cohen's diet

holy doly i just looked into the cohen's diet and it is $750 i nearly feel over i knew it sounded too good to be true :(
i want to get the bulk of my weight off so i can get back into exercising again. my knees get bad when i have weight on them.

Yeah...expensive but the best thing I ever did...a great investment...lost 20kg in just over 3 months...some Health insurance companies give you some money back too!

Ellie: was it easy to stick to?

You just have to be organised. I shopped once a week and went straight home and weighed everything and put into little plastic lock bags so it was easy during the week. The first few days are tough but once you're over that you don't even feel hungry. DH supported me by cooking his own meals so all I had to worry about was me and not being 'tempted'. Maybe just go to the first session where they tell you all the info and then decide. I found the people really supportive and felt that I got good value for money. Good luck!

well i sent my forms in and got my blood test on monday so now i just wait. bit nervous it cost so much but hopefully that will help me stick to it lol

well i started the diet today. going really well so far. i think the only thing that is going to get me is the natural yoghurt it tastes like crap lol

Yeah for you!!! The yoghurt actually starts to taste better...believe it or not!!! Just hang in there and stick to it ...really stick to it for the first few days and then you'll be fine...I'm here to support you all the way...you go girl!!!

Forgot to add my mantra..."Nothing tastes as good as slim"....chant it...over and over!!!

3 weeks and 8.6kgs down wooooooooooooo hooooooooooooooo :dance:

Fantastic! Gosh I remember how good that felt! You should be really proud of yourself...bet all your friends and family are blown away! Me...I'm now 2kg off the weight when I started at cohens...a bit depressing but hey...I'm pregnant so who's complaining...least I know what to do once bub's here. Keep me posted :)

7 weeks and 14.7kgs gone. woooo hoooo. only got 9.3 to go. cant wait to finish it. its starting to get a bit hard at the mo

That's fantastic! I might look into this. I've lost 30kg since having Emily, but the last 15kg is going to be really hard to move I think.

YIPPEE!!! Your losing it and I'm gaining it lol!!! I'm not even game to weigh myself! Bet you're feeling a milion bucks...good on you!

wow jodi how did u loose the 30kg.

:dunno: breastfeeding maybe?? I really have no idea. But now it's getting really hard to budge the rest.

I started Cohens in August last year. On the 28th September I had lost just over 20kgs and I found out I was pregnant so I had to stop. I have had a few stop starts since... but have just applied for my new program and I will be starting in 2 days time! I am sooooooo looking forward to shifting my weight for good.
Sassy... try your yogurt sweetened with a hermeseta tab mixed with some pureed mango (from your allowance)
There are cohen's forums too which are really helpful (if you've not found them already)
I am on there under the name of Jamanoha :)
Congrats on your weightloss to date... you must be feeling so proud of yourself! One thing I can say about Cohens is that it definitely works.
