2 days into the cambridge diet. finding it very difficult.

I have just started the Cambridge Diet as must lose weight. Since my daughter was born almost two years ago i can't seem to stay on a diet and after doing lots of research i found that the cambridge might be perfect for me.

I am doing Sole Source and I am determined to stick to it no matter what, but I'm in day two and finding it really hard. I'm very hungry and today I feel a bit weak if I'm honest.

Is anyone in the same position, or have been and can offer this hungry woman some pearls of wisdom? I think it will really help to hear from others, or maybe a small group of us can share experiences with as we go along.

I hear ir gets better after a few days, but at the moment it's hell! I find the shakes and soups O.K though and I am drinking the correct amount of water.

Excited about the propect of being nice and slim and that it keeping me going, i have more than 5 stone that I want to lose!

Well, better go blend up a shake now before i pass out!

I was on soul source and lost 2 1/2 stone

Ask your councillor about a green and white meal of an evening.

Basically a chicken breast and the salad that you are permitted. Its something to look forward to of an evening and satisfies the need for something to chew. and it is perfectly acceptable on the soul source.

Have any of you heard of Celebrity Slim ? Im thinking of trying it. Also its cheaper per week than The Cambridge.

Good luck with it girls.

Thanks for your replies ladies!

Hi to the 3 ladies who replied yesterday.

I have requested you to to be my friends and think maybe the four of us could form a support group online while we do this diet!

It's day 3 for me now and so far i feel less like fainting, which i suppose is a good thing! I also do feel less hungry!

It does feel slighly easier this morning, but I will have to see how the day goes.

Lets all share weight loss after weigh ins too! That will be good motivation for us all i think!

Best of luck to us all. Lets just take it each day at a time.!

Talk to you all soon!

Cambridge day 4!!!

hi im on day four and struggling, if you would like we could be buddys and help each other. i know i could do with the support.

i also have more than 5 stone to lose and are determined to do it for my sons wedding.

i know the diet works because this time last year i lost 2 1/2 stone, which i stupidly put back on.
it feels harder this time around but im not going to give up.
hope to hear from you soon

I could do with some support too! day 4!

Hi,

I am glad to see other people out there are feeling the same as me! I have just under 4st to lose and need all the motivation I can get. I have been great in losing weight via healthy eating and exercise - managed to lose a stone and a half in 3 months (a lot longer that CD) But when I put half a stone back on in the space of two very VERY awful weeks of eating I decided to switch to CD.

Yesterday was a fantastic day for me - I had so much energy went out for a cycle and done some sit ups at home. I thought I was over the worst but today seems to be harder than yesterday (probably down to the smell of toast in the office!)

If you don't mind me asking what led you to regaining the weight? The reason I ask is because I don't want to put myself through this if I am just going to regain!

Weight gain

hi i dont mind you asking anythin,

i was still on the diet when i went on holiday with my husband and grandson to the dominican republic to the best hotel ive ever seen. Well it was all inclusive the food was fantastic the booze free and cold perfect on a sorching beach. i came back and id put a stone on in two weeks and that was the start of my gain. we then had a death in the family which really upset us it was so sudden and because i comfort eat thats how i put the rest back on.
i will never do it again though it so hard to lose weight but so very easy to put it back on.
any time you have a question or just need a chat or support you know where i am.
