Hiya, are the new packs showing up on the website? I just looked and can't find them! And are there only the three types of bar available, muesli, chocolate and lemon? Happy Friday everyone! sue

Honk day 6 (new to exante but love this thread!)

That loss is amazing, congratulations! sue x

Really helpful list, thank you, I'm printing it right now! sue x

Hi everyone and good luck Adam, I'm a week in too and it's going well so far, but i know from messing around with vlcd's before, the more times you go in and out of k the harder it is! So am being 100% this time and have a meal out on Sat which I now don't want to go to but can't get out of...

Hi I'm a week into Exante, being 100% and loads of water, but the ketostix kept showing nothing, so I bought some from Boots on wednesday and they showed I am, so I think it must have been the ones I bought online that were useless! I think they sometimes show strongest in the morning, before...

Hi everyone, would you mind if I join this to keep me on track? I've messed around for ages now with losing and regaining, ending up with being the biggest I'd ever been in January. I found Exante for the first time, and though I prefer 4 packs I've stuck to it since starting last weekend...

Hi everyone, Sorry to be boring and cheesy but I had a lovely valentines day! B bacon and mushrooms L cheese and celery S pate D omelette with ham I had coke zero yesterday and loved it - but today feel quite bloated - could that be why? Suzie x

Hi Jane and Glenn, I decided to swap from shakes and the temptation to 'cheat' by eating real food, to Atkins too - just over a week ago - and it has been a pleasure! When you feel like actually eating something there is always something you can have without breaking any rules, or even an...

Hi Leese, welcome and I hope you enjoy Atkins. For me, it doesn't seem much like a diet, just a few simple rules that you stick to and apart from that, eat like anyone else!

Thanks Jim, I put my weight loss on that thread too - it's so good I said it twice! Have a good Friday all

Your own fan club Jim, wow! B eggs L salmon D chicken I'm feeling excited at 3lb loss - have been on wii fit and going for walk to celebrate!

Well done Annie! 3lbs off for me! I'm very happy and in ketosis too! And not hungry!

What are Jim's Angels? So many questions, sorry!

I knew there had to be benefits to peeing girl-style, sitting down!

oh no, get well soon xx

Thank goodness for that! I'll have to buy some and give it a try. Maybe dipped in splenda (joking!!) x

You're in ketosis well done!!! Have a great day. I'm waiting for sticks to arrive but once they do and I know I'm in ketosis too I'll have this smug smile on my face all day!

Morning I think I'll have salmon and cheese, tuna mayo for lunch, then taking the kids for an Indian meal with friends tonight - so maybe tandoori chicken. Or is there anything else that's ok for induction? First weigh in tomorrow since starting atkins so I'm not taking any chances!

Ok, I know I'm an Essex girl, but seriously - what are 'hairy lumps' Jim? Btw I once saw a Japanese lady on a plane eat a babybel with the red wax on!!

Morning, Omelette, smoked salmon and cream cheese, turkey casserole, cheese for snack Have a good day everyone!

Thanks for that Laura, I didn't know it was good for cooking with x

Well done, that's fantastic

Haha, what's devil food? The cream/splenda thing? It's only as a last resort! lol

Hi Em, your weight loss so far is amazing, really well done! xx

Hi, I've been told by most people that splenda is the one to buy, not sure why though! I've also found some splenda tablets which don't have any after taste. I think it's because there are health questions about the other sweeteners.

Someone yummy for tea could really spice up a Tuesday! I guess I'll settle for something nice like roast chicken!

Aah, she's so cute! I think they make a bucket saddle attachment so riders can take their babies out when they're tiny - my daughter's horse mad and says she'll be using one if she ever has children. We'll have to make sure she gets one of those baths too! Such beautiful photos Jim x

I have a sweet tooth sometimes - at others it's just not a problem - but when I feel in danger of giving in to a chocolate craving, and hardly ever! I have a little double cream, stir in some splenda and mix in a tiny amount of chopped mixed nuts, not even a teaspoonful. I stir it up and make...

Hello Wendy and good luck for tomorrow! Remember to drink loads of water, it really can make the difference xx

Morning! Bacon this morning, then lunch with a friend at our local restaurant so prob chicken or fish, this evening I'm cooking for my older kids as well as the 3 at home - maybe spag bol, then I can have the bol if I don't put much onion in and keep it meaty.

Hi Lucy, I'm very new here too, still learning everything. Where did you buy your ketosticks, if you don't mind me asking? Also, does pureeing vegetables raise the carb count? Like fruit juice has a higher value than the whole fruit? Though I guess it can't because mashed cauli is fine. I...

Thankyou, I'm looking forward to shrinking too!

LOL that's my new name then!

B 2 egg omelette L tuna steak, babybel D Chicken baked in foil with mozzarella and basil leaves S - not too sure yet! Is sugar free jelly ok on induction? 1 x coffee with cream, 1 x black, 3litres water I think I have a weird craving for mashed cauliflower!

Hi Becky, I'm new here but everyone seems so friendly, I'm sure you'll find the motivation to keep going, Sue x ps sorry about your husband's job, hard times for so many people

Hi Josie, at least you got straight back on track - and your advice shows we can't get complacent - that moment of madness is always waiting for us to let our guard down! I'm new here but even I can see how helpful it is to be able to 'confess' to people who knows how it feels! Good luck for the...

Hello Jim, I feel a bit like a stalker but since finding the site I've been reading bits of your weight loss story and all your help and advice to people, and you're amazing!

Hi Annie I've just started on Atkins too and will be weighing on fridays with you! I don't know what will happen at first as I've been on shakes and v low calorie - so even atkins induction food might stick like glue! It's just nice to eat food so I'll stick with it. Good luck x

Thank you for the welcome. It feels lovely to eat eggs for breakfast - and there's no cheating involved!

Thank you! I've done a Tesco online shop for tomorrow - ordered lots of nuts, then realised how dangerous that might be and crossed them off the list for now! xx

Hi, I've just found the website and joined too. I was a lighter life returner, have done three weeks and lost 10lbs, now aim to follow Atkins, eat real food and try not to overeat while I lose the final stone in time for my daughter's wedding in October. More worrying a beach holiday in March...
