CHEATER!! That's what I want to shout at myself :( I am on 3rd day and I just had a couple of biscuits :( I literally want to eat my entire house....am so upset with myself. Was suffering really badly getting into ketosis and couldn't handle the headache and flu like feelings anymore :( I...

Hi guys!! Have done Exante before but starting S&S today. I am planning on not weighing myself as I got so hung up last time on how many pounds I was losing and not focusing in how I felt or looked. I am just going to focus on how my body is changing and how happy that is making me. Has...

Hi, Where in Essex are you?! I'm in Chelmsford! I would have thought you could take them on the plane in the packet, might get a few funny looks when making it though! How long is the flight....can you not take a bar instead?! X

Well done!!

I'm not going to talk about day 6..... Day 7 and 8 have been ok! I should have been knocked out of ketosis by what I did on day 6, but apparently not?!? I dunno, didn't feel any different and still had all signs of ketosis. I've been really naughty though, and only had two packs for the last 2...

Honk days 7 and 8

Day 5 was ok, had a little bit of chicken inthe evening as a treat, but when will my energy come back?! Last time I did this I had ao much energy, but am feeling really tired and lethargic.....

Hi Jane, when do you start?! Good luck with it, you clearly are a very strong person so you can do it!!!! X

Honk for day 5 yesterday x :)

So, day 4 is over and done with and it wasn't too bad. Crappy day at work which doesn't help, but no hunger which is good! Pretty sure I'm in ketosis now, but can't see any losses yet, I don't remember from last time how quick I lost the weight in the 1st week. Finding myself thinking about...

Honk day 4

I did Exante a year ago, but gave up...only on day 4, not using scales so don't know how much I started at or if I have lost any, but don't think I have lost anything yet!! Think I'm in ketosis now though :)

K, so today is day 3....it was hard! Went to see the Olympic women's football final at wembley with hubby and his parents. We got there and I knew they needed to eat dinner, kinds thought they would go grab a burger or something, but they went into a restaurant! I didn't go in and just walked...

Honk honk honk For days 1, 2 and 3

Thanks guys! Will defiantly do the tape measure!! I'm also gonna take some pictures, side on, I know they will be awful to look at but hopefully will be able to see the difference week by week!! X

Hey everyone!! I'm restarting today after about a year, but this time I'm not using my scales to measure my loss,. I'm just gonna go by how I feel and look!! Last time I got a bit hung up on only loosing a couple of pounds and didn't register the change in my appearance.....anyone else do it...

Honk for yesterday! I didn't do it yesterday as was feeling like I would give in last night. But I didn't Hooray!!

Well done on day one!! Just keep it up!!

Thanks guys!! Day 3, feeling hungry, but not to the extremes I remember from last time! Can't wait for my energy kick x

I was so excited when I saw the water flavourings Now, not so much!! Exante really screwed that opportunity up didn't they!!

Honk for yesterday and today :)

Ok, so this will be my third start. I suck, but within 3 days of my last restart I had a major **** time. It all seems to come along all at once, then it was birthdays, 1st wedding anniversary and loads of other stuff. I've got a clear run for a while, with not much goin on, so let's see how...

Thanks guys ? feeling good x

Best idea I ever heard!

Ok so I massively failed tonight. Was having a great day, got home, not even that hungry and had my evening planned out (bath listening to Adele's 21 album which is AMAZING). As soon as hubby went out to play pool, I was hatching a plan of how I could eat without him finding out. I'm sure I...

Billie you have disappeared..... Where are you? How are you getting on? X

So does anyone else have a daily hurdle to overcome amongst everything else? I go I to greggs the bakers every day for either a water, coke zero or black tea, and I think this is my daily hurdle, as all I want to do is buy a cake or something, but going in there and only getting my drink, I...

Ok today is a re-start. Yesterday went wrong and I ended up eating and knocking myself out of ketosis :( I'm not going to dwell on it, just move on and start fresh. Been 100% today, and didn't have hunger like when I first started, so hopefully I can get back into ketosis within a couple of...

I started with the mixed bumper pack, but can't stomach the soups now. Next month I will just order shakes I think x

I guess the only goal I have is to keep going uptil I feel happy. I've suffered with my back and knees for 3 years now, and am hoping that by loosing the weight it will help! Also, we are hoping to try and have a baby within the next year, and am pretty sure loosing the weight will help with that! X

joining in!! Cybill - 14lbs hannata - 16lbs Dutch - 16lbs *lil* - 9lbs KatHmum - 14lbs Summer Rain - 16lbs SammyE - 12.2lbs BB - 10lbs *jenjen* - 14lbs kitcatx - 21 lbs scarymovie - 16lbs smallerme -16lbs Sarahbx -14lbs **edit** I copied and pasted from the wrong post, next person, don't copy...

2nd WI -3lb Disappointed, and this I may be out of ketosis, gad a strange body day yesterday (see diary) x

2nd WI -3pm Disappointed and think I am out of ketosis, random day yesterday (see diary!)

