Help! How does slim and save compare to Cambridge?

[Yoyo-no more!]

Hello,

I am looking for a response from someone who has tried both Cambridge and slim and save.

I lost 4 stone last year on Cambridge and felt great! My other half was paid off at Xmas and I went back to bad habits. The weight has piled on and I am too scared to step on the scales. I am struggling for willpower and I know that I will have success with a vlcd.

to be honest I am too embarrassed to go back to the Cambridge consultant as well as not being able to afford it!

is slim and save really just the same? Seems that way and I like the idea of doing it alone!

any advice / comparisons would be appreciated thanks xxxx

(I have been reading mini-mins for years but have only just joined because I wanted to ask!)

Loss wise it's identical. Taste wise a million times better

I've done both, personally I think the Slim and Save packs are far nicer, they cost less and there's more choice. You can add veg too if you like. It's a bit of a no brainer for me. The only difference is there is no consultant but if you are on here regularly that's a big support

I agree. I've done both and Slim and Save is SO much nicer. The support of the counsellor was minimal in my case, so I don't feel as if I'm missing anything, other than the huge bill. Give it a go! Try the starter pack with all the samples and see how much nicer EVERYTHING is!

Ive done both, prefer s&s, the calories are slightly higher than some types of CD plan but the losses will be the same.
And if you would actually prefer to go it alone then s&s is deffo for you! You have to set up your own weekly WI, some people like to go to a chemist or somewhere to make it more official.

Thanks so much! Think I just needed reassurance. My brother is getting married on 29th June but should manage to shift a good load by then. I lost 11lbs the first week on Cambridge and 3or 4lbs every week after that. If losses are similar ill be delighted.

Disappointed with myself for putting weight back on but not going to let that stop me doing it again but keeping it off!

Will be on here everyday just to keep my mind focused.

Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to answer my question. Really appreciate it! xxxx
