Thread: Any body doing 50/50 between different VLCD's?

I think that now Exante have retracted what they said about replacing other bars, this should be what we say to others now too! The advice you received from one Exante employee has now been retracted. Maybe it isnt because they want us to buy there bars, maybe its because mixing them with meal replacement bars, instead of total meal replacement bars is not what we should be doing for our health.

Lipotrim have said you cant do this for this very reason with the Tesco meal replacement bars.

Saying people can have the Tesco meal replacement bars, but not the shakes, sends out a confusing message.

I definitely think it's down to they realised they shot themselves in the foot

What do you think Div. Unstick the bars thread??

Just unstuck it

What if it wasnt for that reason though? What if it was an employee getting it wrong? Maybe ask Exante for an official reply, like Mini did with Lipotrim?

A sort of 'best of 3' thing

After checking with S&S 4 packs a day doesn't automatically cover your rda unless you add veg. It's a French product & meets their rda but not the UK rda. For example, the spaghetti bolognese only has 19% of one vitamin per meal. Most of the other vlcds seem to have 33%.

im doing s and s but due to finances ive now purchased biggest loser bars and slimmm shakes from approved foods site so will be mixing ad matching

im not too concerned about nutrition , i reckon mine is better than it was when i was eating crap anyway

so ill prob have each day

s and s porridge

slimmm shake

s and s meal with veg

biggest loser bar

Slimm shakes aren't VLCD or TFR so first problem is you'll be out of ketosis. The BL snack bars aren't a Suitable replacement either. You might not be worried about nutrients but your body will. The combination you're going to do is really not a good idea. Mixing full Vlcds is one thing but this is going to just be shockingly low calories. You could make yourself ill or end up gaining weight

Thankyou for the advice

Ill bear it in mind

Shame about the Slimm shakes, they are sooo cheap on approved foods!

yeah , Im going to put them aside to use for maintenance

Thats a really good idea! I keep looking at the BL meal bars on AF but the delevery cost puts me off, I need to add more stuff to make it worth it but as I'm on the VLCD hmm what would I buy!

i bulk the order out with things for my sons snack box and packed lunches , cereal bars , mini cheddars etc

I had the mint choc bl meal replacement bar last night Yuk , now have 9 left and I hate them , oh dear !!

Have you had the mint bars before?

no i havnt , which is the problem , i have nothing to compare them too

maybe they are always this dry or maybe its becasue they are past date

i managed to get one down today by cutting it up and eating it in small pieces while i drank a coffee but it definitely wasnt enjoyable , glad ive only got 8 left
