Hello everyone!

I am starting a VLCD tomorrow after lurking around these boards for a while. It seems that drinking a lot of water is key - do any of you lovelies have any other tips that will help? I really want to shift 5st without worrying about what I am eating as that is my downfall!

Thank you in advance

Hi, I've currently done lighter life but can't afford it and am trying lipotrim but find it tastes awful, is it safe to do the Internet versions and do u need to be monitored, I am on tablets for thyroid and an anti depressant but they were fine on lighter life.
Any advice would be great.

Hiya - does anyone know if we can have these? A few of the ribena plus range don't have citric acid (not the ready made ones tho) Here are the ingredients:
Fruit Juices from Concentrate 6% (Raspberry (2%), Apple (4%)), Malic Acid, Flavourings, Calcium Hydroxide, Vitamin C, Extracts of Blackcurrant and Carrot, Sweeteners (Aspartame, Acesulfame K), Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Bisulphite), Colour (Anthocyanins). Contains a source of Phenylalanine


Also the tesco diet cream soda looks ok to me - does anyone know if we can have it?
Carbonated Water,Flavouring (contains Vanilla Extract) ,Lactic Acid ,Stabiliser (Quillaia Extract) ,Preservative (Potassium Sorbate) ,Sweetener (Sucralose)

Hi guys, i'm new to the forum and the world of VLCD's. Exante seems to be the most appealing to me so far from searching around and i'm quite set on starting it. But is there anything i should know before making my final decision?


Many thanks in advance :)

Hi all, not had good losses for a while... and lots of gains so was looking at trying a vlcd

Boots sell off the shelf, celebrity slim meal replacements... are they any good?

They're £25 for a week but boots have an offer on where the second item is half price so two weeks are £37, less that one week of lipotrim which I think is cheapest

Need a boost and two weeks might do it!

Hi guys,
Just wondering is it possible(for some variety) to mix different diets, such as exante and *snip* meal replacements.
Just saw some of the meal replacements for those.. they look delish! :)

I'm currently doing Slim and Save and have done Exante in the past with great success. I've put a bit back on so am trying to get some back off before my holidays.


Now I love the Slim and Save meals but am not so keen on the shakes and soups. I much prefer the Exante shakes and soups so was thinking about ordering a pack of both after my holidays - that is, a pack of Exante and some Slim and Save meals and some bars.

I know theres the problem of Slim and Save having either 4 packs or 3 with a protein meal. But I'm sure if I sit down and work the calories and carbs out I can come to a compromise.

I was just wondering if anyone else had done this. I know some substitute Tesco bars for Exante bars but wondered if anyone had gone further.

Day two of actidiet vlcd complete whoop :). Just wondering if there is anyone else out there using this diet?

Afternoon all. l've just signed up with Alizonne, had my bloods done yesterday and have my first combined treatments tomorrow. Can anyone give me any pointers/tips about the sachets? l haven't eaten meat for years, don't like curry/spicy stuff, and l'm a bit worried about getting bored and losing motivation. l've seen a few comments that some of the sachets are disgusting (ie tomato soup) and that others seem to be universally popular (hot chocolate). Any helpful ideas very gratefully received!!
Cheers Kath :)
