Cambridge diet!

Hey guys…Has anyone tried this very low calorie diet? I’ve just started, would be good to group up and support each other…!

I tried the porridge this morning..it was so pukey, got through half…drinking loads of water and black coffee, feeling pretty fine so far!

currently 11 stones, would like to lose 2 stones and then maintain…ill post my losses every week.

Who wants to join me?

Re: Cambridge diet!

Please details, I want to do a low carb diet too.

I got this breakfast recipe from an institute bought the things and will try it out tomorrow.

Re: Cambridge diet!

I have done this, lost around 3 stones in just over 3 months, if things get tooo tough u can cheat, sneak in a piece of chicken/ meat or egg here and there, it doesn't make much of a difference, the apple porridge and maple porridge is the nicest tasting, as for milkshakes, choc, choc mint and the occasional strawberry here and there, stay away from the soups, a year later and even now when I even think about the taste I feel a lil nauseous! but this I guess depends on ur tastebuds and stuff. Get the water flavours, the summer fruits one is rather nice and lasts long too, the key to this diet is water I guess, don't drink too much cz u will jst feel like a bloated balloon all day long, max 3 litres I drank, weights fairly easy to maintain afterwards u don't have much of an appetite after u come off it, but try and do it only for a few months to kick start ur weight loss, its not worth it in the long run

Re: Cambridge diet!

my sister did it,and lost huge amounts of weight that she had accummulated during the 2 consecutive years she was pregnant. she is now back to her size pre pregnancy and has kept it for the last 2 years

Re: Cambridge diet!

so what is the diet? what food can you eat and cannot eat?

Re: Cambridge diet!

no food, its a meal replacement diet, the company provides u with either shakes, soups or porridges.

Re: Cambridge diet!

I Am In!

I weigh around 67 now, Come down to 60 at least.

Tell me whats the die?

Re: Cambridge diet!

im eating a protien breakfast - eggs, black coffee

a shake for lunch and a protien dinner, veg and meat/fish

its going well!! couldnt do the full 3 replacements as firstly its expensive, 42 quid a month, secondly the stuff tastes nasty!!!

hina google the cambridge diet, find it in your area, then contact them to get weighed measured and then buy the products. They will give you a meal plan too..

Re: Cambridge diet!

Instead of the shakes try yoghurt... And do add nuts to ur diet

I lost 10 kg bfore my wedding ...but i turned it to an version of my own with the help of the personal fitness coach

My eat schedule for a day was:

Breakfast:
7.00 am
Yoghurt/boiled egg
Apple
Tea without suger
Hand full of nuts

"snack" 10.00 am
1/2orange

12.00 lunch:
Chicken breast boiled with a bit bit black pepper with iceberg salad a bit lemon and some nuts if u like

Instead of chicken u can use turkey aswell

15.00 pm snack
An apple/ pineapple

17.30/18.00
Chicken (with low quantity of cookin oil) (no rotii or rice)
Turkey on the grill
Or fish of the grill

Desert
Yoghurt
Or plain fruitchaat

20.00- 21.30 gym session

And if ur still hungrey u can have apeace of fruit or make fruit chaat (without the juice)

What absolutely helped me was makin a daily agenda of what i was gonn eat and what time

Am gonn start this diet again to lose some extra kg's till the wedding of my sis

If u ladies want...i can share a daily agenda of what to eat
And what exercizes i do (at home/at the gym)

Re: Cambridge diet!

Ps: drink more than 2 liters water a day:D

Re: Cambridge diet!

SweetLady, please post all of it..maybe start a new thread..how long did it take u to lose 10 kgs?

Re: Cambridge diet!

I tried the cambridge diet but the shakes badly upset my stomach..left me feeling weak!

Re: Cambridge diet!

It took me 2 months max...
i had the same thing with the shakes...thats the reason my personal coach made a new schedule for me

Sure i can post a daily eating schedule ...just pm me

Re: Cambridge diet!

I have a load of Optislim shakes I have been meaning to start taking properly.. They taste quite nice but I cant seem to get into the habit.. (the chocolate bars are absolutely rank tho.. if anyone wants them just pm me, I have a multipack lol)..

The Cambridge diet seems to work brilliantly for a lot of ppl but seeing Lauren Goodger and her 'results' put me off a bit :D

I'd like to lose 10 pounds..

Re: Cambridge diet!

OMG i BADLY need a diet plan too...Have been eating too many carbs since a year. I was 53kg at the time of wedding and am now 64 in 2 years:S But the problem is, if i dont eat rice, bread or roti i feel i havent eaten anything :(

Re: Cambridge diet!

where do u buy optislim from? and does it taste good? i brought some whey protein from an onliner retailer,warning to all, the most disgusting thing ive ever tasted

Re: Cambridge diet!

^Lloyds pharmacy or online..

I haven't tried all the flavours, just the shakes in choc mint, strawberry, vanilla + caramel.. The first three of those I thought tasted pretty good (esp the strawberry).. The caramel was ok for me but not as nice..

They do a few other flavours as well as soup etc.
