Oh dear, it has been a long time since i last posted. I kept meaning to update my blog but things just kept getting in the way and also BB started and you know i have to watch it. It has been very intereting this season, but i wont go into all that.
Well, where shall i start, hmmm. Erm, i have just finished week 6 and i had my weigh in today. I lost 5lbs!! I was so in shock. I didnt expect to lose this much. I didnt drink much water this week becuase i was really busy and it is nearly TOTM, so i was sure i would have not lost much because of water retention. I finished my AAM week last week tho and i lost 2lbs!!I wasn't to upset about it because i knew it was because i had been eating that week. But, i am thinking that this weeks weight loss is probably due to me being on AAM last week and it probably stimulated my metabolism abit. Anyway, i dont want to over-analyse it all, i just want to enjoy it.
Erm, i'm trying to remember whats been going on, but i cant think of anything, lol. I had half term last week, but didnt do much, the weather was just miserable. I was just revising for exams which are now all finished. I had my last 1 today!! WOOOO!!! So now i am just going to enjoy the sun and chill. I am also going to start exercising soon, because i have no exams/revision stuff to worry about. Yey!!
But i still haven't sorted a place for university :(. I did decide to go to derby on a part time basis because they said i could. But then last week they called me up to tell me that they dont run the course part time anymore but they can offer me a full time place. I was soooo pist off. I was told that i could do it part time so i had my heart set on derby. Now i am waiting to hear from wolverhampton to see what they have to say. I also need to go to the open day to see if i actually like the university and the staff, because i have heard alot of negative things about the uni and staff support. I am also thinking of looking into chester/sheffield university and maybe foundation degrees. Its all a mess really but i am trying not to get stressed about it. I am just sick of universities telling me one thing, making me get my hopes up and then telling me something completeley different. Its kinda out the blue too! I really want to make a complaint about it, lol. Anyway enough about that.
Hmmm, what else has been going on. Last week i lived of 2 choc mint/1 choc shakes a day with one day where i had a choc bar instead of the milkshake. This week i am having 3 choc mint shakes a day and 2 days where i will have 2 shakes and 1 bar. I decided that i was not going to have any choc shakes this week because i really do not look forward to having them and i kinda put them off for ages. So i am really hoping that i dont go off choc mint shakes because they are the only flavour that i can stomach.
Erm, i think i will leave it there. I am too tired to remember what alse has been going on over the past few weeks. I have filled you in on most of the details.
I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT I HAVE LOST 1 STONE AND 7LBS UPTO DATE!! WOOOOO!!!
Goodnight xxxx

Cambridge Diet - Day 33
I haven't had time to post recently, been really busy with exams etc.
Anway, on friday i had my weigh in and i lost 4 lbs!!! Thats a stone in a month now!!! Yey!!
I was really shocked because i didnt expect to lose that much. But i think part of the reason why i lost 4 lbs could be because i didnt really have much to drink that day and also i was skipping with my sister before and i didnt really drink any extra water. Although i lost 4 lbs i did suffer for the rest of the evening. I had a very bad headache and felt really dizzy and faint. So i am not doing that again.
Also on friday evening i had acid reflux extremaly bad and i couldn't even sleep because of it. It was so painful and i just wanted to throw up. I think i had it because i had no packs to get me through the day and so i was having bits of steamed chicken through the day instead. I didnt take anything for it either because i dont know if i can on this diet. I should really find out.
I also had it yesterday after i had my small meal ( i am on AAM week). It wasn't as bad though and was gone in about an hour. But now i am not really looking forward to my meals because i keep thinking i will experience this pain again.
So i am abit worried about getting it tonight after my meal. I hope i dont because it is so painful :(.
Anway, apart from that things have gone ok. I had to live of steamed chicken on friday because i didnt manage to get any packs off my CDC. It was ok, i didnt really feel that hungry. I managed about 3.5 litres on friday too.
Yesterday i had about 3 litres i think which is not bad. So far today i have had 2.5 litres. I am trying to drink another litre right now but the water just tastes awful. So i will try get another .5 litres in before the end of the day.
So as you can see i aint really been drinking my 4 litres a day, so i have to pick it up from tmrw. Weekends are always bad though because i wake up so late and i never have the time to fit it all in.
Also,this week i am now living off 2 Choc Mint milkshakes for breakfast and dinner and a Choc milkshake for lunch. They are the only flavours i can stomach.
Neway i best go, i have to go make my meal. xx

