all xxx Hope your all okay xxxx
 
Morning Sass!

Yes, the rest of the team seem to be missing-in-action! Come on girlies! How are you all doing?

Sounds like you're just like me- cheese all day yesterday- actually by normal standards it wasn't a massive amount, but it's all extra. I've decided not to shopping for OH's lunch stuff until I pick him up from work- that way I'm far less likely to nibble all the way through the day! Especially as it will be corned beef!

Congrats on your interview Friday- I'm sure it will be just fine, you've done so well and are so much more confident, it will shine through you!

AND good luck on your WI today- I'm sure it will be just fine- we will get to grips with this and WILL get back on track! ARGH!

Let me know how you get on xx
 
1 Weigh in & 3 Milestones !!!

Milestone
1 - Get into the 15stone bracket ( 15st 12lb )
2 - Break into the 30-40 BMI bracket ( obese and not severely obese !!!)
3 - Total weight loss since January is 4 stone !!!

WoW what a Weigh in !!! I popped into boots today for my weekly wi as my cdc is away and i have lost an amazing 4lbs since last weeks WI. I was so worried about weighing in this week but now i'm over the moon.

I cant believe i am now in the 30's BMI bracket, it looks so good on my ticker :D
 
I've posted this on the main forum, but will repeat here- I'm so proud of you hunny, you have done sooooooo well and really stuck with it! I'm inspired!!!! Your ticker says you're almost halfway there! Wooohooo x
 
This is such an amazing feeling. Thanks Clare xxx

I really must go and cook everyone's dinner, even my plus meal but right now i cant stop looking at my ticker and my signature over all.

I was just chatting with my little sis on facebook who has been interested in CD for a little while but like me before January this year she is kind of happy with herself or at least if she is anything like me that's what she thinks.

Anyway she is thinking of starting cd and has asked about my wi results today and bless her she said "OMG !! your only 3lbs away from being the same weight as me" but now she is worried she wont be able to do CD. I will give her all the support she will need and will be there for her 100% but i just know that if she decides not to do it i will feel guilty when it comes to telling her my wi results.
 
Evening!

Ooh Sass, good that your sister might be doing CD- as hard as it is at times, I still think it's the best diet in the world!

Had a bit of a mixed day today- went for a jog, starting the new plan that someone linked in my jogging thread and it was brilliant- didn't do it all but did what I could manage and really enjoyed it :D
On the downside I got my TOTM and have felt terrible! I have the worst back ache (as ever) but have been feeling sick too, which is a new feeling for me. I took a couple painkillers about 11ish and went for a lie-down. I woke at 3!

On the plus side, today I HAVE NOT NIBBLED! I'm so chuffed, but annoyed to because there's lots of lovely nibbly things in the fridge going to waste :( Oh well, if that's a price to pay then so be it. Feels good to be back in control :D

The dog's going home tomorrow as my dad gets back from his hol- we're gonna miss the little fella around here, so lots of snuggly cuddles this evening- and hoovering in the morning to rid the dog hair! xx
 
Hi all,

Clare - Congrats on the 100% day your doing so well. And OMG go girl, your so good doing the jogging.So how often do you plan to jog ? I'm not doing much exercise at the moment but i will start aqua aerobics once my local pool re opens.

Ow i bet you will miss your dads dog like crazy, they are really like having another person around but only hairier, which is something i bet you wont miss.

I'm still not in the blasted big 'K' after eating on Saturday, it sure is taking its time on purpose :cry:. And although i have picked a little bits they have been non carb foods. Today i plan to stick to SS+ with no additions. I'm driven by the scales, i want/need to get into the 14's ASAP if i want a chance of getting into the 11's come xmas.

I had a busy day yesterday what with getting the 3 boys their school bits, so i did lots of shopping for uniform. I cant believe how fast this holiday has gone by. In fact this whole year has flown by, its so true when people say that doing this diet is only a very short time compared to the rest of your life and how it will soon be done and you will be slim, it never feels like that when your having a bad moment though lol

Today i have nothing planned other than a mad house clean as i haven't really done much of that this week and tomorrow is interview day wooohooo
 
Hellooooooo,

Sass how did the shopping go? Did you get all the uniforms sorted- must be a nightmare- I've seen Tescos full of mums and tired and teasy little ones. Part of me feels sympathetic, the other part of me says sod it, I've had them all year and getting them back soon!

Anyways, I'm missing the dog!!! Oh the little might, it seems so strange here now, but at least the piggies are much happier lol. I even went for my jog this morning even though I didn't have him with me!

Just been for a proper hair-cut and blow dry (been getting trims lately instead to keep cost down) and I feel fab and pampered! Just what the doctor ordered. I'm sure OH won't approve as I had to use his card, but what the heck- he want's me happy doesn't he?!

Hunny, try not to worry about the big k..I'm sure the more you stress the more you are likely to want to nibble (well happens to me anyway). Regardless of ketosis, you'll still be losing weight as you consuming far less calories than what you need to maintain, that's my theory and I'm sticking to it. It'll just happen- your body will know- it might be worth not checking for a few days- I've hidden my sticks away as I was getting hung up on not being 100% in ketosis. I know I must be now, because I'm totally not hungry and friggin freezing!!!

Anyway, you need to let me know how you got on today xx
 
Evening !

I got the job !!!!

On a very bad note tho, diet has been out the window since yesterday and i wont be back on it until sunday :cry:

Blasted OH wants to watch Final Destination in 3D tomorrow at the cinema and i just cant go and not eat, so seems as i'v not beein doing well the past day or so i have decided Sunday i mean business and i will be a good girl from here on in. Hmm how many times have i said that.

