Hi, I love the unsweetened Almond milk. And you can have 870ml's (or maybe a tad more cant remeber exact amount) as 1 healthy extra. Tastes lovely in coffee, tea and on cereal. Id say the Blue diamond make is the best, but maybe thats just personal taste. xx

Hi, I too have an underactive thyroid so im really interested to see how you get on. I too find it a hard slog but slow and steady wins the race. Good luck with your weightlosses LiL xx

Hiya hon your very welcome. The thing is sweetcorn isnt classed as a free vegetable unless your doing a green day. If its a red day then the sweetcorn will have to be synned BUT if its and EE day then you are ok with sweetcorn providing its only a 3rd of a plate. Im afraid I havent attempted...

Hiya, Im just getting back into the plan myself the only bit of help I can give is about you will need to syn your skips and Belvita. Also not sure about cheesestring could be and healthy Option or may have to syn... I presumme your doing ee with the sweetcorn and meat? Sorry not been a...

Hi Blue Gem, What I would say is maybe go to the exante website and go on the forum there and ask the question. There are exante nutritionist always answering questions on the forum and see what they say. In the mean time have you tried antihistamine tablets? LiL x

Hi, Don't know if anyone knows but there is a new plan on exante called Total plus. It's supposed to give you the same weight loss as total solutions, but with the added benefit of being allowed 100 calories worth of low carb veggies on top, from a list of allowed veg that they provide. To...

Hiya Lynne, Well done on the TS's day I always think once you have done one day the next ones seem a bit easier. Im struggling at the moment its weird im sticking to the diet but loosing nothing, I stopped smoking a week today and someone said its probably your body going into shock as I...

Hi All, 12st 4lb atm, hoping to get into the 11's soon

Hi, Can I also add that you will find your taste buds actually change over a period of time, and you may find you even like the chocolate one I know thats what happened to me, but I do the same as drawboy69 I have all my sweet shakes hot and they seem to come out thicker and more...

Hi there, I must say I felt the same about the cabonara so in the end i mixed half a soup and half cabonara together and found the soup overtook the taste of the cabonara. Also made the soup a bit more substantial with the little bits of pasta in there. Good luck hope this helps

Hiya Hon, dont beat yourself up over the blip, think of it more as a learning curb. If your feeling a bit emotional then that could be a time for a weak moment forewarned is forearmed. I know if im feeling tired I can easily go off on a tangent, so now I know one of my weak area's i know what...

Your welcome I hear you regarding the water ..lol some days its so easy to drink, the next day, its like id feel it would be easier to run a marathon than try and get 2 litres down...LOL xxxxx

Hi, I found the chocolates ones the hardest to get used to, but after making them into a hot chocolate and adding a little canderel i love them now and find them to be quite filling specially as i eat them with a spoon ..lol takes longer. I never felt sick, but could that be beacsue you...

Hiya, I personally have had 4 packs if im having a bad day. My spin on it is im better having an extra shake than going overboard with stuff that isnt part of TS Thats just what I do and its not mad any difference to my weightloss and its stopped me getting the taste back for food Good...

Thanks for the links thats really handy :thankyou:

Thank You both, Thats decided it for me capsules it is :)

Hiya all, Just a quick question which is better the capsules or the actual husks. Im thinking of trying some as everyone seems to be happy with them that take it, but was wondering if one form of the product worked better than the other Thanks in advance :)

Hiya, Funny how people have different tastes, I personally love all the soups except the mushroom and its not that i cant drink it just prefer the other 3 over and above that one. I personally add a little sweetner to the tomatoe one and the Tai chicken makes the Tai chicken taste a bit like a...

Hiya, For the cardio work out it looks great, but id include at least one session of weight work. Muscle helps to burn calories so the more muscle you build the more your body will become a better fat fighting machine :)

Thanks for posting this. Totally makes sense x

Hiya, Im the same have only told a handful of people, My partner who is totally supportive my mum as shes done these diets before and swears by them and a couple of close friends. I agree with what everyone has said i cant be doing with the lectures and the snide comments its my business and...

Hiya I know exactly how you feel. For all i do do 3 gym sessions where motivation isnt a problem i really need to do some extra at home. I keep promising myself that i will add extra this week, this week never arrives..LOL. But iv decided todays the day. THERE iv written it im going to get...

