Have you seen the "helpful list of ketogenic foods" posted by buxombarrister on the main exante thread? It's worth a look, and says carrots, corn and peas are in the higher carb bracket.... I would have thought peas were ok so am going to be printing off her list for when I have to go back to...

It's hard trying to drink a lot when u r not used to it eh? I fill a 2 litre bottle and drink that over the day a few sips every time i am in the kitchen so I dont have to drink it all at once! and a can of coke zero when I am out and about... and a cup or 2 of green tea when anyone is in 4 a...

Yay my first balloon! :) Well done to everyone else also,, think I might have the easiest diet, just eat the packets given to me and nowt else.... but the 'quick fix' will only work if I eat sensibly once I am ready to move back on to 'real food' else it will all just pile back on won't it! I...

Have you read the Beck book I have seen a lot of folk on here raving about it.... seems to be helping a lot with suggestions about how to change your habits and "destructive patterns" I haven't seen it but it might be worth a look if you haven't already..... there's a whole thread about it on...

Noticed this threads been moved out of the TS forum.... must have been all the chip butties and weightwatchers cakes mentions that did it... my bad! :whoopass: But turning them down did the trick, just weighed-in after 3 days and down 7lbs!!!! I am shocked even though I know I stuck to the...

Team 1 - Slimply the Best kay_135 -7lbs! Rebirth_Lozza -3lbs Gemmafs - 6lbs pulp1383 - 7lbs! In 3 days! :D :D Team 2 - Keto-Kats Cybill - STS (oh well, could have been a lot worse!) Helen -1lb (STS last wk -am doing refeed with 13 lbs to go to 6stone) *jenjen* -6lbs JennieC - 4lbs...

Lost 7lbs :D very very chuffed :D that was only in 3 days, must have been carrying enough water in me to sink the titanic!!

Well just braved my first weigh-in and I am down 7Lbs! After 3 days! I am amazed, totally and utterly amazed!! But very happy :)

I am the latest addition to slimply the best :D decided I will do a weigh-in tomorrow although I only started on Tue, but wanted to make Friday my day and get it out of the way before every weekend...... fingers crossed for myself and every other 'loser' on the team ;)

Well my dad has decided to be supportive yes..... after telling him I was sticking to adiet at lunchtime, he came round after his work with..... 2 boxes of weightwatchers cakes! D'oh! My fault I guess for not being clear on exactly what the diet entailed...... but still I thought it was a very...

Well I just had to tell my dad, he arrived at lunchtime with a huge pile of chips, wanting to make me chip and ham butties!! I told I had just had a plate of soup (Thai Chicken mmmmmmmm) and he said well u can have some of this as well can't you? For someone who is always worried about my weight...

Yeah think I will just go ahead and do it this Friday morning and get into the swing of things. I know it won't be a big loss at just over 2 days but hey, every little helps!! (That wasn't a plug for Tesco BTW!)

I think it's brave if you to bite the bullet and tell them, and very good starting straightaway! Sounds like you have a family like mine, loving and protective.... and when families are like that it can be hard to tell them stuff that you know will make them worry, which is why I haven't told my...

I think it's funny in the Exante TS forum there's a header stating that talk of food is not allowed, any posts talking about food will be moved to main forum..... under an advertising banner from weightwatchers with a lovely picture of chocolate pudding and sauce :eek: makes me smile every time :D

Well I tried the toffee raisin bars this morning and i must say it was rather tasty :D Very relieved, as chewing your way through something you can't stand is surely not good for the old motivation :eek:

Great, thanks for having me. Now I can't avoid the weekly weigh-in! :eek: Do you do it morning or evening, or does it not matter? As I started on Tuesday should I do my first weigh-in this Friday after 3 days, or leave it til next week so it will be ten days??? :confused: Decisions decisions lol

Hi could you stick me in a team please? My first weigh-in will be Fri 27th, which will be slightly more than a week but will stick to weekly after that, every Friday.... good as gold! (That's the plan anyway!) I think the teams are a great idea, lot's of motivation is what we all need :)

Well done you! I nicked some ketostix from my brother who is diabetic. I have had a hard time explaining to him why I would want to go into ketosis because for most of his life ketones have been bad news, a sign his medication is out of kilter. I want to be in ketosis, he tries desperately to...

Well I am supping a banana shake now, its not too bad, quite bland but the texture isnt quite as bad as I imagined it might be.... just passed my first hurdle of the day, made tea for my 6 year old and didnt pick at it at all... then sent him out to the ice-cream van and didn't get anything for...

Hi all, I would love to join the Friday Girls for weekly weigh-ins. I have started Exante TS plan today so technically I should be a Tuesday weigher-iner (is that a word?) lol but figured I could have an early first weigh-in then stick to Fridays after... cos you lot all seem so friendly and...

Hi, I am another newbie, started on TS today, really happy to see everyone chipping in with support and info, hope we can all help each other through this and come out smiling (and skinnier!) at the other end!

Hi Rachel and Elemental, I just got my pack and started today also, here's hoping we all do well and can maybe help each other through any bumpy patches.... have to say I am a bit worried because I tried a chocolate orange bar earlier and found it (literally!) hard to swallow. I tried taking wee...
