Cambridge Diet

spud30

Hi guys, sorry not been around for a day or 2. Well done on some fab losses, and thanks for checking on me Maz and Pap.

I thinks the Spuds are coming to the end of their CD journey. DH is still having really severe diarrhoea, and agonising tummy pains so will have no choice but to stop. And just to make matters worse, he's been through all that to lose just 2lbs this week.

We've both been this afternoon, got another week's supply, but I will use those and some more that we have in from when we've only managed 3 shakes a day, so should have around 3 weeks supply. That will bring me to the end of May, when I'll start eating properly, and hopefully healthily.

I've loved being on CD, and havent missed eating at all, but I do really miss the social side of sitting down for a meal together as a family. I havent told CDC yet, and wont be putting up with any 2 weeks notice nonsense!!

So, that's it. I'll stay subscribed to the thread so I can keep an eye on you lot.

Then you can count down and look forward to sitting round the table with your family and enjoy! Think of us as you eat that first mouthful and don't let it creep up again like I did last year or you will be miserable. Count your calories. Good luck to you both

Aww Spud! You can't leave, i just got here! Ah well, sounds like it's for good reason and you've already done so well. Stick around though, cos god knows i'll be having frequent 'wobbly' moments and will need your wisdom! :rolleyes:

Quick question everyone, i forgot to take any packs with me today to work. So i just thought i'd grin and bear it and make sure i had something as soon as i got in. I expected the day to be hell, but i didn't feel even slightly hungry once. I still don't. It's really alarmed me, cos for a brief second i thought i'd see how long i could go without feeling hungry. Could i go all the way to tomorrow's WI after work before i ate anything? I'm not gonna do that cos it's mental. But as someone who's always been a slave to food, i suddenly felt like this could get out of hand as the temptation to not eat anything was quite overwhelming.
So what's the verdict doctors, am i a fruitcake? Why isn't my body telling me to eat?

Bounce thats a classic sign of ketosis. It means you arnt hungry because your body is getting all it needs from your fat to keep going. Savour the momment :T

Well day 5 for me and all going well. Have to drink some of the flavours I dont really like but I am thinking its only untill Sunday A few days ago I tried black tea and I didnt really like it, however today I tried it with callorie free sweetners and its lush :T I love my tea really strong anyways but never tried it black, well I think mine will be black forever now :rotfl:

Have a great evening/weekend all

I was just gonna txt you Spud....was worried about you......shame about Mr Spud. You must do what is best for you both.. Have you tried the food focus website to log your food if you are going on to eat healthily...

Does your CD woman make you give two weeks notice:eek: thats shocking if she does and tbh as long as you didn't sign anything I wouldn't worry about it...

Big kiss from me anyhow and don't go missing in action again....humph....:D

(Land_of)_Maz

well my little potato chip... i can see your reasons for opting out, and especially feel for Nick as he's had a hard time of it......

it's a real shame though as it's working for you, and you're finding it relatively easy..........

I reckon the great loss you've had and will have for the next 3 weeks, will give you a real boost, and some senbsible low carb, low cal meals will continue to reap rewards for you......

You'll be off it when we're in Leeds, you lucky mare!! I'm still gonna be plodding away by then.....

unless some miracle occurs between now and then...... which i very doubt!

Ohh I'm so confused and angry with myself

Last night I cheated badly, and now feel so ill and cant sleep :wall:

It's made me think I maybe should carry on CD by myself without DH. I'm scared I'll slip right back into old habits on my own, just like I did tonight.

I lost 4lbs this week, so am still doing quite well. That makes 1 1/2 stone in 3 weeks.

Ohh I dont know what to do. I should be in bed, but felt the need to come and waffle to you lot, even though none of you will be here :rolleyes:

Are you finding it hard but secretly wishing you could carry on with it? I felt like that last week and now I am fine. I am on sole source plus this week and yesterday had tuna and some rocket (picked fresh from my garden if you please, 'The Good Life'!). Why don't you carry on for a bit. You can sit round the table with the family for the rest of your life, just not now! Well you can like me, but with your shake!

Keep going. When you get to target you won't want to eat loads and feel ill. Just look at it as a blip and start afresh today. You won't be going it alone because we are all doing it too... :T
