[3stonetolose]

New to the Cambridge diet and as u can tell Im wanting to lose 3 stone...sure it doesn't sound like much but Im very petite so its a lot of weight!! All Ive done all day is wee and drink water...I can stop thinking about food even though I don't normally eat until late in the day!!! Lets hope it works cos I cant continue carrying this grosse flab around...Im totally looking forward to feeling like my old self again!! Feels like Ive lost my identity and cant even wear the clothes I like anymore...hopefully this is the start of a new era!!! Any tips would be greatly appreciated...Jude x

Hi 3STL! It's typical to start off a diet in which you start drinking more water with running to the bathroom, lol! It happens to all of us. Also, its not uncommon to be focused on food when you're dieting. After all, we have to be mindful, when before, we didn't give it much thought. We just ate what we wanted! I don't know anything about the Cambridge Diet other than, if I remember correctly, it alternates higher calorie days with very low calorie days. I know there are a few people here who do Intermittent Fasting and I think they do that too, so if you can't find anything on the Cambridge Diet specifically, maybe you can look in the IF forum (under the Diet Central section) for tips. Many of us here know the frustration you're describing--not feeling like yourself anymore, not being able to fit into clothes, etc.--and you will find lots of support to help you reach your goal! Good luck!
