Back again!
I've not started the diet yet, but thought I'd do a proper introduction and say hello to you all.
Some of you will know me from a few years ago when I was a very regular member of the boards doing the Cambridge Diet, when I successfully lost just over 3 stone and become a CD Counsellor (as we were called then - now Consultants) I kept most of my weight off for about 2 years but over the last 18 months it's crept up and up. I've tried everything to lose the weight again, but no success - can't CD again, tried Atkins, calorie-counting, Paul McKenna and very recently bought 2 months of Diet Chef food, most of which is still filling up my cupboards
I then decided to try and get into running and just eat healthily and did quite well on the running for a few weeks, building it up very slowly but then had a cold, felt ill for a week and didn't run & now can't get back into that! So at the moment I'm feeling like the mother of all failures as you can imagine!
I'm no longer a CD Counsellor and gave up the business in the summer and so can now freely diet wherever I like LOL but really with the result that my head's in a total mess & my body is back to the size it was before I CD'd nearly 4 years ago!
I'm always on FB and saw Karen's status yesterday that she was starting the Harcombe Diet and not having heard of it (couldn't believe there was a diet I didn't know about) googled it and found it very interesting. I then popped on here as I was certain I'd find some peeps doing it and here I am.
I'm fairly certain i will give this diet a go, I ordered the book & the recipe book yesterday from Amazon so I can have a good read & get my head around it and will probably start next week - which of course means I'll be stuffing myself stupid all week!
Anyway looking forward to chatting to you all & am reading with great interest how you're all getting on & hope to join the HD losers very soon
