Oooooo, can I join too?
I've lost 37lbs in total from my pre-preg weight (although most of that was down to morning sickness I hasten to add) and I'm about to start the cambridge diet at the beginning of next week, I have done it in the past but I wasn't in the right mindset and therefore I failed.
Just a quick note to add, the difference between slimfast and cambridge diet is that Slimfast DOES NOT provide all the minerals vitamins etc you need in a day, which is why you need a balanced meal with it to provide the basics for your body to survive on (plus you can cheat on a day and it wont really make a difference). It's is not a complete meal replacement plan and therefore the weight will come off evenly but slowly. It can also be a bit self perpetuating - I don't know about anyone else but when I eat something, I always want more, as apposed to if I don't eat, I'm not too fussed.
Whereas the cambridge diet (and lighter life too although that is far more expensive and has less variety) is a total meal replacement plan (sole source) and put your body into a state of ketosis where it burns the excess fat off - if you cheat you have to start all over again, the weight loss is quicker but you must be strict with yourself.
Lecture over *put's away glasses* I said quick note didn't I?
