Im starting total solution in a few days and need to weigh myself to track weight loss and make goals etc but im very scared. I know im very heavy but its going to really make me feel down because it will make it more "real". Ive been in denial about my weight for years (avoiding scales, mirrors and any kind of reflections)
Dont worry, You're heading in the right direction! Whatever the scales say, It wont be that number for long, Its just your starting numbers. So while you're on them scales, Say goodbye to them numbers :) It can be daunting, but starting is part of the solution and you're on your way! None of us on this forum want to be the weight the scales say, So we are all here to support you and eachother, Be strong and remember that the scales will soon start to reward you with amazing feelings of achievement and confidence as the weight comes off, and it wont be that long away either :) Good luck hun xx
Thanks for your kind words. Im still scared tho lol. So, how are you getting on? have you started yet? xx
I was scared too. Infact, I put it off for so long that im now 3st more than i was last year when i planned to start the diet lol. Im here now though! Im finding it ok thanks hun, Day 2 of Exante Total today and the only thing that bothers me is the water. Im usually drinking 3 litres of squash a day easy, but now i need to wait to go shopping before i can get juice im allowed, so i have got a few bottles of Coke Zero from the shops for now (Just dont think im allowed too much of it so have to be careful!).
When do you plan on starting? There are so many of us starting with it being the new year, So you will have a lot of support. You're going to get there :) xx
As soon as my order comes ill start. Its like i just dont want to know how much of a fatty i actually am
Id really like to swap email address's or even phone numbers with someone so i know that support is just on the end of the phone if i really needed it but i cant and wouldnt want to post my details on an open forum like this. To private message you need 50 posts's. Ive only got 12
I think we can all relate to that hun, But we wont be fatties for long lol, Best of luck to you and try not to worry about the scales too much just get it over with. You will be smaller than a lot of others here im sure, We all have different journeys but are all heading to the same place xx
I brought some scales the other day. But they are still sat in the box. I just cant do it! Maybe if I do it in lbs instead of stones would be easier to swallow?
Maybe! There are a lot of success stories on here i have read, Pleople who have started at 38st and are down to 11st, Amazing. Whatever your weight, It is just the beginning and once you find out the numbers then you know what your working with. Im sure the first weeks results will give you a huge boost anyway, as most have a good loss and it will make you feel better. What's the worst that can happen really? No need to feel ashamed or afraid, It's just a number you're going to shrink :) xx
wow 38 to 11 stone. Where did you find that? Have you done this diet before?
If you're going to do Exante then you're no longer in denial :) weigh yourself, write down the number then watch it get smaller every week! It's a great feeling xxQuote:

I can't say exactly where now as i have been glued to this website since this morning nand have read almost everything hehe! The last story i just read was a lady who went from 350lbs down to 119lbs, Fabulous stories and photos on here xx
Thanks for your message. . But ive done this so many times before. Thought "Right, this is it" and ive lost weight. Ive regained it all every time. Sorry if sound moany. I cant help it. This is why ive not took control of my weight sooner cuz i think - Im just gona put it all back on again so whys the point?? I done really well on slimmimg world about 6 years ago. I lost 3 stones. My starting weight was alot less than it is now so i didnt feel so overwhelmed. I regained the 3 stones and more went for it again, lost 2.5 stones then put it back on again and more again. Im now at a disgusting weight. (I have some idea)
I was 11 stone and really fit. The amount of weight i have gained is absolutely shocking. Im so shamed that i dont think i could tell you! People who havent seen me for years are shocked when they see me now.
Ive been putting this off for years.
Its like if i think about my weight it confirms how bad ive let myself go for so long. Which depresses me so its better to be in denial so i dont feel so worthless, ashamed and a failure. God im sorry, i really need to get this off my chest. My weight has been such a burden that i havent lived properly. Just existed. I feel soooooo overwhelmed by how much I have to lose but i cant live like this anymore. I feel upset just talking about this
You don't have to tell anyone your weight or even put it on the site.
If you've lost weight and gained it back a few times then maybe you need to think about how you view food. I don't believe you can successfully do Exante (or probably any diet) if you don't change your relationship with eating xx
