Blimin heck, not lost any more this week although weigh in is on sunday. I dont have any yoghurts, just steak, mince, chicken, eggs, oatbran, sweetner, veg & salad on PV days, 2 litres water a day and thats it. It should be dropping off! I go to the gym every other day as well. Whats going on?

Hi, yes eatingmore steak now as was getting fed up with chicken. It's blimin expensive all this meat!!

well today is my 14th day on dukan and I have lost 9.2 lbs so still really happy with that. Not long until my 1st stone hopefully.

Well done you. Today is my 14th day and I have lost 9.2 lbs:D

Hi, thanks for your replies. All my yoghurts and fromaige frais are fat free but the buillion is just the standard one in the green and orange tub. My TOTM started on day 2 of attack and I lost 8lbs in the first week so I know it is not that. Tomorrow will be my 14th day on dukan and 6...

Hi, I started the Dukan Diet on 11/09/11. I did 6 days on Attack and lost 8lbs which I was really pleased with. When I started on Cruise the next day I began with a PV day but the next day I put 1lb on. I was fine with this as after reading the book and on here I knew this may happen. I am...

anyone?

Hi, I will be at the end of week 4 tomorrow. Can someone please confirm if tomorrow I now need to add a meal a day for the rest fo the week? Do I have to have all 3 packs still per day or can I just have 2 packs and a meal? Thank you.

good luck for your next weigh in. We have the same losses although you started before me. Wk1 -8, wk2 -2, wk3..dont know yet but I hate naughty food today so I will be happy even if I STS.

Too late. Started on 11/1/11, lost 8lbs in first week, then ate naughty food on the following saturday but somehow managed to lose 2lbs my 2nd week but then tonight, a saturday again, I was out shopping with hubby andwe went into sainsburys cafe. Ok I said, I will have a plain omelette with...

Ok I will join in. I have 12 weeks until I fly to Miami. I would love to lose at least 2 stone by then or to see any number on the scales that begins with 12 stone something!

Hi, only just found out about the Easter Challenge(thanks Dreamer). Started Exante on 11/1/11. I fly out to Florida on Good Friday 22nd April and I would love to lose 30 by then although im sure I will put half of this back on:o. So although a bit late I would love to join in. Cybill...

Oh I willl have to look into the Easter Challenge. I would love tto get 2 stone off before I go but I am nervous about how much weight I will put on when im there as I am NOT going to take my packs with me, just too many nice restuarants for that. Im sure I will end up putting a stone back...

Thank you. Done really well over the last 2 days with no cheating. Out of Ketosis which is tto be expected but wont be long before im back init again. Yes this is a great idea. Unfortunately I went straight passed the bin and put it on the side and then that was it. Over the last 2 days...

Thank you all for more support and advice. I am finding today very easy so far. Had a shake for breakfast at 11am, lots of water before and after. Eating my soup as we speak and just starting my 2nd 1.2 litre bottle of water. Just before I made my soup I was making the boys some pasta...

Thanks for your support. You are all right of course. Yes exercise tomorrow is a good idea to see if I can counter balance a bit more.

Well today I am on day 12. Lost 8lbs in my 1st week but today I truly blew it. Had my shake for breakfast and all was well until lunchtime. My two boys left some of there dinner and instead of me chucking it straight in the bin I ate the left overs. 3 bites of chicken kiev and about 5 fork...

Hi, I dont want to be fat and 40(my 40th's in May) I want to climb a flight of stairs without puffing when I get to the top I want to feel confident enough about my figure to by some sexy underwear:o I want to walk into a changing room and not feel envious when I hear the women in the next...

Hi, i am 10 days in so not a wealth of knowledge but happy to help if I can.

Yes I think I will ask hubby to hide them and only get them out on weigh in day.

When I was on Atkins you could eat the sugar free jelly and it never took me out of ketosis so sure as long as it is not citric acid then it would be ok. Will follow this with interest.

Hi, thanks for your replies. Do you know what, I weighed myself an hour later and I have lost 3/4 lbs so within the hour my weight has fluctuated from 14st 12.5lbs to 14st 11bs:confused: I am going to have to kick the habit of weighing myself everyday if I can as although it did de-motivate...

Hi, just woke up to day 10 on TS. Yesterday was the first day I have done a decent amount of exercise, about 40-50 minutes in all. I did about 20 minutes at the physio and did 30 minutes on the wii fit(the step pro program). Yesterday I ate 1 toffee nut bar, 1 mushroom soup and 1 banana...

Im just about to set up my wii fit which I have not used for over a year. Let's see what it has to say about me!

Thanks both. Another 3/4's of a lb off today:)

Hi, I am on day 8 and not that keen on the strawberry shake but tonight I put 10 ice cubes in my blender, added 2 sweetners and a couple of drops of vanilla extract, added the shake mix and then 300ml of water. Mixed it all up and got 2 full glasses of strawberry milkshake. It was almost yummy!

thanks thanks Thanks. The way I see it is if I lose each day..great. If I dont then I will assess what I did that day and try and improve. For example, yesterday I had about 6 wafer thin slice of chicken but today I did not lose weight so today I have not cheated once. I think this...

Thank you.

Hi, so happy that I have managed my first week on TS.:clap: My loss is 8lbs which I am pleased with considering it has been my TOTM all week as well. Lost 1cm from my bust, 2 from my waist and 1 from my hips. Very happy with that. I have had a few small cheats but chose wisely. My...

Wow, well done, that iss a great loss.

