Cambridge Diet / 1:1 diet, anyone? 2020 targets?

[MrsHufflepuf]

Hi all, does anybody want to buddy up through weight loss journey? I'm feeling really positive. I have 6 stone to loose in order to qualify for any fertility treatment.

I'm on sole source, step one. Sticking to shakes this week. Might have some "meals" next week. Might treat myself to a bar next month.

I feel like the bars could be a slippery slope
for me... I prefer cutting all solids out.

Yes I know, not the healthiest diet long term.. I have no intention of gaining it all back. It's not for everybody, please be nice :) I need a kick start.

@Campervan69 oh sweetheart I'm so sorry, that is utterly awful for you all. Sending thoughts and love xx

@Campervan69 Oh I'm so so sorry lovely, what a shock for you all. Big hugs xx

@Campervan69 what a shock, sending love to you all xxx

Thank you everybody it has been a very sad time. Managed to stick to the diet however.

I'm trying not to let my emotions derail me. Hope everybody else has a good day today.

Really sorry to hear about that! Well done for sticking with it.xx

I got weighed today and lost 8lbs in my first week. Happy enough with that!

@EREID1358 that’s amazing!! Well done, you must be chuffed to bits!!! Each weigh in spurs you on further 👏👏👏

Wow 8lbs. This diet sure works if you stick to it. That's what's keeping me motivated. Congratulations.

5lb gone forever 👋👋👋

@Campervan69 I am sorry to hear that..loads of love and your family is my prayers and super ratings to the fact you stuck to the diet xx

@EREID1358
hard work pays off..amazing results.. xx

@Allysan amazing loss well done sweetheart xx

@EREID1358 what a great loss....well done! X

@Allysan wow that's a MASSIVE weekly loss....I only just get a little over that fortnightly lol 😝😝😝 x

Thanks @Mexyy @Delly1977 I was very happy with my little self. I should hit 2 stone on Friday unless something goes terribly wrong.

How’s everyone’s weekend? I nearly threw myself off the wagon again yesterday after dealing with some difficult family issues but stayed on track. I don’t know how because I could of easily had a few drinks.

I keep thinking of how far I’ve come and where I want to be. I’ve just baked with the kids too. That’s a challenge. I just keep thinking of being on my summer holiday (first one with the kids and 13 years since our last one) and going on the water slides and not feeling I have to run as quick as possible to get into the sea 😂😂 I always carry the rubber rings and body boards to cover all my shame 😂

Well done guys.

We currently have cakes in the oven and I'll probably have one. I'm having a horrible weekend and am bloody starving today.

Sorry to hear that @RedDhalia is this your first week back on it?

It is, and infinitely harder this time around!

I'm defo more hungry and I'm also very irritable!! Kids (3 & 5) are creating world war 3 between them and I just don't have the patience for this type of shit currently!

I inhaled a cup cake before, plus icing. I'm not proud but I don't really care today! It's the only thing I've done wrong this week. Meh.

Normally I would be looking forward to the peace tomorrow when everyone goes to work/school/nursery but I have the hospital again first thing and I think that's adding to my mood. Feel like a 13 year old with the world against her.

Sorry for the pity party, tomorrow is a new day xx

@Allysan ahhhhhh you have done so well! Don’t predict your failure and don’t expect to fail! That’s our biggest mistake! You will hit your two stone loss this Friday and you will go on holiday feeling proud of your body and feeling amazing xx

@RedDhalia sweetheart get your health back in order and relax..once your operations are done then jump back on the diet..I have realised that every time I came off Cambridge before and then tried and failed at getting back on because it was so much harder..and the taste of the products got worst..don’t waste your money and effort..for your healths benefit and to help reach your goal..it maybe the best Soloution..especially the fact that after your operations you might need specific foods and so on especially as Cambridge products can back your bowels up xx

So very sadly my lovely mother in law died Friday night. I did go a bit off plan because of this but had my first weigh in just now and lost 7lbs. So really pleased.

Determined to crack on. I am doing step 2 now so have had a chicken breast and cherry tomatoes for tea. Hope everyone else is doing well.

@Campervan69 so sorry to hear about your loss..your in my prayers..on the other hand well done on the loss xx

@Delly1977 good luck for today xx

@Campervan69 I just read what I wrote..I am sorry literally just woke up for work..my message comes with good intentions xx

@Campervan69 you should be very very proud of yourself x I am so very sorry about your Mother in Law and hope the upcoming days are kind to you and yours x

@RedDhalia...just do what you can, when you can. Every good day is a step in the right direction. You will get there kidda x

@Mexyy thank you...I am full of a horrid cold so will be having some lemon and honey today, and just push the fluids. Have I missed your weigh in? Or is it today? Sorry I am useless at remembering these things x

@delly1977

My weigh in is toMorrow I’m dreading it as I’m scared of I hit a plateau..weight is not going down as fast as it did in the first two months..consultant said if you do plateau on Wednesday then go to step 2..but the thought of eating chicken or something scares me as I might indulge too much..

Stay safe my sweetheart..especially with this whole corna virus..stick to your amazing routine of green tea..it should detox you and I hope you get better..I have started drinking minimum 7 cups green tea a day..the caffeine keeps me awake but I can feel the wonders it’s doing for my bowels xx

@Mexyy and @Delly1977 thank you. We are focusing on helping my father in law get through it. They were married for 60 years and so in love still.

Hope everyone has a good week.

@Campervan69 I'm so sorry for your family. 60 years is amazing and heartbreaking in equal measure. Well done on your weight loss.. fabulous start!

Hello to everyone, I've just been weighed and I'm 6lb down. Now 1lb under where I was when I went in to hospital so am pleased with that..

Aim for this week is to drink more water. I got out of the habit when I was having to control what I drank for two weeks, and am struggling to get back to it. This weather doesn't help at all!!

Xx

@Mexyy I hope you have a great result, you cant do anymore than you are doing. I had a child free night on Friday, it's very very rare as he has downs syndrome and autism so will only stay with one of my trusted friends every 4 months or so, just to give me a break (little darling doesnt sleep 😩😩), so me and hubby had a date night...I did a chicken tikka salad....it was truly delicious and it was really good to test myself. Straight back on plan, a good time had by all! (Even had a bottle of San Pellegrino lol). In such a small space of time my stomach has shrunk...I was stuffed off what would usually be my starter portion lol x

@RedDhalia you bloody superstar! Well done, you must be chuffed with that! My hubby is struggling with the water too, I can't get enough of it and have to stop myself at 5pm otherwise I'm up all night on the loo! Haha x I'm so glad you got the boost you needed x

@Campervan69 that is absolutely heartbreaking, poor poor man must be lost. It can be a cruel world xx big hugs to you and we're all here if you ever need an anonymous online rant/scream/cry/moan ❤❤❤
