    Thinking of starting Rosemary Conley

    Hi, Victoriac, thank you. I have defiantly made up my mind to do RC, I've only got another 2 week's of Exante to use up then I'll start. I did LL in 2009 to and put it all on again within 12 months. RC sounds really controlled which is what I need. I too over eat on fruit and other free foods...

    Thinking of starting Rosemary Conley

    Hi Ange S thank you so much. I have got a magazine and it does sound good although the stories in these magazines always make me laugh, but good inspriation. I think like you are I no good with free foods or anything that suggests I can eat as much as you like, I'm a little piggy so counting...

    Hi, I'm thinking of starting RC in the next two weeks. I have two weeks worth of Exante I am trying to use up to kick start me and then I want to diet eating food for a change so that I hopefully don't put it on again. Just wondering what is different about RC compared to WW. I can't seem to...

    week 12 weigh in

    That's true Dave. I really struggled on Sunday at our street party and ended up eating sime crisps and peanuts which I was very disappointed about as I'm sure it slowed this week's weight loss down. I have put it behind me now and focusing on my last few weeks.

    Exercise and Total Solution

    Well my week 11 weigh in and I've lost another 3lbs this week. I'm so pleased, I thought I had over done the drinks powder at one point adding too much as the pot seemed to go down rather a lot and I thought I had taken myself out of Ketosis. I've finding it odd with this hot weather not to...

    Total Solution Boulion??

    I personally don't drink it as I'm not convinced it is ok (we weren't allowed on LL), although I know people do. I use to drink far to much of it and it gives me the "sweet" taste I'm trying to get away from. I need to start enjoying natural tastes. I think most drink 1-2 a day. :)

    Shakes are good, I use all the products to add variety otherwise I'd get bored, I've also just introduced the Tesco ultra slim bars for a change which you can use too. All depends how determined you are at loosing the weight. Good luck

    I'm starting to get negative weight loss comments....

    Having lost my 2 stone so far and pround of it and the fact my thights no longer rub together, it's obviously too much for some people I know. I'm starting to get comments like "you're far too skinny" and "oh no you've lost so much weight, are you ok?". It doesn't make me feel great and in fact...

    exante bars and ketosis ????

Everyone is different, but it may be a good idea to take...

    My move to Weight Watchers

    Thanks for the updates, I'm funding them really useful. I'm sticking with Exante until I reach my goal as its when U Ho on holiday too hopefully. However I'm very worried about maintaining as I failed in 2009 with LL even with completing their maintenance plan and the weight gradually crept back on.

    The food break week

    I don't do it, however I know when I did Lighterlife they recommended making the shakes with.milk for that week which gives you the extra calories but not the "food" . I don't think its compulsory to do.

    What's the situation with exercise?

    I would say if you are in an exercise routine keep with it. I run twice a week and spin three times and swim once a week, always have so I've carried on during Exante and I'm fine. Zumba would be ok if its your regular class. Good.luck.
  85. HMurphy

    How much can you expect to lose?

    It all depends on how much you weigh at the beginning, the higher the weight the more you will lose . To get an idea have a look at member's tickers at the end of their posts. Tye headaches will go after a few days, plenty of water does the trick. It may be you are use to drinking more tea and...

    Help!!!!! No weight loss

    No to diet coke or anything like it. Water, water, water all the way...black coffee or leaf teas. Good luck and don't give up...keep off the scales, its not always a motivator.

    I'm hoping for 2 on my second. I think my body may be in shock!!
  146. HMurphy

    What is your goal? Weight/dress size/date?

    I'm going for a combination of BMI, size and weight. Which for me is 2/3 dress sizes and 3 stone. They say at about 10lbs is a dress size, I've got so many size 10/12 clothes that I have and NEED to wear!! I'm going to try and loose a bit more as I know I'll but a bit on when I start eating food.

    Got through the weekend....

    Saturday night I went to friends for "dinner" and took my soup. I got a slight interrogation but I think they realised that this is something I want to do. I drank water all night, woke up with no hangover and no kids so I went spinning. Next I went to "lunch" today with my mum. She was ok...

    Picking...

    Over the last week I have realised how much I have been picking at food. My excuse was to "try" the food to make sure it was ok, eat most of the cake mixture before it was cooked, and spooning Nutella out of the jar without thinking. In fact I didn't have to buy a jar this week, funny that...

    I would say by day 4 it gets heaps easier. Stick in there. Have a bath, do your nails....anything to keep you occupied. My trousers for work were to big today!! Not sure what they will look like by next week... Good luck.

    Hi, thanks for that. I do feel like that. I did my colleague I worked with today as we didn't get lunch until 3.30 and I was nearly passing out!! She was ok with it but questioned why a salad wouldn't be better!! I'm sure people won't start noticing for another month or so yet.

    So happy with my 8lb weight loss. I wouldn't say its been easy but the last few days have been better. Bring on the next week and hopefully a few more pounds. My feet and hands are permanently cold so doubled my socks and wishing.for warmer weather.

    Bad Day yesterday :(

    I was looking at my weight loss when I did LL. I kept completely to plan 100%. During the 14 weeks I had 2 weeks when I stayed the same, however the following weeks I lost about 6lbs, keep with it our bodies do strange things.

    Regarding the turkey neck, apparently when you loose a lot of weight fast it take your body a while for it to adjust and almost move the fat around. My LL councillor told me this. Your skin need to hopefully shrink a bit!! Have you tried some facial excerises?!! Lol

    I've ordered a box of porriage, I although I find it really sweet, its good to eat something different. It makes me feel like I'm having a proper breakfast with a bowl and spoon!! I miss the whole plate, bowl and cutlery thing so at least I get to do it once a day. Perhaps I could put my bar...

    Switching from LL to Exante

    Hi, I was on LL in 2009 and got to my goal weight. I gradually put it back on.and within 9 months I had put it all back on. On reflection I was very arrogant and thought that I could carry on eating "normally" and didn't give myself enough time to adjust to portion sizes. Also I excerise a lot...
