Day 10 Things are still going well. I really think this diet gets easier as the days go by. Most diets get harder!!! Weighed myself again this morning I am 18st 1lb. So I am just a little bit off a stone lost in 9 days. Had to fight my brain a bit last night as I was in on my own, at the...

Cheers Precious. You've done brilliantly yourself!!!!!! Day9 Feeling Great today. I feel like I am lighter and my jeans are not pinching as hard so thats a good sign. Had to eat some solids last night but I eat small portions and moved away from the food as soon as I felt full so that I...

Morning All Start of Day 8 I weighed myself this morning again and another 2lbs off. I know people say weigh once a week but I think I am going to do it daily to keep an eye on my progress in real time. Last night when Angela was cooking the Vegetable soup the smell of it was making me...

Good Luck. Keep us posted on your progress.

Ok so I have just weighed myself. End of week 1. I have lost 10lbs so I am now 18st 4lbs

I havent really had any headaches apart from day 1. I would stick to vodka i think. Wine is pretty bad is it not?

thanks Triage. I will update the WI later on

Great so far. Keep it up. i'm just ending week1 let us know how you get on

Start of Day 7 Still feeling up for it. It has been easier than I thought so fingers crossed will keep this up. We have enough supplies in the cupboard for a month and a half and we will be ordering more in 4 days. That will give us a full 2 months worth (including this week). I have been...

It was really nice actually. I have some surplus frozen as we only ate a small amount with salad. It was simple to make Tom and Basil soup Red Peppers Onion Turkey Mince Mixed Italian Herbs Garlic Wee bit salt and pepper and crushed chilli's I'll defo be having this again

Soups Best Thai Chicken Worst Tomato and Basil Milkshakes are all on a par. If only they did a peanut butter one I would be happier. Bars I think are great. I would buy these as a normal treat/snack

Hello All Start of Day 6 Tried the vanilla shake today. I dont like coffee so did not try it with this added but Angela did and she loved it. I thought the vanilla was ok, better than i expected. i had thought it would be awful. Again I think it tastes like porridge as do the others. Had...

The last few hours I have been in a daze. Dont know if its just tiredness, but I couldnt really focus on anything and felt strange. I kept guzzling water trying to pick me up and it seems to have worked. Hopefully this does not happen all the time.

thanks firefli. I will do my best to abstain for as long as possible and remain 100% TS. I know why we are doing it and we have various targets to aim for so I can keep focussed. You've done amazingly well so far so I can take some inspiration from that!!!

Thanks Alex Yeah that shaker bottle with the wee spring ball is amazing. Its better than my blender. Plus I can make 2 shakes at once and it gives my arms a wee work out when I am shaking them. Steve

Day 5 Yesterday was tough. Had it not been for Angela I would have cracked and had some solids I think. Focussed again today though. Had my strawberry shake for brekkie and have my bar for lunch. Will try and not have it till after 2pm as we are getting new tyres on the car tonight so wont...

Just wanted to say thanks for the tip off about the blenderball shaker. used it this morning and its just as good if not better than the blender !!!!!

Start of Day 4. Still feeling positive. Our shaker bottles arrived yesterday. We got the ones with the wee ball in from the supplement store after a recommendation on here so will give them a go this morning and save getting the blender dirt again. We had a few things yesterday that were...

So as mentioned on another thread we have folk round tonight for dinner. I decided on cooking the guests spag bol. I thought in order to try and have something similar. I have got some turkey mince, onion and red pepper in a pot fried with fry light. Then I have added the Exante tomato and...

Good Morning All Start of day 3. Day 2 was fine. We had a night out last night. We drank 1 glass of diet coke and then water all night. I was driving so didn't get questioned too much, Angela had to fake a sore head as her excuse!!! But we must have got asked 20 times why we werent drinking...

Cheers Blue

Was ok. We got through it together. We both had slightly different tactics. Both Half a shake in morning Angela half a soup for lunch Me my bar Then angela had other 1/2 soup for tea and her bar I had a whole soup (started with mushroom as its my least fave) Then a wee hot choc before bed...

Thats great Farwin. Keep it up.

Morning All So this is the start of Day 2 Day 1 was fine overall. I had the mushroom soup for dinner and had we had a wee hot chocolate before bed. The only downside was I was up 3 times in the night for a pee with all the water :) Having the banana shake this morning and to be honest it...

Thanks for the replies girls. Furry mouth passed after lunchtime. The afternoon I felt a little delerious :) I had the choc and raisin bar for my lunch 1/2 around 12.30 and remainder at 2ish. Feel hungry but not so much that it is annoying me or making me want to give up. Drank...

Question for you all My tongue and mouth feel all dry and funny. I have been drinking water all morning, so I think I have enough fluids. Is this normal on day1 ?

Are tomatoes ok on exante ? fresh, chopped, tinned etc?

Ok First taste of a shake done. Chocolate. not too bad. Just had half and shared with Angela, so we can have some more tonight. I am going to have my bar for lunch and soup for dinner with the other half of the shake as I normally will want to eat more in the evenings

Hello Angela dear, Best of luck with Exante, to get this started I challenge you to lose 7lbs in your first week.

Hello All I am Steve. I did a brief intro the other day but will quickly do another one. I have just received my first order of exante. I was going to start on Monday but whats the point putting it off further. I've always been bigger since leaving school at 18. My highest weight was...

They couldn't deliver yesterday due to the high winds. My neighbour has just signed for this. I shall start on monday as we have guests round for dinner on saturday.

Fingers crossed they will be there when I get home. I added a note to leave with a neighbour or in the blue bin. edit. thanks for the replies people

Hello All I ordered this yesterday morning and payment has been taken. I have had the email of confirmation, but not the one confirming its been dispatched. This is my first order. Has anyone had any issues in the past? Tried calling but the message just keeps asking me to email

Thanks for that TTIW. Good info to know. !!!

Hello All Thought I would introduce myself too. I am the other half Angela mentions above. We will be starting this together and as much I intend to support her, I am sure we will make it a bit of a competition as well to ensure we keep motivated to succeed. I have a quick question if...
