Hi all! 1st week on Atkins and down 8lbs, haven't been on this diet for years and as a lady of a certain age I was struggling with the usual suspects WW and SW, I've really enjoyed the first week and even gave up my beloved gin and tonic on Saturday night :D would love a stone of for Christmas...

Hi! Have just completed my first week on induction and have lost 8lbs :D I have been taking cheese,meat or tuna salads to work for lunch and now the weather is getting a bit cooler I would love to take soup, do any of you lovely people have any induction friendly soup recipes ..... I will eat...

Hiya Laura! great to see you are still doing well, I don,t think chicken will have any effect on you as its low carb :) had a bit off a tough time over the last few days, have a new team at work and to put it bluntly "they are a piece of work!" I have IBS and this tends to trigger when I,m...

OMG! I lost 10lbs! and thats adding a meal over the weekend too, I,m well pleased!!!!!!

Can anyone give me any ideas to pep up the strawberry shake, I've loved all the flavours ... even the veg soup! but the strawberry is very bland, any ideas please??? Thanks :D

Well done!! hope I do as well on Monday :)

Hiya Laurie! So glad to see your sticking to it, I've added a 400 cal meal for friday, sat and sun, only way I can take my painkillers, bit of cold at the moment, must admit felt really full, my poor stomach is used to food. Glad to see the high juice hasn't knocked you out of ketosis, don't...

Not been on for while, not feeling too clever, my youngest has decided to pass on his cold :( he shares everything lol! Well decided to add a 400 call meal yesterday and over the weekend as I've been taking painkillers for my banging head and I feel so full after them, only had chicken and veg...

Thank you :D

Hiya Laura! Don't know if I've hit ketosis yet, wasn't hungry when I got up so I suppose thats a good sign, had a chocolate shake this morning ... nice! Having soup at lunch and a bar this evening :) Well done on the water I'm finding it hard at the moment, may have to try that cordial lol! I...

Well done!!

The support is great, like you I'm on day 3 :) nothing booked until christmas thankfully, still going out on sat night but drinking water :D

Well done!

Another honk .... day 3 out of the way, almost :)

Day 3 Well today has been a struggle .... have been cooking meals for all the others and the smell has been driving me insane, but I haven't cheated :) I had a mug full of boullion which took the edge of my craving for something savoury, although I could have killed the lasagne I'd just made...

Hiya Joanne! I read it in an earlier post, I only use half a teaspoon, and green and blacks is pure unsweetened cocoa, if it has an adverse affect at my weigh-in i'll stop it but its just got me through the first few days ... fingers crossed :) ***************************************

Wow Joanne you got me worried then! what a fanatastic achievement, I bet you feel and look great! heres to losing the 9 year old lol!

Hiya Laura Hope you feel better today and that headache has gone :) I,m with you on the water ... I can drink loads at work but when it comes to drinking at home its a no no, have been drinking loads of black tea and coffee so hopefully this will be ok, will be interesting to see if the tesco...

Day 2 done!!! HONK!!!!

So sorry for your loss katie, I lost my dad the same way xxx

Hiya Laura! I'm sure I read it on a thread here that we can have Green and Blacks, its pure cocoa not a drinking choc and quite low carb/cal so don't think half a teaspoon will hurt :o) think I'll be getting some of that cordial, water is pretty boring on its own :( I'm a bit undecided on the...

Day 2 Well so far so good, not had any headaches yet (thank god!) not really had time to think about food today as been having the gas fire and boiler serviced so was dsitracted for a while, have just made a meat and potato pie for the family tea tomorrow and I was fine, the hard part will be...

HONK!!!!!! Day 1 done!!!!

Well day 1 is just about over, no problems except a bit of a windy tummy, had shake in morning, bar mid afternoon and soup this evening, all taste ok so far... just the wind problem, trouble is I have IBS and thought it would help, does anyone else suffer this side effect? bit uncomfortable but...

Hiya Laurie! We are both in the same boat here, I had my first shake this morning, I had the strawberry, wasnt too bad I made mine with 300 mls of water as I thought it might be too strong with 200-250 mls, not a very strong flavour so may try it with a bit less water next time - how much water...

My parcels just arrived! taking youngest son to work then will be able to have a good look at it ... sooo excited :o)

Hiya! I'm starting today too, although I have a bit more to lose than you lol! I see you're a yorkshire lass ... so am I :o) My parcel hasn't arrived yet but due any minute! I'm sure you'll hit your target for christmas, just imagine yourself in a slinky christmas outfit, stick to the plan and...

Day 1 Well this is day 1 and my Exante parcel is due between 10:08 and 11:08, I love that they can be so precise! I had to order it for delivery today as there was nobody in to accept delivery and didn't want to risk it being taken back to the depot. I've had a final blow out this weekend and...

Thank you so much for the replies! I'm going to order it this week ready to start on Nov 1st as I have a week off work , you'll probably get sick of me posting questions that week, I'm one of those people who looks into every aspect of it, another reason I thought I'd give it a go is because my...

Hi everyone! have just found Exante after googling vlcd, a friend of mine has just lost 51lbs in 16 weeks on LL, she looks fabulous but unfortunately I can't afford the £70 a week needed to buy it! this looks like the answer to my prayers, food and me aren't getting on at the moment and I think...

Oh wow, will have to try them ... all of them! they sound delish :o)

don't know if I'm being thick or something but what is MiM? also does anyone know the carb count of oatbran? its the bran not the oatmeal don't know if this is different, thanks Theresa

tesco do it! it's in the section that sells all the gluten free stuff, have just bought 3 bags as I've been making the flaxseed foccacia, my god it keeps you regular ;o)