Hi, just a thought, where have you got your scales? what i mean is, what sort of floor surface are they on? the rasoon i ask is, i bought myself a good quality digital scales andi have it in my bathroom on a tiled floor, this is where i weigh myself, however if i put the scales onto my...

Hi, I am on day 4and my TOTM started on day 2 of Exante and I have been wondering the same. However I weighed myself this morning and in 3 days I have lost 4lbs so I am hoping to lose around 7lbs by the end of week 1. There is nothing we can do about it anyway and maybe week 2 will be abit higher.

Hi, currently of day 4 and started off by buying the 1 week variety pack. I like the vegetable and mushroom soup, all the shakes and the toffe, nut and raisin bar. I cannot stand the orange/choc bar or the tomato and basil soup. This leaves me with a dilemma as to what to order next. I...

Just to add that it is Vanilla EXTRACT you need not essence,my mistake.

Hi Jemma, im on day 3 now but after tasting the choc/orange bar on day 1 I thought I was doomed to fail on this diet, but I then had vegetable soup for lunch and liked it which got me through to the evening. I then had the banana shake but I mixed it with the water in a pan, added a couple of...

thanks for this info. Well I am on day 3 and am in ketosis according to the stix. Hopefully will still be in it tomorrow.

oh well, not much I can do about it. thanks

Hi, yes there is more fat in the atkins bar. Exante per 100g there is 9.7g of which 3.9 is saturates Atkins per 100g there is 19g of which 8.8g is saturates. The only reason I am hoping it does work is that when I was on Atkins I had thse bars and remained in Ketosis. HOWEVER, this might not...

Hi, when it is your TOTM does this make any difference to your weight loss? I started Exante yesterday which also coincided with my 2nd day of TOTM. Just trying to prepare myself for maybe not a massive loss at the end of week 1 if it can make a difference.

Hi, I have found the nutritional info now on the website. Thanks for that. Oh dear. How did you get on today on day 2 of your course? I had the basil and tomato soup for lunch which I found to be vile. I will not be having that one again. Had a vanilla shake for dinner which I blended...

Hi, no the net carbs is 2gs. Had one today for breakfast, well it was at 11:50am but it was sooooooooo tasty.

OMG that's brilliant. I am day 2. Hope I can get somewhere near your figure.

How nice of you. I have just finished my 1st day so am very pleased with myself. Hope tomorrow goes ok.

:wavey:Hi, welcome. I only started yesterday but I have managed my 1st day and have just about managed to drink 2.5 litres of water which is a vast amount for me. Feeling a bit bloated and been to the loo 10 times but I am now more positive about tomorrow. Well done on your weight loss so far...

Hi, my 1st day today and I have just had the vegetable soup as my dinner. I actually quite enjoyed it, thought it was quite creamy. Im so glad as this soup has just given me the will power to continue onto day 2 as this mornings choc/orange bar could have easily ended this diet for me.

Thanks so much for taking the time to reply. I will try the nut and raisin one(i hate raisins:eek:) tomorrow to see if it goes down any better. If not then I will have to swap it for an advantage bar and maybe take a multi vitamin. Will have to wait until my first weight in to see if it does...

anybody?

thank you so much for this. i am on my 1st day and the choc/orange bar i tried to eat for breakfast was awful, i thought i would not mange to eat anything else but i made this custard but with 200ml and added the sweetners/vanilla extract and i am now sitting here with it in a mug and it is not...

Hi,it's my 1st day on Exante today and I started with a Chocolate Orange Bar. I managed about half before giving up as it is in my opinion disgusting:( I did force another 2 bites of of down abit later but I just could not finish it and through the rest in the bin. I have managed to find the...

Hi, ok so I started Exante today:) Decided on the chocolate and orange bar for breakfast which I started to eat at 9.45, the first couple of bites were ok but then each bite just got worse, it is disgusting:( I could not eat it all, had just under half of it. Can anyway tell me any reason...

Thanks, I am at the minute, ask me again in 3 days! Well done on your first weeks loss. Hope I can lose that much. Thanks, someone else on here did this with the bags but I thought a little note would be a good idea. Well done also with your first weeks weight loss. Are you starting tomorrow?

Hi, just joined this forum last week as I was pondering between Exante or LL. Obvioulsy Exante won! This afternoon my week's variety pack arrived. I have split them up and put them into 7 bags, I have marked each bag from 1-7 and have also written a little message to myself such as, day 1...

Thanks for your replies. Cannot wait to start. I have today started to drink water as I dont normally drink water and probably only have 2 cups of tea a day. Had half a litre so far. Bought myself a new diary today ready for my start date. Come on Mr Postman.

Excellent. Also just read about adding cinnamon so will try that also for variety.

Soon to start but just wanted to say well done. 4 stone, brilliant.

Thank you all. I have decided that Exante is the one. I have just registered and have ordered the weeks variety pack. Shame there is only 1 chocolate shake but im sure the vanilla and strawberry will be fine. what is the best way to mix the shakes? I have a shake mixer from when I tried...

Thanks. Yes just seen the weekly pack for around £37 so maybe that would be best. Oh no, dont tell me Exante is not as nice! £66 per week for LL is just so much money. OK, im going to order a weeks worth and see how I get on. I have nothing to loose but lbs:D

Hi, just registered on this forum. Basically I went to a LL info session on Tuesday and was all set to start next Friday. However I have been told by my doctors surgery that the health form your doctor has to sign might take 10 days and may cost £42! Well if I have to wait 10 days then this...
