Day 130, long time no see! I have just been so so busy! I had a little accident that really damaged my back but fortunately just heavy bruising now so no real harm done, just a lot of pain. Consequently I have been a little bit up and down with my Exante but have been 100% for the last few days...

Dear God, me too! If there was no such thing as cheese I am sure I would be a healthy weight!! xxx

Day 115 and all is still going well...finally lost my 2 stone! xxx

Down is deffo in the right direction Littlemiss and you have not got much to lose now so it is going to come off much more slowly for you. I lose slowly with a lot to lose...I dread to think how much slower it will come off when I have only got a little bit left like you! xxx

Day 115 and all is good but as I am working longer hours at work at the moment I am totally shattered! Wimbledon is the best day out Littlemiss! I am very lucky as one of my friends knows someone on the committee so we get tickets every year! Looks like the weather will be fab as well. I will be...

Day 115, I have been so busy this week I have had no time! All is good and looking forward to going to Wimbledon on Saturday! Hope all is going well for everyone! xxx

Glad to hear your migraine is better today, they are horrid. The only bad thing that I have noticed with dieting is I am definitely getting more bad headaches but that is a price I am willing to pay, no choice really is there. Would love to know why but that is the only downside so far, hubby...

Thanks Charlotte, I love my holidays but they are the one thing that gets in the way of my weight loss, not that I am complaining though! Just need to keep on going now to be the lightest I can get to for my next one in September, as you know I am not the fastest loser but my dream would be to...

My holiday was fab thank you Lucy, back on Exante and weighing in on Monday so I am hoping to lose a pound minimum to get to my 2 stone off! I will not be happy if I don't! How are things going with you? xxx

Getting to the end of day 111, still find the weekends hard but hey ho! Next weekend I am going to Wimbledon, absolutely cannot wait for that! Nothing really planned this weekend, going to weigh in on Monday...keep everything crossed please I simply must get to my 2 stone off at the very least...

Day 111 and I still find the weekends hard!! Went to McKays today and tried on a dress in size large from their Vera Moda collection and it was too tight across my bust and then tried on a McKays brand jumpsuit in an 18 and that was too tight across the hips! I don't go in there that often so...

Blimey, well done Charlotte, that is fabulous! xxx

Well done , you got down to under 35 BMI! xxx

Day 110...how quick is this time going! My shoes are getting loose...didn't think about my feet shrinking! Happy Friday all! xxx

Day 110 and all is good! Wearing trousers and a top that were tight last year and they are very loose now...trousers are actually too big tbh so all is good in my world! Hope you are all fine and dandy too! xxx

Well done Tipp, that is my next BMI goal to get to under 35, may take a wee while however! Just checked and 14 st 8lbs will do it for me! Take care Hun. xxx

Day 108!! In such a good mood today, diet is going fab, wearing a dress that has not seen the light of day for a long time, sun is shining! What is there not to be happy about today! Hope you are all having a good day too!xxx

Day 108 and all is very good, wearing a dress today that I have not worn for so long I forgot I had it!! I really do feel so much better in myself so it is definitely worth keeping at this weight loss however hard it can be...the good deffo outweighs the bad! I am just so shocked my mind is so...

That is the plan littlemiss, I do hope so!! Hope all good with you? xxx

That sounds fine to me, I have got a little bit longer to try to get to my 14lbs off...God but I would be delirious if I manged that! Time will tell!!! xxx

Day 107! Survived the weekend and now am about half a pound heavier than before I went on my holiday...very happy with that! Onwards and downwards now! xxx

Well done Charlotte!! xxx

Well done Darcy, it really is all about your mind set isn't it and yours is obviously in the right place! xxx

Day 107 and I had a sneaky weigh in and I am just about half a pound over my pre holiday weight! Very happy! Went shopping yesterday and bought a top in a size 16, a little snug but totally wearable, bought another top in an 18, an off the shoulder one and it is a little big but at £12 in the...

Day 104 and all is good!

