Well done Craig on completing the twelve weeks. I was diagnosed with Type 2 within the last year and have recently been referred for the Soup and Shake's diet. I'm just under 19st and have a mmol of 8.2 so not too excessive. I am looking forward to losing weight for sure although do feel it will be a challenge. Today I received my sample pack... not tried any of them yet. I have my initial 45 minute assessment call next week and an agreed start date of 23rd January (getting Christmas out of the way). Came across your videos when looking for reviews and just watched your twelve week experience. I'm confident I will stick with it but will miss eating out and generally eating! But... looking forward to the weight loss and becoming more healthy... well done once again.
I am about to start my 12 week Soup and Shake Plan, I feel inspired after following your 12 week journey, thanks for documenting it and wish you well on reaching your future goals x
It was inevitable you’d be wanting to eat a pizza Craig. A lot of people would do this. You’ve been remarkable, a very tough regime. Well done man, onwards and up 🎉
Keep it up! This is a strong will test as well, you gain mentally and physically together. Congrats ❤
my admiration for 12 weeks of dieting, that is really hard. Coming off a diet and changing lifestyle is probably harder.
I'm starting my nhs 12 week programme on 11th November. I am so petrified. Food has been literally my coping mechanism in life And to not have food is a scary feeling for me even if if should of never of been that way with food to begin with. I tasted a banana shake in my trial pack and I absolutely hated it and felt sick. But I am going to do it no matter what. Thank you for your videos I found that will help my journey. Il watch one week by week to follow my week by week journey.
Hi Jacueline - I hated the banana shake too. Eventually just did the strawberry. Treat it like medicine you absolutely MUST have. The weight will come off. No cheats. No sauces, sugars, drinks... I literally only had the shakes, coffee and diet cokes. You'll need the fibre add-on too. I bought 3 shaker cups in the end abd had them clean and in a bag with me everywhere I went. I got a small sealled tub with loads of shake powder in it and a scoop. I sorted the kits out every morning and took it with me to work or where ever I went. The app can be nagging and I think tells us to have too much water - so I counted the shakes, coke and coffee as 'water' too. Take it one week at a time and try not to weightin in between weigh in days.
I’m starting on Monday and feel the same. How did you get on? X
Well done Craig you have done amazing. I have just been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes as well and I had my 1st appointment today with the diabetic nurse and I am about to start this diet as well any advise you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
Treat it as a tasty medicine. Only get the flavours you really like (for me its strawberry (the soups were terrible)). Get extra shakers so you can take them to work and not have to wash the one you use while out. Dont make shakes and keep them in a flask (they expand) - have power and shaker separate and a flask of cold water... even add ice to it. The shakes taste best stone cold. Do it quietly and for yourself... its not a good idea to seek praise for you hard work as it puts you under pressure if too many people know. I had shakes at 9am, 12noon, 3pm and 6pm. GOOD LUCK!
My wife is on this plan atm and has lost 2.5 stone in 10 weeks. I am seriously considering doing the plan. I am a similar weight to your start weight.
What time of day did you drink your shakes / soups ?
Hi Craig, I’ve been following your journey of the soup and shake diet on UA-cam. This is really inspirational. I’m a dietitian about to do a talk on the 12 week programme at a diabetes event. Would you be happy if I recommend your journey to the delegates as think it will feed them with confidence. Also would you possibly mind giving any advice to anyone about to start this journey?
My main take away was to think of the shakes as tasty medicine rather than food. I learnt that food is information the body needs to learn what to do with yourlife. If you give it poor information - it begins to operate badly and you'll feel tired or demotivated... but if its good information the body immeditely responbds better. Like putting low grade oil into a car... low grade oild produces less power. Protien was the good information my body needed and carbs & sugar was bad information. This is something I had to do to fix my health problem. I took small portions 4 times a day and was never hungry or tired. In fact After I'd lost 5 stone I I tried to eat a Pizza and its tasted incredibly sweet to me. I couldnt eat it. Id never thought of pizza as having 'sugar' in them - but there is sugar in everything - especially sauces. beware the sauces!
@@craig-duncan thanks Craig. This will be really helpful to tell the delegates. Really appreciate it.
Did you have food cravings or the desire to chew food? Hunger is more in my mouth than in my stomach. My weakness is crunchy, crisps for that reason.
As I'm watching this last video of your dietary exploits It's 00.10 Friday January 6th 2024, and I'm wondering how you're progressing now. I was only told 2 days ago that my doctor is concerned enough to recommend that I start this treatment. Six months ago you looked AMAZING and had lost loads of weight. 567 of us have watched your story so far. Over many years I watched a rather pleasant looking woman gaining weight until she was told "stop!" - she said words like what you said that you can't be bothered to try different tastes, and you forget to take your shakes in your car. She died aged 51. Are these excuses for us all to copy? I'm a fat 75 year old bloke, and wonder why people who appear to have such good lives appear to want to throw it all away. Complete your journey in peace. you can do it.