Day 14 Today was a bad day. I normally have a shake for lunch and soup in the evening, but fancied a change today so took my veggie soup pack to work. I normally really like the vegetable soup, but as soon as I made it I started feeling a bit I'll, took one mouthful and started gagging, even...

Yay!!! Go Keto Kats! 2nd WI tomorrow for me, very nervous! X

Well done!!!! Did you order tour dress a size smaller or do you think you will have to have it taken in? X

How is everyone doing this week? I suck!! X

Have you ordered your dress? I got married 9 months ago and I am so jealous if anyone who gets to plan a wedding!!

They are meant to be there to help! I'm still waiting to be referred to the back specialist. 2 months I've been waiting! Sucks x

Love it! X

Ok so this is day 13, didn't have time to update yesterday, had a funeral to attend. It was really hard being surrounded by yummy buffet food! My diet is still the hot topic of conversation, and I think people feel a bit worried, probably because they don't know anything about a VLCD, which is...

This week is tough! Have managed 4 days where I have been 100%, today was sbout 75% and not enough water. Naughty me :(

Well done for another good day!! I thought I would not be able to cook as it would be too much for me, but I was ok when I cooked for hubby last night! Although like you I struggle to sit tree while he eats!! Defiantly going to take the batteries out of my scales!!

Good luck hannata! X

Good luck, just remember that the first 5ish days are the hardest, so don't give up!! X

Well done!!! Selfish

This is my beautiful 7 month old kitten called Pixie. She us actually really dark brown, with a grey belly and a few wiry grey hairs here and there. She is a handful and in the biting kitten stage but she is my baby!!! We got married 10 months ago, and having the kitten takes away all of the...

Think you kind of stopped it!! There are mo words beginning with yx!

Bakes

Well, I figured after 10 days this might be a good idea for me to start keeping track of things! The first 10 days of this have been ok, I've had a couple of wobbles and hard times, but this is no time to dwell on the past now!! Today I had a meeting with 17 other store managers in London...

Honk day 10 and no stepping on scales or ketostix!!! X

Clap clap!! Well done x

Billie that has defiantly reassured me, as we are only 1 day apart I think! X

Ok, beat me with a stick next time x

Ok so I know the ketostix are not all that reliable, but for the past 3 days I have been 100% but the scales are actually showing a gain ( im only in my 2nd week, so surely wouldn't gain?!?) I feel like I'm on day 3/4 really sluggish and tired, although not hungry. Is this normal? Could I be...

Well done billie!! X

I think it's more to do with toning and reducing muscle wastage x

How do I do this? I can't view the tutorial video

Wi 1 -14lb!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe it! X

Biggest loser mint bar was vile! Took one mouthful and had to spit it out! The asda chocolate and toffee one was lovely though!!! Thanks for the tip! X

I started the next day, I just couldn't wait!! As long as you are in the right frame of mind, just go for it!!! Lots of water though, lots and lots of water!! X

It will be my first weigh in on Saturday x

Woo!! Go team x

I happen to be sitting outside asda right now....maybe I'll try a couple, I am struggling with the exante ones! X

That's amazing!!! Do it!!!

I have to go to asda tonight and do a shop with hubby (bless him he can't go alone!!!) wonder how hard that will be!! X

And I am officially in ketosis! :)

you crashed? Are you ok? X

Count me in! X

Teams? How does that work?

Well I lasted day 3, and day 4 feels AMAZING!!!! I have today and the rest of the week off work, and thought it would be harder as hubby has loads of nice food in the fridge and cupboard, but it hasn't even crossed my mind!! If anything, having my soup for lunch was a struggle as didn't feel...

Well done!! X

How did your measurements go?? X

Honk day 3 x

I tried making a 'muffin' for my dinner after having a soup at about 12.30 and my bar at 4pm, feeling ok now!! Just waiting for my ketostix to be delivered, I think when I see that I am in ketosis it will give me a little boost!! X

I never watch corrie!! Ha ha Tpbm is having a loving valentines day x

Cereal

She is beautiful!! Any updated pics? They grow so quick!! X

My kitten is amazing, she lives water and the bathroom!! Whenever I go in there she follows me!! She likes siting in the bath with no water, drinking from the tap and sitting on the sink. She doesn't even mind walking on a wet surface x

I have only just started and I work in a town centre too ( gregs the bakers is right opposite!) and I make sure I have everything I need so I don't have to go out on my lunch break, plus as I work in a shop I am restricted with when I can eat, as I don't sit at a desk so that removes a lot of...

Oh my goodness!!!! Day 3 is hard!! I don't feel particularly hungry I just crave food like never before!!! I don't even think I'm craving food, maybe just the motion of eating?!? This is harder than I expected, but I want to do it! I've looked at the sticky thread of ketogenic food, do you...

Well done!!! That's really inspired me!! x x

I seem to notice food adverts and people eating sooooo much more !! Yesterday was my first day, and I guess it's that you always want what you can't have!! The best consolation is that what we all want is to be healthier and slimmer and we CAN get that!!! x

hello all! I have just ordered my first supply if Exante and I am so excited for this new chapter in my life! I'm hoping you guys here will be able to keep me going and support me to reach my goal! See you all around!!
