    Hi, I like the chicken, veg and tomato soups. Not brave enought to order any different flavours. I do like the shakes but stick to the chocolate, vanilla and banana. I do have some strawberry but I do find the bits a bit hard to swallow. Going to have porridge in the morning. Feeling very...

    Hi Ve and welcome, I started yesterday but I have done a vlcd before. The results are amazing as long as you stick to it. You should see a significant weightloss after 6 months and what an incentive with the burlesque lessons. What a lovely husband you have and yes he'll love it lol. :welcome2:

    Lighter at night!!!!!

    I totally agree. Some weeks on LL I only lost 2lbs and you do think 'my god why am I putting myself through this when I can go to weightwatchers and lose the same and eat' but the next week I'd weigh-in and be 4-6lbs lighter.

    Extra Easy Free food vs syn free food

    Thanks for this thread. I'm not finding this time round with sw so easy as the diet 'extra easy' title would suggest. Maybe it's my consultant that hasn't explained it very well or i'm just a bit thick lol. I have cut out the mugshots though, purely for the calorie content. I'm going to read...
