Canbridge Diet - Day 45

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 :)
