I weigh over 25 stones. I expect to weigh more than this on New Years Day after all the festive scoff is over. Xmas Grin

I am going to start the Cambridge Diet - Sole Source - on New Years Day.

I have found my Consultant and we have met, she lost 13 stones in 9 months and has kept the weight off for over 7 years!

4 Cambridge choc mint shakes per day.

3 - 4 litres of water per day.

Anybody else planning on starting The Cambridge Diet in 2012? Come join me and we can support each other.

Xmas Smile

Ohbloody - are you doing SS, or SS+ ? I started on SS+, there is no way I could have coped with SS!

Overtiredmum · 15/03/2012 19:06

And you're doing really well Cockneydad!

ohbloodynora · 15/03/2012 19:09

I'm doind ss, I thought if I ate it might make me more hungry!!

cockneydad · 15/03/2012 21:39
  • Hey ohbloody - my consultant doesn't bother with SS - she seems to think that very few people can cope with it - I wonder if it is worth considering SS+ if you continue to struggle, it works just as well.

-Thanks overtired !
