False Start

Today I got an 8am phone call from my sister asking me if I could babysit my niece because she had been poorly the night before and my sister had a few things to do. So I ended up having to wait ages before I could meet with CDC (Cambridge Diet Counsellor) to collect my packs.

After collecting my packs I started feeling poorly too and was sick so I didn'y start today. Hopefully Im feeling well tomorrow and will start then :-)

A change of mind....

Yesterday I emailed Mike from the previously mentioned post to ask him a little advice about joining Lighterlife or the Cambridge diet. The pros for LL being that the cognitive therapy comes with the diet but on the downside, I can't start right away and I don't really feel drawn to the counsellor the way I did with the therapist I saw a year or so ago.

Don't get me wrong, she seemed to know her stuff but I think a lot of it is that I have someone else to compare her to and I don't feel the same...ummm...warmth(?) I feel with my previous counsellor, J.

In the meantime I approached a local Cambridge diet counsellor, T and she is really really lovely. Her concern seems to start and end with her clients and I really took to her personality whilst chatting away on the phone. So, I am even more swayed to start with the cambridge diet and get the cognitive therapy with a therapist I am already well aquainted with.

Makes perfect sense to me!

So I get to start the Cambridge diet today. Had my medical this morning and all was well on that front so TODAY IS THE DAY!!! I'm going to see T today to give her my medical sheet and pick up the packs. WOOHOO!
