Hi Lisa, Well done on the 7lb loss! I find mornings are the worst for hunger pangs, I drink a large glass of water or two while I'm making my coffee and that always helps. It's the same throughout the day, hunger pangs = more water needed. Good luck with week 2! Leese

That's fantastic, well done! I always make sure I down 2 litres of water a day and then treat myself to a Dr Pepper Zero. I don't think it's affecting my weight loss, although I do have to look at my losses over a two week period because I usually have a big loss and then very small (like...

Another 5lbs gone and I managed to fit into a pair of jeans that hadn't seen the light of day since last summer. :bliss:

You look fab, well done!

That's fantastic! Well done!

I never said excessive! This all came about because I assumed starlight was moderating the thread when she told someone not to advise drinking, (having read it again I think she was actually just giving her view) and I had wondered why you all didn't have the same sticky. I meant nothing...

That's my understanding too. You'll lose with or without being in ketosis but if you chose to eat 600 calories of carbs on a vlcd then you'd burn the carbs off first before moving on to fat whereas if you're in ketosis you only have fat to burn off.

I'm guessing not, Atkins state that you can drink alcohol in moderation once you have completed induction. When you are in phase 2 you only eat 25 grams of carbs. girlygirl1 - I wasn't saying that Atkins promoted it, I was talking about the forum. When I'd read the earlier reply asking...

Thanks everyone!

Maybe Minimins should make a stand on this one way or another across all the forums. For instance, if you go over and read the Atkins forum you'll find that they almost promote being able to drink and lose weight on the diet. I never knew there was a problem with it until I read it here...

Agree, it always amazes me how low some people will go.

Well done Biggie! You've just proved that a holiday can be enjoyed without having to go mad on food and what a great feeling to jump on the scales after and be 6lbs lighter. If you're anything like me, in the past it could so easily have been 6lbs heavier! Leese

Great loss, well done!

Well done Tenney, it won't be long before you're at goal!

..and I'm really happy to have lost 4lbs. I added a meal on Saturday and was able to stick with my decision to have steak and vegetables. It was delish!! I had 4 chicken wings to start too. I chose to just have a bar that day because it was a one off and I wanted to stay somewhat low...

Good luck, you can do it!

You have lost over 100lbs, that's fantastic, you're certainly not a failure!

Hi there, I think if I were in your shoes with all that's coming up for you over the next couple of weeks I'd take a complete break from exante and try and stick with a sensible diet. Maybe look at south beach... Once the holiday is over you can start back again. Leese

2lbs off. Although I realise that over two weeks I'm having a good loss I'm still finding it hard to get my head around only losing 2lbs in a week. When I did LL, after the initial big loss, I lost a steady 4lbs a week without fail. Maybe it's because I'm 10 years older too...

Well done! Enjoy your holiday.

I couldn't stomach them so mine will be going out with the trash on Tuesday.

Great weight loss, well done!

Oh my, that was like reading porn. :D

Well done! You'll do the 7lbs easy!

Great loss honey, well done!

Yes, I see lostboy has just mentioned it.

I didn't say that you weren't entitled to an opinion, I just don't think anyone that doesn't work for Exante should be telling people outright that they will be fine.

Actually that's something neither you or I know. I look at it this way. If they have used far more sucrose than they should have and the final product weighs the same once packaged then something must be missing... Anyway, it's just opinions but I think you should let people make up their own...

They just need the logistics company to go through every box and take them out. A long process and costly to them but they should be thinking of the customer. I have had to request logistics companies to do this many a time when I was in an Ops role, it's not unusual at all. What I feel...

Thank you. I fired off another email to exante requesting the same good customer service you and others have received and they are now sending me a new batch. Leese.

Please let us know what they say. I haven't sent any off yet but need to soon or I will end up with nothing but chocolate at the end of the month. If it's the sucralose then it will effect the carb count. Leese

They are still sending this batch out, I wrote to them after having one that almost made me sick and have received this... Please be aware that not all products in this batch were affected and only a few needed to be replaced. Once we have tested the items you return we will be happy to replace...

I'm not sure about slimfast, I think I've read on here they have a lot of sugar. If it were me I'd go for one of the meal replacement bars from the supermarket. Ie measure up from Tesco, there's information on the right ones to have on a thread that's been stickied. Leese

People on the atkins diet have similar weight losses to those on meal replacements. It's about being in ketosis and burning fat rather than counting calories. The only reason I'm doing exante instead atkins is because I need to take food completely out of the equation. If I knew that I could...

Haha, we're all so different. My fav is banana made that way, the chocolate could do with a sweetener. To make a coffee I shake up vanilla with about half the water than usual and then add a mug of strong black coffee with a sweetener and shake that up too. Delish.

You'll definitely remain in ketosis and possibly lose too. Leese

I love mixing my shakes quite thick in a breakfast bowl with cold water and giving it a minute in the microwave, it comes out sort of puddingy..Yummy. Just one a day though. Leese

Yea, it's probably ok. Sorry, i just re-read my post, I didn't mean it to sound as authoritative as it might have come across. I have no clue I was just sharing what I read. :)

I just read the recommended intake part on that link and it says to take 30 mins before or at least one hour after food so not sure you should be making porridge with it. Leese

If you are not planning on staying in ketosis then it will probably be very difficult starting again. It certainly has been for me in the past. Think about it carefully, you don't have to celebrate your daughter's birthday with food. It will still be a great day. Leese x

Well done Biggie!

You only need to worry about the carbs. One serving a day should be fine if the only other carbs you're having are from your packs. People can have up to 100g of Carbs a day and still stay in ketosis, but it does depend on the individual. Leese

Hi all, another 3 off this week :happy036: 4 more to go.

Great news, well done!

For those of you who, like me, don't enjoy cooking or not sure how you can make low fat food tasty, I have found this range to be a godsend. So far I've tried the meatballs, thai green curry and cod mornay. All are really delicious, you don't feel like you're missing out at all. They're...

3 off, 7 to go. :)

Good luck Gems! I've just completed week 3 and have found that coming here and setting up a ticker in my signature has really helped keep me on the straight and narrow.

Hi, could I please join in? I'd like to lose 10lbs this month.

NO, seem to be ok in the toilet dept, I'm probably not drinking enough water though so i'll give that a go. Thanks.

Hi everyone, I've been using xenical for 9 days now and the last 3 days I have felted really bloated. Any ideas on how I can relieve this? I'm counting calories as well as keeping to the low fat rules and having around 1200-1500 daily. Although I've lost 5lbs it feels like I've gained 10! :mad:

Started taking Xenical 2 days ago and came across this site while looking for reviews. Dieting isn't new for me, I think I have been on one every Monday for most of my life! :D
