Message: Hi SproutI will let you know in 5 day's time! It's my time of the month and I'm on day 3 now so we'll see..........so far no weight loss registering but I'm not worried yet. The last time I did this diet (which is the only other time I've done it) I didn't show a loss until day 5 or 6 either.I started my "time" on the same day that I started day one so will be interesting this time!! I'm hoping I'll be an aberration and will lose More weight instead of less!! :) Wouldn't that be nice???

Message: Actually emerald it's funny you mention because when i first started CSD I was on that time of the month. Because all you're eatting is veggies, cabbage, and fruits you'll be a walking zombie/really unlively. At least that's what it was like for me. I followed the diet closely and didn't cheat at all. After the 7th day though I did loose 3 lbs. Not much like most people on this message board.. but it's still something. I'd be interested to see how other people did while they were on t heir time of month.

Message: Yes I agree with nancy. if you can stay away from alcohol all together. Even the light beers after a month straight of drinking it the weight will creep up behind you. All this talk about drinks is making me crave my whiskey!!!!

Message: After this weekend I have vowed too only one night of wine...I gained back a pound in just three days!So if you can do without please do and if not...cut back to one day Mon, 08 Oct 2007 07:15:48 -0700 http://www.cabbage-soup-diet.com/view_topic.php?pid=12445#12445 12445@http://www.cabbage-soup-diet.com Topic: Wine drinkers advine needed!! Message: Hi DeegirlWell, I have done the rounds myself ha ha-- I used to be a strictly light beer girl then went off beer completely and switched to white wine, then red, and now am into champagne and Baileys (tho not together--yuk!) All I can say is there is less alcohol in light beer than any of the other alcohols and I definitely used to be thinner when I drank light beer! It's funny because I just decided today!! that I was going to go back to drinking light beer. Unfortunately it's kinda hard to get ahold of here in New Zealand! But I will persist. Nancy is right tho, if you can, cut it out altogether. That's just not realistic for me, I know that I will drink on the weekends at least one night! In fact, that was my other new rule, only one weekend night and no other time!! That would be a major improvement for me and a realistic goal. I'm hoping with being super vigilant at everything else I will still lose weight!! So bring on the light beer! I may have to go far and wide to find it here.............weird, don't know why Kiwi's aren't into it! (I'm American but have lived here nearly 10 years) Mon, 08 Oct 2007 01:28:02 -0700 http://www.cabbage-soup-diet.com/view_topic.php?pid=12417#12417 12417@http://www.cabbage-soup-diet.com Topic: Wine drinkers advine needed!! Message: Well even though I know better the past two nights the wine has called my name and I answered, but it is time to put it away for a few weeks and get back to the business of losing this weight.Look out late night pickle snacks here I come LOL Sun, 07 Oct 2007 12:21:40 -0700 http://www.cabbage-soup-diet.com/view_topic.php?pid=12414#12414 12414@http://www.cabbage-soup-diet.com Topic: Wine drinkers advine needed!! Message: I also have a confession!! I love to have a glass of whiskey at night to help mellow me out after my hard day at work. I believe since having the ritual of drinking everyday I've put on about 6lbs.. Not only does the alcohol turn it into sugar but it also retains a lot of water. Although wine is a better choice (calorie wise) than hard liquor and beer.. wine is high in sugar and gives you an awful headache.. at least for me it does. I think just stay away from the alcohol all together when dieting. I've been sober for 3 weeks.. maybe drinking two days out of those 3 weeks and with the cabbage soup diet I lost 3 lbs!!! Good luck to you!! :P Sun, 07 Oct 2007 11:29:03 -0700 http://www.cabbage-soup-diet.com/view_topic.php?pid=12381#12381 12381@http://www.cabbage-soup-diet.com Topic: Have a drink Message: I know it is tough but stay away from the alcohol while doing the csd.  And when you are done only drink occationaly.  When your body breaks down the sugars in alcohol it stores them first above all other sugars and it is the last to let go when trying to lose weight Sat, 06 Oct 2007 10:25:17 -0700 http://www.cabbage-soup-diet.com/view_topic.php?pid=12374#12374 12374@http://www.cabbage-soup-diet.com Topic: Have a drink Message: The whole reason for the CSD is to actaully detox and by doing so lose weight. So consuming any sort of alcohol with be slightly defeatest on your part.

Something like that anyway, I don;t know, I get so confused!! Whatever, doesn't matter as long as there is support out there in some form ! :) Fri, 05 Oct 2007 19:47:08 -0700 http://www.cabbage-soup-diet.com/view_topic.php?pid=12362#12362 12362@http://www.cabbage-soup-diet.com Topic: Starting Sunday, Oct. 7th---anybody else? Message: Hi there, I am starting on the 7th too! Though my 7th is your 6th as I am a day ahead of you since I'm in New Zealand, but will definitely be your buddy! This is only the 2nd time I've ever done csd. Lat time was about a month ago (I think) and I lost 4.5 pounds. For some reason, weight doesn't drop off me like it does a lot of people who do the diet. But I will take what I can get!I want to lose 20-25 pounds total so we are similar in our desires, bringinsexyback! Fri, 05 Oct 2007 19:40:53 -0700
