Feeling pretty low today. So don't want to give in. I'm not hungry but feel as though I want to cheer myself up with food. Not got anything planned this weekend so have nothing to look forward to. Probably doesn't help. I want to keep away from alcohol, so I can't go out cos I know I lose my...

Well my stuff has arrived yipee!! Have tried the banana shake and I like it also had a nibble on a bar just to taste also pretty good. Going to have the cottage pie meal for dinner and depending how I feel maybe some chicken for supper. I will get this 2 stone off!!!

Pretty easy just totally cut all carbs eating chicken salad and eggs plus one low carb shake (phd one) haven't had any headaches got to put that down to the shake as I've done Atkins loads and always had headaches. Hope that helps xx

Thank you. I really hope it'll be easier and I'm sure that the support on here will help xx

Thanks x

My order is due tomorrow. Been cutting carbs for 2 days and I'm in ketosis!!! really pleased. Hoping that by the time I get my stuff I'll be well into it and the choice of different stuff will help me stick to it. I am really focused this time.

Will do ?

Thanks everyone. Getting quite excited now, cutting my carbs so that hopefully it'll be a little easier. Hoping I don't get the headaches I've had from lack of carbs b4. Been ok today ?

That's pretty much what I have ordered and banana shakes. I did exante a couple of years ago but didn't like the soup to powdery.

Thanks for the advice and I'm gonna need luck i can get as I have been unsuccessful at this sort of diet before but here hoping x

He's RLC attached to 16 med reg. was in the infantry for 8 years then transferred 4 years ago and we haven't stoped moving since lol

Yes the fat is an issue, but also I find it such a pain having to cook different meals for everyone in my family. I have done atkins before lost loads of weight but found doing maintenance impossible to do long term as the carbs tend to creep up and I end up gaining again. I need to be able to...

HI everyone love to know how you're finding this diet. At the moment I'm doing Atkins but from what I have read about this diet it seems more sustainable in the long term. So my plan is to continue with Atkins until I'm almost at my goal and then switch to this plan for the last few pounds and...

yep we were posted here in december I hate it. hope to only be here for a year or so.

probably cos I get bored easily. I really need to focus this week. I ate massive amount of carbs this week and drank far too much. It will not happen again this week.I will also up the exercise.

I'm so cross with myself.I've everything wrong in the last week where has my will power gone and why is it so hard when you're down to the last stone?:mad:

In the new book it suggests having half a teaspoon of salt every day up to you how you take it it says in 2 mugs of broth. Doing this I have felt much better this time as I have done Atkins many times before I tended to get a headache and feel very tired on the first day it was as though my...

Thank you all Easy then brilliant always got my knickers in a twist about it the last time I did it but that was about 7 years ago hope it works as well for me this time.

:confused: But I still don't understand how to work out the net carbs with British food labeling if anyone can help me I would really appreciate it thank xxx :)

Not the same but I had a hysterectomy a year ago they left my ovaries. I get premenstrual symptoms including wanting to snack all the time and swelling up with water. Maybe your HRT is inducing such symptoms. xxx

Not good, hope you work it all out xxx

I really hope so Maia Thanks everyone xxx

Yeah well done xxx

:)I lost 6lb!!!!!! my first weigh in I'm so pleased didn't think I lose so much because I'd been on slimming world for 5 weeks prior to starting this diet. I would like to thank all of you who have given me support this week xxx;)

Woop Woop!!!! congratulations

WOW well done you!!!!!! Think I'll be getting me some exercise lol

Hello everyone:wave_cry: I'm really really hungry I think..... I'm on my 4th day and have gone into ketosis. The thing is I've been looking after my niece she 11 months and didn't sleep much last night so I'm very tired and think that may be why I'm craving food. This is the first bad day I've...

Thanks Gina Looking forward to my journey hoping to lose about a stone in a month.got everything crossed. I read lots of posts on here before I decided which VLCD to do, exante appealed on price, its more natural and the fact that the only person I have to answer to is myself . Well I'm on...

Good luck

My husbands on about starting it now as well not sure if it's really his sort of thing .He's really fussy about food, But he needs to drop his BMI for work, so we'll see what happens could be very intresting as he's a moody so and so at the best of times. On the plus side he's working away...

Package from exante due to turn up tomorrow. Have been doing slimming world and have lost a stone but things are slowing down and have decide that this is the way to go. My friend has been has been doing CD and I'm jealous of her rapid weight loss but very determine that I will lose weight and...
