Thanks yoyo! Feeling pretty pleased with myself and need to hang on to that feeling now! You have similar start weight and goals to me and you are doing amazing! I need to hold onto this feeling I have right now in order to troop on through lol!

Well here I am another day and another loss!! I am so happy as I have reached another mini milestone and got into the 10s already! Weighed at 10st13lb this morning and really feeling the difference in my clothes I'm a bit worried about kicking myself out of Ketosis while I am away which is...

Well... I have only gone and done it already! Weighed this morning at 10st13lbs!! NOT intending to go back to the 11s this time! Only on day 9 and lost 10lbs already YAY!! I know it will slow down now but I am SOO happy to meet milestones like this :) :) Just baked yummy porridge biscuits for...

Well I finished week 1 with an 8lb loss :) currently 11st1lb at last weigh in and hoping to be in the 10s any day :) :)

Well I am SOOO proud to say that I have been completely and utterly 100% while I have been away at the caravan and finished week 1.... 8lbs lighter! GO ME!! Feeling really proud of myself and even sat in McDonalds while my mum and my son ate burgers and just had a black coffee! :) I have come...

Hi Princess have you kept going? Is it getting easier after pushing through day 4? Hope you are doing ok! I am now on day 5 myself and had a bit of a cheat last night (worse than apples lol) but have been 100% again today. Feeling encouraged as my new order arrived today too

Thanks Giggle hope you are back on track just visited your diary :) I had a bit of a slip up yesterday because I unexpectedly had my niece and nephew to look after and quickly made a picnic to take them out and went out without anything for myself. Managed fine when out but if I don't have my...

How are you doing now? I struggled last night (day 2) and have now smashed through the pain barrier of the first couple of days and I am on day 3 with breath that smells like the bat cave at Chester zoo which I am GLAD about because... good bye feeling of hunger HELLO Ketosis :) :) Oh and the...

Ok so I am on day 3 now and the scales say I have already lost 5lbs lol! Was proud of myself yesterday when I took kids to a pub for lunch with a friend and her children and while they ate I had a cup of boiled water. Despite gazing longingly at the ham and cheese baguette my friend munched...

Well being a daily weigher while on Exante, at the start of day 2 I have just stepped on the scales. yesterday they read 11st9lb. Today they read... 11st5lb!! 4lbs off by day 2!! I know its not 'real weight' off yet but for day 2 I am pretty pleased with seeing this on the scales and has given...

Hey all I am back in this thread after losing 2 stone last year and successfully reaching 10st. Unfortunately I have had to return as after a reasonably successful (but short lived) period of maintenance I have flown back up to 11st 9lb (oops!) Restarted yesterday a year on from my previous loss...

Hi Princess well you said you find it difficult to get past day 4 and here you are on day 4 if I am right? If so I suppose its crunch time for you (crunch time not in the way of eating crisps lol) just wanted to say good luck with pushing through the day 4 barrier and it will get easier from...

Urgh its 20 past 8 in the evening of day 1 and already the motivation is beginning to dwindle. That familiar evening feeling during the first couple of days has set in... FOOOD! Just went and opened fridge, drooled over its contents, closed it and came up to my bedroom leaving the kids watching...

Wow 10lb in week one you are doing amazing! I am just restarting today as I also lost weight (2 stone) on Exante previously (a year ago) and put almost all of it back on. I haven't got a holiday to look forward to but the determination is still there! Good luck

Hiya I am just restarting today its a great diet and I lost just over 2 stone on it last year. Through laziness I have put most of it back on but am actually excited to be starting again! Sounds like your first day went brilliantly- I usually struggle first 2 days and am looing forward to...

Hi Princess I have just restarted Exante today after losing 2 stone on it a year ago. I have ordered 2 weeks worth and started this morning with what I had left in the cupboard (albeit on some slightly out of date shakes and carbonaras lol). How have your first few days been? Good luck

OMG just realised it is EXACTLY a year to the day since I joined this forum first time round and here I am restarting without even realising that it is an exact year on!

Well here I am back in this Forum almost one year to the day of starting Exante first time round. I first started Exante on 18th August 2013 at 12st 3lb and subsequently lost just over 2 stone in a relatively short period of time. I enjoyed the diet for the most part but started going off the...

I lost 7lb week 1 but others have lost more during first week. I did have a slip up during that week so was pretty happy. Ive done 6 weeks now and ive lost a stone and a half. If id been 100% the whole way through it would be more. So very happy as its my most successful weight loss

Hey Delilah u really are in the best place diet wise. I was like u never stuck to anything im now 6 weeks in to exante and lost a stone and a half. Didnt think id make it this far! First couple of days are a killer but it does get easy i promise! Missing your boyfriend cant be easy so try turn...

Weigh in yesterday at 10st 10lb and just realised i have lost a stone and a half in a month and a half! ;-) Went off track big time yesterday. Had 2 slices of m&s steak pizza and half a piece of garlic flatbread! Eeek! Dont know how i convinced myself that was ok i really dont. Still wasnt...

Hey just to say hope u have had a good weekend? I went right off plan yesterday oops but 100% again today and back on track for the working week! Hope u are ok x

Oh no hope u feel better soon! Loads of water and make sure u still have all your packs. Ive skipped in the past and ended up munching the next day! Brilliant weight loss by the way :-)

Hi you have similar weight to me although i am already 5 weeks in on exante. I started at 12st 3 and am currently 10st 10 with a goal of 9st 10. I have had a couple of slips but minimins has really helped me get back on track each time. Logging and sharing my own diary on here has particularly...

