Cambridge diet day 12!

so this is day 12 of the cambridge diet....

i have to say this week has probably been harder than my first...

my first week i was purely on the tetra packs, 3 a day and i managed to lose 11lbs
this week i've started having the porridge in the morning, a shake at lunch and a soup for dinner.

i really don't mind the tastes of anything, but then again i'm not fussy hence why i got this size!!!

if i'm going by the BMI i should probably lose about... 6 stone.
but i'm quite happy to lose 3 just now, i think that would make me feel comfortable.

it's my 21st party 7 weeks on saturday and i really don't want to look like a heffalump.
i want to be comfortable and not get my pictures back to notice that i have 7 extra chins and 3 spare tyres.

i do think i can do this diet, it's not too difficult when you have an incentive.

i have had a prawn, 2 grapes and a noodle since i started though!
i have also had 2 cans of coke zero since i started as my counsellor said it would be alright, but just not to exceed more than 2 cans a day, i try and make them my treat at the end of the week or something and it works.

i am drinking about 3 litres of water a day, aswell as black tea and when i make my soup i always add a bit more water than advised. (makes it last longer!!) haha.


would be great to hear from other people about their experiences.

Help going alone

HI CAN YOU HELP I AM GOING THIS ALONE WITH OUT A GROUP I HAVE GOTTEN LOTS OF SATCHETS AND PORRIDGE BUT I AM UNSURE IF I CAN HAVE THE PORRIDGE OR NOT I AM JUST HAVING THE 3 SHAKES A DAY ON MY 2ND DAY AT PRESENT, FEELING A LITTLE HUNGRY BUT NOT THINKING ABOUT THAT AS MUCH AS I AM ABOUT BEING SLIM, CYBER SHOPPING AT THE MO LOOKING AT ALL THE GORGEOUS DRESSES I WILL BE ABLE TO WEAR WHEN I GET TO MY TARGET!! ANY WAY WHEN CAN I START HAVING THE PORRIDGE???? YESTERDAY I HAD DEFINETLY OVER FOUR LITRES OF WATER, ALWAYS DRINK A LOT OF WATER ANY WAY!! AND I HAD BLACK COFFEE WHICH I DON'T MIND BUT BLACK TEA IS REVOLTING UNLESS WEAK AND HOT!!! I HAVE BEEN WEEING A LOT BUT I KNOW THAT IS WHAT I AM DRINKING AND THAT YOU ALWAYS LOSE WATER FIRST. I FEEL VERY FLUSHED AT THE MOMENT IN THE FACE, CHEEKS BURNING BUT I FEEL ALIVE IF THAT DOES NOT SOUND SILLY, I FEEL AWAKE AND ON THE BALL.

IF YOU COULD LET ME KNOW ABOUT THE PORRIDGE I WOULD BE GRATEFUL, AND PLEASE NO BODY LECTURE ME ON NOT BEING WITH A GROUP I HAVE MY REASONS....!
MANY THANKS AND GOOD LUCK TO ALL
