Hiya, I agree with SpaceAngel. I am on my 2nd day off my 2nd week. My partner and I are doing the diet together but she didnt loss in her 1st week and I did. The only differnece is I am eating lots of free foods and super ones. I can easily eat a few bananas, apples, punnet of grapes, 2 punnets of blackberries and cherry tomatoes plus my salad for lunch and evening meal. FREE FOOD ARE FREE!!! You can eat and eat. I think my weight loss of 6lbs in my first week proves that! I have done cambridge diet and lost 5.5stone in 12 weeks on lighterlife but its gone back on. SW is a lifestyle and habit change. It obvioulsy works by seeing everyones weight loss on here. This diet needs to effect your eating habits for life! I know its strange to start off with but give it a go.
