Hi everyone, nice to meet you all!
I started the Cambridge (SS+) diet on the 4/4/13 at 13 stone 2 lbs. As of today I am 12 stone. In total I lost 15 lbs in 4 weeks (and one extra since Thursday). I am so happy about this - but 7 lbs was in the first week, making the last 3 weeks a loss of 2.2, 3.8 and 2 lbs respectively.
Having lost only another 1 lb in 3 days, is it likely that I am ever going to average out at a stone a month again? I should add that I have a chicken/quorn salad for one meal at least 2 days a week because of my schedule, is this likely to affect my weight loss (as the meal is under 200kcal as stipulated in SS+). Am I likely to increase my losses by going down to SS?
*breathe* and one last thing. It's my birthday Sunday! My parents are throwing a birthday tea on Saturday and I was always assuming I'd take the day off. Is it likely I will still lose that week if I do so? strongly considering trying to plough on through with the diet whilst surrounded by others stuffing their faces but I *know* I'll get told off for doing so.
