Hi there!

[mikeyB]

Hi all, thought I'd stick my head in and introduce myself. Never been on a diet before in my life, but my doctor tells me that at 21st 4lb with high blood pressure and a BMI almost 40 that I need to lose weight seriously!

So anyway, being an all or nothing kinda person here I amAnn day 6 of SS and planning to stick to it.

To be honest, so far it's been pretty easy. I love the shakes, soups and even to porridge is passable!!

Haven't found myself craving food, haven't been hungry, tired or anything really. Also haven't noticed any weight loss yet but t haven't weighed myself and the CDC isn't coming for my first weigh in for a couple days so I suppose we will see then..

Getting a bit bored with the volume of water, but I'll live!

Also, wow I valve seen people say that this stuff is expensive but it's saving me a fortune! No daily visits to the cash machine and the shops, no meals out, no booze in the pub, if this works it'll make me thinner, healthier and richer lol, win win win!

Sounds like you're going to do great! You're going to have a longer healthier happier life!

For the water i tend to get a range of different waters.. Cheap ones, posh ones, sparlking, still, hot, cold, ice, mint tea, and once you've been on it for a while your cdc should offer you water flavourings.. also, i add far more water to my packs than recommended and so long as i have it while its freshly made, i cant see how that can be anything but helpful. You can also get an app for your phone that records how much you've had through the day or you might like to just have a set routine.. or set challenges for yourself..


All the best.. And keep us all posted on here.. We're routing for you x

Thanks everyone! Quick question.. I am never cold, ever, I usually have windows open even in winter but the past few days I been having heating on and still feeling cold, but I'm not ill. Could this be some effect of the diet?

 

[Naomi Alexis]

Hi, I'm on day 10 of ss lost 9lb in the first week. I've noticed that I've been cold a lot lately over last few days, I've put it down to the diet

Being cold is usually a sign of ketosis! Well done Naomi on your first weeks weight loss.. mines on friday, really hoping for 8lb or more! x

[mikeyB]

The other thing I have noticed the past few days is that I am sleeping much more soundly and when I wake I feel very refreshed! Then when I am awake I feel much more awake than usual, with my mind far more clear and focused. This is quite an experience!

Well done Mikey, that is a really great weight loss, you are doing really well

 

[general]

That is truly tremendous results!!!... stay the course!!

Can anyone advise how long can you use the cambridge shake, etc after the expiry date? Do you have to throw it away the exact day after it is expired?

 

[This time its forever]

Well done! All the best on your journey

 

[mikeyB]

what the hell is going on?

5 days into my second week SS 100% and the wierdest things are happening. I have more energy than I remember having in years! i'm doing loads more, i'm doing it faster and more eficiently, it feels like my brain is running 10 times faster and 10 times more focussed than it has in as long as i can remember.... this is bizarre! Thos evening naps.. (well, more like falling into an exhausted sleep for an hour around 6.30pm) have vanished into the mist. what an experience!

 

[OscarsMum]

Aha you no longer have the 'carb comas' lol!

Keep on going - the results are amazing, I am 50lbs lighter and loving it! My goal is within reach now
