it wont take you long at all to get back into ketosis, I've come out of ketosis twice and both times got back in just after 2 days.

not to make things difficult but it is often said that male beardies will fight but females are ok, or 2 males are fine with other females in the viv, but unfortunately female beardies can fight too. i was on my ususal beardie forum and there was a piccy up of a female beardie few years with no...

they're so cute! I've got a beardie 6mths old and can eat the house down but love it to bits. they have such funny personalities :) I was going to get two but the only thing is you have to keep an eye on them cos they may start to fight...maybe years later and have to separate them and equipment...

hi miss yes there are a few on here who have a ws day a week so you're not alone. obviously you'ed need to eat ketosis friendly food but if you feel you this is the way to go and will keep you from coming off the diet then go for it :) x

congratulations for taking the first steps and i have to say you really do sound determined. that is so important getting in the right mind frame. knowing why you overeat, with the right mindset and determination there is no way you can't succeed :)

well done! good luck for next week :)

i found this list on the site http://www.minimins.com/exante-recipes/188712-helpful-list-ketogenic-foods.html

im sure there's a list of safe foods here somewhere if i find it before you i'll send the link. i have a website link with a list of ketosis friendly food but cant remember if im allowed to post other websites on here? hmm..

yes eggs are fine x

you will still lose weight if you add a meal which is why some people decide to do working solutions instead of total solution. there are others who have a working solution day once a week or pick something ketosis friendly if they're really struggling not to eat on a hard day. if you do...

The first few days are the hardest you're on day 3 so you'll be in ketosis real soon which will make it even easier. Try and get through your first week then see how you feel then :)

thankyou AmZie :)

hello princess in regards to your 'wobbles' it could be down to thje fact that you are on a vlcd and breastfeeding. you are not usually advised to to certain diets, especially a vlcd when breastfeeeding because you need your calories. you should definately go to working or even simple solution...

Hi Wee, its the citric acid that can sometimes knock people out of ketosis. The drinks on the allowed list dont have citric acid. :)
