Sole source plus newbie- buddies wanted

Hi all

I'm on day one of the Cambridge and new to this site also.

I did sole source about 2 years ago before I had my daughter and had a great result losing the 2 stone I was aiming for. Since the baby I've struggled to loose the weight again despite attempting all sorts of diets, so I'm back to the Cambridge.

I'm starting on sole source plus this time as I tried to restart ss but couldn't keep to it, so I'm hoping ss+ will be more realistic and easier for me to stick with.

Today was my first day and so far so good. Had a headache and felt light headed at around 6pm but the hunger has been manageable.

I was hoping for some success stories from anyone else that has done ss+ to help motivate me and also some buddies to keep in touch with along this journey to slimness

It's like reading my diet story lol I lost weight to get my family ( I needed help getting pregnant) and gained loads when I finally got pregnant, even more then I had lost. I also tried to get back on to SS and could not get my head in to it. Now I'm on day 8 and spent the first week saying to myself have your shakes first if your hungry have your + part of the diet. It worked for me I managed 5 days SS and added the meal twice. Since being introduced to CD I have lost 102lb and have the last 16lb to go. I can off the diet for a holiday and have not been able to get back on to it since, then last week I found this app and tried again I posted loads during the first few days.

Fingers crossed for your weight loss journey and hope your feeling well today.

Hiya

How have you got on? Day 3 for me now. I've stopped feeling sick but still a bit headachy now and then but not too bad. I've managed to stick to the diet without cheating but today I've thought about food for the whole day even though I've not been hungry! Also I've not been able to sleep the past two nights which has been strange!

Loads better today then yesterday thanks, yesterday I could and did eat just about everything in sight. Headaches are common with CD but I had a bit of a search on the net and drinking green tea helps so I'm now on 2 cups a day (it also speeds up your metabolism bonus)

Are you back on ss today? Thanks for the advice. I'm sitting here with a cup of green tea hoping it helps cuz my cravings are really bad today. I'm not even hungry thats the worse thing. I just want to eat! I think I'm going to watch big brother then go straight to sleep and feel sorry for myself lol

Yes back on SS plus one slice of ham lol I have another water, hope you feel better tomorrow and the green tea works for you
