So im re starting again! before i went on holiday in May, i lost a stone, put on 7lb, and since then have just put on more and more!


i gained 4 stone after i had paris went from a size 10 to a 18/20 i was miserable, i looked like a different person,it was'nt till paris was 2, i decided to take action, i started the cambridge diet, which consists on just 3 milkshakes a day... it has all the vits & mins you need, i lost over 4 stone in 4 months, went down to 8 stone and a size 6/8 i felt great, and managed to keep it off, i always new if i was to gain a lot it would be due to pregnancy and i was right, i only put 2stone on with Adam.. so now im 2 stone heavier then i was, but 2 stone lighter then when i had paris

everyone said at 8 stone i looked ill. so i want to get just under 9stone

i did want to start the cambridge diet, but because my bmi is just about classed in the healthy range, i wouldnt be allowed to start on just the milkshake.... food diets dont normally work for me, but its the only option at the moment

Stats
height 5ft4
start weight 10stone
goal weight 8stone12


day 1 of WW, so wish me luck x

Good luck honey

good luck but im sure you really dont need to diet. 10 stone after 2 kids is fab! are you doing the calorie counting or points? x

Points, im allowed 18 points aday.. and as i cant make classes, ive joined up on line!

its where im a short ass, i just look chubby at the mo lol.. x

awwww, im short and wide im sure it wont take you long to reach your goal. how much have you had to pay to do it online? x

£38.80 for first 3 months

i couldnt afford it so my dad paid it for me bless he said i better lose weight otherwise he wants his money back lol

because its ww i get carried away and intead of one of there deserts i eat 2...

but not gunna put pressure on myself to lose it in a month if i can lose over a stone by xmas ill be happy x

Good luck hun, i do WW and find it the best diet i've ever done. I've lost a stone and a half now. Hope if works well for you too

Thanks shell x

Love WW. I should really go back....

I loved having a slice of toast & marg 1.5pt, fried egg 1.5pt, mushrooms 0pt, 3 medallions of tesco HL bacon 1.5pt for brunch at the weekends. Basically a cooked breakfast for 4.5 pts. (fry in the 1 cal spray)

For a sweet treat iced gem biscuits are only 1.5pts and come in a wee bag so feels like a good munch instead of just putting 1 biscuit in your mouth.
Loads of crisps are only 1.5pts eg skips, and light crisps.
Sugar free jelly 0pt.
Lite choc mousses usually 1.5pts
The WW butternut squash soup is delish for 0pts

Good luck! You'l be amazed at how much you can eat if you look for lower fat alternatives. You'l be a size 10 in no time xxx

good luck hun! i'm sure you'll do great! i went on ww after having tommy, i lost over 2 stone in 6 months.

curly wurlys are good points wise and also the sherbert fountains lol

cheers kell

well day 1 has been good, just sticking with weight watcher meals, till i lose a bit...

and burnt 300 cals..

roll on day 2 x

Good luck hun. WW never works for me. Im doing slimming world but it isnt going too gr8. Ive only lost 2lb in 3 weeks - but better than nothing i guess. I find it too hard to give up the take aways since ive had alfie! x

well i lost 2lb ? i did ave fish n chips at the weekend. so cant complain

roll on week 2 x

Well done! Just think, even 1lb a week is almost 4 stone in a year!!! 2 stone in 6 months, or 1 stone in 3 months!!!

xxx

thats great! well done

im starting again tomorrow so u will have a diet buddy x

I need a diet buddy, not done great this week be so stressed

I've been doing ww since having matthew, not doing so good though i'm afraid
I just don't have any will power at all.
What's the cambridge diet like? is it hard? i've often wondered if i could stick to something like that and cut our 'food' altogether. my fear would be once i started eating again i would put it all back on.
I need to loose about 8 stone so i really need to do something!

ive quit my diet. not motivated at the minute! i think i put too much pressure in myself. im just gonna try eating healthy and exercising. im swimming 3 times a week atm sohopefully shud tone up too x

hey

I would recommend the Cambridge diet to anyone,and i managed to keep it off for so long till i got pregnant again

you go up plans, after you lose a certain amount of weight, you have add a meal week, which will be a small bit of chicken. and believe me you learn to valve food again

it is hard, but you dont need to calorie count, and exercise they dont recommend you doing while just on sole source ( i.e just the shakes )

it is quiet an expensive diet.. depends on your area. but you need to buy then off a CDC ( cambridge diet consultant ) you cant buy them online, the consultant is there to answer any questions you have, and you can get weigh'd weekly or every 2 weeks, sooo noing that you really wont feel the need to cheat..

if you are over 5ft8 you will need to have 4 shakes aday

I'm 5ft4
i was paying £48 a week. just for shakes, if you have the soups or bars they are a bit more expensive

first week i lost 8lb
second week 5lb
third week 4lb
and so on....

i swear it changed my life completly...

i just wish i didnt use pregnancy as an excuse to pig out

take a look at the website, as im sure its slighty changed since i done it....
you can put in your postcode and it will tell you if any CDC are in your area

My dad and sister did lighter life which is very similar, just be aware that it is an amazing way to loose weight, but the first week is bloody hard!
you tend to have to drink a fair few ltrs of water which you will get use to but its a biatch at first lol
And a not so nice side effect can be bad breath, once you are in ketisis some people get it.
You really have to make sure you do the maintanance side of the diet as thats how you re learn how to eat properly!
My sister did the whole thing and lost 4.5 stone and has pretty much stayed at her goal bar 7lbs ish, my dad did the shakes and didnt bothered with the maintanance and lost 10stone but put loads back on!

Oh yes forgot about the water, was never a problem for me.. i drank 5 litres aday... remember the more you drink the more you shrink

first 3 days where the hardest carb with drawral is the worst, and of course that feeling of wanting to eat something yummy never goes away.. but you learn how to conrol them cravings x
