Well I've been having a crappy couple of days. Boooo! :( Tested today and sure enough I'm in ketosis. Think I was yesterday too but didn't test. (no sticks then). The only difference I've noticed is that both mornings my hands have reeked of the chocolate milkshake when I haven't been near it...

Demmeister, that is a very good attitude to have. :)

I've only tried the curry and pasta carbonara. The curry was more of a soup it was so thin, and was a bit too spicy for me. Other than that it was a nice 'generic curry' flavor. The carbonara was lovely. If you've ever tried Tuc Cheese Sandwich biscuits it's like the filling in those, very...

Glad you took the plunge! It's very pretty, you look more feminine. :)

Yeah, I'm sure they are. I'm into recalling my dreams/lucid dreaming so I was expecting one to come along. My other dreams have been super bizarre and vivid though, it's strange... No I haven't tried the shepherds pie yet, but have one in my box. I'll try it soon but tonight is Chilli since...

Thank you Taupe. Just starting day 4 now and it hasn't been too bad at all. I still crave chocolate but I just ask myself what's the point? :) my OH has been supportive even though he teases me, but the sickening thing is he's one of those men who's skinny as a rake despite eating like a horse!

Honk for Wed Thurs & Fri!

Oh, and I just have to say that Exante is affecting my dreams too! I dreamt last night that I was eating an ice cream but then suddenly realized that I can't eat it, so I was trying to spit it out in a vain attempt to undo the eating! Gross, but it made me laugh this morning. :)

Well done on your loss! It seems that lots of people who have a small loss one week usually make it up in the next which is good. :)

Hope you have a nice day out today. I'm glad I'm not the only woman who doesent like going to the hairdressers! You should be brave and go for a different style, you might love it and a change might do you good. :) I work with the public and recently dyed the front of my hair from red to blue...

Day 4 and I'm still 100%! Last night I tried the curry and barely managed to finish it, it's quite spicy, and the day before that was Thai chicken soup which was...lumpy. So far I'm loving the bars, but the milkshakes are pretty nasty. Glad a bought the shaker so they're lump-free at least...

Thank you both. :) sorry, I realize that I'm just being a brat about it. I should just shut up, loose the weight and feel better. :) On the plus side I tried a pasta carbonara for dinner and it was really nice! Even if it did explode all over the mic...whoops... :p

Well I got my scales and weighed myself. I feel really bad, and very stupid. I found out I weigh quite a bit LESS than what I thought. I feel like being on this forum now is an insult to everyone else... I don't know what to do now. I will obviously carry on dieting because I am tubby and do...

Thank you! I thought about getting bars and shakes, but worried that I'd miss having hot meals in the evenings. Glad you know what it's like being fattened up by the OH. I feel bad because I know he means well, but maybe he'll just have to buy me other things instead lol!

I don't know where you're getting your water from, but for some reason I find that it's much easier drinking from a glass than a bottle. Get a pint glass and tell yourself you'll have to drink at least four pints, and just keep sipping at it. If drunks in a pub can do it then so can you lol!

Well done you! It can be so hard denying ourselves rubbish we don't need, which just goes to show how controlling food can be. glad you got the upper hand. :)

My Exante 'food' finally came in the post, so I thought I'd start my diary. :) Hopefully it will, as well as give me motivation etc, let me remember which things are nice, and which I should never touch again! Unfortunatly though, I don't have a start weight yet. I ordered some scales off...

Good luck sticking to Exante. I'm only starting today so can't really give you any advice from experience, but there are so many people on here who say getting into ketosis makes it easier, so just hang in there for a few days. Naughty food will always be there, and you don't want a few minutes...

Well done on loosing so much weight. I bet there are many, many people out there who would give there right arm to be able to stick to a diet that well! I'm sure the last few pounds will come off mo problem. :)

Thank you everyone. :) will start today when the 'food' comes. (My OH thinks it's hilarious that I'll be eating powdered food for a while, not good!!) I'll probably start a diary on here today too.

123Slim, I saw this on the Exante site regarding the carbonara: Not sure how you're making it but might help if you're doing it by the packet . :) Update: We've been listening to your feedback on the new pasta carbonara. Some of you feel that the instructions on the packet do not result in...

Yeah, its my first time. Not really a fan of dieting tbh but I keep stuffing my face so something has to be done! :p I'm feeling like you was, nervous but excited. Hope the meals are ok, I've heard so many mixed reviews...

I read somewhere on the Exante forum that they frown upon having the no carb & cal noodles on TS, so it's definitely worth checking about this first before you get carried away. :)

Good luck to you both! I'll be starting this week, as soon as the packs come in the post. :)

Very helpful, thank you. :)

Hello everyone, yet another newbie on the start of her Exante journey. :) I used to be quite thin back in the day, but about 6 years ago I met my other half who kept feeding me up with nice things and I put on weight... My job is also a big problem for me. I work in a food store, handling...
