    Good evening fellow exanters! It's going really well, have stuck to TS 100 percent not even had a cup of tea in 5 days!!! Had a sneaky peak at the scales yesterday and was 5lb down 4 days in so I've beaten anything I was aiming for already in first week. Really feel in the zone now! Xxxx

    Day one... No turning back :)

    Ok so I've had apple and cinnamon porridge for lunch and spag Bol for dinner.. Had 4 pints of water so far and I'm feeling great, the spag Bol was really lovely, not used to having even any carbs so was lovely to feel the texture of the pasta xxx

    Newbie to Exante

    That's a great idea, if you're more likely to binge then deffo go for the extra meal, I think that's a really helpful trick for you. Xx

    Break Days?

    You could potentially throw yourself out of ketosis and then take another 5 days to get back into it remember. If you're struggling add the extra protein meal in in the evenings. But I really wouldn't do it like said above you're cheating yourself. Xxx

    Newbie to Exante

    My frame of mind is that if a very low cal low carb meal is going to stop you from falling completely off the wagon resulting in a huge binge then definitely go for it. If you really really need it then I'm all for it. Personally I won't be as I know what I'm like if I break away from something...
