    Total Solution Exante after Pregnancy...Question

    Hi, according to the guidelines you have to wait until after 3 months of the baby being born before starting it. My baby was 4 months before I started, but it also depends if you're going to breast feed. If you are then you can't do a VLCD at the same time. Hope this helps. :D

    Honestly... How do they all taste?

    Banana is definitely my favourite, followed by strawberry. If you've ordered porridge, that's good too. I'm not very keen on the chocolate as it's not sweet enough although you could always add swetners to it. I've not tried any of the soups though. Good luck with your journey :D

    Have felt really rubbish today. Don't know if it's to do with the cold i'm coming down with or if it's a bug. I've been really light headed and spaced out. I've still been drinking my water and had a cup of bouillion, just in case it's due to my salt levels. Really hope I can shake this off soon...

    I tried the vanilla latte last night, think I overdid the coffee though as it was VERY strong, lol. Think if I try it again i'll need to refrain from adding so much :D

    Kimmi's last attempt!

    What fab self-control you've had. Must have been really difficult with everyone else eating and drinking!!! One of my friends has also lost a load of weight recently and I definitely saw a bit of the green eyed monster, has just inspired me to perservere and get skinnier than her ;) Good luck...

    Sorry to hear your feeling poorly. I've got the start of a cold and it's such a bummer not being able to have a lempsip :( Really hope you manage to get someone to cover your shift so you manage to get to the docs and congrats on your weight loss, that's fab :D

    Day 6 and still going strong, i'm really chuffed with myself especially as my OH has really tested me with the things he's been eating and drinking!!! I had the S&S spag bol last night it was suprisingly good and tasted quite spicy, I had to check the packaging just to make sure I hadn't ordered...

    You're doing fab, like you i'm so looking forward to my weigh in next week. Can't believe how quickly this week has passed :D

    Lapsed and now feel awful!

    Yay, good for you. You could so easily have said s*d it and just totally fallen off the wagon but you've shown how strong your determination is by carrying on. That's fab :D

    Hey hon, i'm glad to see you're back on the wagon!!! Just think come Tuesday, we'll both have something to celebrate. I'm having to watch the FA cup final without a drink in my hand, really doesn't feel right (I'm a huge Liverpool fan)

    I'll let you know how I get on with mine. I'm having the spag bol tonight as i've made it for the OH so I won't feel too left out :D

    Oooooh i'm so excited I could fart glitter!!!! I've been a bit of a traitor and have been looking at the forums for S&S. Well the other day I bit the bullet and ordered some samples, the choc truffle bar, the caramel shake, the sweet porridge and the spag bol. They've just arrived in time for...

    day 2 going good :-)

    I have to admit I had a quick peek on the scales too, i've just started day 5 and it's given me the incentive to get to the end of the week and do my proper weigh in

    The stick is PINK!!

    The last time I bought some from a chemist I got a grilling, won't be doing that again anytime soon!!! :ashamed0005:

    I know alot of people say how hard it is 2nd even 3rd time around but like you say I think the motivation is that you know what to expect, you know how quickly your weight disappears if you stick to it and you know how you felt when you did lose it all the first time. That is definitely what is...

    Sounds like your head's right back where it needs to be. Plus you've got a fab incentive too :D

    Thanks hon, just wish I could share my determination with those who are struggling. I know how sad being overweight can make you and how it can turn into a downward spiral if you let it. I greatly admire anyone that tries to do a VLCD as it's definitely not the easy choice!

    Hey hon, just wanted to check in to see how you were doing today? :wavey:

    Kimmi's last attempt!

    I'm dying to try this. Do you add hot water to the shake and then just mix in the coffee? I use a hand blender to mix my shakes as I can't stand lumps, would it be ok to blend hot water?

    Hey hon, just catching up on your diary, don't know how I missed it, Glad to see you didn't go overboard last night at your meal, it would have been so easy to do. I also think it's fab that you've stayed motivated after your STS, I know how hard that can be!!! And finally congrats on your drop...