Cambridge Diet - Day 29
Ok, its its been a while since i posted. I really should keep more up to date with these things but i just haven't had the time or the energy.
This past CD week has been crazy. First i was having trouble with eatin all my packs because i either spilt my morning milkshakes or i couldnt stand the taste of my choc bars anymore and couldn't finish them. Some days i was out all day and forgot to even finish my choc bars.
But i have ben a good girl since monday and have had all 3 of my food packs.
I do have a big problem though. The other day I realised that my CDC didnt give me enough food packs and i dont have any for friday. So i organised to pick them up yesterday, but no1 was there because i was 5 mins late and they left! How crap was that! I need these packs so they could have hung on for me!! I really dont like my CDC so i am thinking of changing after my AAM week. It also takes me about 15 mins to get to my CDC and i have to wait for a lift, so it is all just too much hassle. I need to find one that lives closer.
Anyway, apart from that things have been ok. I dont know what i am doing about friday. I will contact CDC tmrw and see if i can come pick ip my packs. If i cant then i will have to have some steamed chicken or something on friday instead.
I have done ok with my water. Over the weekend i only managed between 2.3 - 3 litres, because i was getting up really late and could not fit it all in. But Monday i had 3.5 litres, Tuesday i had 4 litres and today i have had 4 litres, so i am doin ok.
I have a sociology test on friday that i have been revisiong for. I dont understand soicology so i find it difficult. But i'm not too bothered about the test. I also have a maths test but i might ask if i can do it next week because i dont understand some stuff.
I have finidhed my university applications and i am waiting to hear from Derby and Wolverhampton. I think i am going to go Derby but i am not sure. I might go Derby over half term to have a look around and see if i like it.
Ermmmm, i think thats it really. AAM week starts on saturday and i am abit nervous about it, but i'm also looking forward to eating some food. I just hope it doesnt stimulate my hunger and make me really hungry. Still not exercising, but should be in 2 weeks time :).
I'll finish there because i have to go now.
Bye xXx

Cambridge Diet - Day 24
I dont know what happened to day 22 and 23. I havent really been in the mood to blog. I havent been doin to well with the water for the past few days. I think on Wednesday and Thursday I managed 3.5 litres and today I only managed 2.5 litres!! Shocking!!!!. Today i woke up late and i was out for most of the day, so i didnt get the chance to drink much water. I didnt want to keep running to the toilet so i kinda got angry and refused to have any water.
I really hope it doesnt affect my weight loss much. Yesterday, i didnt drink much because i was depressed for most of the day and spent most of the day in bed. Then i managed to get up and tried to drink as much a i could.
Tomorrow i am aiming for 4 - 4.5 litres and the 5 litres the next day.
I have also been strugglin with my sachests and bars. Yesterday i ended up spilling my morning milkshake and so had nothing. I also only had half of my peanut bar because it was making me sick. I enjoyed my evening choc mint shake though.
Today i only had half of my morning milskshake because it was makin me feel sick and then only 2/3 or my bar because i went out and forgot to take it with me. I had my choc mint shake late aswell.
Tomorrow i am going to try harder to keep on track with eveything.
Anyway, i have to go now, so will try to blog tmrw :) xx

Cambridge Diet - Day 21 (Weigh-In)
Yesterday i had my weigh in and guess what?? I LOST 3 LBS!!! I was so happy. I didnt think i was going to lose any weight this week and i was sooo miserable in the car on the way to get weighed. I was hopin all week for a minimum loss of 3 lbs and when she told me i was sooo happy. The weightloss could have been because i just finished TOTM and lost all that excess water but i think it was because of the little extra cals in the bars stimulating my metabolism a little more.
So that is 10lbs in 3 weeks. I really want to lose 4 lbs next week to make it a stone loss this month. I dont think i will but i will try add some exercise and drink more water. I am feeling abit down thinking about next month though. I just have this feeling that i will not lose a stone because i wont have a high loss like i did in the first week. But i'll try lose as much as i can and try be more positive. I really do not want to do the diet more then 4 months though.
I have my weigh in on Friday next week because my CDC is not here on my usual weigh-in day. So i have 3 extra days to lose more pounds, i really have to work hard.
Anyway, i have work to do. I will try post later tonight about how my day has gone.

