Thank you. Yes being kinder on youself sounds good. I'm going to try and adhere to that too! I'm a really slow loser, lost another 1lb this week and I'm happy with that. Numbers are going in the right direction, albeit slowly :p😀

1lb loss for me this week. Not gonna complain as I do tend to lose slow. It's still 1 whole lb less than last week 👍 :p Dolly Rocker - 37lbs/95lbs FaeFaeFifi - 68lbs/119lbs Dylanabbie 11lbs/62lbs Biggie - 26.8lbs/120lbs blubell_.0422 0/90lbs Jacci49 16lbs/106 lbs Ebonyspice 5/97...

Just caught up with your diary and want to say a massive well done, you're an inspiration as to what can be achieved when we knuckle down xx (I spectacularly fell off the wagon again and went awol, but am back on it now :angeldevil: )

Gosh look at the date I started this thread! :eek: I'm obviously a yoyo dieter :( Still, back on it and back in the 12s 😀 12st 13lbs 👍

Hope you're well Darcy xx

Hope you're doing well Darcy and enjoying your adventure xx

Weight today 13st 7lbs. Obviously still not in the right headspace , but will give it yet another shot at restarting :(

Well done Ellie, fab week one loss xx

Awwi t looks like he/she's smiling. Gorgeous pic!

What an adventure you're having Darcy! Enjoy the rest of your cruise and thanks for the updates xx

Hi Ellie, hope you managed to start and stick at it? If not then try again, I'm a serial restarter and truly believe that one day something in my head will kick in and I will succeed! You have a wonderful reason to make this work, good luck xx

Well done, you're doing brill. Wish I had some of your willpower! xx

Well done Jacci xx

Wow Sarah, that's brilliant well done xx

Back to try again... Really struggling to get into the right headspace to succeed at the moment. But will keep trying. Weight today 13st 5lbs. Off to read some diaries for some willpower and inspiration.

Well done, great first week loss!

Still weighing 12st 12lbs. Had 2 holidays in May and came off Exante for those, so tbh I'm happy I ended the month no heavier! :p My next holiday is not until July so fingers crossed I can lose a bit this month! Will still take my official weigh in on Wednesday, but have been daily weighing to...

Hi Kerry, well done losing 8lbs. Brilliant!

Well done with a fab week one loss! 10lbs is amazing and you'll be in the next stone bracket next week :)

Hope your brother managed to cheer you up Darcy. Gentle hugs sent xx

Feel better soon Darcy xx

Yeah, I've been on the paracetamol today, and sooo tired. On the good days, this diet is the best. But bad days are, well bad. I really understand the term "hangry" when having a bad day on Exante :D

Thank you Jen, yes it is isn't it? I feel good :D

Hope your little boy is better soon xx

Well done getting into smaller clothes Jacci! Like you, nobody has noticed I've lost weight yet. I have to wear a uniform at work though. My wardrobes and drawers have 4 different sizes of clothes packed away. I did get rid of a lot as the weight went on, but some I couldn't part with. Can't...

Wow! Well done on the 10lbs loss Lucy.

Good luck Jen, hang on in there!

Weighed this morning and I've managed to lose what I gained, I'm back to 12st 12lbs Will try and stay focused this month! Though I have a week and a separate weekend away.

Thank you Jacci. Today has been a good one. Really enjoying the candy cane shakes at the mo. Wishing they did them all year round, but if I'm still on Exante at Christmas then hopefully they'll make a return! Blitzing them with ice, yummy. Also have discovered raspberry coke zero, which is...

Well done Jacci, you're doing great.

Another month of struggling, I fell off the wagon bigtime. Was 13st 4lbs on Wednesday 24th so a 6lbs gain in 2 weeks. A lot and I mean a lot of comfort eating Back on it, one day at a time. I know I can do this. Wish I could lose the weight just as easily and just as fast as I can gain it! I...

Many Happy Returns Darcy. Loving the pics xx

You're looking fab Darcy, love the dress too xx

Wow Sarah, you're doing fab! Well done.

