Fully agree Mrs r-b, I have lost 1.5 - 2 stones many times before, but it normal takes 3 or 4 months or more, I then come off it and then slowly put all back on. I been holding off going back on a diet because I just don't want to go through that cycle again.
I wanted to lose weight for health and fitness reasons but I could not bare watching every last item I eat. So CD is great I see faster results and it takes temptation away (to a degree, I just need to ban everyone else from eating in the house)
