At the end of my first proper week I've managed to lose 8lbs. The thing is, I've had a piece of meat (mainly chicken) some evening as I've felt as though I needed something of substance. It's now day 8 and the hunger hasn't really stopped. Am I doing something wrong? I had a bar for breakfast...

Thanks :) The shakes and soups tend to have 20g of carbs give or take half a gram.

I really don't mind the hunger, it's more the concern of the weight dropping off more slowly :)

I'll be honest, I'm not sure, other than suppressing hunger, what effect ketosis has on the weightloss. I enjoy the exante food, but because of the lifestyle I lead I sometimes (too often to be honest) find it difficult getting all 3 meals in (Total solution). I often buy the Tesco Ultraslim...

Hi, are there other bars that would be just as filling that provide roughly the same carb count, that won't break the bank? I've got a tonne of soups and a fair few shakes, but I'm going to run out of the bars soon and I really don't fancy paying the fortune that Exante charges for the bars...

I'm beginning to see a bit of a theme here ;) I can usually only get around to having two because I leave for work at 6.30 in the morning and I'm often not home until something to 11 at night. I don't really get chance to have a break and even if I did, it'd have to be a bar as I couldn't make...

Hi! I dropped a stone in two weeks which I was really happy about, but 4 or 5 days ago I actually put a pound on somehow. Since then, I've dropped the pound but just stayed at that weight. I've done Exante before and never experienced this. Because of my job it's virtually impossible for me to...

I'm getting back onto food next week, after 4 weeks of Total Solution. I realise I should be introducing one meal each day, but I'm a little lost as to what I can and can't eat. I'm planning on plenty of fish and chicken, which I know are fine, but I also want good portions of veg/salad. I'm...

Well....after a week of being pretty rubbish at making sure I had all three packs, I've definitely been paying for it today. I'll spare the gorey details, but lets just say I've been pretty ill....lesson learned! I've been intending to start introducing a meal each day next week (the 4 week...

Thanks for the advice everyone :) I must admit, I have been a little silly this week. Twice I've only had one sachet in a day, and today it's looking like I'll only manage 2. I've been so busy!!

I'm doing the total solution, have done for the past 2 and a half weeks. My BMI has dropped from 25.something, to 23.5, but I'm still far from happy. I went down from 14st last year to 11st4 in about 11 weeks, but I ended up putting on weight again over Christmas and went back up to 12st11 since...

I've just bought the mixed bumper pack. I adore the soups. I bought loads extra last time I was on the diet, and happily carried on having them when I finished the diet. Unfortunately, the Christmas period had an effect on my post-diet eating habits and I've decided to lose a bit again. I've...

So, being sick of being a 'meaty' guy, I went to my pharmacist last week and started on Lipotrim. I weighed 14st 11lb, and had a bmi of 29.7. She said, before weighing me of course, that she didn't think I needed to lose any weight. Fortunately I carry the weight pretty well and come across...

Thanks :) I think the problem is that if she does stop me when I get to 25 BMI, I doubt I'll be happy with the wieght loss and wish to carry on, so I'll end up doing what I did years ago and lose it in an unhealthy way, or resort to another food replacement diet.

To be honest, I avoided the soup because I just didn't fancy the idea, and I stayed away from the chocolate because I think it's in my best interests to stay away from chocolatey things for as long as possible! I went with 7 vanilla and 7 strawberry. Having tasted the vanilla last night, I had...

I have great willpower, and I have no problem dealing with feelings of hunger, but please tell me I'll get used to the taste of the shakes. I had the strawberry this morning, and thought it was sickeningly awful. Tonight I had the vanilla, and I barely kept it down...I was actually wretching...

Yes, when I told her that I'd rather go lower, she said that I'd end up looking gaunt.... When I first went in to see her she said it doesn't look like I need to lose weight. I do carry it pretty well and come across as 'meaty' as opposed to wobbly, and for some reason my weight doesn't show...

Hi, after a few days of research into Lipotrim I decided to go ahead and take the plunge. I'm a 32 year old male, and decided I was sick of being a bit 'chunky', and could do with shrinking my 36" waist. I'm 5'10 and THOUGHT I was 14stone4pounds thanks to my bathroom scales, but the trip to...
