talk to us about it - put it into words: *why* do you think you will fail? what makes you different from the successful CD-ers?
Because it isn't a lack of strength. you've just got through three really, really hard days - and before that, you resolved to take this hard path to weightloss, because you know it works.
but a positive mental attitude is going to help you in the tough times. so let's help you find one.

Spangles is right (as ever!) - you mustn't start thinking you are going to fail. You have to start with a positive mental attitude - you CAN do this. You can achieve anything which you set your mind too. Yes, it will be really tough sometimes but what do you want more? The immedidate gratification of food or long-term health and happiness?
No one on this board has superhuman willpower - in fact probably the opposite (which is why we're on the diet in the first place!). We're all normal people just like you who have unhealthy relationships with food and have failed many, many times before at diets.
In one sense Cambridge is the easiest diet you'll ever do because it takes all the choice away from you and you know in advance what you are going to eat for the next day, week, month....
Give yourself a talking too - think about how much you want to lose the weight and how it will improve your life. Write down a list of all the things you want to do once you have lost the weight (wear a bikini, go horseriding, not worry about aeroplane seats etc etc) and look at it everyday.
Good luck - you CAN do this! xxx
