G'day! So,after 2 days off the diet (but still healthy eating) today I've gone back to the toffee nut and raisin bar for a try... And I didn't hate it! My weigh in tomorrow will probably be a gain, but Id rather a small gain than to have put me off completely! Hope you're all well!

hey Willow, thanks for that i'm glad it's not only me! and i am an absolute sucker with a sweet tooth! i'm trying to stick to some foods mentioned in the FAQ just now to keep me under ketosis, i'm hoping that having a shake plus some low carb food should keep me under until i can eat them again...

Hi guys. Same again today, body rejected the bar and soup, but the shakes are always fine? I've had chicken tonight to fill me, and I think I might need a day or two off, I don't know if I've sickened myself from it and I don't want to put myself off completely because I've been on a good track...

thanks for that guys, and thanks darcy :) i just tried to have soup and, although im really hungry, it's the same scenario. one spoonful and i wanted to throw up. im really disappointed as im doing well but i don't know what to do?

I tried nibbling my orange bar but it's made me feel sick :( I might order in some carbonara packs and others to try help mix things up a bit cause I can't eat anything at the minute and just don't have an appetite

Thanks taupe! Im having a bit of a problem now though, I'm at the stage where I'm not feeling hungry enough throughout the day to eat my bars, and ive tried forcing myself but I've only had 2 packs the last 2 days, shake in the morning soup in the evening. Is this normal? What harm am I doing...

Thanks susie! I've done nothing but grin all day! Tempted to have a treat tonight but whilst staying on track!

Sorry to hear you've been ill but glad your weight loss isn't affected! Keep it up though!

Thanks Willow! Yeah I know! I was expecting maybe a 5lbs loss this morning... Not a stone! Seeing the number 14 wouldn't be a bad sight at all! I'm going to be in great shape for the biking season! How are you getting on?

Morning all! Sorry again for my lack of being on here, I look forward to reading about how you guys are getting on when I'm on my break This morning was weekly weigh in #2... I'd said to myself if I get into the 15's by the end of march I'd be happy and treat myself at the end of the month...

Thanks Lynne, I agree the orange bars are definitely my favourite too, but this one tastes horrendously salty! Went in the bin and I starved till soup time! Never tried the mushroom risotto to be fair, I'm keen to try the spag Bol and the carbonara though!

keep it up willow!

Thanks Lynne! I appreciate it! I'm getting worse as the days go, I had a strange experience with the bars today. The chocolate orange one tastes fine until I bit Into a bit further down and it tasted absolutely disgusting! I think there was something wrong with it as it tasted really off...

Thanks Darcy! apologies, the last few days have been pretty manic. i've been ill unfortunately and couldn't keep any of my packs down :( i had a bit of chicken when i felt a bit better and now i'm back on the diet. i've set myself an aim, though. i'm hoping to get into the 15's by the end of...

Hi Taupe, congrats on the weight loss! i've lost 11lbs this week to so happy days! i did have an off weekend though where i had a drink* so who knows where i could have ended up! *may or may not have been more than one drink...:D

hey WQ, glad you had a nice weekend, good luck with the extra exercise too, i'm sure it'll be a doddle! have a good day :)

so, after my let down at the weekend, i continued with the diet and today still counts as my first weekly weigh in. my start weight last week was 17st 7lbs... today i weigh 16st 10lbs :D i'm more than happy about that, having never followed a dietplan in my life it's really given me faith in...

So, i fell off the wagon last night and got drunk :( had every intention of not drinking but i ended up doing so :( pretty disappointed as it means i'll need to restart all over again. luckily, no nights out for a couple of months so i should be more determined this time round! scared to weigh...

Nice Darcy! just wrap up warm! Confused, sorry to hear you had a bad time last time round with other diets, but hopefully Exante will help you out, i've found that it makes me feel more positive and full of energy, i've even been in to work on my day off today to clear emails! you can do it :)

Thanks darcy! You too :) I resisted the chicken btw! Feeling pretty good and positive today too, and it's beautiful out, too bad my bike is in pieces or i'd have been out!

Hi folks, good luck with what the month brings, you all seem like very determined and very inspiring folk!

Hi Guys, thanks for the support. i'm just after my veg soup and - as nice as it was - i felt like i was missing chewing something. i feel like cooking a bit of chicken tonight, can i ask what peoples thoughts are on it? i've been told it's allowed but worried it's still cheating!

Thanks Taupe, appreciate it, good on you for not weighing in, I should have been more strict on myself! I'm dying to try the carbonara aswell as everyone raves about it and I do enjoy carbonara hehe. I think I might order spag Bol and shepherds pie to try aswell though

Hi guys, only just noticed there was a diary tab so thought i'd join in. Im on day 4 at the moment, so the first entry will play catch up! Basically I'm recovering from surgery and although I can work again, I'm not allowed back in the gym just yet, so I've joined in with exante to shed a...

I have my shake first thing on the drive to work, so around 8am, I have half a snack bar at 12, then a soup at 7ish, followed by the rest of the bar, I've found it easy enough, I don't generally get hungry after 9 (though I did used to eat for boredom after then!)

Hi :) Thanks, and congrats on the weigh in, I'd love to lose that on my first week! Ive the day off work so I got a good kip and only woke up thinking about a shake, so I'm sat with vanilla, seems nice so far! Think a trip to the cinema is on the cards though, which is annoying because...

i dont have the meals, unfortunately. i thought i ordered them but i never got them, just meals, bars and shakes!

Hi Darcy, thanks for the heads up, thats exactly what it was! didn't think i could go in to ketosis on day 2, mental! i settled with the tomato and basil soup tonight - it was really nice, i'm actually surprised at how nice the majority of it is :) it's making me more determined to crack on...

Thanks guys I appreciate it. Today I started with a chocolate shake, not often a fan of chocolate shakes but I enjoyed it. I've just finished the chocolate orange bar for lunch - which was really tasty! I tried to keep a bit for aftertaste veggie soup tonight but I couldnt resist! Speaking of...

Hi Jen, glad you're off to a good start, it's my first day on it too. i've only the bars, shakes and soups as i ordered the wrong thing! Thai Chicken Soup isn't too great if i'm honest, even blended! Started my day off with the strawberry shake, it's alright but i think some ice would have...

Hi guys, new to the forum and currently on day 1 of the Exante diet :) i found this page last night and it gave me an idea of what to expect... or so i thought! a bit about me, i'm a 21 year old male from Scotland, who has found himself in a position he never thought he'd be in. i used to work...