Day 104 and all is good, weekend obviously now and I do find the weekends harder but am working till 1300 so that will keep me out of mischief!! Off out tonight for a date night going to my local theatre to see a swing/jazz band so that will be different. I do feel less bloated now than I did...

Day 104 and had a very good day yesterday! The only problem I have with Exante is I find it so so boring!! I am sure my personality becomes more boring doing this as well! It is amazing what an important part of our lives food is....not just sustenance but socially etc too. I am working till...

Hope you had a good day Charlotte, you are doing so well in spite of everything, I think you are a bloody inspiration tbh! You look so young too, it is such a shame that you are suffering at your age. It does annoy me that in this day and age there are still such limits on what the medical world...

I am sure you will have the best best time! Definitely a trip of a lifetime Darcy!xx

Congratulations on the new job Yoyo. You have still done absolutely fantastically though!xxx

I am exactly the same as long as it is a downward trend I am happy Littlemiss. xxx

I am going to Fuerteventura ( I love it, we go every year!!) for 2 weeks with hubby and then back at work for 3 days and off to Menorca again with another friend! I am really looking forward to September!! I find I am better off not weighing in, it's so funny I am such a slow loser but such a...

Day 102 and back from my hols and back on Exante from today, have ordered another box of supplies! Take care all! xxx

Well day 102, had the best holiday! Lots of relaxation! Back on from today, I cannot bring myself to weigh in yet, will wait until I feel lighter I think! No more hols until September now so would love to be 3 stone down by then. Hope everyone is all good? xxx

You lucky lucky lucky person!!! That sounds FABULOUS! xx

Day 102 and back from my gorgeous wonderful hols! I know I have put weight on but it was sooo worth it so back on the Exante bandwagon from today! Wish me luck!! Hope you are all fine. xxx

Yay!! Well done Darcy!! xxx

Well it is only day 101!!! I am very chuffed with myself!! Have I lost that measly pound to get to 2 stone off....No!! I have had to up my pain killers considerably last week and I am sure that is why my body is holding on to weight but am I going to let it get to me...no! I am off on my hols...

How have I got to day 99! Happy Saturday! xxx

Day 99, cannot believe it! Fingers crossed please that I get to my 2 stone off on Monday before my hols! xxx

Ha Ha! They do get better with time really so you will be fine! xxx

Bed, a hot water bottle and the strongest pain killers I could find which helped a tiny bit until I got sick and could not take anymore for another 4 hours, I am so glad I do not have to endure that now! I feel for all you young women out there. xxx

I know, I always say I am fine when things are their 'normal bad' but when things get dreadful then it is a different story! Hope you are feeling ok today Charlotte? xxx

Day 99! All good on Exante and I took a very strong nerve painkiller last night that I save as a last resort and did sleep better and the pain was a bit better...yay!!! At work at the moment til 13:00 and then hair at 14:00 and then nails after with a little bit of shopping I think! Then...

Day 98, absolutely cannot believe it, just wish I was a faster loser!! Happy Friday! xxx

I remember feeling like I would like to hibernate at that time too Charlotte! I think its criminal that men don't get anything and then we have to go through the menopause as well. Take care and rest up. xxx

Well done on the 2lbs miss and I hope the weather is not a total wash out for you my dear!xxx

I know those scales are tossers aren't they!!! It makes me laugh the power mine have over my mood, a loss I am very happy, a gain well, I am totally not happy! I totally agree with what Lucy has said, you have done brilliantly, I can only dream of being in the 13's. Take care Hun. xxx

You too my dear, I know you understand... I hate living with pain but even more hate having gotten used to living with pain if you know what I mean? Just annoys me that I have lost virtually 2 of my excess stones and it has got worse!! No rhyme or reason is there? Have a lovely day Hun. xxx

I can remember in the old days when I got TOTM I used to put on at aleast 4/5 lbs before, you will lose than in no time Charlotte as it is not 'normal' weight just that yucky old bloat. Take it easy Hun. xxx

Thank you Darcy! I am certainly trying!!! Hope all good with you. xxx

Day 98 and all is good although I am the tiredest I think I have ever been. My back is being very painful at night and I am sleep deprived! I am the sort of person who needs their sleep as well so with that and working long hours at work I am barely awake really, roll on 20:00 when I can go home...

