Hi there,
I'm new from South Africa. So glad I found this forum, the information on here is incredible! Dr Cohen should pay you for the free publicity!
I have 20kg's to lose. Did my bloods this morning, and hoping to start my diet on the 4th of April, I'm going to need all the support I can get.

Hello, I'm new from Singapore

I've started 3 weeks ago, and I need to loose 32kgs. This forum really inspires me to keep on going when I feel down...

I'm doing this so I could have better chance to conceive 2nd baby, as I was diagnosed with PCOS, and I have tough battles with various diets previously.

Let's all work towards our goals...

Hi Dee,

Hey, welcome to you !! As I figure you might have seen already, you have come to the right place.

And PCOS, schmcos - many others on here have succeeded when starting with PCOS - and some have finished with NO symptoms of it at all.

Did you know?

If not, do check out the PCOS thread - here:-

PCOS and related hormonal issues

And those results can be yours too, why not? Be sure to read reply #40 - if nothing else.....

Hi My Name is chrissy,
I will be starting Cohens on Wednesday. Can anyone give me some tips on starting and sticking to it.
I have 56 kgs to loss and need as much help to stay motivated as possible.

Cheers

[ERYNNE]

Hi Chrissy
Good on for you making the choice i started 13 days ago. I found the first week the hardest but the weight loss at the end of that week so propelled me to stick to this 100%. i feel amazing, never had so much energy. I have found this forum amazing and am alway on reading other stories when i have a moment of doubt. I can't wait till the new me is here. and i wont be letting it go..

Keep us updated

Happy Easter

Erynne

Hi Erynne, happy to hear things are going well for you. We have about the same amount of weight to lose and similar goals. I am still in my first week, but it would be great to keep in touch with someone at a similar stage.

[Anneteak]

Hi everyone, I've been reading a lot of posts over the last couple of days and been building the courage to join in.
I have been on the Dr Cohens plan before and lost around 28kgs. Over the Christmas period I have put 8 kilos back on again so am feeling pretty low and a bit of a failure.
I'm looking forward to getting back on my plan and joining in the forum.
Here I go again

[Never Give Up]

Hi Anneteak, don't feel a failure, you've come back! Plus losing 28kg in the first place is no failure, and putting on 8kg is a slip up There are alot of us back to move some of our gained weight, so dont' feel alone, you can do it,
have a great week, Lesley

[baileyrose]

Hi Anneteak, that is pretty much down to the kg what I - same weight loss initially and same weight gain over Christmas.

I am back and feeling so much better for it - it is absolutely the right thing to do - that 8kg will be gone before you know it. I am so glad I started back now and didn't wait till all the weight was back on.

Have a great day and keep in touch - love to know how you go.

[Anneteak]

Hello Lesley and Baileyrose,
Thank you for your kinds words looking at it that way is so much better than feeling down on myself. As you said Baileyrose I'm so glad I managed to stop at 8 kgs and not put all my weight on again.
I had my yoghurt for brekkie and am just about to have chicken salad for lunch. I feel so much better already.
Thank you Lesley I will never never never give up