Cambridge Diet - Day 19/20
Yesterday was like the most boring day ever. The weather was soooo awful, it just rained and rained and rained. It was so depressing. Didnt do much, just stayed home, watched tv and cooked for everyone. It was just one of those days were the family was at home.
I still woke up late though, so really struggled to get my water in. I managed 4 litres which is ok. Didnt exercise because i didnt want to go out in the horrible weather. Some family came round though so that was nice.
Yesterday i had:
Choc milkshake
Toffee choc bar ( really couldnt finish this, it started to make me feel sick)
Choc mint milkshake ( i accidently spilt this and only had a little and was very tired at the end of the day)
+ 4 litres of water
Today has been better, the weather aint been too bad so went out for abit. Still woke up late though, realy have to sort that out. Didnt do much exercise either. I am in the process of sorting the gym out :). Really should have filled in my applications for university today and sent them off but i haven't!! I dont know why. I managed 4.5 litres today which is ok. I also cooked for everyone which was really nice. I am starting to notice that i have more energy. I just want to keep busy all the time.
Today i have had:
Choc milkshake
Chcoclate bar
Choc mint milkshake
+ 4.5 litres of water
Anyway, i'm going to go now. I am getting a very bad headache from looking at the screen. xx

Cambridge Diet - Day 18
I'm going to make this quick because i am very tired and i have a headache. I really want to go to bed. Anyway, today has been boring. I woke up very late and so didn't start my sachets/meal bar until afternoon time. I also had to get in as much water as possible. I managed 4 litres which is pretty good. I also wanted to do some exercise today but i didn't get the time. I spent most of the day doing college work and university applications. I so cant wait to finish college next month :)
Today i have had:
Chocolate milkshake ( about 12pmish)
Peanut Choc Bar (from 2:30pmish)
Choc Mint milkshake (about 9pmish)
+ 4 litres of water.
I'm going to try and get up earlier tomorrow and get more water in and have my meals before 7pm. I also have to do some exercise.
I was feeling abit low today because i keep thinking i will be having low losses for weeks to come. I know that is wrong of me to think but i really want to lose a stone a month and have Sole Source over before i start university in September. I will need food to concentrate on my studies. I also really want to lose more weight sooner because i want to feel comfortable to go to the gym and do more aerobics/spinning classes, so basically i am just getting impatient, lol.
So to feel better i have been looking at before and after pictures of the contestants from 'The Biggest Loser' (USA). I find their weightloss so motivational and inspiring. It makes me cry sometimes because it is such an emotional journey to lose weight and you know exactly what they have gone through, all the feelings and emotions. You also feel so proud of them for reaching their goals. I really like how they get there bodies all toned and work on muscle definition as well as weight loss. I really want to lose my weight and then start toning up, especially my arms. I really want an athletic body.
Anyway, I'm going to bed now. I am starting to feel hungry. Goodnight xx :)

Cambridge Diet - Day 16/17
I couldn't be bothered to post last night. Left all my college work too late so spent ages doing my work and then just wanted to go sleep.
Yesterday went fine. I managed 4.5 litres of water i think or was it 5 litres?? I forgot, lol. I spent most of the day trying to get my university sorted before september. I'v had to apply again because i want to study part time and it has been a nightmare trying to find a university that offers my course as flexible as i need it. But nearly there now. My decision is between Derby University and Wolverhampton (walsall campus) University. If anyone has any comments about either univeristy or the city that would be fab. I am having trouble deciding where to go :(
Anyway, yesterday i had:
Chocolate milkshake
1/4 Toffee meal bar (snack)
1/2 Tofee meal bar
1/4 Toffee meal bar (snack)
Choc mint milkshake
+ 4.5 litres of water (maybe more, lol).
The toffee bar was ok. It tasted nicer after it had been in the fridge for a while.
Today: Been at college most of the day so been gettin on with my work. I woke up late and didnt have time for my milkshake so i had a bite of my bar and had milkshake on my break bout half 10ish. Sometimes i find that after college i have a really bad headache and i feel so tired because i really have to concentrate in my lessons, especially in psychology where i am making notes non stop. I dont mind though.
I really want to start exercising soon. I am waiting for TOTM to pass so i can start swimming and i also need to get the gym sorted. But i wll need a new top and bottoms because my old ones dont fit me, they're too big :) ( i'm losing inches people, yay). So cant wait for the exercise to kick in.
Another thing i have notice this week is that my periods have been really light because of all the water i have been drinking. I hope this is normal and everyone (females obviousley) who drink so much water on the diet have experienced this when its TOTM.
Anyway, today i have had:
1/4 of chocolate meal bar ( 9amish)
Chocolate milkshake (10:30amish)
1/2 Chocolate meal bar (1pmish)
1/4 chocolate meal bar (3:30pmish)
Choc Mint milkshake (7pmish)
+ 4.5 Litres of water
Chocolate tasted much better after it had been in the fridge too.( I am getting abit sick of all this chocoalte though, lol)
As you can see i am getting better with the water :). But i was discussing this with a friend because i was moaning about my low weight losses and she thought that i should aim for 6 pints of water throughout the day ( instead of 4-5 litres)because maybe my body is holding onto all the water i am drinking because i just stated drinking more and its not normal for my body. So i am losing less weight?? I have no idea if this is true but i am abit too scared to drink less now incase i have another low loss. I'm just going to stick to around 4-5 litres and see how that works out.
Anyway, Ugly Betty is on so i have to go. xx
ps i really have no idea why i cant change the colour of my font etc ??? It looks too boring now :(