One day at a time Jacci, you're doing brill xx

Weigh in day and the scales registered a STS this morning. Tad disappointed but after my meal out on Friday I half expected it, and it was a real fun night out so no regrets! :DBetter than a gain too, so onwards and downwards.

You're very welcome, take care xx

So sorry you've lost your FIL Jacci. He sounds like he was a very special man. Maybe having tomorrow off plan and enjoying your Granddaughter's birthday will do you the world of good. Life is too short to not enjoy special days. Just get back on it on Sunday (wagging my finger!) ;) Take care...

Taken a while, but finally in the 12s! 12st 12lbs

Weighed 12st 12lbs on Wednesday so a loss of 2lbs and into the next stone bracket. Back focused and positive, I'm doing this! Got a meal out with friends tomorrow night and looking at the menu they do a mixed grill. So thinking that will be the best low carb option, will order that minus the fries!

Hang on in there Jacci. In the same boat, I can see in my face I've lost weight, but nobody else has noticed :D

Awww good luck Dolly. It is so hard to get back on plan once you've strayed but think of the longer picture. Well worth it, stay strong xx

Hi and good luck Sarah. Hang on in there, by day 4 you should start to feel better by being in ketosis (google the symtoms). You may feel like you have a cold too for a while, but that will soon pass. xx

Just read through your diary. Can resonate with the wardrobe of clothes that don't fit! Hang on in there, this is the year! xx

Just caught up with your diary. A whole stone lost in a month, well done! xx

Sounds and looks blissful Darcy. Wise food choices too! (I'm the old gigglepants btw, changed to my real name. Fresh start and all that) xx

Thanks Jacci, feeling more positive today and yes you're quite right, at least I didn't put any weight on. Keep at it too, you'll get there xx

A whole month on and I weigh .............. 13st still. So thats March wiped out! What a waste :( Need to get my head straight.

Have the most fabulous time Darcy xx

Weighed this morning at 13st. So whatever I put on whilst ill, I have lost already. I'll take that, very happy! Means I've only lost 3lbs in February, but hey it's still a loss. Onwards and downwards, I'm doing this :classic_big_grin: Got a mega important hospital appointment on 3rd April...

Thank you, a great way of looking at it.

Much better now thank you. That's a great way to look at it. Looking at the whole picture. We can do this! :)

Well done with the 4lbs loss Darcy.

Hiya Gem, hope you're still on it? I fell off the wagon so to speak. Was poorly, but back on it today.

Well I spectacularly fell off the wagon! I got quite poorly and had to be looked after, hence Exante went out of the window for almost a full week :( I didn't get to weigh last week, and I've steered clear of the scales since I've been recovering. But will weigh on Wednesday and hopefully the...

Hi Gem. Yeah it's hard. I tend to use my diary purely as a record for myself. Would help if my real life friends showed some support, but they tend to sneer at meal replacement diets! So I keep schtum. Only my closest friend knows, but they don't live local so just keep in touch by phone...

After restarting on January 2nd at 14st, I'm now 13st exactly. Not worth going into the 13s to 12s thread for the sake of 1lb. So albeit a tad premature, I'm jumping straight into here.

Hope you feel better soon Whiz xx

So weighed in at 13st, a 2lbs week loss. Was hoping to read 12st something, next week! But to put it into context I am so happy to have lost a whole stone already :woohoo: in only 6 weeks. Wow!

Lovely photos Darcy, and well done with getting back on TS and registering an impressive 9lbs loss already!

Hiya GemBino, hope you're still managing to stay focused xx

Still on it and still here :) just been unable to post. Updated everything just now. Lost 1lb last week and registered a sts the week before. Bit disappointing but I'm not going to give up, the numbers are still going down :classic_big_grin: albeit slowly. Weigh in day tomorrow and I'm just...

Well done, can't wait to be there myself!

Good luck, hope you're still on it.

Hope your little one's better. Well done staying on track.

Hope your little one's on the mend.

What an interesting piece, thanks for posting it. After an early, cheeky, sneaky peek on the scales this morning and seeing no change yet, reading that article has strengthened my resolve!