Lost 1lb 19 to go :) carrie 1980 3/24lbs gone flab-buster 2/35lbs gone Dusty 1.5/32lbs gone Mia 0/18lbs gone kelly2011 0/24lbs gone LiLLY 1/20lbs gone Niennor 2/42 gone Kellyshines 0/15 gone Time2go 2/10 gone Danii 0/14 gone

WTG Claz, how chuffed must you be feeling with your self and so you should, well done x

carrie 1980 2/24lbs gone flab-buster 0/35lbs gone Dusty 1.5/32lbs gone Mia 0/18lbs gone kelly0405 0/24lbs gone LiLLY 0/20lbs gone Niennor 2/42 gone Kellyshines 0/15 gone Time2go 0/10 gone Danii 0/14 gone WTG!!! everyone so who has lost :)

I think at the end of the day if 2 bars stops you going off the straight an narrow and its not having an adverse effect on your weightloss go for it. Some days i have 4 products 2 soups 1 shake and a bar keeps me from being naughty with anything else :)

Unofficially yes..LOL, They were origionally ok'd by exante, but then once realising they may have cost themselves some money they have retracted that statement ..LOL

Ok lovley ladies im in carrie 1980 0/24lbs gone flab-buster 0/35lbs gone Dusty 0/32lbs gone Mia 0/18lbs gone kelly0405 0/24lbs gone LiLLY 0/20lbs gone

Oh thats great news and panic over for her :)

Hiya, From reading some other posts i dont think everyone has recieved emails everytime. If they are really panicking just tell them to ring exante they will be able to put their mind at rest regarding the order x

Hi there, I fully understand you not wanting to come out of ketosis but to be honest id be more inclined to tackle the cold with whatever it is you need to use. Iv had the same dilema I got a very dry cough but it was a case of getting rid of it or feeling lousy for longer so i decided to...

Your most welcome, Good luck sparkly im sure once you start and see how good the results are there will be no looking back xx

Hiya I also have an underactive thyroid and find this diet to be the best for me. Had brilliant losses with it up to some weeks 8lbs which i would never have had on other diets. I'm on 225mcg levothyroxine a day so over double your dose. I'd say go for it because as you and anyone with this...

Hiya, I got the same with the mushroom soup so what i did was mix half and half with the Thai chicken added a small amount of sweetner to make like a korma taste and i loved it and managed to get the olast few packs of mushroom down no problem :)

Hiya, Muscle infact doesnt weigh any more than fat a pound is a pound the difference is the size / mass. A pound of fat is larger than a pound of mucsle so if you replace a pound of fat with a pound of muscle your body size will shrink but can still weigh the same. Hence why sometimes we dont...

Hi, I go to Gym 3 times a week for an hour each time 2 session aerobics and weights combined and then a zumba class. Done these classes for years so quite used to them. I havent noticed it interferring with my weight loss but everyone is different. Plus i like the definition it gives my body...

sweets ( for my sweet )

Hiya, I dont take that but i do take benefibre everyday which i think is good, but i dont actually know if thats ok to take or not. Just happy that it works and doesnt seem to be doing anything adverse to my weightloss. But everyone is different x

The Porridge is my new best friend!!! It's georgous and I 2nd that recommendation!! x

Hiya Lizzy I use benefibre in my coffee on a morning. That works well for me

Hiya, It's not easy breaking habits and sometimes thats what it is we eat because all of sudden our brains reckonises its tea time so we start to think about food. I try to keep myself busy around times like that cross stitch, reading looking in catalogues and imagining my self in some slinky...

Love the banana, vanilla, strawberry,choc shake warm, Love thai chicken with a sweetner, love tomatoe, and vegetable. Opps for got mention I Love the porridge!!! Like mushroom mixed half and half with thai chicken Dislike the choc & orange bars

I thought so too, he's a really nice chap and like I say he's delievered to me before just wish he's been allocated for my delivery on Monday. x

Update on the delivery it has arrived with the usual guy that delivers, Told him about what had happened and he's going to go back and put in a complaint on my behalf to his manager as he said its was bad on the other drivers part which in turn gives them a bad reputation so a happy bunny :)

I dont know for sure but at a guess id say as many as you want, but dont take my word for it as like i say im not 100% sure

Hi I'd be just happy to get my order not exante's fault but the courier they're using is diabolical. This will be the 4th day they have tried to deliever as they say the cant find my address and then say when they phone for directions no one is in and they have left a voice message none of...

I love 3 of the soups the mushroom is ok but not as nice as the others, so what i do with that is i mix half of a tia chicken and half of a mushroom and its tastes much better, I wont re-order the mushrooms just the other 3 but i must say this diet is very tasty all round and there really isnt...
