    Gin??? Anyone know what the story is?

    I agree with starlight I only had a few drinks but ended up blacking out and embarrassing myself! Be careful - take it slow and have someone watch out for you- This diet has to be liveable though so if you want the night out knock your self out of ketosis first! Em x

    What do you add to the soups?

    I just add loads of pepper to the mushroom and veg and tabasco to Thai and tomato - I have a secret spice stash at work too! Although I'm going to have to get the shakes only this time coz its just too hot for soups!! Gonna miss bars though so will have to get the asda ones!!!

    Total Solution 8 stone gone now

    Oh my god well done! It's mostly impressive because you've made the diet liveable for yourself - you have milk in tea, eat out on occasion and take breaks and get straight back on! I hope I can follow in your footsteps! Congrats xxxx

    Water?

    The loose bowels are your body getting used to all the vitamins! It is a common side effect for the first week or so but then for most people goes the opposite way! - and definitely will if you don't drink enough water!!' also not drinking enough slows down your weight loss "drink to shrink"

    Danger of alcohol when in ketosis

    I agree with starlight - everybody's different but how do you know when your knocked out of ketosis? I ate for 2 days before - not a huge amount but pasta one day and a fast food burger before going out and party food at the beginning of the night but 3 drinks in was the most drunk I have ever...

    What can you drink on Exante

    The high juice has - no added sugar not sugar free and it has sodium citrate which is just another name for citric acid - however some people don't seem to be affected by citric acid anyway - it does say may knock you out of ketosis not will- everybody's different and it's up to you if you take...

    Drinking and ketosis

    Maybe try eating pure carbs - toast for breakfast potato for lunch etc etc I think that I was too wary of putting on any of the weight I'd worked so hard to lose! And i deff can't eat the same size portions as I had before- but that's a good thing! Em
