For breakfast you have the granola mix and you can either have that on its own or with natural yoghurt on and some raspberries.

For lunch they have a choice of soups. You can even add some cheese on it if you want which suits me down to the ground.

In the afternoon you can have one of their snacks - there are either a couple of different flavoured nut bars or a bacon crunchy crisp.

Then for dinner you have one of their main meals. They have a list of vegetables you can have it with - mainly green vegetables.

You are also allowed some milk during the day, tea, mint tea and you have to drink 6-8 cups of water.

Then the best bit is that you can have a treat every other day - they have a few choices of things like chocolate brazil nuts, chocolate mousse, chocolate brownie etc.

Most of it is bought though Go Lower but things like the cheese, yoghurt, vegetables, fruit you buy yourself. They deliver it to your house so it's very convenient.

I'm not at the stage yet but I'm pretty sure once you have been on it for a while you can make your own low carb recipes instead of their ones but not at the beginning.

With regards to the support you have a one to one on the phone every week but you can call or email them as much a you need inbetween and there is a forum on the website although I haven't used it yet but I have had a little read on there.

On the go lower what do you actually eat, do you have to buy it all from go lower do you see a counciller reguarly how does that part work?

Hi Colonelcupcake - I so understand where you are coming from with the cravings. I felt like that at the beginning too. I am a real chocoholic and have to admit it scared me a bit at the beginning of Go Lower knowing I could only have one chocolate bar every other day. I didn't know how I would cope but I have amazed myself at how quickly I have got used to it and don't crave it anymore.

That's good that it doesn't taste milky. I have a nut and seed mix for breakfast that can be mixed with milk but I never do that. Instead I either just eat it on its own or sometimes mix it with greek yoghurt and add a few berries to give it more flavour. It's actually nice on it's own too though.

I understand your reasons for doing the no food option and it sounds as if you are doing really well. It's great that you don't feel hungry. I haven't tried that but can't imagine me not eating! lol, I am just a piggy but that's why I like Go Lower because it's a happy medium. It's great though that you are able to keep to that.

Hi I have been on it for two and a half weeks now and I crave the rubbish I used to pig on in the evenings or when I got stressed I used to turn to chocolate crisps and coke and the like,

I hate milk but none of it tastes milky with the exception of the vanilla shake.

The one I am on is called Sole Source which means no extra food at all however, there are lots of diffrent levels which do include food on them but I am doing the lowest calory option to get the weight of fast before progressing on to eating again.

I need the strictness of it all and I feel if I ate I would over eat or not stop picking.

I don't feel hungry at all though

Sorry Colonelcupcake if I am asking something you have already said but how long have you been on it? With Go Lower I found the cravings really hard the 3 or 4 days or so but then they did start to pass and it amazes me now how I don’t feel hungry when I used to always feel hungry. I didn’t think I would be the sort of person to do a diet and not fee hungry but it does work.

Cinnamon sounds nice but I have to say I am not a milk person at all so couldn’t imagine eating porridge. Can you eat meals as well with that diet?

Thanks mummymels it can be really hard at times with the psychological cravings but that should pass, I really love the porridge with a little bit of cinnamon in it.

Thanks Colonelcupcake. It sounds as if you are doing really well too. How are you finding it? Which is your favourite meal?

Hi Mummymels that is a great loss! Well done

Hi everyone, is there room for one more here? I've been doing Go Lower which I believe it similar to The Cambridge Diet for a couple of months now. I've lost 22lbs so far in 6 weeks. I look forward to hearing how you are all getting on.

Hi I just had my week 2 weigh in and its a 3 lb lost which means 11lbs in 2 weeks! Hurray :D