Day 98 and all is going well although I am so shattered doing these long days at work! Hey ho though, holiday on Monday! My back has been really really playing up at night the last week or so and is either keeping me awake or just waking me up and then I cannot go back to sleep. I woke up with...

75 lbs to go now! So I have lost just over a quarter of what I need to lose...fab times!

I know that is the best thing about having a fairly early menopause! I am 58 now and have not had a period for at least 12/13 years..it is real freedom! xxx

To be honest Thinmint I have never added anything to them, I have not the bouillon either but what I do have is a tiny bit of milk in my coffee...I cannot handle it black and it has not affected me at all. I hope that helps hun. xxx

I remember those PMS times, one good thing about getting older is I do not have to go through that anymore! Take it easy Hun. xxx

Hope you feel better after a sleep and wow!! What a long fast...well done you! xxx

It does not matter why Hun, whatever you are doing is certainly working for you! Well done! xxx

Fingers crossed Dolly!! xxx

Well done Dolly, you are doing great!! xxx

I It is still a loss and if you are still a bit bloated that can make a difference. Let's hope this weather improves as it is certainly not like summer! Take care! xxx

Day 96 and again all is good, I think Exante has become a habit now! Happy Wednesday all! xxx

Long way or short way, as long as we get there it really does not matter! xxx

Day 95 and all is good again, cannot wait to lose 1 more pound and then I will be at 2 stone off. I am quite amazed!! Happy Tuesday all! xxx

Day 95..........cannot believe how quickly the time has gone! Had a great albeit wet day off yesterday and long day at work today! Cannot believe I am 1lb off two stone gone... love this diet! xxx

You are both doing really well, just keep going and we will get there in the end!! xxx

That can always wait! xxx

Day 95, time goes so fast when you are having fun! Long day at work today 08:45 -20:00 but all is good! Cannot wait to go on holiday, roll on next Monday!! Surely I should make my two stone off by then! Happy Tuesday all! xxx

Different things suit different people Sarah, Exante seems to be the only diet I can do that actually takes weight off and even then it is slow! Hope you are feeling better hun. xxx

Another 1 lb...yay!! Littlemissnaughty - 1lbs/16lbs BexT89 - 2.5lbs/17.5lbs Ravenous - +.5/7.5lbs Purpleroses - 3/7lbs LadyF - 2/21lbs Jacci48 - 8/14lbs Green eyed monster -0/7lbs Pratainua - 6.4/ 14lbs Blubell._.0422 23lbs/40lbs Sammyantha 2/9 Nanny Doreen - 2.5/10lbs Sammie88 0/7lbs...

Day 94!! Hopped onto the scales and another pound off so now on 27 lbs, one more till 2 stone gone...yay!! Happy Monday all! xxx

You too Charlotte! xxx

Day 93 and feeling fine if a little bit hungry...hopefully that means I am burning off some fat! xxx

15 st 6 so finally nearer the 14's than the 15's....this is deffo taking it's time but I will get there!

Day 93 and all is good in Exante land! Nothing really planned for today and day off work tomorrow....yay!! Happy Sunday all!! xxx

Well day 93!!! Not got much planned today, a small bit of shopping and we will go to café Nero with our dog and I will have a peppermint tea and my first bar! I feel lighter today so that is a very good thing, I might hop on the scales tomorrow so we shall see then if I am lighter or if my body...

This diet is both the easiest and the hardest diet ever but just keep on and it works, I lose very slowly but it is still coming off faster than any other diet I have done. I am bored as hell tbh on this but I keep saying to myself I will probably be on this for the rest of the year and then...

