Cambridge Weight Plan Buddies...?
Hi, anyone else doing this diet please add me as a friend. I'm starting it again tomorrow. I did it a few months ago for a month straight and lost 1st 4lbs.... but then thought I'd give Slim & Save a shot as it was so much cheaper. Failed at that one though as the food was disgusting.... so back to my trusty Cambridge…

Pregnant & need to eat better!
So I'm taking the advice of my doctor & midwife and I'm now going to be watching what I eat instead of just eating whatever the hell I want because "hey I'm pregnant!" Being clinically "obese", I have a calorie target of around 1620-1800 calls per day - even whilst pregnant. (If I hear anymore diet police go on about how…

Day one of Cambridge Diet (VLCD)
Today is my first day. I'm buzzing with excitement at the possible results. I know the hardest part is the first 3-5 days until my body goes into ketosis. I seem to have plenty of motivation right now! I chose this diet as the idea of having to come off it really slowly to prevent me from gaining the weight back really…

Eating Disorder Support
I would like to make more friends with other people who have negative thoughts / feelings about food who is also in recovery. Add me if you like. On a foot note: I've read a lot of people being negative towards people on here with ED's. To those people: it's in no way as black or white as that! Keeping a food diary with my…

I need low carb breakfast ideas! Help!
All the low carb breakfast ideas of seen so far require cooking. Unfortunately I start work at 8am which involves a bit of a commute, so I have to get up at 6:30am as it is - not really much time to make eggs or bacon before I leave! Plus I don't want to stink out the office with pre made eggs. What can I have? I'm stumped…

Anyone tried hypnotherapy for weight loss?
Did it work for you? I'm looking into it for myself, specifically a "hypno-band". I've tried the old fashioned diet and exercise now for a long time and I just need a bit more help.... More that what MFP alone can offer (sorry). I thought about the hypno band to help with my portion size and snacking - which are the two…

How much will this plan help me?
I'm going to attend body combat classes 4 times a week for 60 minutes a time. I don't have a heart rate monitor yet so I have no idea how many calories i'll be burning. Will this have much of an impact on weight loss as opposed to being a sedentary couch potato but still dieting? I know it will affect my fitness levels,…

Am I just lazy...??
One of the main reasons I am overweight is because exercise to me is like that film Cool Runnings - the Jamaican Bob Sled team - it just doesn't happen!! Whilst I would love for this to change, I find I can't seem to break out of my cycle of starting a new fitness idea - and then quitting before I see any sort of results.…
