    Do you visualise your weightloss?

    I'm sat here in a wrinkled t-shirt! Eschew society's cruel demands for crease-free clothing! One time at WW, the leader brought in a model-thingy of a half-stone of fat, all orange and gelatinous. I picture that when I'm thinking of what I lost. I also look at pictures of myself looking...

    exante in administration

    Hmm, the original company was called Exante Inc and based around Covent Garden - does that sound familiar to anyone :-p (actually they've taken off the website any reference to Covent Garden, but I distinctly remember this...) Companies house listing for the current incarnation: WebCHeck -...

    Skin Firming Cream

    In asda there is a bio-oil fakey called re-gen oil for around half the price - the ingredients are much the same, and having used both, I can't say there's a great deal of difference. I have to say, I've had loads of compliments on my skin since starting this diet, one of the best benefits I...

    Blorpy's Exante Diary

    Hello my lovelies! Well this week I have lost a whole 1 pound. As I explained before, I've been stupid. It's been half-term for me, and that means I've been left alone in the house - and when that happens, let's just say my demons come at me full force. I won't go into too much detail, but...

    Hello! I'm not dead, it's just half term and seeing as I don't have to be in front of a PC all day, I'm determined not to be! Middle of week 3, and I have to say I've done POO. I've been cheating big style. It's so silly - having done diets in the past I kind of know how many carbs I can eat...

    Hehe, pee-pee sticks are what Ketostix are known as in my house - As well as being a weigh-a-holic I'm also a pee-a-holic, I guess I just like to have it affirmed that all this money I'm spending is working. It has been an up and down week - I'm not one of these people who just gets into...

    Little things that lift the mood

    Now I bit my boyfriend's head off when he said my face looked thinner 'Of course it doesn't, I've only lost half a stone!' But apparently Ketosis has a funny old effect on the face and makes it look thinner, don't ask me how! I guess I have that mean and hungry look *shifty eyes* The work...

    10 days in, 10 pounds gone. Yes, I did it again and weighted myself this morning! I really do punish myself, I have my full length mirror with my scales in front, and for maximum effect I weight with minimum clobber, so it's horrific all round. Mind you, I do seem to be taking better care of...

    I really want to honk today, I could do with releasing some wind! I only ate the choco, as as much as i brush my teeth/spray my gob, there's a prevailing taste of poop in my mouth :'( DAMN YOU STINKY KETO-BREATH!

    An apology

    And I'm off YAYYYYYYYYYYYY. As soon as I'd typed that I realised I didn't feel quite so icky and VOILA it's gone. I'd actually had tests done not too long ago for possible PCOS so I think I'm okay on the hormone front :) My kitten's on my knee and he smells of poo :(

    comparison exante v cambridge for taste?

    I've never tasted CD, but I vastly prefer the shakes on Exante. They do have less flavour, but they taste more natural, more like real milk and not like rancid Marvel milk like LL. Both lots of bars are pretty cardboardy, but nice and filling. Apart from the Thai Chicken, I find the soups...

    Hi Just starting today

    Hi Linda! Just go for it! The first few days will most likely be emotional, hungry and quite poo in general, but once that's over, the *physical* hunger will disappear :D We can all work on defeating the emotional or habit-based hunger together! I like the shakes cold actually without...

    I just like the scientific excuse for not doing any cardio. Saying that I do get pretty out of breath doing the core training so I at least get the benefits of that too. Plus I like bouncing around on my gym ball :D I got these lovely coffee bag/pouch thingies from Sainsbury's - I do love a...

    Ketostix - what colour?

    I have a love/hate relationships with those pee-pee sticks (as they are called in my very mature house lol) I'm nearly always dark purple, even with the tanks of water I drink, and I can't say my losses are any better than anyone elses :) PS. Well done on your 9 pound loss!

    6 pounds is amazing! Well done you for banishing those thoughts we all have. I watched 'Fat Families' last night and it was both aversion therapy and motivation for what I'm doing.

    Good morning fellow Exanters! It's day 4, and I took Stardreamer's advice to weigh myself this morning, and I have lost an astounding 7 pounds! (Mind you, when I initially weighed it was TOTM and I'd eaten a full Betty's Afternoon Tea to myself, so probably a bit up!) It's getting better...

    Even though I've elected to do exante (same principle, slightly cheaper and no counsellor) I'm still lurking around the CD forums as the Exante section is so dead. Furthermore, I posted and introduction on the forum, and a woman replies with what I can only describe as a personal attack. Not...
