[Kira]

Awh! Angel, sooo thrilled for you!! You have done amazingly well! I love hearing about everyone's successes! In the meantime I shall just have to keep trying! You have done so well and I'm sure that in the next 16 weeks you'll lose another 2 and half stone by then.

Thanks everyone.

I'm quite enjoying Step 2 but will step back down to SS at the weekend although I may occasionally have the odd step 2 day along the way just to make it easier socially.
As strange as it seems I am feeling hungrier on step 2 but I think its because I am eating again my mind is wanting other foods. I have been 100% though and I remain very focused its just interesting to see and feel the changes in both my body and mind when on step 2 compared to SS.

I had a mini health check at work yesterday and the results were fab.................

Blood pressure 100 / 60
Cholesterol 2.9 ( fab )
Random blood glucose 5.1

The bupa nurse said my results were some of the best she had seen that day. It was a great feeling as it was fab to tell everyone just how healthy I am whilst on the diet and shut up all of the people who tell me how unhealthy the plan is :giggle:Especially as my results were on of the best out of around 50 people.

Hope everyone is doing well, Just a few days for my next weigh in and as excited as always x x

Morning all

Just had week 14 weigh in with my CDC and am truly thrilled with another 5lb off ! Total to date is 57lb with another 24lb to go before my wedding in 99 days time ( not that I am counting lol )

I have had a mixed week off SS and step 2 due to being away in a hotel for a work course. I was as good as always and stuck to foods which are allowed and kept my 3 ltr water intake so am very very happy.

My weigh in is my last official one for 4 weeks due to consultant being away and my work schedule so I wont see her until June 30th, I would love to get in the 11 st range but will be just as happy to get to 12.3 which is only a stone from my initial target.
I am still loving plan and loving even more so the amazing results which come week after week.

Keep up the good work everyone,

There is nothing easy about Cambridge but I'm sure we all know if we stick to plan the results make it all worth while x x

Absolutely AMAZING!!! You are soooooo close to goal you must be so proud of your achievement... reading this post has been so inspiring to me right now x

Evening all

Week 15 weigh in and a total loss to date of 60lb ! I could not be happier. Last night was my pre hen party and a chance to show off my fab ever changing figure much to the suprise of some of my friends as not all of them knew about my loss.

I had on a pair of size 14 capri trousers which is just amazing as a few weeks ago I was in a 24 on the bottom ! My top is still slightly larger at a size 18 but I feel great and am bang on track for getting another 21lb off before my wedding in 13 weeks time.

I love love love how Cambridge has changed my life so far and just take each day as it comes with a mixture of SS and SS+ days depending how I feel.

Bit proud of my loss so have attached my latest photo............



Complete with the one at the start of my journey...........



It is AMAZING the difference 15 short weeks can make.

This week was my 1st week without my consulatant who I wont see until 30 June and I want so much to have a great loss for her return, My last weigh in with her was 12st 13 and If I could get to the 11 range I would be thrilled but If I dont I know it wont take long, Aim for the moon and If I reach the stars that will be good enough for me.

Keep up the good work everyone x x x

Angel - 60lbs is amazing in 15 weeks and you look so utterly different! We are almost the same weight and I am also more or less a size 14 bottom and 18 top! And you started a month after me! You will definitely get to goal by your wedding - and you will look fantastic!

U look so stunning!! Well done x

Thanks everyone.

My dress fitting for the wedding is booked for 26 July so another 44 days to lose as much as possible and tone up. Im hiring a vibro plate for 12 weeks from Friday. Ive never used one but am struggling to get to the Gym as much as I would like.
As the wedding gets closer I am more and more busy so the Vibro machine at home should be a breeze ( unlike the exercise bike I never use lol )

Ive finally declared to my " real " face book as the loss is soooooooooooooooo noticeable now and no one has been as negative as I thought they would be I guess because Ive been doing it a few months no and Im fit n healthy they cant really criticism.

Need to do some serious shopping for my honeymoon as I had been buying 18's but now need 14's not that I am complaining. For the 1st time in my life I am convinced I will EVENTUALLY get into a size 10 on the bottom.