Cambridge Diet - Day 14 (WI) / Day 15
I couldnt post last night because my internet went bust, so i'm going to post now before i forget and my stupid internet decides to be annoying.
Yesterday was horrible, especially last night after my weigh in. I was ok all day and i was expecting a low loss this week because i was due on my period and i knew i would be retaining water. I lost 2 lbs last night, which is ok but not great. But after i got weighed yesterday i was really really low and started crying (at home). I felt really upset because i thought the diet wasnt going to work out for me and i might only see losses of 1 lb a week which is not worth sacrificing all your food. I was talking to my CDC at my WI and she said that she hasnt seen weightloss like mine before and her other clients lose alot more (i think she still thinks i am cheating when i am most certainley not). She said that if the diet isn't working for me then i can quit and she'll buy any of my unused packs off me. This really upset me because i have tried everything else to lose weight and i thought CD would finally help me lose weight and be happy again.
But we did discuss a few things at the WI and we thought my low weightloss could be due to a slow metabolism. I have been on many medications and i know it has affected my metabolism, especially over the last 2 years when i got unwell.
So we decided that i would stick with SS for the next 2 weeks and then do the AAM week. If in that week i lose more weight (the extra cals might stimulate my metabolism more) then i can move onto the 790 plan. I was pretty happy with this so i'm just going to see things through.
But i did nearly quit last night because i was so upset and didnt think it was worth it. I really wanted something to eat. But i spoke to my mum and she said i should stick with it, so thats what i am doing. My clothes are big gor me now so i am losing inches so as long as i lose inches i am happy. But i did cry so much last night until my eyes went puffy and sore. I think because i was due on it made me more emotional and made things seem much worse then they were.
I also managed 5 litres yesterday :)
Today has not been too bad. I have started my choc meal bars today, so i have one of them instead of a milkshake. I had peanut today which was ok. I split it into 3 pieces so that i hard 1 large piece for lunch and 2 small peices for snacks. I thought it might help with my metabolism,
I have had killer period pains today though. Since 3am this morning i have been dieing of pain. I decided to take a painkiller at about 9am. After that things have been ok. I think the meals bars might be giving me the shits though, i'm not sure, i'l have to check it out.
But today i have had:
Chocolate milkshake - 9am
Little piece of peanut choc meal bar (snack) - 11 am
Big piece of peanut choc meal bar - 1 pm
Little piece of peanut meal bar (snack)- 3pm
Choc mint milkshake - 6pm
+ 5 litres of water :) :) :)
I have also done a ketosis test and i am still in ktosis :)
I'm going to try and avoid the kitchen tonight because i think the family are having kebabs. If i feel upto it i might offer to help.
Got to go now, bye xx
ps i dont know why i cant change the colour of the text on this post, there are no options for this ??? Strange!
Yesterday was horrible, especially last night after my weigh in. I was ok all day and i was expecting a low loss this week because i was due on my period and i knew i would be retaining water. I lost 2 lbs last night, which is ok but not great. But after i got weighed yesterday i was really really low and started crying (at home). I felt really upset because i thought the diet wasnt going to work out for me and i might only see losses of 1 lb a week which is not worth sacrificing all your food. I was talking to my CDC at my WI and she said that she hasnt seen weightloss like mine before and her other clients lose alot more (i think she still thinks i am cheating when i am most certainley not). She said that if the diet isn't working for me then i can quit and she'll buy any of my unused packs off me. This really upset me because i have tried everything else to lose weight and i thought CD would finally help me lose weight and be happy again.
But we did discuss a few things at the WI and we thought my low weightloss could be due to a slow metabolism. I have been on many medications and i know it has affected my metabolism, especially over the last 2 years when i got unwell.
So we decided that i would stick with SS for the next 2 weeks and then do the AAM week. If in that week i lose more weight (the extra cals might stimulate my metabolism more) then i can move onto the 790 plan. I was pretty happy with this so i'm just going to see things through.
But i did nearly quit last night because i was so upset and didnt think it was worth it. I really wanted something to eat. But i spoke to my mum and she said i should stick with it, so thats what i am doing. My clothes are big gor me now so i am losing inches so as long as i lose inches i am happy. But i did cry so much last night until my eyes went puffy and sore. I think because i was due on it made me more emotional and made things seem much worse then they were.
I also managed 5 litres yesterday :)
Today has not been too bad. I have started my choc meal bars today, so i have one of them instead of a milkshake. I had peanut today which was ok. I split it into 3 pieces so that i hard 1 large piece for lunch and 2 small peices for snacks. I thought it might help with my metabolism,
I have had killer period pains today though. Since 3am this morning i have been dieing of pain. I decided to take a painkiller at about 9am. After that things have been ok. I think the meals bars might be giving me the shits though, i'm not sure, i'l have to check it out.
But today i have had:
Chocolate milkshake - 9am
Little piece of peanut choc meal bar (snack) - 11 am
Big piece of peanut choc meal bar - 1 pm
Little piece of peanut meal bar (snack)- 3pm
Choc mint milkshake - 6pm
+ 5 litres of water :) :) :)
I have also done a ketosis test and i am still in ktosis :)
I'm going to try and avoid the kitchen tonight because i think the family are having kebabs. If i feel upto it i might offer to help.
Got to go now, bye xx

