Hello Everyone

I'm new to this forum so thought I'd post a note to say hi!

I'm looking to start the CD in 2 weeks when I get back from holiday. At the moment I'm cutting out carbs and trying to get off the diet coke (that's very hard!); plus drink more water.

Quick question(s):-

1) Do you get 'loose skin' caused by rapid weight loss?
2) Do you get used to the meal replacements? So far I have tried the strawberry packs and tetra-bricks but found both to be very sweet and sickly. Just eating my first chocolate bar and it's very very sweet - can't eat it in one go.

Wondering if it's my taste buds or if everyone finds this. I'm having a test CD day to see if I can take the taste of the new food.

Thanks for your time

Hi and welcome. I did CD for some time and found you just get used to the flavours. There's always some you will like and others you won't but my tastes changed too. Best bet is to try all the flavours and see what you like.

Not sure about the loose skin I think you can get it no matter what diet you follow

Good luck

Hi dude and welcome. I had a huge amount of loose skin, but it went eventually.