Weighed this morning and new scales showing a 1lb loss. Felt much better today, had more energy. Onwards and downwards, life is good! :):whacky068:

Thank you, lost 1lb. Been on it 3 weeks and lost 11lbs now. Would like to lose 60lbs, so 49lbs to go. (14st to 9st 10lbs) Determined to lose it for good this year after yo yoing for quite a while! How about you?

Yeah I'm on Exante, dreading my weigh in tomorrow because of these new bloody scales. But I know I've given it 100% so what will be, will be :D

Hiya Gembino. With you re' the scales, just bought new ones that weigh me heavier too! Keep at it hun, worth it in the end xx

10lbs! Fantastic, well done xx

Keep at it Whizaway, you may be due a whoosh next week xx

Not 100% still. But plodding on thanks. Bit pissed off. My scales were playing up so I shopped around and found some that had great reviews on Amazon, bought them but... they seemed to weigh me 2lbs heavier. So I popped in Boots and got weighed on their scales, then came home and weighed on my...

Week 2 weigh in and I've lost 3 more pounds! Happy :D

Wow! Well done, you're doing fab!

Good luck.

Hope you're feeling better.

Feeling much better today thanks, and managing to drink more. Will have to try it as a mousse, sounds nice. I usually just blitz it with lots of ice. Ah good luck on Lipotrim xx

Thank you :)

Well done with the loss. Stay strong, just accept the compliments with grace and move forward, you've got this!

So, still feeling poorly but improved lots as yesterday went on. Seriously need to up my liquid intake now. I have a health condition that requires me to drink regularly, little and often. But have struggled to do even that these past few days, which is compromising my health. Not good and...

Well done with your loss. Hope you're feeling much better. If it's the same yucky cold + nausea bug I have, then day 5 is a better turning the corner sort of day.

7lbs gone. Half a stone, fantastic :D Very happy with that!

Fantastic loss, well done.

Thank you, still poorly though. I've managed to force myself to have all my packs, but seriously haven't drunk enough water. I know that's the key to this succeeding, but what will be will be. At least this awful cold has kept me on exante, there is always a positive to be found! :D My weigh...

Wow have a great time Darcy xx

Day 3 Friday was another good day. I had sweet and sour noodles, a toffee and nut bar and an apple crumble and custard dessert which was yummy. Today, day 4 is harder. I have an awful cold which has hampered my appetite and is making it hard to drink my quota of liquids! So far I've only had...

Thank you. Gone ok thanks, day 2 almost done :D

Finished yesterday with a banana shake and a lemon cheesecake shake (the lemon cheesecake has to be my most absolute fave exante product ever!) :eat: Today have had the sweet and sour noodles - yummy, and a cocolate orange bar - meh, but satisfied me. Will fit in a shake before I go to bed...

Thank you, and good luck to you too xx

Good luck Starbuck, I started today xx That lemon pancake looks amazing, I'll have to get some on my next order. Also, nice to know Superdrug sell some of the range.

Good luck Avocuddle, I started today. xx

I've restarted today, Good luck xx

Happy New Year Darcy. Wow! You're doing amazing, well done xx

Weighed in at 14st. Was quite ill in the night being sick, so might have even been heavier had it not been for that! Still feeling a bit queasy. Only had the golden syrup porridge so far. Was nice but very sweet, might add cinnamon next time and see if that takes away some of the sweetness...

My umpteenth time trying to lose weight! But here once again, I seriously need to do this for my health now. I've asked for my name to be changed. Lois is my name, I feel if I go by my real name I might be more accountable. I'm also going to change my weigh in day from always weighing on a...

Could you please delete my diary, thank you xx

12st 9lbs, 2lbs closer!

WOW! Congratulations Darcy xx

Wow! Well done that's amazing. Well jel as the youngsters say :D xx

12st 11lbs another 1lb down.

Wow Darcy, that's a fantastic weight loss! Well done xx Love all of the knitted baby items too.

