This is a thread for all those embarking on, continuing and returning to Sole Source type Diets.

For some of us, its the only way to go. As the saying goes "it works if you work it".

Don't know how I'll manage while I'm away, but I'm not going to beat myself up, just got to get back on the wagon.
Talk to you soon, good luck!

eviecakes · 24/10/2012 20:13

Hi everybody, tis so great reading about everybodies losses well done to you all.Neiderau that is a fantastic first weigh in you must be well chuffed, a good incentive to carry on. I too got weighed yesterday, it was my 5th weigh in and suprisingly lost 5.5lbs. Of course i am delighted with that and it has made my mind up with wether to continue on ss or go to the next stage. As i am still focused on the ss plan im going to continue for another 4 weeks my total loss to date in 5 weeks is 24lbs and i would really like to lose another stone before the party season starts in December. Got a weekend away at the coast this week end so its going to be a real test to the willpower when everyone is eating fish and chips and fresh sugar dounuts :( Wish me luck .

PenisColada · 25/10/2012 14:41

Wow 24lb in 5 weeks. Well done. Keep it up !

ChestyNutterStaringInTheWindow · 25/10/2012 17:43

Well done neid and evie [hsmile]

22lbs off in 3 weeks here, it's amazing.

Sat through a leaving buffet of delicious food today with my strawberry shake....go me!

ChestyNutterStaringInTheWindow · 27/10/2012 19:15

Where is everyone?

PenisColada · 28/10/2012 10:27

Yes where has everyone gone ! I pluck up courage to join the thread and you all make yourselves scarce !

I am doing ok. Have the ketosis thirst on so am drinking plenty of water / green tea etc.

Does anyone still dink proper coffee ? I heard caffeine is supposed to kick you out of ketosis. Does it ?

I just sorted through my clothes and have loads I can almost fit into so can't wait to lose that first couple of stones.

ChestyNutterStaringInTheWindow · 28/10/2012 10:31

I drink buckets of black coffee and am always in ketosis.

When's your weigh in day?

PenisColada · 28/10/2012 10:32

Wednesday.

I will get some coffee on then !

PenisColada · 28/10/2012 10:35

I am doing exante so am weighing at home. I just downloaded the lighter life weight tracker app so will use that to keep track.

ChestyNutterStaringInTheWindow · 28/10/2012 13:04

How are you finding it so far?
Weigh day for me tommorow, has come round quick this week [hgrin]

PenisColada · 28/10/2012 13:29

I am finding it ok so far. I have done Cambridge Sole Source before and did well but fell off the wagon.

I am having a major health scare ATM and I need to shift a few stones. I have 9 to lose altogether (gulp)

ChestyNutterStaringInTheWindow · 28/10/2012 13:36

Think I have around 8 to loose...nearly 2 down though.

How much did you loose last time?

PenisColada · 28/10/2012 14:58

I only lost just under 2 stone but did not stick to it ! I was not in the right place.

I am now.

What is making you stick with it this time ?

I am very short so my weight is huge for my height.

ChestyNutterStaringInTheWindow · 28/10/2012 17:27

Argh posted and site went offline!

Did it before and lost 6 stone but had surgery and then an accident and didn't complete management and couldn't exercise.

The seatbelt on the plane only fitting if I breathed in, painful joints, becoming a recluse, lots of exciting thing next year and I want DC are all keeping me focused.

Elderwand · 28/10/2012 20:53

Hey chesty, good luck for weigh in!

Not got scales yet and am a bit down as I have been eating!

DH wants me to stop as its messing with my head!

Xx

ChestyNutterStaringInTheWindow · 28/10/2012 21:01

Stop CD or stop eating?

Thank you [hsmile]

PenisColada · 29/10/2012 18:30

I felt shocking this morning but realised I needed to drink more. After the water I felt ok.
