My problem is that its not hunger it's just force of habit!! I get the odd hunger rumble but its not like feed me or im going to die hunger! its just out of habit the slightest twinge and ooo the belly needs fed! fed it!! really annoying!! the porridge does help me last longer tho!! fills me up just fine!


Mind you i got to start the bars this week as i ve been on CD before and my weights not shifting going by my scales!!! i just want 3.5 lbs off this week something about seeing a 10lb loss is exciting me!!


I will get there slowly but surely!!

Anyway!! hope you enjoy the husks when you get them!!

Just tried them and quite liked them! I reckon they wouold be most palatable in soups - is that allowed? x

I think you can have one of your shakes/soup with added husks aslong as you dont do it in everyone........not that i think it would have affect on any of the CD shakes but i think too much of the stuff could possibly bung you up!!


Glad you like them tho!! nice added bonus i think!! change of texture!

just finished my vanilla porridge with husks. I really enjoy it!! It certainly helps with the loo too. no more ducolax for me. Yeah!!! LOL

 

[EllieMellie]

God help us. Who would have thought that one day the highlight of our lives would be having a poo? x

Two questions regarding the husks as I'm thinking of trying them - firstly will they/could they slow weightloss? and also if I don't like them in shakes as 'porridge' can they be drank just in water on its own kinda thing?

Thanks in advance x

Thank you thank you thank you for this thread!!! All the time I have been doing cambridge I have really suffered from hunger..... I'm one of the rare people that ketosis has hardly any effect on... anyway... for the 1st time after having the husks in a choc shake I actually feel full.... and feel very positive about getting this last couple of stones off. I've read about them before but never got round to buying them.... but this time I did and so glad of it.... thanks again....

p.s alexsmummy... it says on the tub you can drink it just in water x

I just tried them in leek and potato soup and it was great! Tasted just like thick soup! Had some yesterday in a shake, which was ok..
Just waiting for the end result now..if you know what I mean..lol! x

 

[Leaving_the_fat_suit!!]

I cant stand the soup so i'll not be trying it in them.....but i do like it as the porridge or just in a cold shake!

Never dreamt I would stick to this diet! I am amazed! x