Cambridge Diet - Day 13
I want to start off by saying how awful my day was yesterday. Its nearly TOTM for me and i was so emotional yesterday. I was crying my eyes out 1 min and then being a complete bitch and biting everyones head off the next. I feel so sorry for my family. I think being on CD is making me extra sensitive during TOTM. I cant wait till TOTM is over.
I thought i would mention that i managed to drink 4 Litres yesterday too :)
Today has been very very very boring. Just lazed around all day and managed to get alittle college work done. I did get abit dizzy at lunch, dont know why.
Today i have had my usual milkshakes + 4.5 litres of water. I wanted to get 5 litres in but i just couldnt. I have my weigh in tmrw, really nervous.
I have to go out for a min, brb. To be continued ....
continued...... I dont really think i have anything else to say. I managed to resist takeaway tonight as my family are sat happily munching downstairs (i am getting good at this, lol). I plan on making some choc mint truffles in the morning so i can snack on them throughout the day and keep my metabolism up. I have had a few chest pains this week which have been worrying me. But after some good advice from the lovely people at minimins i feel better and i will see my CDC about it and then make an appointment wth my GP.
Speak to you tmrw xx

Cambridge DIet - Days 10/11/12
I really haven't had much time to blog recently. I have been busy with things at home and college work and i have also been falling asleep early. The diet does make you really tired. So i'll fill you in now.
Friday: Went well. I was at college most of the day so the day past pretty quick. I did have to keep rushing to the loo though which is really annoying me now because everyone thinks i'm wierd. But i dont mind that much because soon i will super slim. I had the same three shakes as i always do ( they are the only ones i like) but i had my last one late again, as usual. I also managed 3 litres of water, which i was happy with.
Saturday: Super busy today. Family had a wedding to go to so there was alot of helping with getting ready, hair, make-up, clothes etc. I didnt go though. I haven't been to a wedding in along time, especially since gaining weight. We also had visitors round which kept us busy for a while. But the evening was nice. We just chilled out and then i cooked for my brothers and sisters which i really enjoyed. It takes the hunger and cravings away. I also managed 3.5 litres yesterday too :)
Today: It has gone ok so far. Woke up late so had my milshake late. I also found another reason for why i feel like eating emotionally so i will be noting that in my food mood diary :). I have been a little worried this morning because i keep getting chest pains and i dont know if its because of SSing. I am hoping that they will pass and i can continue with SS because i am coping well with it. If i have to, i thought i will move upto the 790 plan. I am going to let my CDC know about the pains and see my GP if i have too.
Anyway, i have to go because i have to do the housework and then maybe go shopping for a swimming costume because i want to start swimming. I have had 1.5 litres so far today and hope to drink at least 3 litres.