Awake a lot of the night last night with a dreadful migraine. Numbness in my hand and face and excrutiating pain! Lots of water this morning and a nasal spray that I have for migraine which helps but still feel exhausted, drained and delicate! Late start at the office due to that and nipped home...

Oh dear that's the sort of thing I have been known to do during my slip ups... a quick munch without letting the sensible conversation in the brain talk you out of it! As long as the sensible side quickly takes over again we are still winning ;) Hope you are having a good day x

Oooh I havent updated on this thread for a bit. I have lost 10lb so far in September. I won't make the 14lb but happy with what I have achieved :) Maybe even another lb or two next few days! Giggles - 7lbs to lose, 6lbs lost, 1lb to go. Carrie1980 - 10lbs to lose 2.1/4lbs lost 7.3/4lbs to go...

Thank u! Hope u have had a good day too. Still 100%. Ketostix said i was in ketosis yesterday and today not at all! Still stayed same weight as well! Im not faltering though. It has to budge if i keep it up. Much easier when busy with work. Nipping back in office to do some policy stuff after...

10st11 this morning. Its definitely coming off slowly but surely. Not going to see those 11s again! Got a late meeting tonight til about 8pm so wont see my baby before bed. Must remember to take extra pack with me to have before meeting at 6 or il be tempted by biscuits! =-O

Im a comfy 12 in most of mine but im just getting there. The idea of being a size 10 makes me sooo excited! I have avoided having my picture taken for so long. Cant wait to be happy with my weight and im confident about getting there now. I was just in the kitchen and caught a glimpse of...

Yes i definitely find that! I think knowing we have come this far is enough to get back on track though! You will get to the 9s before u know it. Didnt u buy a 6 week bundle? I reckon u will be into the 9s in 3 weeks max! Bit longer for me but im really excited at the thought of getting there...

Well it sounds like u were fairly good! Making those choices shows u are still in control so it wont set u back. And now u get to see those pounds come off again quicker than they went on! ;-)

Have u got rid of some of your bigger clothes? I opted for the loft after much deliberation. They are there in the loft but i see them more as a deterrent than a fallback plan lol! Even now i look at them with horror at how much bigger i was! Well another 100% day for me :-) didnt weigh this...

Im at 10st 12. Further to go for me than most others on here but moving in the right direction and with determination! ;-)

Oops. Missed breakfast pack. Starving after work. Ate a pack of quavers and subsequently quaffed almost a whole bottle of wine out of the fridge. First alcohol in a month. Not even looking at the scales for few days. Promised myself i wouldnt return to the 11s! (hanging my head in shame)

Tesco ultra slim meal replacement bars are meant to be ok on exante and have been my saviour past couple of weeks. I was ready to fall off the wagon before i introduced one for breakfast or lunch each day instead of an exante pack. I personally enjoy porridge, shakes (as long as REALLY cold) and...

Lol at the 600 calories a week! ;-) I would have thought u would burn less than the 409 while on 600 a day simply because you wouldnt be able to push yourself as hard. Depends what the session is like and 409 in half hour sounds like its extreme! I used to circuit train and i used to have to...

Well hello lovely thread that i have been aiming for past couple of weeks! JUST into the tens and EXCITED to be aiming for the 9s now! May take a bit longer (10st 13.2lb this morning!) but here goes...

FINALLY!! I can say goodbyeeee to this thread I am officially IN THE TENS!!! Weighed at 10st 13.2lb this morning! Determined to stay 100% to avoid slipping back! If anyone is actually still on this thread hope to see you soon in the 10s!! ;-) x

YAYYYYY! I AM IN THE TENS!!! ;-) I weighed at 10st 13.02lb this morning! Hovering on the borderline so def keeping 100% to make sure i stay in the tens (til i reach the 9s that is!) Def more confident with the loss yes! Such a busy day so will write more tomorrow x

Hehe the wine is still all unopened in the fridge although i did come close last night! Hope opticians went well and u are having a good day :-)

Thank you. My little one was ultra clingy this morning. My mum has him on mondays so thought it would be easier than childminder days! Seeing him sobbing in the rain getting into my mums car not the best start to my day :-( 11st 0.2lb this morning though! So close lol!

Oh right i had heard about that. Im doing Exante and it works for me. Only VLCD i have tried though so cant compare

Hi, just out of interest; which VLCD did u go for? Good luck with it; VLCD are a sure fire way of losing weight and im loving mine!

Ah thank you. Still 11st1lb this morning so i think it may have just paused my loss rather than undone anything! I also prob would have eaten all 3 Wispas but having 3 kids meant there was just one spare ;-) Not enjoying most of the packs so much at the mo. I am fully back on track though...

Hi Mogli and welcome to Exante! I have just hit a 1 stone loss this morning after 3 weeks 2 days on Exante TS and my start weight was similar to yours so definitely doable for you! If u find the first few days tough these forums can be a really big help. Good luck :-)

Well i got through yesterday without being tempted. In work today just had a shake for lunch. Feeling mightily daunted by the enormity of my new job role and the responsibility that comes with it. Its not making me want to eat right now but a bit worried i may lose focus on things in general. I...
