[richman14]

3 years ago lost 8.5 stone 22 weeks sole source I stupidly did not follow maintenance.

I found myself back 9 stone heavier.

I have restarted been doing 13 weeks and lost 5 stone 2 pounds I need to loose 3 more stone.

I will then be sensible and follow maintenance.

I'm 5ft 3 too! The comfortablest weight I've been is 9st 7lbs and I looked quite skinny, don't think I'd look healthy going any lower! xx

Yh think it's different for everyone I've got quite a big frame xxxxx

I'm not exactly wide framed but not dainty & petite either, so if I go below 9.7 I start looking ill and like I'm on drugs! I'd kill to have skinny slinky legs, unfortunately was blessed with thick ones!

Im still doing a food diary about low gl food (food that doesnt contain sugar or artificial additives) ive only just finished cambridge, so i thought i would write a diary about my maintenance to keep me on the right track - and so my brain doesnt think 'diets over lets go back to eating crap!' in trying to get a healthy relationship with food as i have suffered eating disorders in the past, so being on a forum like this is great for me because it gives me support and the boost i need sometimes when i feel like i might binge etc. Xx

Hi Lauren!

I have been on the Cambridge diet since 20th February so just coming up 3 months. I started at 13 Stone 6 and I am currently 11 stone exactly so 2 Stone 6 lbs off since then! I started on SS for the majority of it but over the past few weeks have moved up the steps and I'm currently doing a mix of Step 2 & 3 and having the same losses as I did when I was on SS+! Clothes wise I started at a size 14 which were starting to get tight and I'm now at a comfortable 12, sometimes a 10. I think I am going to lose 10lbs more to get into 'healthy' BMI and then re-evaluate my goal weight of 9 stone 7lbs as I weigh 'heavy' (I don't look like I weigh as much as I do!) as I don't want to look too skinny! I would love to get into the 9 stones but I think that is for my head rather than my health... xxx

Hello well done on your loss! That's amazing! I can't wait to be on step 3 just cause some of the allowed foods sound so yummy! Lol.. I know what you mean, people say I don't look 12 stone but I am, I must hold it well all over my body or something.. Good luck for the rest of your journey & congrats on what you've accomplished so far! xx