Well done! xx

Hope you feel much bettr soon and manage to get back on plan xx

1lb down to 12st 12lbs! :D

Amazing photos Darcy, thanks for sharing them. You'll lose those 11lbs in no time, like you say onwards and downwards! xx

Wow! Well done, you're on a roll xx

Well done Fatimah, 10lbs in 3 weeks is amazing! xx Les stick at it hun. I ain't got any good advice aside from the fact that only you can make it happen. So get on it and make it happen :1461::D xx

Welcome home Darcy! Looking forward to hearing all about it and any pics xx

Started us a new thread! Though I think you'll race through it, you're doing amazing xx

Finally into the 12s...just 12st 13lbs :D

Have the most fabulous time Darcy xx

Wow! Well done you xx

13st exactly, so next week it is! :p

Hang on in there Shrimp xx

Well done Fatimah, stick at it xx

Just caught up. 45lbs is amazing well done hun xx

Wow Darcy, you're doing amazing this time around. Well done losing your holiday gain and then some. Looking gorgeous xx

I registered a 2lbs loss, so 13st 1lb. Not feeling too hopeful I'll be out of here tomorrow! :confused:

Well done Shrimp xx

Good luck! xx

Well done, let's hope we both can get out of here next weigh in!

Ahh Many Happy Returns Darcy xx

I'm enjoying everything I've ordered this time around. The first time I did Exante I only liked the shakes. Once the weather picks up, the banana shakes are yummy blitzed with ice. Just like a Maccy D shake! ;):D

Good luck with your 100 days at 100%. The cruise at the end of it sounds a fabulous incentive to stay on track! xx

Registered a sts this week, so still 4 more lbs to get out of the 13s.

Good luck! xx The better weather has helped me to stay on track today. Just the thought of another Summer not being able to wear sleeveless summer dresses!

Hope you're well and still on track Shrimp xx

Hope you're having a lovely time Darcy xx

Hiya Rayven, hope you're managing to stay on track. Wishing you lots of luck lady, you can do this xx

Wow fabulous! We should be be working through the next stone together then fingers crossed. Stay on it and god luck xx

Weighed 13st 3lbs this morning so just another 4lbs to go!

I've just finished my week 3 Shrimp, and the penny has finally dropped for me this time around. There's only me that can do this. Me succeeding on this diet is all down to me. I can read and hear all the support I choose to, but ultimately it's entirely down to what I put in my mouth. Nobody is...

Well done with the 1lb loss Darcy, onwards and downwards! xx

Thank you and think positive, we can do this. Slowly but surely we'll get there xx

Hi Miss Mac and good luck! xx

Hi Duchess, welcome and good luck. We can do this! xx

Hi Duchess, nice to meet you and good luck! xx Weighed 13st 5lbs this morning. 6lbs to go :p

Hi Shrimp, welcome back! xx

Wow! Well done Darcy. Such a milestone for you xx

I'm no expert, but I would imagine you're in ketosis now being full of energy. Usual week one losses are around the half a stone mark. Depends on your weight and age I think xx

Fingers crossed for a good result tomorrow xx

Well fingers crossed we're out of here soon! ;)

Whoops so excited to see you, I hit report instead of reply :D Nice to meet you xx I'm sure you'll catch up, I tend to lose my weight slow.

Ahh bet you were made up. Be a while til my tummy shrinks :D

Wow you have had a busy day!

Thank you Mini, fingers crossed I can stay on track this time around! xx

Back again! Restarted last Tuesday at 13st 13lbs, today weigh 13st 7lbs. 8lbs to get into the 12s :D

Hi Darcy, just catching up. You're doing amazing, well done! xx

Horrible here too, just dark and miserable. Day to get on top of the ironing methinks.

Well that went well!! :p Trying again. Only now I have 13lbs to lose in order to get into the 12s :whip: Watch this space ... :innocent002::classic_big_grin:

WOW! Well done Darcy xx

Ahhh thought it was just me not seeing the stats :D Many congratulations Pierce and thanks for the updates Mini xx

Hi Lynne, come back!

