Ok, hi everyone. I'm here, I was TS and I made it through the week. I weighed in yesterday and had lost 10lbs after first week. I can't thank you all enough for your support and encouragement. It has been really difficult as I have been feeling so ill. I spoke with my GP about what I have...

Hi Margi and Hannah, nice to see you here on my diary page and thanks for the encouragement. Yesterday was not at all good for me asI had such awful headaches all day and felt really quite tired and unwell. I managed to abstain just about but had to go to bed early again as I just was too...

Hi all, Last night I added a whole lot of tabassco to my tomato soup and voila... it actually tasted a bit like tomato. So this is my new strategy. My bouillion arrived in the post at last. I had bought it online at the weekend at the organicstore. Also day 5 and I've alread found ways to...

Hi Margi and Laura, welcome laura and yes you are right the sun does tend to make a lot of things feel better. thanks for the encouraging words. Boy did I need them yesterday but I could not write anything back as I was feeling so negative and on the verge of eating something. Thank goodness...

First let me just say a huge Thank You to everyone who replied with such encouraging notes on here. THANK YOU... Yesterday was god awful at some points I actually thought I was going to die. I had such a horrible tightness in my scalp that was worse than any headache I ever had. I contemplated...

Wow day 2 was hard. Had a headache most of the day and dizzy spells too. I also spent most of the day hungry and thinking of food. Just hoping today is better as I've woken up feeling wreaked. Wonder if anyone else doing Exante TS has had similar experience with first day being a breeze and...

Morning Margi, How you going today? Was yesterday a good weigh in, hope so? My second day went well although felt really headachy and seriously hungry in the end I went to bed early and have still woken up feeling rubbish. Hope this passes soon. I'm off to do my diary now but want to ask how...

Hiya Margi, How goes you today? yesterday was the first day of my new exante TS and I am surprised that I did not feel hungry or want to eat. I even went out last night with friends and did not succumb to the food or drink that was flowing. Stuck to fizzy water and felt good about myself. I'm...

Ok, it's only day 2 but Yay... I got through day 1 and I even managed to socialise without needing to eat. Went to see animation at the theatre at 5pm so made sure to have my last meal pack just before leaving and took bottle of water with me. I managed to stick to fizzy water even though...

Thanks ladygaga. I'm just off to see a film and getting there early so that I can get an aisle seat as I have not stopped peeeing all day. Going out for a drink after and have decided to be honest with my friend and suggest going for a coffee instead. I have not felt hungry at all today so...

Thank you Antari, I've just ordered some online at ethical superstore.com

Hi Antari, thanks for the advice. I will be drinking lots of water but am a little worried about when and to get it done as I work outside and don't always have access to loo's. This first week I have devised a plan to work until 1 only and get back home to do paperwork on laptop. That way I'll...

You're nearly there and it's really encouraging for the newbies like me.

Rachel I just want to say thank you for your honesty and candor in these posts. As an exante newbie I find this site really useful and love when people are making clear that the road can be hard although definitely doable. I want to have rose coloured glasses at times with regards to how I am...

Oh yeah one last thing A big huge Congrats on losing 24lbs...

Hi Margi and Irena, Margi with regards to weighing myself. I don't intend to do that too often as I want to focus on feeling good so I'm doing a fortnightly weigh in as I think that should give me the boosts that I need. (hopefully) Yes and you're right about being in the zone, only we can do...

Thanks Crystal. x

Hi does anyone know if Cardamom tea is ok as I love it and drink loads. Also what kind of Bouillion is ok and where to buy it? Thanks.

Yay Kazz, I did it. Thanks. x

Thanks Kazz, going to go give ticker factory a try. I'm all for sparkly stuff and the chart at the end of the page looks, well... good basically. I am taking your advise with the water thing. At moment drinking a cup of hot water. Its giving me the comfort sensation that a cup of tea does and...

Hi Shell, I've been the token fat friend for as long as I can remember until recently that is. I had been feeling down and sat wasting time on a social networking site and I saw a quote by a friend that I don't acutally know (you know how these sites are) saying 'remember a time in your life...

Hi to anyone who's here. Can anyone please tell me if I'm keeping this diary correctly or is there a special format? Also how can I add a ticker marker thingy to the bottom of my diary page to chart my weight loss. Thanks for any replies. x

Hi to all, can anyone please tell me how I can add a froggy weight loss ticker thingy to my diary to chart my progress. I have just started a diary as a new thread and maybe have not done it right? Thanks for any help. x

Good morning dear Diary. I hope I'm doing this right as I want to keep a weight loss journal and hope this is the way it's done.:confused: Anyway today is my first day of Exante's TS. I did intend to start yesterday but one of my girlfriends from South Africa came over to spend the day as we...

Thanks, as a newbie I'll be aware.

Hi to all, in reply to a couple of questions. I am aiming to lose 4 stone and comfortably wear a size 18 by my birthday, which is beg of August. Plus I'm off to Florida then so want to enjoy that, which is a great motivation. In total I've got about 9 stones to lose in order to be a healthy...

Hi, Can anyone tell me please how I start a new diary? I also want to record my weight loss in pics. Thanks

Don't give up going for your goal. I liken this to when I gave up smoking after 30 unhealthy years of smoking around 15 a day, sometimes more on a weekend if out socialising. I made about 4 really good attempts at giving up, stopping for periods of up to 5 months sometimes. Then one silly old...

Now that's exactly why I joined this forum. Those words were not only ecouraging but uplifting too. Congratulations to you.

Thank you GSQ... This is exactly why I joined so that I can speak with people who will understand. Also a big huge congrats on the 17lbs lost by you. That's amazing and encouraging for me. xx

Hi all, I am starting Exante's total packs program tomorrow and really excited to get going. I've got around 9 stones to lose in total and know it sounds loads but somehow to me for the first time in my life it feels doable. Also really thankful that I've got this site to come to when I...

Hi Everyone. I have just made the decision to take control of my life and lose the weight that I've been carrying around like a dead weight. I am starting Exante total packs program tomorrow and have made a pact with myself to be here everyday. I may babble a bit at times but as I am unable...