Yay!! Well done Darcy!!xxx

You are doing great Jess...happy Sunday! xxx

Day 92!! Cannot believe it and have had another good dieting day today..yay! xxx

Day 92...I do find Exante very boring but it does seem to be the only thing that works for me so onwards and downwards...the weekends are harder, that's for sure! Happy Saturday! xxx

Day 92 and had a good day! Met a friend for lunch and she had lunch and I had my bar but had a very good chinwag so a fab day was had. She says she can notice the weight coming off my face so that was lovely to hear! Fairly lazy day to be had tomorrow and off work on Monday so may go to my...

Hope they get you sorted soon Sarah. I am fine although I do find Exante boring! I keep telling myself it is probably just for this year and then next year I will be able to eat real food but sensibly, we will see! You take care.xxx

You certainly deserved that fish pie Charlotte! xxx

Well done Charlotte, I would have to cut my arm off for that! You must be so so pleased Hun! xxx

Day 91, I do not think I have ever stuck to a diet for so long, loving Exante! xxx

Day 91 and all is good, next aim is to get to under 37 BMI, baby steps and all that! Happy Friday all! xxx

Day 91!! A long day at work today, here until 8 and then it is the weekend and I am not working Saturday!! Yay!! Wearing a top I bought abought 2/3 years ago that I have never been able to wear and now it fits so a very good day!! Happy Friday! xxx

I am going to Menorca for a week with my oldest friends we are all around 55/58 and have known each other for 40 years, we do have the best time! xxx

Thanks Charlotte!! Trying my summer clothes on to work out what to bring to Menorca and because of my weight loss 2 of my maxi dresses are too long....weird but happy anyway! xxx

Menorca just for a week with my friends, we go away every year now and have the best time! Truly cannot wait!! xxx

I went to Chicago for a week a few weeks ago and had about 9/10 food days Lucy! I am on a nerve pain med that not only causes weight gain it also stops weight loss. My GP is aware I am on Exante and she was surprised I have lost as much as I have as by all accounts weight loss is hard on these...

Started Exante on 24/2 at 17st 4lb...yuck! 03/03 16st 9lb...9 bs off! 10/03 16st 7lb..11lbs off! 16/03 16st 6.5lb..0.5 off..total 11.5lbs off! Please God a whoosh next week! 23/03 16st 4lb.....2.5 lbs off...total 1 stone..yay!! 31/03 16 st.…..4 lbs off...total 18lbs....very happy...

Day 90 and so glad yesterday is over! Weighed in today and have now lost whatever I put on in Chicago and an extra 1lb so now on the downward trend! 2lbs to go till 2 stone...yay!!! Happy Thursday!! xxx

Two weeks back on Exante after my holiday and have lost my gain which must have been massive and another 1 lb so on the downward trend again now!!! Littlemissnaughty - 1lbs/16lbs BexT89 - 2.5lbs/17.5lbs Ravenous - +.5/7.5lbs Purpleroses - 3/7lbs LadyF - 2/21lbs Jacci48 - 7/14lbs Green eyed...

Day 90...OMG!!! I have lost the weight I put on on holiday and another 1lb, so so pleased as I have now proved to myself I can get back on Exante. At the end of the day we all have to live our lives and I am fortunate a lot of my life revolves around holidays so to know I can go away and then go...

You look and have done absolutely fantastic Bert, what an inspiration! xxx

I can see I am getting a bit of loose skin on my tummy and on my upper arms and do you know it does not bother me at all! I think it is showing the fat is going and that is the main thing! With my clothes on I will still look better than I did! 20 mins left at work, I have been here since 07:45...

Well done Jess! xxx

Well done Darcy, I have been the hungriest today I have been since I started...I could eat my own arm! xxx

Good luck Dolly! I would love to see the 14's before I go away on the 17th June but we will see, my weight is very happy where it is unfortunately!xxx

You look amazing Lucy, I started at the same sort of weight and am about the same weight as you now but am 5 4 so you look a lot lighter, those 3 inches make a difference! Well done! xxx

Bless you, thanks! I am working till 8 so cannot be naughty while I am here. I think I will have my third meal when I get home about 830 and then go to bed so I can say goodbye to this day! xxx

I think I am the hungriest today I have ever been whilst on Exante...it is going to be a very long day! It is fab though finding my clothes are getting looser and just feeling lighter as well if you know what I mean. I had to have my first meal at 11 and will have my second at 2 and then I am...