Cambridge Diet - Day 8/9
Had no time to post last night, so i will make up for it now.
Yesterday went well, i didnt do much in the day but in the evening i made lots of food for my family and got such a buzz from it. I dont know what it was but because i cant have any food and i have to stay away from it, just doing something with food like cooking it is so enjoyable. I also think its nice to feel in control over your food when you're cooking it and you have the strength to not eat it. I might cook something tonight :).
I wasnt very hungry yesterday, just had cravings here and there. Yesterday i had the same milkshakes as today at roughly the same times.
Today has been so much more difficult. I have been hungry most of the day and really craving food. It constantly smells of gorgeous food in my house and so theres so much temptation. I just try to get on with my college work and ignore it.
Earlier this evening at 6ish i took a nap because i really wanted some fried food and i felt like crying. From being unhealthy and having takeaway 3-4 times a week to giving it up is very hard. But i need to change my eating patterns and i am hoping after a few weeks i wont ever want any take away again, lol.
So today i have had:
Chocolate milkshake ( 8am)
Starwberry milkshake (2:30 pm)
Choc Mint Milkshake (6:30pm)
+ 4 litres of water :)
Sorry for the boring 'what i had today' stuff but i just want a record of everything just incase i have a problem on the diet and i need to look back.
I saw an old friend today, it was so nice running into her. Even though we dont see each other often, whenever we chat its like we have been chattting for ages and we can just pick up from where we left off before. We were chillin in her new car today which was cool. She has a poledancing business opening up soon, how cool is that. Will defo be booking some lessons after the weight comes off, lol.
Anyway, i have maths homework to do for tmrw, so i gota go!!

Cambridge Diet - Day 7: Weigh-in
I had my week 1 weigh-in a few hours ago and i have lost 5 lbs. I'm not super duper happy about it, infact i feel abit low. I really wanted a 7+lbs loss.
My CDC said that the expected weightloss in the first week is 7+ lbs and asked if i had stuck to just the 3 sachets a day. Errr of course i had, i have been so good and resited everything!!!
So she said that it could have been fluid retention or stress and that i shouldnt worry about it. I might even lose more next week, but i seriously doubt it. I think i will prob lose 3/4 lbs maybe.
I also tried to measure myself to see if i had lost any inches but i was coming up with bigger measurements than last week so i just left it.
So today i have had:
Strawberry milkshake (9amish) - this was lovely
Chocolate Mint milkshake (3pmish) - 1st time trying this and it was really nice
Fruits of the Forest Milkshake ( 9pmish) - 1st time trying this too but i did not like it at all, SO HALF WENT DOWN THE SINK
+ 4 Litres ( i thought maybe the increased water intake could be causeing water retention?? I dont know!!)
The rest of the day has been ok. Been trying to get an essay done, nowhere near finished though.
I'm still feeling abit shitty but will prob feel better tmrw. I guess 5lbs is a good start.
Think i might get into bed for abit. Family are eating downstairs too so need to resist, especially because i'm feeling so shitty and want to eat something.

Today has been such a struggle for me. I have been craving food all day and have been in a really low mood this afternoon. I havn't managed to get uni sorted either, which is stressin me out.
I really wanted to quit the diet today. I was a little down because my scales weren't showing much loss and i thought that there is no point for me to be on this diet if i dont lose my stone a month. But i know i wont be able lose my weight any other way and even though it dont show much weightloss on my scales it will show in inches!!
Nothing much gone on today. Tried to do my essay but felt low so went back to bed for abit. I'm gona have a nice bubble bath inamin to pass some time and to prevent going downsatirs because family are having gorgeous kebabs tonight, mmmmm yum yum. I can smell them now!!
I know i am going to get very hungry tonight because i had to throw half my banana milkshake down the sink because it almost made me puke. It just tases like the nasty soups.
Today has consited of :
Chocolate milkshae (9am) - very nice with extra water
Strawbery milkshake (2pm) - very nice
Banana milkshake (8:30 pm) - HALF WENT DOWN THE SINK
+ 5 litres of water!!!!! I dont know how i managed this but i did. I dont think i will be able to drink as much tmrw because i have to go out.
Weing- In tmrw people, very very nervous. I really want a 7+ lbs loss, but i think it'l only be bout 4ish lbs :(. But i gota stay Positive!!

