I think when you have children and have to make their meals or Even other halfs meals etc it would be so hard to resist a cheeky bite... But love the idea of drinking water whilst you cook to help resist it. I've started drinking lots of water and have cut out all carbs in preparation for it. x x x

i have five children there 13,11,9,8,1 and to be honest i feel okay cooking for them. iv even ordered in takeaways recently for them and my partner and felt fine.
i always cook home cooked meals and iv managed 6 weeks without cheating. week 1 & 2 was easy for me. i personally found week 4 & 5 hard i was starving.
but i always think about walking down the isle in my dress and seeing all those people who last saw me "big" people are starting to comment now saying iv lost weight it feels amazing, iv got past two of my childrens birthdays without cheating and i had some amazing cakes made for the partys i ignored the buffets, its my 30th birthday next month i will stay on the diet 100000% im def in the zone. get in the zone hun you will walk threw it xx

Well done so far Rachel!! That's brilliant news about things fitting nicer And getting in your size 20 jeans! Before you know it they will be loose and you will be in size 18! Wahoooo! Keep going your doing so well. Lots of people say day 3 & 4 are the hardest. YOU CAN DO THIS! Ignore the yummy smells of food and just keep imagining a slimmer you. Don't give in, your first weigh in will be here before you know it! Just imagine the moment your advisor tells you how much you've lost!! That amazing feeling and imagine week after week the weight dropping off you. Keep your size 22 jeans as a reminder and motivation to keep going x x x

thanks rachel that is just what i needed to here. today has been fab had porrige for lunch n struggles to finish it as was so full felt amazin all day. then about half 4 i just hit a wall i wasnt hungry jus wanted to eat iv reli felt like breaking down i no that sounds dramatic but i have. i dont know if its cos this flavour of soup was horrible and i felt fustrated and my daughter has been really naughty today i just feel like giving in but im gonna ignor it and push on i have to. i keep tryin to talk me self round to quitin wich is stupid. reli messes with ur head this does but im neary past the first hard week so givin in now would be stupid. i just keep thinking how good i felt putting those jeans on this morn.
thanks so much for what u said it has really helped

We will help each other through this And people say in reviews it does mess with your mind.. It's emotional. Week 2 and onwards will be much better dont let yourself give in it will be a waste of your time and money. Keep going in you tube and searching Cambridge diet success stories. Keep looking at Riverisland on all the pretty dresses you WILL be fitting into in a matter in months. Keep drinking plenty of water! Keep yourself busy get some books and magazines maybe even some puzzles so your keeping your hands busy?
Are you taking any fibre tablets? I've read lots of people get constipated and heard some horror stories lol! I've read Physilis husks (however it's spelt) are mean to be good? x x

Glad your feeling better now. You just got to stay strong. If people eating food around you makes it hard go into a different room maybe? You need lots of support around you so hopefully they won't eat tempting things too much infront of you. And yeah get a book or two to read. I eat when I'm bored which is awful especially when at home alone, it's not good. Roll on day four tomorrow! And yeah I start the Monday 25th I can't wait to start it. Will be strange not to eat a normal meal but I've bought two tops one size smaller than me and they are hung on my bedroom door so every morning I see what I want to get into first and ill keep buying smaller ones Im from East Anglia x x