Thank you so much Thinmint, I am, however, a very slow loser. Today I am so starving I could eat my own arm to be honest so not having an 'easy' day at all! Good luck! xxx

Day 89......all is good but I am so starving I had my first meal at 11:00 which is very unusual for me...let's hope that my body is burning lots of fat today!! Take care all! xxx

Blimey day 89! All is good but I am literally starving today, it is funny how it all works. Happy Wednesday all! xxx

Well done you! xxx

PS I know what it is like after an mri...agony!

Bless you Charlotte, I have problems lying down too, I have a bad shoulder as well, good old arthritis and cannot lay on my back or my tummy because of my back. I can only lie on my left shoulder but after a while that causes hip pain and then sciatica so I have to move! One of the reasons I...

I know....lying down is the only way I am comfy or sitting with a hot pad...whatever the weather unfortunately. I always have a fan nearby! xxx

Totally agree, standing is the worse thing. I was born with too narrow a spine...only part of me that is narrow unfortunately! xxx

Felt like a lot, the back could cope with walking relatively but could not cope with shopping...it hates standing so that annoyed me big time I can tell you! In the past shopping was my fave pastime! I use a walking stick if I am walking any distance and that does help a little but standing well...

Just had a quick look, you are gorgeous, loved your hair and dress.....what a fab experience for you all! xxx

Ha ha! That has made me feel better...my back has paid me back big time since I have returned! xxx

I cannot do loads of walking because of my back but I did on average 13000 steps a day and still put on tons!! xxx

Just reading some of your diary Hun. I live with chronic pain and I know how debilitating it is. I can still work however and will keep going as long as I can. I take my hat off to you Charlotte, you are doing so well in very difficult circumstances, you should be very proud of yourself my dear. xxx

Well done you, I think I put on at least 7 lbs on my week in Chicago. xxx

Day 88 and all is fine! Happy Tuesday all! xxx

Day 88 and all is good in my world....I am feeling lighter by the day...love Exante! Take care all! xxx

Well day 88! Wearing a lot of my summer clothes from last year ( and before!) and they are all so loose...I just love it! Happy Tuesday all! xxx

I love reading your diary Darcy, you are very like me with your year being punctuated by hols! Unfortunately mine are shorter but you wait until we retire!!! Well done on your 8lbs!!! I am sure you can lose your 16 lbs by the time you go away again. TBH the main thing is you keep on going back...

Day 87, was a bit bad on Friday, worked Saturday and had a lovely day out yesterday so have been a busy Jacci! In the main Exante has now become my way of life as even with picking on Friday I knew I would hop back in on Saturday. Who would ever have thought it! Take care all and have a...

Day 87!! Have had the busiest weekend but most of it , other when I was working was fab! I was a naughty Jacci on Friday, just felt a bit down, do not know why. It does make me cross that I am still an emotional eater but hey ho I used to just be a 24/7 eater without emotions getting involved...

Day 87, have had a massively busy few days so have not been on here! Some just because of work....not so good and some because of nice things...yay!! I was a bit naughty on Friday...don't know why, just felt a bit fed up but have been spot on since then, still have not weighed in, I almost feel...

In a word Sarah....no!! I do feel lighter though which is the main thing! Hope all good with you? xxx

Thank you so much, that is so nice of you to say! I am definitely not amazing though!! I am amazed at how long I have been doing this however. I think because I am doing this for my health as much as vanity that has really helped a lot. I think my mind is in the right place so I am just trying...

A skinny legend....I like that! I am just so surprised at how relatively easy I am finding it. My main issue is that it is boring, you do not realise how much your life revolves around food until it is taken out of the equation. Still, I am going on holiday on 17/6 so will eat again there and...

I cannot believe it is day 83 and I am still on Exante......I may be a slow loser but I have lost more doing this than I would on any other eating plan. I have a new order coming in today which is great as I have run out of my fave strawberry bars and I am definitely missing them! Take care...

