Yeah the food you have had is fine! I always think that if i really need food I would hope to have food from the SS+ menu, rather than a total binge and blow out!

My headache has come back and I feel very tired..........and my breath stinks!!! I just need to get through this bit now!! Went to OH's brothers house and they put a bowl of crisps on the table. Both OH and I resisted them but on the way home I kept thinking about food and when I can eat again :( Not enough to push me over the edge and I don't even feel very hungry.....just feeling a bit sad that it's come to this I guess.

BUT I just need to keep thinking of my ultimate goal!

That's what I thought I really don't want to blow it but just couldn't get food off my mind today.
Well done for not giving into temptation I went to a BBQ yesturday and I was giving my son a cheese burger n I swear my hands wer shaking haha but I didnt cave x
 
We are being so good!!! But resisting a cheeseburger is like the ultimate challenge!!!!

Fran.....I don't think I can get over my weighing obsession but as long as I weigh at the same time every few days I should be ok!

Was feeling a bit out of sorts but this has been totally redeemed by the banana shake I just had! It was gorgeous! And I put it in a blender with ice cubes so it became like a banana slush puppie! I'm eating it with a spoon as its lovely and thick and it honestly tastes like a dessert!
 
Haha it was very hard I had to smell it a few times and imagine!
Oh the banana shake sounds yum!
I havnt tasted tha banana yet but defiantly will get one tues!
I can not Stop thinking about food today! Had al my shakes so am just gonna have a black coffee
But today has defiantly been the worse for food thoughts! X
 
10.weeks in and i never stop thinking bout food :/ imagine it covered in dog poo lol will thst help? Lol x
 
10 weeks? I was hoping food would be a distant memory by then!
Woke up today with a banging headache and feel hungover??????
Can't wait to get weighed tomorow to giv me some motivation.
Haha iv got a feeling that will work Fran! Xx
 
Morning hun yes i still think bout food :/ maybe its just me hun.yes your symptoms sound about right hun just keep drinking the water and try and keep positive hun xx
 
I think we will always think about food - its making the right choices re what we eat and knowing when to stop. I love vegetables, salads, fish, and I love cooking so I could easily have survived on a healthy diet. But wheres the fun in that eh?! I also love pizza, indian and italian food and I wouldnt want to give them up. I'd love to be in a position where I am at a healthy weight, and I have healthy food throughout the week and allow myself 1 naughty day a weekend to go out for dinner or have a takeaway. It's early days and I don't know if I could ever do that. I envisage my 1 naughty day becoming 4 and putting all the weight back on! Nothing will be worth that! This is a lifestyle change.....yes, its a quick fix. But unless we want to end up doing cambridge everytime we start eating again we need to make some changes. I would want to be able to eat properly at some point -carb free throughout the week and 1 naughty day as I've said over. I would only want to do cambridge to get rid of some extra pounds after a holiday or xmas. It sounds impossible right now but I really can't be where I am now again.

Ooh, I've got all serious ladies!

Fran -I note you are in Swansea! I'm a swansea uni graduate 2005! I actually met my fiance there and now we are living in leafy Surrey! (He is from Surrey originally!) My sister is starting Swansea uni in a couple of weeks time so I will be going up to visit her a little bit! Plus an excuse to go back as we LOVE it there!
 
Omg how mad! Yes im from swansea mumbles to be exact.i bet you had many a night out on the town lol.aw thats lovely u met at uni.your v v right abiut food choices i think the 80/20 rule may work for me eat healthy 80% time but allow for 20% naughtyness he he.xx
 
I feel the same girls. I would love to be able to eat healthy through the week and just enjoy my self on a Saturday but I guess time will tell if I can do that I struggle to only have one day off.
Before this I was doing slimming world. And 1 day of for my sons 1st birthday led to 2 weeks off and then joining Cambridge
I love having the support here if I feel like I'm struggling I just pop over to this page it's a life saver lol x
 
Hey there,

Sorry to hear about your relationship ending, Just think fresh starts. How amzing you will look and feel after you reach your target weight, an automatic confidence boost and you wont look back. Well done to you for not caving in with the wine, keep going, stay determined and you will soon feel better than ever. I am on my 8th day and have lost a total of 9lbs so far, I am so very excited for my weigh in on Friday!

P.S. are boiled eggs allowed on Cambridge Sole Source?

Fia xx
 
Hi fia not sole source but if u had the eggs you could do it as a sole source plus day

Hi Hun. Thank you. Well done so far I am finding today sooooo hard contemplating giving up :( I don't want to giv up but today I just need to eat!!! I know I will regret it if I give up :( I'm just so hungry today x
 
Aw no hun why do you feel like that hun? What day are you on? If you give up you will hate yourself tom and its so not worth it.go to bed go for a walk do whatever it takes to get through todsy and i promise the achiement youl feel tom when u wake up will totally make it worth it.if u feel u have to eat then eat some chicken or some green salad hun xx
 
Phew it's passed. :) I took some time out and cleaned my bathroom to forget and I feel fine now lol ain't it funny how 1 minute u feel like u dont care and are happy the way u r and the next ur thinking sort ur bloody self out girl! X
 
Abbie! Do NOT GIVE UP!!!!!!! You will regret it so much and then you'll be even more miserable because you'll know that you COULD have done it!

As I was writing this I see that the moment passed! Phew! Just remember that feeling though-no matter how rubbish you feel the moment WILL pass! Had you given in then you would never have known that just a short amount of time later you would be feeling postive again!

Think about it; if you had given up you'd be feeling miserable right now. Because you did the right thing and distracted yourself, the moment passed and all is ok in the world again!

It's a blooming emotional rollercoaster this journey....we just need to ride it out and not get off when it gets a little bit scary!
 
Do u get weighed tom hun? Glad it passed these things happen but thry do pass :) xx
 
Good luck for weigh in,the food demons are constant lol Obviously I've given in at times and it's made it harder to get back so I dwell in the feelings I get if I give up and sometimes it saves me we can do this girls 1pound at a time 1 day at a time and before we know it we can work through maintenance together I never ever Want to have to do this extreme way of diet again we can help each other :) x
 
Still struggling today. But ur right slimminggirl we know y we r doing this and wouldn't have chose such a drastic diet if we wasn't desperate. Think might have some cauliflower. I just don't feel right x
