Mia You are so right. My Doctor takes blood test of me every 6 weeks and all my blood work comes out the same as if I was 30 yrs younger and I am 54. He keeps telling me to keep up with what I am doing that it is safe, good for me and giving me great results. Also my skin is healthier, and I heal faster when I get an injury. You have nothing to loose but weight, So do the Shake or the soup or the Oats. Read everything you can on the Cambridge Web site and have fun. Marvy --Previous Message-- : I want to point out that the Cambridge Diet is : in fact considered a SAFE diet. If you use : it as recommended, you will get ALL the : nutrition your body needs.

Hello Alexa! Working out won't slow down your weight loss. Muscles weigh more than fat though, so it can look like your loss is slowing down, but in the long run you will burn more fat because of the muscles. You should take if easy during the first 1-2 weeks. You may feel a bit weak and dizzy in the beginning but as soon as you are in ketosis you will get your energy back. You should not work out too hard though. I used different Workout DVDs at home and I walked, walked, walked. I believe some exercise during the diet is good to prepare you for the life after the diet... A more healthier and active life. Add some exercise little by little and you will finally see that it is a natural part of your daily life and something you will continue doing for the rest of your life. Good luck!! Mia. --Previous Message-- : Oh my gosh Mia, congratulations! I would love : to lose 70 or more lbs in the next 3 months. : I am a little confused about the exercise : though. Some people have told me not to : exercise on ss because it will slow me down : & cause weight loss to stall. Can you : tell me how much exercise you did during : those 3 months? A lot? I weigh 215 and would : like to weigh about 120-125. Please tell me : your secrets so I can achieve your success. : Thank you, Alexa : : --Previous Message-- : Yes, it is absolutely true, and the reason : why : I know that, is that I am the one who lost : 70lbs in 3 months. Like Marvy said, you have : to stick to the diet, no cheating... If you : decide to only use shakes and soups (SS), : then you need to know that the first days : are tough. But as soon as yout body reach : ketosis, and you start burning fat, you : won't feel any hunger anymore. Drink plenty : of water and walk to move your body. Walking : is a fantastic way of working out. Good : luck! Mia : : --Previous Message-- : I have been told by a friend that certain : women have lost these amounts on SS : cambridge: One woman 70 lbs in 3 months, one : woman 80 lbs in 91 days, one woman 95 lbs in : 4 1/2 months, one woman 50 lbs in 2 months, : a man lost 100 lbs in 100 days.

Back then I lived in Penn. in the mountains Potter County. and would run 6 miles on the trails. then when I got home I would stretch and exercise another hour and a half. One think I have learned is that Muscle burns fat faster then dieting and SSing. and you need to keep your muscle tone in shape. You need to start a good program of toning and walking or exercising in order to keep the weight off once you go off of SSing or it will come back on. It all works together. On the Web site they tell you to walk. and give you a program to use. On Ruthanns Goal Planner at the top of the page there is even a place for Exorcise Goal. So do not exercise. You have to be active. Print off the Goal Planner and look at it everyday. Hope this helps some. Marvy --Previous Message-- : Hi Marvy, I am so impressed with your loss of : 90 lbs in 3 months.

Hi Alexa, I lost 57 lbs in 12 weeks with Cambridge. The secret for me is to only eat my three shakes a day, plus all the water you should drink while on this diet. I walked 45 minutes 6 days a week. But, like I said, it has to be only CD to loose that fast, and also to make it through week one. It is the best weight loss tool I have ever came across. Good luck to you!