Clare - Loving your new pic, is that you today after your new hair cut ? Your looking amazing !!! and of course OH must understand that a woman just needs to look gorgeous which you so do. I've just messaged my hair dresser friend to ask her to come and do me a funky new restyle before i start work wooohooo love saying that lol

Dogs hmmm i'm having some doggie problems at mo :cry: I have the sweetest Bassett hound but she has a poorly leg ( after chasing a cat out the garden ) and now she may need an op which could cost about £2000, but i wont know for sure until Tuesday one her tables have had time to take effect. Ow bless ya for missing your dads dog but well done you for still going for your jog hun

I've also applied for a college course in Florisry, so if i get onto that too i will be so busy over the next two years and boy will it be much better than sitting at home. I cant wait.
 
Please hurry up tomorrow, eating normal food makes me feel ill. Okay so i bet your thinking well stop then you crazy girl but i just didn't want to spend the day wasting shakes to only eat out tonight but seriously eating toast for breakfast has made me tired and bloated :(

I'v just signed up for the 9 week challenge which will focus me although foods given me my determination right now :D
 
Oh Sass!

I'm soooo sorry I haven't posted- been a mixed few days!

Firstly congrats on the job- I knew you could do it! So pleased for you hunny! And thanks for the compliment on my new pic- it's a big improvement, but I've since had my hair cut again so will have to update at some point.

How's your dog? Having pets are so expensive, but then they are our babies and we do whatever we can to make them happy- you would be horrified to know how much I've spent on guinea pigs at the vets!

On Saturday I ate a chinese :( and 4am Saturday morning I woke up feeling very sick (although I wasn't) and yesterday I felt sick and had tummy ache all day. So that serves me right, I guess. But why did I do it? I had walked into town and back that day too, had a great day shopping by myself, but when I got home I did that? Crazy.

Anyway, back on it again. How are you feeling with eating? Making you feel sick? Oh dear- could it be bready things? That had a massive affect on my tummy when I ate lots away. WHen I go into maintenence it will be one thing I will be avoiding!

That course in floristry sounds great- I'd love to do something creative like that, but I just don't have the time (and I don't have children- how poor is that?!).

Anyway, off to make my shake and get some more water...
Have a good day xxx
 
Morning

Well yesterday was meant to be 100% day but i failed GRRRRRRRRR !!!

Anyway I'm determind to get myself back in the zone and back into ketosis so here we go again. I know some people describe this as a rollercoster but this is taking the P**s now. I just want to go on a straight run of being good.

I'm meant to be seeing my cdc tomorrow after 3 weeks but i'm going to cancel as i have enough packs to see me through at least one more week seems as i have messed around quiet abit.

I really am going to have to be strong over the next few days which i really think is going to be hard but i really want to do it.

Food makes me feel real **** tbh, sorry for the french but i hate the way it makes me feel but its not stopping me wanting it :( and its really bothering me right now. Anything that's high in carbs seems to make me feel rubbish.

Clare - sorry to hear about your Chinese. we are strange indeed, i know when i have had a good day i can still crave what's bad. even if i'm not hungry!! Look forward to seeing the new pic of your hair cut.
 
I know how you feel about the food- it makes me feel so poorly, yet I still go back for more! Today's not been too bad- OH's around so I can't get away with nibbling! I feel alot better, but still a little groggy to be honest and I know it's my own fault :S

I think maybe you're (and I) aiming too hard for the straight run 100% and we need to shorten our goals- one day at a time, one shake at a time. I'm gonna try this- not set myself on a mission and not beat myself up if it goes wrong. One shake at a time, one step etc. Just aim 100% getting to the next shake hunny, let's see if that helps. Oooh and where's the 9 week challenge? x
 
I think your idea of shake by shake sound like a good idea to me.

Today I've had 2 shakes & my plus meal, will have my 3rd shake at about 9ish tonight. I'm feeling fine at the moment so i'm hoping i can make it to the next shake without any trouble and then i will be in bed not long after. I've also had almost 3ltrs of water, going to go for another 1ltr though as i need to flush my system of all the badness that's within from the past few days. I'm getting through the day and that's a good sign, this morning i really didn't think i could.

Here is a link to the 9 week challenge Clare http://www.minimins.com/cambridge-diet-100-posts/113046-9-week-challenge-sign-up-your-pledges-2.html

I did also make a post about a possible struggler's support group in the 100% post forum. I'm hoping others who have also been struggling might join so we can get abit of a group support team going.

This thread has become very lonely since most the team don't post here much any more.
 
Oh Sass I think the idea of a stuggler's support group is a great idea- I'm in for sure! I've also signed up to the challenge- I need it as I've nibbled all day because I just feel hungry- even though I'm ketosis. I don't get it- I'm praying that getting back into routine will be my answer.

Anyway finishing the evening with a nice hot banana-choc shake to wash down all the cheese I've nibbled :( Tomorrow is a new day and on my way to losing 2stone by 1st November....
 
Morning

I got through yesterday woop woop I did have extra chicken but not to be worried about to much. I only managed 2 shakes so today i'm determined to have all 3 which should mean less room to pick.

Aim for today is no picking and be SS+ 100%

Clare - It seems to me that your rather lucky in the Ketosis department. It will most likely take me all week to get back in so go you !!! You can do it today without the cheese. I'm sure that when your back to work on Wednesday Clare you will find it so much easier. I think for people like you and I the less time we have on our hands the less we think about the enemy (food !!!).

I braved my scales today and although they are out there doesn't appear to be a big gain from my 3-4 day off plan which is good so now i'm going to work on getting rid of the 15's and cruse into the 14's on the scales.
 
Clare - Just to let you know hun that i asked KD to move my support thread to the main CD forum, so its now on page two of the main CD forum.
