  • As for bars, you should be allowed any of the bars rather than only two at the moment?

    Well, I have wondered this and three times I've asked my CDC if I can try other bars, but she says that the others all have higher calories in and are for later. I'm on week 7 now, I wonder if she's made a mistake?

    Doesn't sound right to me. This is my second time on Cambridge and the first time I was allowed any of the bars from week 3 onwards, and have put in my order for next week which will be week 3 and am having malt toffee. They are nice if you chop them up into pieces and put them in the fridge as they are really chewy and you feel like you are eating something! I am REALLY looking forward to week 3!! Might be worth going onto the Cambridge Diet website and see if there's a general contact number to find out.

    Just looked on the Cambridge Diet website and there is a contact number: admin@cambridge-health-plan.co.uk. Might be worth enquiring?

    I tried this diet and could not do it, the Tetras made me physically sick and I tried all the soups and hated the taste so sadly I could not stick to it.

    On a plus note I am doing SW now and have lost 3lb per week so maybe slower than what I would of done on CDC but I just love food.

    Congratulations to you all for sticking to it though...

    hey guys - hope everyone is doing okay?

    Re Alphamare's poll - i tend to have choc tetra in am, choc shake in pm and any other at night... i very occaisionally have a soup... didn't get on with the bars....

    i feel limited by the options i have and am starting to get scunnered but i am enjoying the choc shakes and tetra so once i hate those i might have to reconsider my options.......

    i'm having a problem with surplus packs... i've got loads left over but my CDC won't let me skip a weeks buying to catch up with myself... so i know once i stop i''ll have a cushion of packs to fall back on... does anyone elses CDC insist they buy the full amount,even though they have more than enough at home....??

    Weigh in tomorrow after 10days, hope i can pull a decent number...l i'd be happy with anything above a 4!!!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....
    (it's part of my charm!)

    Ive got surplus packs too, but the new CDC seems to be ok with us buying what we need (but i dont have a week surplus.

    Must say we fell off the wagon last night and had chinese. A lot less than we normally would though. I think we over exherted ourselves in the garden and then i was starving. Nevermind. Line under and start again.

    Maz i am feeling the same as you, i am liking less and less stuff! ive gone off all the shakes!! And only like cranberry bars

    Good luck with the weigh in let us know how it goes!! :D

    My CDC is brilliant. Week 2 of this diet I had about 9 packs left over as they were soup and couldnt face them. I gave them back to cdc and then had a discount off the new ones i bought.

    Good luck today Maz - let us know how you do. 10k is a very long way to run!!!
    If dogs don't go to heaven, then I want to go where they go. :A
