I hope i can do it next week! Its my birthday night out on sat aswell as my weigh in day so wud b great boost to get into 15's for going out as last year on my birthday night out i was 17st 5.5 and i looked soo miserable in photos!! Tomorow is a dd for me and i think will b hard as ive no soup...

I've tried vlcd before and can't stick it, I've got loads packs left. I went on holiday last week and gained 3 pounds, im a bridesmaid this sat and really want to lose those 3 for then. If i stick to 800cals a day on food will i still lose the same as i would on packs, i know its not a long term...

That makes u lose weight on a vlcd is it the reduced Cals or ketosis? Or does ketosis just make it easier to have the reduced Cals??

Maliboosh how u doing today??x

Haha I had mine in tiny bites but kud easily have scoffed it!! I have a lot of respect for people who do this diet as I'm mentally no good at it, the huge swings in my thoughts from I'm doing ok to this, to which takeaway will I have for dinner as I know il never do this is scaring me!!x

Oh god the demon voices r here to tell me I should just stick to slimming world :( I am wantin to eat everything although I'm not particularly hungry! Just had Truffaut bar and 500ml of water hopefully that will shut them up!!!xx

Just had my first pack of the day, strawberry shake, was really nice quite like slimfast actually!!

Anyway going to keep drinking water and hope the hunger...

Wow that's amazing!! I will try resist too but I know I will prob weigh 2mo when I'm home, for some reason I don't believe anything the scales tell me unless it's first thing in morning, but that duzny stop me hoppin on them everytime I'm in bathroom! But goin to try not to, might weigh 2mo...

I think I may join u in the 5stone in 4 months bracket lol, would take me to 11.11 which would b amazing!!x

That's interesting as it has always seemed to be a big no no on vlcd? I guess it's the individuals choice to risk coming out of ketosis to see if they can have the odd can of diet cola haha xx

Congrats on ur engagement!! I'm sure what you had you can cover with a little exercise or some sins and still have a good loss! Did u manage to maintain ur 10ib loss from ese as I'm dubious as to wether it works or not I only done 2fasts but the thread has went dead n don't want to keep trying...

Oh b I was blotto after an hour or so!! Didn't go to bed till 6.30am mind u, think I'm trying to kid myself on that I can still party like I used too! My head is thumping but apart from that I'm quite pleasantly surprised at how nice my hangover has been to me lol x

How did ur first fast go then? I finished my second one lastnite At 7 and had a wee bit to eat then started drinking, soo not a good idea when you have done a fast I was steamboats very quickly!!!x

2fast done today and done better than 1st. The trick is to keep busy!!!x

Hey my goal is to lose a couple pounds this week as I have done one fast mon I'm on my 2nd just now and going to do one sun before my wi mon! The reason I say a couple pound n no loads is I have had/having a really busy week, chippy last night as was rushed, when I finish my fast tonight at 7 we...

Well I had a chippy for tea tonight as was in a rush but as from 7pm I'm fasting until 7pm 2mo night so hopefully that will equal out for next week weigh in!! Everyone is doing great is good to see fowk commenting and gettin the thread moving!!x

Omg that's amazing Hun it was soo worth waiting for!! Was that 2 or 3 fasts in the week u done?? Makes me want to keep going!!xx

Ur doin great with gym sessions I really need to start again, these winter nights make me want to stay in and be all cosy so good on u for doing some!! Was thinking today that I will try another fast 2mo starting in morning as I think morning Cals would be less than my evening meal as I used 900...

I think I've done quite well I've only had the hot chocolate and apart from that it's been diet pepsi or water, my head hurts and I'm shaking but it's nearly 7pm I'm just in from work and going to start makin dinner and before I know it it will be 7pm!!

Ok so I norm eat breakfast 10-11am and my body knows it!!!! Gurgling/screaming belly here hehe! I've did a vlcd but only lasted 8days, I thought this wud be harder but at least I get dinner tonight so more easy to keep goin?does that make sense? I felt on vlcd I couldn't have a life, I like to...