Sorry to ramble just feeling especially good this week, Thanks for all responses and private msgs. Keep up the good work everyone and thanks again for the support x

Morning all

Week 16 weigh in ( unofficial as my consultant is still away ) another 3lb loss woop woop.

Barbara my consultant challenged me to get into the 11's by the time she comes back........... 2 weeks today. I currently weigh 12.7 so I MAY JUST POSSIBLY do it.
I am still loving plan and despite drinking way to much last weekend on my pre hen party I did not cheat with food. I knew I HAD to drink as It was my party but I stuck with Gin and slim all night long despite friends buying me bottles of moet etc I remained true to my word and only had the G&T. Straight back on plan on the Sunday morning and another 3lb loss this week which is fab.

40 days until me wedding dress fitting and 12 weeks tomorrow until my wedding.
Getting to 11.3 was my initial goal which would be a loss of 6 STONE in 6 months but I am now hoping to get to 10.10 which would be 6.5 stone and would make me feel a bit better about eating real food on our honeymoon. I have no intention of going wild but will enjoy it as its such a special occasion.

I am so looking forward to everything much more than I would have been had I not have done Cambridge.

Some of you may know I had a wedding dress which I thought I loved but had to sell it a couple of moths ago as it was now HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE, I have photos of me in it which I will post after the wedding with the ones of me in my new dress and the difference makes me so proud.

I just LOVE LOVE LOVE Cambridge and the new lease of life it has given me.

Keep up the good work everyone, The weather must change soon and we will all look fab in our slimmer nicer summer clothing x x x

Angel - every time I see our posts you have had yet another amazing weight loss! It seems like only yesterday that we were discussing your first dress and I can imagine how big that will look now. We are both the same height and weight with similar goals (I would like to be 11 stones by the end of sept). I think I will cry when I get under 12 stones - I don't think I'll get there for another 3 - 4 weeks but I reckon you could do it sooner! I weigh at night on CDC 's scales - am usually 4-5lbs lighter in the morning without clothes so I think 11stones on her scales is enough for me.
My best friend was away for 2 weeks and when she saw me last night she just stared for ages and said she was shocked as I looked so different from how I did 2 weeks ago. I've only lost 5lbs since I saw her but I think that at this stage it makes a much bigger difference than it did when I was 16+ stones. It's great this diet! Good luck with the next half stone.

Well done on your loss so far, You will certainly be under 12 by Sept. I agree if I dont see people for a couple of weeks they always comment even though the losses are smaller at this stage it all makes a difference.

Keep up the good work, Its a fab feeling and I love this forum for the support and encouragement so thank you x x x

 

[LeaE]

Morning all,

My next weigh in is fast approaching ( Sat am ).
Its my 1st one with consultant for 4 weeks as she has been away and the bliddy scales wont budge !

Ive been weighed the past couple of weeks as a unofficial weigh in a Boots the Chemist but couldn't resist getting on scales at home and am a bit gutted. 100% as always so I know they will move I just home its prior to Sat as she set me a challenge.
Im drinking green tea instead of peppermint as Ive heard it speeds up the metabolism ( god knows if it works lol )

I have a wedding to go to on Sat and will see friends Ive not seen since New years Eve so am very excited about that.

Just wanted to ramble so no need to respond. Hope everyone is doing ok x x

 

[tizzy51]

Hopefully your friends' jaws will drop in sheer astonishment! If they don't say anything, give them a little something like "I've given up bread and pasta" so that they know it is safe to comment. When I saw some people a couple of weeks ago who hadn't seen me since before CD, they said not a word. I was a bit miffed, til someone pulled me aside and asked if I was ok. The loss was so quick and so much that they were worried I was ill!!!

 

[Daisy65]

Angel, weight goes up and down throughout the day and the week. Sometimes my weight goes up two pounds on Monday and is gone by my weigh in on Wednesday. Everyone will notice at the wedding - I am sure you'll get plenty of positive comments - enjoy it!
