Are you doin SS or SS+?
How much do you want to lose?

I'm doing lighter life but would like to join in for some moral support. I chose LL over cd as it has weight loss therapy which I am finding brilliant. Although its only been 5 weeks so I might be counting my luck too soon.

Yes I can admit now that the counselling you have on LL is brilliant..... I hated it at the time but when i look back I think that helped with losing the weight and maintaining!!
I was also very petrified of the leader! ;-)

5 weeks in - well done girl. you have cracked it!! Its the first 2 weeks thats the hardest for me!

Well I am trying to lose pregnancy weight - 2 stone of the stubborn stuff!!! x

doin SS been in bed all morning with a headache but feel ok now - would like to lose about 3 stone i think - doable in 3 months ? i hope so but then i do have stuff on weekends away and nites out so will have to see how i go
i really like the taste of the shakes, i am missing diet coke too - keep plodding eh ?

How're you feeling caz? I find I get lots of headaches but water helps. Weigh in tomorrow but I don't feel any thinner:( despite a jog this evening and not cheating.

Btw I miss diet coke - fizzy water does not cut it!

Planning on going on the Cambridge Diet in two weeks time after my exams are over. Want to get down from 115kg to around 85kg. Got a couple of questions that hopefully some of you guys can answer.

Would losing 30kg in a matter of months, assuming I could actually stick to the plan, leave me with excess/loose skin? Has anyone experienced this? Does it go away over time?

Would having such a low calorie intake for an extended time screw with my metabolism? Meaning I'll just find it harder to keep the weight off long term?

Just what I was going to ask Remote Part.I am 13stone and want to get down to 10stone....... what exactly is a typical day on the CD?
I cant seem to find much out about it in terms of exactly what it entails.... it just seems to say to join a consultant.
Also, am I right in thinking it costs around £40 a month? Is it much different to SF as this seems to be half the price?

Thanks xx

Hi
Started CDP last Thursday. Was going ok until today.......when at lunchtime I had SANDWICHES due to the lack of anything else, no where to make my soup and the fact that I was on a course in a hotel !!!!
I really, really need this plan to work. I'm 5ft 2 and weigh a significant amount more than I should.

Sorry for the rant.

Hi ... looking for some info on costs etc ... I can clearly see on CD website how much weekly meal packs cost but does this price include weekly meeting with your counsellor or is this extra ? Any advice would be really appreciated ...

Cheers