I suppose it's been easy soo far as I was stuffed from the noodles I had at dinner lastnight then I went to sleep and got up and ready for work, so far it's been normal but I would norm eat about 11am and then 3pm today so I think I may struggle then but hopefully not! U r doing fantastic...

Well only got Until 7pm tonight to go wonder how I will feel later tonight, I imagine il be feeling sick and shakey as I normally do if I don't eat!!hope everyone has a good day :) x

I think morning to morning would suit me best too but I dnt want to tell anyone I'm doing it until I know I can if that makes sense?? I feel I'm always telling ppl about what I'm trying and I'm always failing so this way I might stand a better chance! And if I miss my dinner my bf will be asking...

Well I'm starting my fast as of 7pm 2nite, had breakfast lunch and dinner today tinlaying 1900 Cals, was quite high as had a mcdonalds for lunch :( so no breakfast or lunch 2mo and will have a late dinner at 7pm 2mo nite, does this sound right?? And if I do this again say thurs night I shud have...

Over the whole week I was over by about 800cals which I know isn't enough to even gain a pound I don't know if all previous weeks of bingeing and Sts has caught up with me :( xx ps well done on ur loss x

Thanks for that I wasn't sure as I was just thinkin of 3 meals a day so thought surely I shud skip 3 durin my fast! That shud make things a bit easier!!x

I think I will do my first fast 6pm 2mo till 6pm Monday, if you'd were doing this would you'd just have breakfast & lunch or wud u have dinner at say 5pm 2?xx

How much can you expect to lose on this diet?x

Wow really inspiring!! I was just looking at a kettlebell in sainsburys last week too!! Think it would be easier than heading out in cold to the gym, I dnt have a problem with exercising it's getting the motivation to go so this seems perfect that I can do it at home!off to sainsburys I go lol xx

Is anyone on xenical got ibs? How would it effect me would my symptoms get worse?x

It's same as Cambridge it's a vlcd you have 3shakes a day that's it :( costs £100 a month which is reasonable compared to other vlcd but still £100 is a lot to spend if a can't stick it a week lol!x

Well week of and 4 of my 7 back on :( but to be honest ive had such a bad week and soo low i havent cared and ive just ate anything, no takeaways or bingeing but just not counting anything etc! I cant believe im saying this but i cant wait to get on packs again for simplicity xx

Sorry to lol at ur post but im exactly the same wide feet n fat fingers!! Suppose ive always worried bout the bigger bits before like my belly!! Wud be a funny reply tho, where do u want to lose weight??? Ehhmm my hands and feet haha!! Its horrible tho eh, my oh got me a lovely ring for xmas...

And there was me thinkin it was a sweary word haha!! Will i am off exante but watching what i eat Until oh finds a job and im rite back on the shakes!x

I split my packs and for each half shake i used 350ml water!!x

Ur question at the bottom, why do i still want to do a vlcd? Is a good one, im breaking away from exante for a bit although i just started, a lot has happend in the past week to make me feel im not in the right headspace and financialy too. Anyway i still have some packs left which i plan to use...

Thanks for that think il check out other forums as i only ever look on exante! I had a boiled egg and some coke zero, i feel soo much better and its helped me on day 3 x

Will it effect ketosis? Im desperate to get in ketosis to make it bit easier but dont know whether to eat 2 eggs or an extra bar? Just feel need something to get me thru today :( last 2 days ive been fine so feelin a bit of a failure x

I had planned to start when i got paid, i now have the money sittin there for a bumper pack but find myself hesitant to order, ive got 4 weeks free and thought it would be a good start. I did all about w8 for a week and it was a week of hell then i convinced myself id lost 8pounds and hadnt ate...

Not sure why u can't on this diet but wen I did all about w8 you were allowed half pint of skimmed and it would not effect ketosis so I can't see why it would but miby someone who knows beter will reply! But IMO if half pint skimmed is all you need to keep you on straight n narrow to reach your...
