Hi Becky
4 stone will fall off you quicker than you realise.
I started the CD 8 weeks ago and have lost just under 3 stone. It is hard in the first week but you soon get used to it. I haven't cheated yet so it can be done.
Good luck!

Hi CnQ
Is it possible that you could post some before and after photos on here. I think your weight loss is amazing and definitely an inspiration to others!
