Hi there everyone!!
Well this is the start of my new CD journey. I have got my first consultation session with my counsellor this aft and am intending to commence ss on sunday 7th November, It's the 5th today and we organised about a month ago to have friends over for bonfire night so it seemed daft starting the day after.
Gosh Im rambling already! Where to start with my story eh? I was always slim growing up and very very sporty too. Then something happened when i hit 25......and I expanded! Lol! To be honest I think I just continued to eat and drink what I wanted to, but getting a bit older and doing less excercise etc made the calories stick. I went from 132lbs at 20 up to 180lbs at 28. I joined WW and managed to get down to 142lbs for my wedding day aged 30 back in 2006.
Almost 5 years and 2 children later I have essentially yo-yo'd. I hit 226lbs after the birth of my first daughter in May 2008 and again did WW and got down to 156lbs by April 2009. I then fell pregnant again and gave birth again in May 2010 after which I was around 200lbs. In July 2010 I rejoined WW and am now 175lbs however I am bored with WW. Dont know why, just bored of counting points. I did so well last time with it so decided I just needed a change of plan.
5 weeks ago I bumped into a friend who I've not seen in 6 months. She looked AMAZING!! Losing 6 stone in as many months!! I was mezmerised!! She told me she had done it on the cambridge diet. I have therefore spent the last 5 weeks researching ss on the CD and am sooo excited to be starting in less than 48 hours time!! Im cutting back on carbs this week and drinking lots and lots of water of preparation and am ready for the battle to commence! I know it's not going to be easy, especially at the begining but I know with lots of support I can do this. Who's with me?!
Thank you for reading my first ever diary post - feel free to post anything. I have been a bit of a lurker reading other's diaries and am inspired by you all.
