Any April 2015 starters?

I've just ordered from Exante so hopefully it will arrive tomorrow (unless the bank holiday has affected it!).

Never done a diet like this before. I did SW for a bit before my holiday last year and managed to lose about a stone but then after the holiday to America, gained almost double that back! Never really found the motivation to get back on board with SW when I got back (I never went to the meetings anyway). Dabbled here and there with Slimfast with minimal success - mostly due to my inability to stick to it but did manage to drop about half a stone.

I think Exante might be the one for me at the moment - it's very restricted in the sense I can only use their products so I think that will help.

Just looking for any other new starters or ongoing Exante dieters that may want to offer one another support!

Thanks

Hi Muffinbrook I'm not doing Exante but another vlcd CWP and have done this before. I think we've around the same amount to lose though I think I did put 8st as goal but to be honest I'd be happy to get to 8st 7 (again!). Just wanted to wish you well and I'm sure you will be fine. Vlcd's are hard but if you're committed you'lol do just fine.

Drink your our water and keep distractions techniques at hand if you feel you are wavering.
 
Hoping to be starting next week as ordering tomorrow as its payday so going to be starting real soon. Good luck on your journeys and hopefully I can be posting my losses along side you. x
 
starting up again on Monday
just had domestic issues and all the hurdles life throws at us, but truth is I am going in hard and losing this 42lbs that I need too
we can do this
 
Kenshin 112 you are in the zone. Hoping to get in there with you and start dropping these pesky pounds. The sunshine is around the corner and soon it will be summer shorts and dresses and I have just brought myself a beautiful white dress with butterflys on and its gorgeous but its also 1 size to small EEKKK :eek:
 
i am in the zone Honeyz :) xx
 
Officially started today. Had a banana shake - yum, a choc Orange bar - tasted really salty and a raspberry and white chocolate bar which also tasted really salty. I've read that your taste buds get used to it so here's hoping! Also found the drinking water quite easy so hopefully I'll keep it up. Can't wait to share my losses alongside the rest of you! Good luck all x
 
Hello! Can I join?

I think we might have started on the same day, muffin, 12th April? How's it going?

On to day 4 now and there are ups and downs but so far 100%! Eek!

so cross with myself to be back here but glad to try and nip it in the bid before it gets any worse... That's the plan anyway!

All the best!
 
Hey can I join - I started on Monday this week - so far it's going well. How's everyone else doing? I've just joined mini mins
 
Hello Evokey, isn't this site just great, keeps my fingers busy and away from any banned goodies lol. I am starting Monday as just waiting for my shakes to arrive, I have everything else apart from my shakes and I cant do vegetable soup for breakfast hahahaha
 
I'd like to join you guys!!! I'm officially starting on Sunday but using the next three days as zero carb / working solution days to ease me in! How's everyone doing?
 
I'm on day #2... I've done exante a few times before and while it's no where near as effective as lipotrim it's soooooo much nicer. :D

I've decided to start drinking cola again though to ease me through the diet (I have a bit of an addiction that I gave up as my new years resolution)... It's the zero stuff with malic acid instead of citric so shouldn't affect ketosis... I feel a bit lame that I've made the decision to drink coke but I think it'll help me and I intend to quit again at the end of the diet. :)
 
Hello everyone!

Well that's my first week done and I think it is getting easier, though I have my moments. Have lost just shy of 7 lbs this week, taking me to 12 stone exactly! If only it could have been a touch more and I'd be in the 11's!

and I think you're allowed coke zero on exante, but they recommend only one can a day? I couldn't do without mine either.. total addict!

How is everyone else getting on?

I've drunk a couple of pints a day when I've done exante in the past.
I quit coke as my new years resolution but decided if I'm dieting the coke will stop me cheating... Lame I know after 3.5 months of no coke so as of yesterday I'm back to 2 pints a day (I really try not to exceed this).
 
Gonna stock up on coke zero today and try that boullion stuff we're allowed to. 3 day low carb done, meal replacement intro done, just got a gruelling day of TS ahead of me !! What's everyone doing today?
 
Hey everyone! It's day 7 for me today... guess that means first weigh in tomorrow! I've done LT before but swapped to Exante because I got sick of the shakes. Lost 17lbs in Jan-Feb but life got in the way and I put 10lbs of it back on since, GAH! Guess that's what happens if you come straight off it then stress eat lots of junk. And, nice to see you restarting in the forums again too.
 
Btw ASDAs own brand coke zero has malic, not citric acid in so I buy that as it's much cheaper. (no I don't work for them heheh).
 
Good advice and, if only there was an asda near me! SIGH.

How did weigh in go beccastar?

How is everyone else doing today?

Had a toffee nut bar today and it wasn't my favourite... which is disappointing as I usually love the bars (that I've tried so far!). Had the sausage mix last night which was a very weird experience, but not too bad taste wise! I made it into more of a burger shape than a sausage though.. .rebel that I am! Now what to have tonight.... hrmmmmmm choices choices!