Day 83 and feeling really good today! Had the absolute day from hell at work yesterday but went through the whole day not eating as I forgot to bring a bar in with me! Cannot believe I managed that! Hunger has definitely subsided again now. My clothes also seem to be getting looser and looser...

Day 83 and I am feeling really good, feel lighter and am wearing a top that I have not worn since last summer and it is so much looser...yay! I may weigh tomorrow as I have totally lost the bloated feeling I had when I got back from Chicago. Going to see a couple of friends tonight and she does...

Ha Ha! I hate it when that happens! xxx

Day 82 and had a good day yesterday so all is good in Jacci's world! Take care all! xxx

Day 82!!!! Had a good day yesterday, had my friends over last night for dinner and did not have any problems, mind you I think I was talking too much to eat!! Have placed another order for 100 items so that will keep me going for a while, I have run out of most of my fave things. The paste bars...

I know, I have had that now a couple of times and it is such a boost Yoyo! Well day 82 and I have just placed another order to arrive tomorrow as I have run out of all my faves! I have totally forgotten to bring anything for lunch today so will have to eat nothing until I get home tonight as I...

Yep, we do feel the hunger after being naughty!! Have a lovely evening. xxx

Just think of the weight you will be when you go Dolly! xxx

Well done Dolly!!! Yay!!! Have you been to Rome before? Hubby and I went quite a few years ago, it is stunning! Take care my dear! xxx

So glad to hear you are finally feeling better Darcy, take care and good luck! xxx

Very well done Dolly!! You must be so pleased! I will be beside myself when I get into the 14's....I think it is about 10 years since I have been there!! Keep going my dear! I do not exercise because I have a back condition, on TS they recommend 20 mins of gentle exercise a day I believe. xxx

Day 81 and all is good...cannot believe I started this on 24/2! Something must be right in my head now! Take care all! xxx

Day 81 and all is still good...feel lighter than when I got back from Chicago so will weigh in this week! Fingers crossed all! xxx

Day 81 and I feel in my body like l have lost the holiday weight...will weigh in when I can pluck up the courage!! Hope you all have the best day...almost glad to be at work today as it is so much easier when I am working! Hope you all have a fab day! xxx

Day 80,cannot believe how quickly the time is going! Have decided I would love to be in the 14's for my hol on June 17th...onwards and downwards!xxx

Day 80 and feel fairly comfortably back on the Exante wagon again, hunger has gone...yay!! Take care all! xxx

Day 80 and all is good with my world! Hope all is going well with you all, WI sometime in the week! On my next holiday on 17th June so would love to be 14 something by then.. we shall see. The weight does not come off quickly unfortunately. Mind you, still quicker on Exante than anything else...

Wow Yoyo well done!! I am still nervous about getting on the scales but can feel some of the holiday weight is coming off! I would dearly love to have that jeans problem!! You have done so so well!!xxx

You have not ruined it, you have just had a blip...just keep on going and you will be fine Hun. xxx

Lovely to hear Yoyo, you definitely deserved it, you have done so well!! I have another holiday on June 17th so back on till then! I then do not have another holiday until September so can really get stuck into Exante until then. My goal is to get to target or as near as, we know I am a slow...

Hi Yoyo, I did enjoy it big time!! How was your holiday? xxx

It is falling of you! Well done! xxx

Holiday was amazing, goodness knows how much I have put on however!! If you are due on I am sure that is why you have not lost, you will probably see a drop in the next few days Hun. Take care! xxx

Well done Blubell and have a fab holiday littlemissnaughty! xxx

Day 77, all good and not hungry at the mo! Feeling less bloated now, all that eating on my hols did make me feel very bloated! Not too sure when I am going to weigh in as I don't want to weigh in and have put loads on from the holiday...we will see! Have a fab day all! xxx

Day 76 and have had a very good day! I have been hungry though but I know that will pass in a few days! xx

Talking about being a bit 'blocked' I take senna tablets every night and that has helped quite a bit! I took Dulcolax and thought I was dying so never again will I take those! Take care! xxx

