I am just wondering why so many ask this question when I was under the impression that every was to receive a book explaining everything about CD before they start CD. Why is it that so many post this same question. It seems a lot of people don't have the books. Why is that? Just curious.

my CDC does not give out the booklets. After a couple of weeks I asked for one and she charged me £2.50!

I ordered one for my first meeting and then my CDC said it was free however if I lose it and require another then she charges a pound. Seemed quite reasonable to me! xx

Yep my cdc gave me the booklets and inspiration mag all free and also a black bag to carry my cd packs in when i go to weigh in's too.

Aww yours sounds a good CDC yummymummy. Mine visits my home so no need to carry the packs home which is great! She's also great about ordering odd order numbers too.

I've not been given any books either. When I asked her what to have as I need to be on food this week (monetary issues) she just said green veg and white protein. Thanks! Am sticking to chicken and egg (she said egg was ok as I will have to deal with school dinners - they're 1 quid and I have 5quid to get me through the week) Ah, rent, how I loathe thee!

I have the books but not all of then things mentioned by loubyloo are in the book (like the gelatin and husks), although they have been sanctioned by CDC when contacted directly about them.

I personally would quite like to know about the vague items which are listed in the book, like herbs and spices and low fat dressing (I think this is only on higher programmes though...). I've found out from posts that Kraft do good fat free dressings but personally I have no idea about seasonings and would like to know if there are any which could knock me out of ketosis or have a high salt content and could make me retain water.
