    What's the longest time it took for you to get into ketosis

    Ok This is a bit strange but when I use the sticks they either show up as not in ketosis or sometimes very pale, I know they are not reliable. but I have had a few glasses of wine a couple of times and they show up dark then.

    Does fluid intake really make a difference?

    How about trying the water flavourings? I bought the multi pack, but have only tried the peach so far and it is lovely made with hot water, not tried it in cold yet. Or keep a water bottle with you and just keep sipping from it?

    Porridge is so SWEET!

    Lol, thats a good way to look at it. Just had a look at Slim & Save, they do an unsweetened version. Never heard of them before yesterday, might give them a try after Ive waded through my month of Exante. Thought it would have been here today so I could get started but its not arrived yet...

    Porridge is so SWEET!

    Thanks Marge have only just seen Slim and save and am going to order a sample pack and go between that and Exante. Think if I had seen S&S first I might have gone for them, Hopefully I am going to stick to this for a few months and get down!

    To All LIPOTRINIANS...

    Hi Chiku, sorry for your loss. Try and think on all the good times you had together. If you cant find another chemist to supply you what about trying Exante and getting it delivered if you can handle your own weigh in. Ive got another week on Lipotrim and then switching as I have a 60 mile...

    Ketosis has saved me from curry!!

    Husband just phoned and asked if I wanted to go out tonight. I said no but I was swithering. Anyway I tried a ketostix to see if I was there yet and it's finally happened. I am only in the first pink one but it was enough to make me decide not to go.

    Lipotrim -v- Exante

    I've decided to switch when I'm finished the LT. Had the soup last night but was struggling to finish it. That's good they are always at £25 cos I was worried in case they'd go up before I bought them.

    Lipotrim -v- Exante

    Bev, do you find the bars on Exante are ok? I struggled with LT ones last time and just could not eat more than a nibble of it, they are disgusting. I am looking at getting the variety pack, how are the soups?
  179. W

    Lipotrim -v- Exante

    That's great, thanks. Hadn't heard of Exante before and didn't want to switch. I'll have another good read of the site and compare them. Getting it delivered would be a great help and a bonus being cheaper! I just didn't want to upset any loss ive made so farbut making sure I get to the...

    Day 2 - absolute struggle

    Hi chester, glad you are feeling better. I'm on 4th day and feeling good. The first 2 days were pretty awful with headaches and stomach. My headache is a lot better and the stomach pains have gone, just getting a bit of cramp. So glad I persevered. Good luck.

    Lipotrim -v- Exante

    Hi have just come across Exante and wondered if anyone had been on it before Lipotrim. Are they basically the same. Reason I'm thinking about switching is they deliver and I have a 60 mile round trip to pickup LT as there is no chemists supplying nearer me and afraid that I will get stuck...
