Well done Lou, that was an excellent choice, particularly as you had to cook the eggs, and usually when I feel like that its a matter of getting something quick, which crisps and cake are... They too are my favourites!!!!
Really missing cake and bread!!! But hey, one day we can have it, just in smaller portions!!! :0)

Morning V, sorry to hear your feeling bloated today.... I hate that feeling....
Feeling sorry for you with work and college.... I'm off to the office in a few minutes.... It's a new year, starting today and my business is changing, so very exciting!!!! Well to me it is anyway!!! Lol!!! :0)
Your right though, we can both get to the lower stone bracket by next week, just gotta keep going....
I keep telling myself, if I stick to plan it will get easier... I just hope I'm right... Some days I could eat my own weight in crap.... I miss yummy food so much.... But, it will get easier.... Here's to week no. 2 :0)

yeah mozarella on its own, i refuse to cheat today, i have pre-prepared meals for my family so i wont need to stand and cook tonight, thats the worst time for me. Im going to try just 3 products a day this week, I would love to have another good loss next week, so I want to keep on the straight and narrow. im pretty stoked with my weigh in yesterday as it was first day of my time of the month so i was bloated and carrying water, so hopefully next week i can drop all of that. in 2lbs i have lost 2 stone. in 9lbs I have lost 2 and a half stone. next monday is the end of my first month on this diet and whatever happens i want to know i did the best i could for the first month at least.
feeling very motivated today, lets see how long it lasts LOL

Hey there ladies x
Just finished college and feeling exhausted, it's a lovely sunny day though and that is motivating me to stick to being good with the eating but....and there's a big but, I don't know if I'm going to continue wig the Cambridge diet because I keep cheating!! And really, that's not the way to do it lol. I think I may follow a low carb plan and substitute a few of my meals with Cambridge if that makes sense, so far today I've had nothing which isn't good I guess but I'm looking forward to going home later and having what I had last night! Scrambled egg with ham, felt so good yesterday actually eating something and I didn't feel the least bit guilty, is that right??! Anyway, would be good to know what my ladies think? I always live to hear what u guys have to say because I think this really is a lovely thread and I do enjoy talking to you all xx
Whatever the case, I'm going to see my cdc tomorrow and get weighed and then hopefully by then I'll have come to a decision.
How are u all today? Betty sounds like you're gonna kick some ass today eh!!
Kat you're doing brilliantly!! Fingers crossed for ya next week u can get you're 9 lbs/2.7 stones gone forever!
Susan, I'm a total foodie, love my crisps n cakes! But funnily enough I wasn't craving nothing bad yesterday which was a total 1st for me I tell ya!!! Crazy! Scrambled eggs never tasted so good!
V, no doubt you'll be 11.13 next week luvvy xx
Catch ya later guys x

have you thought about going to step 2? is that where you have 2 cambridge diet things and then a meal? i dont know i havent read that far ahead.
i think at the end of the day its an expensive diet and you do need to be really commited to make it work, and there is no sense in feeling bad about yourself 3 times a week. at the moment i am still in the zone but i know there will be plenty of times when i am not

Honestly I'm on Week 2 of Weight Watchers and I'm all but off the wagon. I rarely cheated on Cambridge, probably 3 times in the 8 weeks and I was very good week 1 on WW as I lived in fear of putting on weight immediately after changing my diet but I've been away for the last 4 days on a mini break with the family and it wasn't good tbh. I'm currently having issues locating the wagon let alone getting back on it and even being really good on hols, no desserts, fruit starter and protein and salad dinners with no frys at breakfast and limiting myself to one alcoholic drink a day I still put on 2 lbs and I'm after tearing into the sweets I brought back to my colleagues. I think this week might be my first gain at weigh in. That said I'm only using the 26 points a day, not using my activity points or my 49 weeklies and I think if I did I'd definitely put on weight every week.

U haven't cheated eating eggs so don't beat yourself up I've lost most of my weight but eating an omelette at night!
If u think u can do low carb go for it, but I know I'm safe on Cambridge and wat I've got for meals. Think when I start introducing food that's when I'm gonna struggle as to many temptations xx ps plus I'd miss u xx

Hi V,
I'd say if this diet is gonna work you have to stick to plan almost 100%. Sounds to me like you should take the pressure off and go for low carb, if it doesn't work and you go crazy you can always come back to Cambridge. Sometimes something like this gives you the nudge you need to stay on track. At the end of the day you'll be greatful for everything that passes your lips if you switch diets.
Xxx
Week 1) -7
Week 2) -12
Week 3) -3
Week 4) -5
Week 5) -3 (even with a full night off)
Week 6) -4
Week 7) -3
Week 8) -3
Week 9) sts (4 days off plan)

Lou, I know what you mean... However I've often come off CD and reckon I will low carb it, and I know your not me, but each time I've just come back to CD fatter!!!
It's hard and slow not on CD, but CD is hard!!!
Don't forget though, eggs ain't cheating!!! ?

I thought on step 2 you could have low carb meals? At the end of the day if you have 2 products a day and a low carb meal not in excess of 300 cals then you are essentially still doing it. Personally I can't be trusted with food which is why I am trying this.

Hey ladies x
Well thanks for all the feedback, it's been really interesting reading your posts! As yet, I still haven't decided what I'm doing! Right now I'm just concentrating on the weigh in and will see where I go from there I guess. So far today I've not been doing the diet but I've not been bad neither, I was at college all day and got home quite late so have had 2 scrambled eggs and gallons of fizzy water and nothing else. My appetite is quite suppressed right now and I'm not craving anything at all and for some reason I'm not eating my packs?!?! I seem to have rebelled from them lol even the shakes aren't tempting me right now, don't know what's going on there?!
So scrambled egg isn't cheating?! Ooook, well that puts a different spin on it I guess, like sunshine, I may have to enquire about going up a step, but what are the losses like?? I thought would be the same as going lo carb?? Ooooooh this diet malarkey so confusing at times! Let's see what the weigh in tomorrow brings.....hmmm should be interesting lol
Na nite ladies x
