Hello..
I am new on this forum - I've done Lipotrim in the past, and then went onto Slimming World but it just isn't doing it for me.
One of my friends has started CD and she is thrilled with the results so far, so I am thinking of trying CD too.
Can anyone tell me if there are any differences between LT and CD ? what can I expect ?
I think that the counselling that comes with CD is what I need, all my chemist did with LT was weigh me and take my money ...LOL

Thanks

Tracy

There isn't really any counselling with CD. You have your CDC who's there to encourage you and give you support but it's Lighterlife which has counselling in terms of cognitive behavioural therapy.

Cambridge is cheaper with a broader range of flavours and we have porridge which rules, LL didnt have it when i did cd first time around! And there is no councelling which in my own view is a bonus and a CDC to encourage you every step of the way.

That is what I need - I didn't mean counselling as in laying on a couch - I just wanted someone to talk to about the diet and how I was doing. My LT chemist just weighed me - didn't seem to care how many times I fell off the wagon and why, just took my cash.
I've got an appointment with a CDC at 13:15 - wish me luck !!

Sorry for the delay - well I signed up yesterday and started my journey this morning.. had porridge for breakfast, the jury is still out on that one and then I have just had a chocolate shake for my lunch.
On my 2nd litre of water as well

well done - sounds like you are getting into it ok x

Well done getting started Don't forget to let the porridge stand.. you'll get used to it! lol I find it like a milky pudding /almost rice pudding - rather than normal porridge, but like the apple one

Try adding ice to your shakes and maybe hot water if you like it that way

you'll soon find the flavours you like and the ones you don't

Look forward to congratulating you on your first weeks losses next week!

Thanks for the best wishes and hints and tips on the shakes etc. I have just had Vegetable soup for my tea and that was not too bad at all.
