Hi I haven't got down to only 14 lbs to go, so good on you. But I'd of thought you must still have your 3 packs ( you still need all your vitamins) and then a low carb meal. And then when you reach your goal weight, slowly introduce more food. Well that's what I'm going to do. :) Sent from my...

When I first started Exante, I asked about taking Fybogel . Someone kindly replied and said not the orange one as it has citric acid in it . So I bought the green box the plain.

My OH has just nipped out to get a Mc Donald's for him and our Son. This is the first time I've felt like giving in, since I started this diet :( I'm asking myself why? Because I know how much I want to be slim again. And I want it sooo much !

Honk for day 20 :)

My daughter had her prom last year, and I ordered a under skirt from china for her which I thought was good value. BUT when it came , i had to pay the courier extra charges (UPS) ( would it be some tax) maybe someone could help me? BUT it was extra charges that I didn't realise I would have to...

HONK !!!! :)

I've read some people do, and some don't . I know this isn't the same, but the Sunday before last. My family was eating Sunday lunch. Cut along story short- I had already decided I was going to eat a small amount of chicken and a small amount of veg. I did just that. I enjoyed every bit. Then...

This was at the weekend! My lot at home ordered a takeaway pizza and garlic bread . They sat in the living room eating, and I was very good :) soup in one hand , magazine in the other. Still feel fantastic for not giving in :)

Miss Bean, that's fantastic news :) Well done :) x

Felt full of energy today, so decided I would have a good sort out in my wardrobe. I know I've only been on Exante for 2 1/2 weeks . But already I'm chucking stuff out! I've put all my other clothes on the rail that I can wear now . And sorted the others out into sizes as I work my way down...

All I've had to drink other than my packets is. Water! Think I'll get some decaf :) Sent from my iPhone using MiniMins

That's great you had a lovely time :) Sent from my iPhone using MiniMins

I haven't touched coffee since I've been on Exante, 2 1/2 weeks now. So I'm just wondering if it will give me a headache. I suppose I could try the decaf! Does anyone know if this would help?

I must admit I haven't tried my shakes hot as I like them all cold. BUT I think for a change I'm going to give the vanilla one a whirl :)

Thanks Starlight for explaining that in layman's terms :)

Good for you :) you go girl :) Enjoy your evening ;)

Well done :) my lot had a chinese laast week. I didn't sit with them , i had to go in the living room and watch the TV and drink my soup :) So you was very good :)

Well done you. Not sure i could of sat in there...

You're right there is alot of conflicting advice out there. I'm in ketosis, I'm happy, not hungry eating 3 pks aday. And as you say that is good enough for me too...:)

That's just my luck ! Lol

Im very surprised at how I feel on TS because I was really worried before I started that I wouldn't be able to cope without eating family meals. But I've found it's not as bad as I thought! And I'm losing weight :) so well happy :)

Good luck on your 1st day, my 1st day I could of eaten the cats food. I didn't ! Lol. Two and a half weeks in and I feel great :)

I have some new WW ones they arrived wednesday. . Now depending where I place my feet I can weigh upto 2 pounds difference. Hmmmmm Do all scales do this ?

Oh yes , oh yes, at home now. Weekend off :) All is good :) Have a good weekend everyone :)

I'd never heard of Ketosis before I started Exante. So I've been doing a lot of reading on the net. I found a site called Ketosis diet. It said that to stay in Ketosis you shouldnt have no more than 50g of carbs a day. And I added a shake , soup and bar and it came to 60g But I don't feel...

Hi Jay, Someone commented at work that I've lost weight :) my trousers are falling down, I have to keep pulling them back up. Not quite ready for the next size down thou! Bought myself a new dress. Yeah feeling great! :) I love Exante :)

Ha ha that's so funny! You do make me smile :)

Hello and welcome from me :)

Thanks guys :)

Morning :) I've been reading and as I understand, you Can't have chewing gum! I was wondering why is this ? Also what about toothpaste ? And I'm on day 14 , i ve just got up and my tummy is rumbling. Does ketosis stop this altogether or do you have little tummy rumbles ? Sorry...

Hello And all the best on your weight loss journey :)

Mmmmmm that sounds really nice. Just wish I had read your post before I had eaten mine :( never mind there is always tomorrow :) Thanks for sharing :)

LOL OMG it's so true. Before ketosis kicked in, I could of eaten the cats food :rolleyes: :)

Wow ! That is fantastic :) I bet you're over the moon ! Well done

You go girl :) great idea! I have my daughters prom dress hanging on my wardrobe it's a 12. I used to be a 12, so I'm leaving it there, cos she said I can try it on when I've lost my weight ....

After reading some posts on here about hair loss and being ill , if you dont AAM week. It has made me think! Good job really ! As I was thinking I wasn't going to AAM . I've been on TS for 10 days now. I haven't weighed myself yet. But my clothes are feeling loose :) I am going to have...

It's not just you :) I hate that too! If they say a time then they should stick to it! I would rather be a few mintues early than keep someone waiting :) I hope if they apologise, you tell them they have made you late :)

Awww hope you feel better soon

Good luck :)

Result :) well done . Glad to hear they swapped them

I've eaten these bars and I'm ok.

I've got some of that in my cupboard :) didn't realise you could drink that . Wow I love this site :)

Hello and welcome :) You have come to the right place. I've looked at loads of posts and people are so supportive on here. You'll be glad when you start, but will feel better when Ketosis kicks in . I was in the staff room at school today. Someone walked in and said who's is that half of...

If it was me, I'd email them again. You may of used some, but when youre on their diet and can only eat their food, then you had to use some. You only need to swap what's left, not the full amount as you have had some. Let us know how you get on :)

I'm ok with the shakes it's the tomato and basil soup i find a bit tricky to drink. But like you I have 6 portions a day :)

I haven't told friends at work that I'm on a VLCD. I just said I'm cutting out carbs and being good. Which I am :)

Good question! I too was wondering that.

Thanks for your kind words. I'm on day 6 and feeling great :)

That's what I do. Weigh half out then mix in mug with boiling water. Then later I tip the other half of the packet in mug and drink that. I find they taste better that way. And go further :)

It's great when it kicks in. I don't feel hungry, but I'm still splitting my 3 meals into 6, which I find helped me :)

I too am on day 6. And also feeling great. Good luck for tomorrow, but I'm sure you don't need it :)

Thanks Guys for all your help. I haven't had cramps yet! *touch wood* but I have started to add a pinch of salt to my soups. I'm also drinking loads of water :)