Hi Darcy, I'm back yet again! Tail between my legs so to speak :classic_oops: Nice to put a face to the name, lovely xx

Hi all, I'm restarting today too. Good luck!

Happy New Year to all and good luck! My Day one (again!) today. Mumbles I tend to feel quite headachey on my day 4. But stick with it, it does pass.

New year, new start! Weighing 13st 10lbs, would love to leave this thread behind by February. :innocent0001: Fingers crossed!

Hiya Lynne! Congratulations on your marriage. I'm back too (starting tomorrow) hope you and Marge are sticking around. Be good for the much valued support xx

Good luck blondegal. Will be joining you tomorrow xx

Hi Jan, well done with a fantastic week one loss!

This is my second week. Tesco used to sell some yummy ultra slim bars which were ok on exante. I might pop in there next week and treat myself if they still do them.

Staying on track, mainly shakes and out of date bars :D Not a fan of meals and soups. Trying not to weigh until Tuesday.

Well done Les xx

Hope you're having a good day xx

Hi Darcy, hope today's being kind for you :) xx

Hi Laura, hang on in there xx

Good luck Yvonne. I'm a fan of the banana shakes too xx

That does look tempting! :D I'm wanting a sausage roll so bad at the moment, making do with a jam and yogurt bar. Not quite the same Day 3 and still not in ketosis (usually day 3 or 4 for me)

Oh wow! The Maldives, what a fabulous incentive to stay on track!

Yes was devastated.

I hope so too, but make sure you come straight back after your holiday!

Hiya Manda, hope today's been easier xx

Hey ED, welcome back. That sounds wrong as none of us truly wants to be back here. But we are, and all that we can do is to give it another go. There's no shame in trying again, it would be much more shameful to just sit on our fat bottoms and carry on stuffing our faces. So Happy New Year...

Hello Harry! So sorry 2016 wasn't a good year for you, I hope 2017 is going to be a marvelous year for you xx

Hello Darcy. Happy New Year, let's have a successful 2017 xx

Hiya Natalie Sorry you're struggling, hope you find some energy soon. Also sorry you're not pregnant (unless that is a good thing!) xx

Hiya :) I can't wait to be on day four already, well one xx

Good luck. Planning a baby, no bigger motivation xx

Hi Darcy, I have a lot of catching up to do! Some things never change though, Cruising once more ;) have a fabulous time xx

Well done Darcy, you're doing great. 45lbs in 3 months...WOW! Good luck with the job application xx

Good luck Mousey xx

Hi Darcy, good luck with your restart xx

Hi Lynne, fantastic start and many congratulations xx

Hiya, I'm back too. Totally gone to pot without the forum so I'm ecstatic it's back up. Good luck xx

Hi Miss Mac, wise words from ED xx

Onwards and downwards indeed Darcy, have a fab day xx

Morning Susie. xx I had to switch over from that C5 programme after seeing them "treat themselves" to a kebab after losing 1lb :eek: Which I think rather defeats the purpose of dieting! :D The Kebab shop person on the other end of the phone recognised his voice and knew his order! So I should...

Morning Poppy. Good luck with the School, hope they're lenient xx

Good luck Jane. Seems like this is the last year of restarts for a lot of us! xx

Good morning Darcy. Wow! Well done with the 8lbs week one loss, fabulous! xx

Come on Miss Mac, get back on it. I'm totally in agreement with Darcy and Susie, I've had enough of all the restarts on this diet. Let's all knuckle down and give it our best shot. xx

Absolutely! So fed up and tired of all the restarting xx

To be maintaining this time next year would be marvellous :D

Happy New Year Miss Mac. Good luck xx

Happy New Year Poppy and Good Luck with restarting. xx

Happy New Year Susie. Hope you feel much better soon xx

Happy New Year Shrimp. Looking forward to read how successful you are maintaining this year xx

Oh and happy new Year! I'm at a similar starting weight to you, though if I remember correctly I think you lose it faster than me. :D xx

Good Luck and Happy New Year Darcy xx
