first day on cambridge diet

[belle1961]

met my counsellor yesterday,really like her ..opted for only choc tetra pack...
i did ll very successfully about 7 yrs ago and put some weight back on in last few yrs ....mostly because of my job in confectionary industry...:sigh:
i am worried about being 50 and losing so much i will have excess skin but firstly i need to be healthy....am a t2 diabetic and have 3 st to lose to not be obese.....doc and nurse not supportive but i need to do this.....horrid pics of me at my daughters cabaret eve (where she looked gorgeous after maintaining 6st loos two yrs...and just did london marathon ), sent me into a dark place ....but seen the light and onwards with my weightloss journey!!...looking on here is inspirational..
14 may....16st 9

Hi it's my first day today. Wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Hope it works for you.

 

[belle1961]

hello!! i see you have only a little to lose ...... are you on sole source?

Good luck ladies, just choc tetras? I thought about that.
Pictures are sometimes so shocking, I look good in my mind when I go out, not to bad in the mirror sometimes ( unless I'm naked the yuk!) but in pictures I look like someone's puffed me full of air and I'm about to pop!!!

Yeah I'm on sole source apart from a couple of days a week I'm on sole source plus so I can take a little lunch to work. What is a tetra pack? How was your first day back?

i call the ready made choc shake tetra pack? on day two today...tired but probably because i couldnt sleep for my stomach rumbling!!

 

[bettyb82]

I haven't felt hungry but my tummy has been making some odd noises. Lol.

 

[belle1961]

the constant trips to the loo are difficult...especially when i work in retail and have to wait for someone to relive me...as it were

I'm at work today for the first time since starting. Hoping I don't need the toilet too much as I don't think they'll appreciate it. Have been going a lot more the past 2 days. X

I have had day off today and have so much time on my hands because I am not shopping for food!! Had diabetes clinic this morning and had lost a few llbs already although it's day 3!! Whoop !! She is keen for me to just lose a couple stone then move onto a weight loss club!! Already a feeder , made a lovely casserole And just made a cake !!! Have you struggled or is it easy for you? I drink water whenever I feel hungry ... Are you on soups /shakes ?

I'm on porridge, shakes and soup. I'm just over 5ft8 so I get to have 4 CD products a day. Yeah I've been drinking water more too. Wasn't you tempted by the cake? Well done on already loosing weight. I hope I have too.

Eating is a habit I have had for fifty years !! I didn't eat any cake but enjoyed being busy!! Went to a dinner lady night and passed on the soup ., gave dinner to OH and passed on pud !! Drank water all night and didn't go to after party. !!no one noticed I didn't eat!!mu daughter kept texting me ' don't eat" texts!! She is a cd success story on the website and my inspiration .