Fingers crossed you will see the 13's again soon!! xxx

Just back from holiday Lucy so went back on Exante yesterday! Looks like you are doing great! Well done! xxx

Day 76 and had a brilliant day yesterday, will be honest though I am absolutely starving today! No pain no gain though! Have a fab day all! xxx

Well done fighting that binge Dolly, I had the Thai chicken soup last night, I really like that one. Have a good day Hun. xxx

Day 76, all good yesterday but could eat my arm off this morning!xxx

Just been having a read through and noticed you were saying weight loss is harder the older you get....too right I am 58 now and it is very hard!xxx PS good thing is no TOM!! Every cloud................

I love the strawberry bar, it is my favourite Dolly! Well done you...we just have to keep on going!! xxx

Well, lunchtime at work so having a lemon bar, I will be honest my stomach is rumbling big time and I am so tired I could fall asleep at work but that is jet lag...that is my excuse anyway! My back is not good because I did quite a bit of walking while we were away but I am hoping that will have...

Thanks Dolly, to be honest not quite back on it as I should have started again on Monday!! Hope all good with you? xxx

Day 75...back from my hols and back on Exante from today! xxx

Day 75, back from my amazing hols and back on from today! xxx

Day 75!!!!! Back from my amazing hols and back on Exante from today! I have not weighed in as I dread to think what I have put on but onwards and downwards from now on till my next holiday on June 17TH! Hope all is good with you all? xxx

Day 74 and last WI..stayed the same so I wanted to lose 28lbs before my hols and have lost 25 so more than happy with that! It is amazing how light I feel at 15st 7 which is not light in the slightest!! Take care all! xxx

You have a fab holiday too Yoyo, you have done so so well!xxx

Last WI today and I have stayed the same! I wanted to lose 28lbs before my hols and have lost 25 so I am more than happy with that! Take care all and I will come back after my holiday and aim to be in the 14's for my holiday in June! xxx

Good luck girls! Exante is the easiest and hardest diet I have ever been on but it really does work, just one day at a time. This forum has made my journey much easier, I love the support and talking to people who really know what it is like. Take care girls! xxx

I am never cold but have been freezing since I have been on Exante, I really believe it is a side effect. Hope you feel better tomorrow Hun. xxx

Bless you Tumbledown, I think you will do better! I am a slow loser because of some pain meds I take daily according to my GP, I just take it day by day and days like today that I found very hard it can be minute by minute. It is so worth it though,,,,good luck Hun! xxx

Well done Yoyo, that is incredible!! Enjoy your holiday and enjoy wearing those clothes!! xxx

Well done Jen, you are doing brilliantly! I definitely find the weekends harder, especially a long weekend like this one! 10lbs is fab, this Exante does work and is the easiest and at the same time the hardest of diets! We just have to keep on keeping on! Take care Hun. xxx

Just keep going Kiwi and you will be fine, I have found it so helpful posting on here for both the support and the accountability! Take care Hun. xxx

Day 72, got to sleep at 5 because of my back but it does feel easier today thank goodness. Strangely enough I was born with too narrow a spine, the only part of me that is naturally narrow and my God when it hurts it really does hurt! There is surgery but it is very dangerous so obviously not...

Day 71 and all is good with Exante but I do feel a bit low today, my back is not good so have not really been able to do anything so that is probably why. I guess we all get down days don't we. Hope you have all had a fab Sunday! xxx

Day 70 and would you believe it I was not the best yesterday, still back on today! At work so will not have my first meal until about 3 when I get home..late eating suits me best! Happy Saturday all! xxx

Thank you Lucy! Work is ok but I am having to spend all day ringing people who thought they were going on a ferry to Spain very soon that it has been cancelled...deep joy! Hope you are having a lovely day! xxx

Bless you Yoyo, I am not but just atm seem to have a lot of willpower! I have to make the most of it as we all know things can change. Just had my fave strawberry bar for lunch and will now guzzle lots of water, I do struggle to drink enough tbh but feel so much better when I do! Take care Hun. xxx