Cambridge Diet - Day 5
I managed 3 litres today which i am very proud of. I was trying to get 4 litres in today but i started to get lower back pain where my kidneys are after drinking about 1 litre in under an hour. Big mistake people. The pains went after a few trips to the loo. So tmrw, i am going to try and drink continuosly throughout the day and not all at once.
I have also been really bad with my milkshakes today. I did have all 3 but because i was not that hungry i kept forgeting to have them and left too much time between them ( i keep doing that!!).
I have been a little hungry though. Left over pizza from last night looked so tempting, mmmm. I had a long smell of it and then went for a walk to make the cravings go away.
I'm really missin my food. Fish and chips with mushy peas, fishcakes and crisps :'( . I had a lil cry last night to a friend on the phone because i really wanted to taste some good food. I think i was feeling abit low. I been bit abit snappy today aswell.
So today went like this:
Banana milkshake (10:15am) - really starting to hate this flavour, its giving me the sick feeling i was getting from the soups, ergh, makes me wana puke, bleh.
Strawberry milkshake (5pm) - I know i had this way to late today but it taste lovely
Chocolate milkshake (8:45pm) - i made this funny today because i was a bit light headed and didnt know what i was doing, lol. But i added abit of extra water and it didnt taste so nasty.
+ 3 litres
I guess i'm going to have to work out set times to have my milkshakes, i think the weekend messed it up abit. I gota work out how to drink 4 litres aswell.
Just finished watching 'It's a Boy Girl Thing' on DVD and really enjoyed it. I definately reccomend it!! Anyway, i'm going to bed now, so tired.
Thank you for the lovely comments. I will defo have a read of your blogs and see how you are doing.
Goodnight

Cambridge Diet - Day 4
I did my ketosis test this morning as soon as i woke up and it was a deep purple colour. So i am in Ketosis now but i am alittle dehydrated, so i will have to drink more water.
Today has gone well, i woke up early but i wanted a lye in, so i fell asleep again even though i was starving and had terrible hunger pains. I didnt do much today and i wasn't very hungry. The house smelt really nice though because mum was cooking, so i went for a walk to resist.
I also managed to see my counsellor to swap my soups for milkshakes so i was happy about that. I also asked her how much water i should be drinking and she said 4 pints, so i have been drinking just about enough. I am going to try increase my water to 4 litres tho. I went shopping today and i got 2 2litre bottles of water and 1 1litre bottle, so i am all prepared. I also managed to look around the whole supermarket and did not feel tempted at all, lol.
Today i had:
Strawberry milkshake (10:35pm)
Chocolate milkshake (3:30pm)
Strawberry milkshake (8:30pm)
+ 5 pints of water :)
I have to go now so will try to post tomorow

Cambridge Diet - Day 3
I am going to make this quick because i am not feeling too good. I think my body is going into Ketosis, well i hope it is :)
Today has been ok, i was at college for most of the day and got really annoyed with having to be excused to go to the loo, i bet everyone thinks i'm weird, or i have a bladder problem or something, lol.
My milkshakes have been nice today, but i only had half a pint with each one because i didnt want to be going to the toilet too much when at college. I drank loads when i cam home though.
So today i have had:
Vanilla milkshake (7:45am) - dont like it too much
Strawberry milkshak (12:45pm) - i really like this flavour
Banana milkshake (7:45pm) - This is usually my favourite but it tasted weird today, it tasted like the soups, ergh.
+ 4.5 pints of water (which i am very proud of).
But i have been told today that i should be drinking 4 litres?? I thought the minimum was 4 pints so I am going to have to check this out with my CDC. I also have to see her to swap my soups for milkshakes, but she aint got back to me, which is pissing me off now because i only have enough milkshakes to last me to sunday night.
College was ok today. My exam went well. I have an essay due in for 2 weeks time and i can relax for a bit because i have about a month untill my next examss, so things all goody.
Tmrw i am going to use my ketosis sticks to see if am in ketosis, i cant wait, hehe. I dont know if i should check in the morning or at night?? I'll figure something out. I'm hoping i am in ketosis because my breath stinks of shit and i have a horrible taste in my mouth.
Anyway, i best be going.
Au'revoir xx Mwah xx

