Working Solutions The new me (i hope!)

[Constantstar]

Ello all, I've been on here before trying to loose weight. I have came away for a bit as wasn't doing so well. Now my weight is annoying me. My arms are fat, my stomach is big, my thighs look huge.
December 2014 has changed my life forever. My best friend, my mum , passed away from cancer. My dad couldn't fly back to uk as he was too ill with his chest ( they were separated) and none of my small family ( 2 uncles ) came to the funeral. It was very tough on me , and I've been feeling quite alone and comfort eating. I'm prob my heaviest without being preggers. I've had 2 children.
I need to so this. My mum would of wanted me to.
I tried to the gym but my oh works late and I couldn't go because of the kids ?
So I've decided exante . Il be trying total solution , altho I am prepared for it to be a mixture of total and working solution as I know il have times I just need food!
Ideally I'd like to be about 8 to 8 and a half stone.

Il weight myself tommo with my current weight ( i dread to think!)

Support is very much welcome xx

Hello and welcome back. I'm so very sorry to hear that you lost your Mum, and that your Dad is ill. My Mum passed in 2005 and my Dad a few years ago. I know how much it hurts. I also have a very small family and now that I live alone things can be really tough.

It's a lovely idea to lose weight because then something positive will come out of the pain you feel. Bless you. Good luck and keep posting x

Thank you for your kind words. My dad's been better and managed to visit for a couple of weeks. Dropped him to airport this morning. So starting exante today. Well I ordered some new ones - banana and strawberry smoothie and cherrie and berries. I've opened the banana and strawberry one today and it's not great! Banana makes it taste off!! Lol! I'm forcing myself to drink !! Weighed myself after the shake as forgot - 10st 7 !! That's awful for me!!! ?

I'm really sorry to hear that you lost your mum. It's never easy losing someone so important to you - I lost my mum to cancer when I was 11 and it is hard but I'm sure she was as proud as she could be of you and you should cherish that everyday.

I agree with you about trying to go to the gym. I have two children as well and it is impossible to find time to go inbetween husband working and doing everything else that needs to be done.

I think you could have really amazing results with Exante, even if like you say you're not always perfect, you can definitely be a few stone down by say August if you stick to it mostly.

I wish you the best of the luck and hope to see you posting some fantastic losses in the coming weeks.

Star, the flavours can seem odd at first. After a few days (or weeks!) you get used to them and start to enjoy the taste. Having said that I still don't like most of the savoury meals. I'll keep trying, though x

Thank you for the messages! I changed my start date today, I'm back at work after school holidays and decided Monday would be a good start!!ive got the raisin bars for lunches as I thought it would be easier than shakes , altho I bought the exante shaker incase I want to have it at work! Just weighted myself - 10st 6 !


I've got a 5 day holiday to Marbella in 6 weeks - how much could I realistically loose by then?

I also have a turkey holiday end of July!

I've got my kettle bell here too.. So let's do this Here we go xxxx Sent from my iPhone using MiniMins

So today I had a strawberry shake for brekkie, a bar for lunch, dinner was a salad with fresh fish.

I've had one fruit tea, half a coke zero.


I'm starving ?

Ended up having a cheese sandwich and crisps too!! Doh!!!

Trying the berries and cherries shake it's ok but had a very wierd metallic chemical taste. Only one I seem to be able to palate is the strawberry! Must finish this before work ..
