you can have tablet sweetener in your tea if you prefer it hun

The porridge had sadly the same effect on me... when I did Cambridge before I got pregnant I remember the porridge being okay, but sadly no, i remembered wrong!

Poor you having to sit through the burger king torture, I work nightshifts at work and have had to made supper for all the patients this week, plus sit through my colleagues eating takeaway

I haven't had soups yet as a rememberthem being gross, although I m such a savoury person it's killing me to have everything sweet!

I seem to get in best with strawberry tetras, fruits of the forest, choc mint and choc shakes. Banana I find too... Gritty, but I'll finish them anyway as the aren't too bad.

Only problem I've encountered so far is my gum is really sensitive due to having a dry mouth all the time, and it's making it a nightmare to brush my teeth!

How's everyone doing today then?!? Xoxo

 

[leedsforever]

im easing myself into it... as im drinking tonight its not wise to do sole source from today so will eat something tonight but just have shakes today! xx

 

[leedsforever]

well my weekend of being semi good went a little crazy lol

sole source tomorrow... !! Im ready for it

 

[pinkbow]

im worried after u go back to food u gaim the weight back?? ....happend to OHs work colleague altho he was rather large lol

 

[leedsforever]

hey pinkbow

I was worried about that too but ive been off and on with this diet and the past 2 weeks ive ate nothing but crap lol... and i havent gained For the more hardcore and committed there is a plan to ease yourself back onto food though..... and apart from this past 2 weeks, after being on cambridge it just makes you more aware and you dont really want to eat as much as you proberly would..

Im back on it today tho .. how much do you have to lose? x

basically you just supplement all your meals

 

[pinkbow]

Heey thanks for getting back to me, thats good to hear about it not all piling back on ....i dont really eat much just the wrong sorta stuff...and with BF ive eaten more calories too oops...

my LO is currently weaning off BF do u know if i have to wait a certain amount of time before i can start i cant really find that info

Maybe around 2, 2 1/2 stone...get back down to pre pregnancy weight preferably hehe

 

[Kimboowee]

Anyone need any sachets? I've not got much use for them now lol!

 

[bana]

speaking of sachets ive got 3 left over this week- whoops. I just couldnt bring myself to drink the savoury ones, i have nightmares from last time i did it- they were rank. Im all for chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate!

 

[leedsforever]

day 1 over with

i dont like the sachets hun im to lazy lol... tetra all the way!!
pinkbow i think your fine to start straight after you have stopped bf-ing go on the cambridge diet website and find a counsellor in your area xxx you can do it xx

 

[orange-sox]

Ooo what Sachets have you got Kim??

Yay Leeds, you go girl! Bet those last few lbs will drop off you!

Thought I'd share an exciting bit of news with you all! My first week (albeit not an official weigh in as my consultant is holiday) I've lost..... 10lbs!!!

That's on SS+ as well (I can't justify the extra money per meal to go up to 4 a day due to my job and the fact im a 10th of an inch under 5'8 lol, when I can get smart price cottage cheese which is 0.4% fat for 46p).
