Hi everyone, after months of putting it off, I am finally taking the plunge and starting the Cambridge diet. I rang a local consultant on Fri and am meeting her tomorrow. I know it will be a battle to reach my goal, but it's now or never. For the last 12 months I have been going through a very stressful divorce from my husband, and I turned to my old friend when I was stressed.....Food!! Yes, food and I have had a wonderful relationship, so much so I have put almost a stone on in less than a year. I am 5'7" and am 17st 4. I have battled with my weight for years and gradually my dress sizes have increased, so much so, that I am now starting to look at elasticated waists longingly, which is not good!!
My mum and dad are worried for my long term health and are reluctantly supporting me on my Cambridge journey. My mum reckons I should just cut down what I eat and diet normally. However, my mum isn't wired up like me and her only being a size 10/12 and never having a weight issue does not understand what it's like when you use food as a comfort. Anyway, here goes, would love to have a diet buddy so we can share our ups and downs etc. Good luck to everyone either already on Cambridge or like me, about to take the plunge. :bighug:
