Hi Jenboo,
Well done on taking the first step and arranging your meeting! I started the diet 6 weeks ago now (can't quite believe it) and I haven't looked back.
The advice that I would give:
Be prepared, the first couple of days may feel like you are putting your body through hell, you will be tired, probably have headaches and feel really deprived - this is the first big test. What you get at the end though is so worth persevering with it. I have so much energy now and rarely get any hunger feeling - only of I have left it a bit too long between products.
Drink lots of water, I fill up a two litre bottle every morning and ensure that I finish it whilst having lots of green tea as well.
As much as it will test you in the first week, try to stick to just Cambridge products! It gets you in the right frame of mind, I have started mixing SS and SS+ but think I needed the first four weeks being 100% dedicated to keep me motivated.
Your breath will smell - breath spray! So addicted to the stuff!
When you feel deprived and down remind yourself why you are doing it, remind yourself of the financial cost and most of all remind yourself of the cost to your weightloss should you decide to give in...
Come to this forum, read through people's diaries and thread, there is so much inspiration an everyone is so motivational, there were a couple of days in the first week where I was so close to giving in, all I wanted was to eat an egg (allowed on SS+) but I knew that if I couldn't stick to it in the first week then I never would, I came onto the forum and before I knew it I had written off the idea, persevered and then reaped the rewards at my weigh in
I hope this helps, good luck with your journey!
