DeDe23- i've noticed a decent reduction in breast size. I started Cohens in a size 14D/DD now I'm at 10D which is actually a decent reduction . I think the skin still needs to firm up with mine so its hard to tell what they'll look like once i'm done. But let me tell you running is no longer painful and i dont need to wear 2 bras when excercising!:)

Mine definitely reduced!!! I was 38C originally and now is more like 38B. I don't think I reduce the bustline 'coz when I was very very thin 10 yrs ago, its still 38.

In addition, my butt is not firm. Its so painful sitting down on hard surface nowadays. I need additional cushion when I go for meditation session. I have started doing leg kicks last night. I planned to do them every night and hope that they will enable me to firm up my butt.
 
Interested in Cohens

Hi Everyone

I haven't posted in the forums for ages, been so busy.

I am still trying to lose 10 Kgs and it has been very hard, no progress so far.

I am interested to know about Cohens.... is it a diet book? I stay in South Africa and I don't think that we have centres here.

Can anyone guide me? Perhaps provide me with the rules and sample eating plan?

Any assistance will be appreciated

Thanks

Laaiqahm :eek:
 
Netskiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

Hello Netskiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

Today's faces...

:mad: :confused: :eek: :cool: :rolleyes: :( :eek:

Why aren't you here to make me :p :) ???

Reasonable day today despite the stress going on (you know what I'm talking about) but all in all a positive day... completely agree with you about doing it with a friend... it sucks doing it alone! But being busy helps the most and not looking for distractions from the busy times such as 'eating'. I still need to work on finding a mechanism to deal with that. I have to say that being stuck in court helps the most because there is no food there... but that is not an everyday occurence and it can be embarrassing when your tummy grumbles so loudly that everyone turns and looks at you! Not the most professional look but we'll deal with that! Any suggestions on avoiding the search for a distraction?

Tomorrow is going to be a hard one, I'm going to be in a seminar all day... the challenges being thrown at me at the moment are amazing it seems each day I get a bigger or at least another challenge whether it is seminars or client functions etc... I think the universe is testing me to see if I really do want to lose the blubber! But... universe, if you're listening the answer is "YES! SO GIVE ME A BREAK AND MAKE THIS EASIER!"
 
fornight, is ur consultant peter? i called him juz now and asked about fybogel orange, he said it contains sugar and might slow down weight loss.. :confused:

I sent over the whole list of ingredients of Fybogel Orange to my consultant and he said its OK. Its gluten free and sugar free. I had been using it for nearly 2 weeks!

I am speechless....... but I am very sure it does not contain sugar and there is only artificial sweetner.

Fornight & Jayce; Lol, what a debate about laxatives. ;) If you guys are so concerned about sugar or the lack thereof, why not just take the husks stuff? That's guaranteed not to have sugar. Shrugs :D BTW jayce, you coming this sunday, 4 pm?

On the topic of butts, squats do hella good for the butt, although it's a wee bit strain on the knees if you aren't used to it. But i'd recommend it to anyone who wants a nice behind pronto.

Racheal, looks likes you got it all planned out eh? Way to go! The best way to tackle this program is to plan everything out, so that there's less chance of succumbing to temptation. And that's exactly what you've done, so congrats!

Bye Bye Blubber; love your nick, real apt! :D
 
The taste of the husks is unbearable!!!!

Anyway, I just reached the office and was told that beside the office BBQ that we are having tomorrow and the farewell dinner for our colleague next monday, my long-distance bosses will be visiting us on 28th Aug, which means another dinner session on 28th Aug!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In addition to these office dinner sessions, I need to attend a friend's birthday session on 25th Aug. He specially make it a steamboat session in order to accommodate my diet as much as possible so I really can't disappoint him.

I think I can kiss my 2nd mini goal goodbye this mth........
 
Hello all - I am a graduate of Cohen's - finished refeed about mid May this year.

Just wanted to drop in and see how you are all going. Good to see some familiar names but also plenty of new ones. Stick with it ladies - it is worth it! I lost 20 kg in 8 weeks and now eat everything and anything I want and have not put on a kg since I finished! I am fitting comfortably in to size 8 clothes and have given away all my size 12 and 14 stuff that outgrew me!

Keep up the great work - I am living proof that this diet works and is worth it!
 
Getting ready!!!

Hello there everyone,
I go into the clinic tonight to get my program - wish me luck! Here comes the new me hey!!!
Moneypenny- WOW 20kg in 8 weeks! Congratulations. I am such a sceptic - are you being paid by Cohen's!!! I can't believe that weight-loss. You must feel so amazing. Well done. Please excuse my gushing but to know that you've done it and that I too may be as successful just blows my mind! Do you think I can do it??? Can you share any tips, advice, secrets to inspire those of us just embarking on this program? My biggest fear is putting all the weight back on again - but you seem to have maintained it. Another pat on the back for you!
Did you ever 'fall off the wagon' so to speak?
Would love to hear your story.
Thanks for your time.
 
Fornight; it's either that or forever contemplating the presence of sugar in every other alternative. Your call girl!

As for the many dinners, maybe you could call ahead and try to work with them? Tell them you have special dietary needs or soemthing. Mention the GEMS campaign and maybe they'll force themselves to go the extra mile ;)
 
8-2 Much- Congratulations on joing the program :) I know how you feel about being excitted, i was so excitted to start and im still excitted seeing the scales go down. I have lost just over 5 kg's in 11 days and i feel fantastic already, so yes you can do it girl! Just think of the way you will look & feel after you have put all the effort in!! Oh and DRINK ALOT OF WATER!!!!
Best of luck with everything and hope to hear your success very soon, it will melt off you, honestly!!
 
Thanks BAM - you're a gem!
I'll keep you up to date and well done to you! How amazing - you'll be finished before you know it. I look forward to sharing my journey with you.
 
Decreasing Bra sizes

Dede23 Yes! I have most definitely had a bra size decease...Since 'blossoming' in my teens I have always been generously endowed, but I am soooooooooo happy to have gone from a size 16F to a 14DD!!! :D I can now buy bras for under $20 in Big W and places like that rather than having to spend $50 plus in Myers or lingerie stores! I couldn't be happier! And there still might be more to come - err - go!
 
I hear You Less Of Me!

I too (had) the same problem! I bought 2 bra's yesterday at Kmart for the price I usually pay for one! It was great. My mum is about to start cohen's. She is the one who told me about it, and she hasn't even started yet. She's annoyed coz the 3 of us who she told have all lost over 30kg, the guys are on refeed! Now I have someone else with me again:)
 
hi all.. i went for my 4th week blood test today... then during the blood extraction... i actually blacked out .... then the people there told mi.. might be lack of sugar... T_T , now i'm worried about my next blood test... will the same thing happen again?

Hi all & welcome to all the newbies,

Just called in for a ticker update...only 5kgs this month, so i am really disappointed, especially because i'm so 110% on this program - no deviation and i didn't get to my personal goal of being below 100kgs. It feels like my fat is hanging on and doesn't want to let go, oh well better luck next month.
