    Hi all. Currently doing Slim&Save, love that you can have 'meals' the spicy spaghetti and chilli packs are lovely but im struggling because I have no one to 'check up' on me! What are the food packs on Lipotrim? Are they just shakes? How many per day? X

    Hi all, started again today after being on and off a few times. I do Combat class twice a week (45 mins very high cardio) as well as a toning class that is still quite high cardio plus the occassional run on the treadmill. From experience it is practically impossible for me not to be absolutely...

    EXANTE to SLIM & SAVE

    I ordered some samples from s&s the other day after purchasing a huge box of exante, how i wish i hadnt! Totally converted to s&s, just ordered a weeks worth!

    What diet pop??

    Hi everyone. Started exante total solutions again today after trying last year but falling ill and now trying once again. I really enjoyed coke zero as a treat, but after drinking lots of it over the past couple of months, I am convinced the aspartame does not agree with me at all! Leaves a...

    So looks like I chose the worst possible time to begin, a 50th this weekend, my beet friends birthday next weekend and my birthday 2 weeks later... all of which will involve alcohol in some means ! So obviously you can't drink in ketosis, not only are you breaking the diet but it's very...

    First week loss.. A true loss?

    Thanks, yeah I'm not so enthusiastic about the first weeks loss now it's mostly just water, seems very easy to put the weight back on too? You're definitely right, it's about training the mind not to go back to the eating habits of before, think I will always replace a meal or two a day with a...

    First week loss.. A true loss?

    Hi all, just a query. It's apparent the first week losses are quite high (some are huge!) and then they slow down a little in the following week. I've heard it mentioned that the first weeks loss is just water, if this is true then is it not a 'proper' loss, is it easily put back on and then the...

    How many more times?

    I restarted again today (3rd time lucky was never meant to be....). Last week was awful, a flexible cytoscopy (camera in my bladder) and personal reasons made me fall off yet again. I really really want to do this diet, my willpower has wained somewhat after staying at 12. 12 lbs for the past 4...

    Feeling rough and its only day 1! Is this normal?

    I honestly think it's the water consumption!! It made me ill the first time round, especially day one! I know that the water consumption is revcommended but I would build it up, stick to what you can drink! It made me so queasy that I gave up, I feel fine this time round drinking what I can...

    Other diet bars

    Are they of the same sort of amounts? Will they stop you going into ketosis/throw you out of it when combined with 2 shakes a day? Would it just be best to stick to the Exante bars? X

    Well SlimFast isn't giving me the results it used to, so feeling really good yesterday (and knowing I'd be out the house most of the day) I started TS again and ordered some more shakes.

    Fluids on Slim Fast

    I drink water and pepsi max (better than diet, only 0.3. calories per can) I think the main reason for drinking so much is to help fill you up but i also thought that if you don't drink enough on a diet then it can hinder weight loss through water retention? I lost 6lbs on SF in a week a few...

    Aww no! I meant as an absolute minimum you're bound to loose a couple of lbs, but all you need is 2 to make it to half a stone! So bonus! Lol. I do know what you mean about WW etc.. though, I sometimes was able to loose 4lbs in a week and still eat, so if I don't see some good 5lb + numbers...

    How much exercise?

    How much exercise?

    I know, I keep saying I'm so excited to start a diet, how strange! Lol. Pushing the buggy is a fantastic form of light exercise and burns loads of calories.

    Grest post Bb! I start on Tuesday and from what I can gather I won't feel much like exercising the first week but plan to do zumba and treadmill ( and lots of walking! ) but I think this will depend on our personal limits, how we feel and nothing too strenuous.
