CD is a very low calorie diet (about 400 per DAY) it consists of just 3 'shakes' or soups a day if you are doing the strictest version. I managed it for 2 weeks, (lost 14lb and 2lb), but to be honest, it was absolute hell. I was so moody and light headed I just couldnt continue with it. I take my hat off to anyone who can continue with CD for any length of time.
Its a relief to be back on slimming world. Not going to weigh till I go to class next week, just in case I have a bit of water retention.