Cambridge Diet - Day 2
I thought i would post about my day now because i have loads of revision to do tonight and i want an early night.
Today has gone well again. I woke up really not looking forward to my sachets because the taste of last nights soup was so vile i could still taste it in my mouth.
But i really enjoyed my morning strawberry shake. I still had to drink it with alternating sips of water but it was surprisingly really nice. My lunch soup did not go so well. I felt sick just by the smell of it. It was the chili one, ergh , it was vile. It ended up down the sink and i had a banana milkshake instead. It was sooo nice. I think it is my favourite so far.
So because the soups taste so disgusting, i have decided that i am going to swap the rest of my soups for the week for milkshakes. I left a message with my CD Counsellor and just have to wait for her to get back to me.
I think i will be in ketosis soon because my breath stinks of shyt and i have a horrible taste in my mouth. So bring on the ketosis and weight loss, whoop whoop. ( Sorry just really looking forward to seeing some lbs fall off).
So today i have had:
Strawberry milkshake (7:45pm)
Chili Soup - WENT DOWN THE SINK, I COULD NOT DRINK IT AT ALL.
Banana Milkshake (2pmish)
+ 2.5 pints of water
I am going to have a chocolate milkshake + 1 pint of water as soon as i finish typing this.
I think i am leaving too much time between my sachets, i think tmrw i will try to not spread them out as much.
I will have had 3.5 pints of water today which aint bad. I might even make it 4 pints. But rushing to the loo all the time is really annoying me now.
Today has generally been a good day. I went to all my appointments, got a little revision done and i have nearly sorted out university for september. But i have to wait untill next week to get it all finalised.
I thought i would mention that i have been really craving take away food today. Its not really been hunger, i just really want some chicken and chips, lol. But it doesnt take long for the cravings to pass.
I have to go now, i need my milkshake.

I thought i would mention that i have been really craving take away food today. Its not really been hunger, i just really want some chicken and chips, lol. But it doesnt take long for the cravings to pass.
I have to go now, i need my milkshake.

Cambridge Diet - Day 1
My first day on the cambridge diet is nearly over and i have to say that i think it has gone really well. I stuck to my 3 sachets with no cheating and i had about 3 pints and 8 oz of water, so nearly 4 pints there.
The only crap thing about today was the horrible sick feeling i got when trying to drink my milkshakes/soups. I found it difficult to finish them because i kept feeling sick and nearly puked a few times. The only way i could have them was to alternate sips of milkshake/soup with water. Because of this i got through about a pint of water at each meal, which i guess is a bonus as it made drinking more water alot easier.
I think the sick feeling may have been due to the concentrated minerals and vitamins in the diet. I guess my body aint used to getting all its nutrients. I am hoping this was the cause and that i will be better in a few days. Otherwise this diet is going to be a real struggle if it tastes nasty. I'm not really looking forward to tmrws sachets, but i will be glad when day 2 is over.
I didnt do much else today. Went shopping and got a new handheld blender thing and then revised loads. I felt ok today, I had no problems concentrating and only had alilttle headache at about 9ish. I just plan to drink lots of water to keep the side effects away.
I hope the rest of the week goes well. I am not looking forward to the carb withdrawal symptoms and me turning into a complete bitch as the diet affects my mood. I have given plenty of warning to those around me tho, so hopefully i won't cause too much damage.
So today i had:
Chocolate milkshake (9a.m) - felt really sick
Vanilla milkshake (1:20p.mish) - was nicer then i expected
Vegetable soup (7:30pm) - could not finish it all, almost made me throw up
+ 3 pints 8 oz
I also got a disposable camera today to take photos every week to see how my body changes. I might post them on here but i'l probably do it at the end of my programmme when i'm looking gorjus ;) and not so embarrassed about my how i look now.
Anyway, i think i'm going to have an early night, i feel abit tired. I will try find some time to post again tomorrow!
Good Night xxxx
