    Getting back the control!

    Doing well so far, have branched out into lighter life meals from superdrug - saw them at buy one get one half price! Liking this meal replacement during the day and real food at night malarkey. Getting fewer calories but staying sane and healthy so far! Also it's nice to eat a meal with my...

    Getting back the control!

    I honestly don't know, it happens all the time. I used to think I had an intolerance due to all the bloating but I only ever ate good food. Tried a low fodmap diet for a while and took friendly bacteria but it didn't make much difference. This weekend I think it might have just been portion...

    Getting back the control!

    Well I had a weekend off plan but actually yesterday I did stay under 800 cals, just with real food - eggs, veggies, yoghurt. My flat stomach has gone now though... Back on it today! I think drinking loads of water helps with the flat stomach so I was a bit down on that yesterday. All about the...

    Well I'm in wetherspoons! Had the pulled chicken salad, which with dressing is 400 cals. But I only ate the chicken, cucumber and lettuce. Left the bacon, dressing, tomato, onion and avocado. Was delicious! Also am on my second cider. Out of ketosis but still under 1000 cals for the day!

    Getting back the control!

    Well I'm no lighter than I was a couple of days ago but I'm staying on it so I know those numbers will go down soon! This morning I felt awful: shakes, palpitations, confusion... I've been feeling really discombobulated the last couple of days. I might switch to the Flexi plan as I don't want to...

    Getting back the control!

    I'm really enjoying it! Struggling a bit some days getting all four meals in. But I really like making my own food decisions! Going on holiday a week tomorrow so will relax a bit but not going to go crazy! Watch this space!

    EXANTE: Review Your Best & Worst Shakes/ Meals Here

    I'm only on day 5 but have been trying all the different options at every meal. Good: all the bars thus far! So far: peanut butter, chocolate orange. Chocolate caramel is ok but not as good as the others. Chocolate coconut is ok, bit salty! Also really handy for when out and about. And whilst...

    First food failure. Cheese and bacon breakfast eggs = inedible. I said I'd eat unexciting food but I just can't manage that!! Thank goodness I only ordered three packets!

    Where is this lack of hunger I've had all weekend... I'm ravenous!! Had butterscotch delight for breakfast, Indian curry for lunch (yum). Holding out til 5pm for dinner and then having a chocolate bar standing by whilst watching bake off tonight. Downing water like there's no tomorrow to keep me...

    Oh I feel you. I'm all thighs!! Bought some size 12 eBay bargains today. Aspiration! Wasn't brave enough to attempt jeans though.

    Getting back the control!

    2lb down from yesterday (afternoon so not accurate). I'll take yesterday as my staying weight after the scales kerfuffle. My stomach definitely feels flatter though but I also think I've been bloated for ages so it'll just be that I think. I like it though! Comfortably in my size 14 jeans which...

    Perhaps I am in ketosis already. Not hungry, funny taste in mouth, had a terrible sleep last night! I didn't think it would happen so soon!

    Gah. Feeling horrendous today (day 3)! Lethargic, discombobulated. Not hungry though. Perhaps I did too much today with the food festival. Might need a power nap!

    So I went and got my scales instead of using his... 12st1lb (Vs 12st13.25 yesterday and 12st4lb this morning). Definitely sticking to mine!! Now I need to update all my stats on here and my first week will probably be all screwed up! Argh! In other news we just got back from a food festival...

    Oh I'm fine I think, this is all the motivation I need to stay on plan :) I can easily say no when I have a constant reminder that I need to stay on this. Eg last night we had a drink and usually I would have a cider or a beer, especially as we had no gin. Bit instead I had a vodka and soda...

    Getting back the control!

    Hellooo! Started Exante yesterday, have been reading people's diaries and am finding them inspiring! Since I moved in with my boyfriend in March I've lost all control of food. I'm usually quite anti-carb - I don't eat bread, rice, potatoes. And neither really does he. He cooks healthily (but...
