Hi everyone, so sorry i have not been on lately, i have been doing alot of thinking! :o I have decided a vlcd is not for me...so i have bought alli and will be following a low fat plan, i know it will take me a lot longer to get to goal, but i have been fat soo many years, whats one more to...

Thanks alot ladies :) No hubby actually does want me to lose weight! Hes always on at me about my weight...he was just happy to have been proven right when i caved. Im on track today so far.... Im trying to leave my packs for later in the day like you Lisaberry, as evenings are worst for me...

Mojo yes its hard when people tell you that you will fail :sigh: but thank you so much toots and mojo for your words of encouragement. Its amazing how a few kind words can bring someones mood up. Thank you xx

Hi hun, i think 2.5lbs is still a great loss so well done! Dont let it discourage you...you'll probably find you get a visit from the "whoosh fairy" next week ;) quite often following a lower loss comes a "whoosh" in the form of a nice little plump number lol. Keep up the good work! xx

:) Good luck hunnie! Im sure you will do great and be at goal in no time! xx

Just wanted to say Good luck hun! xx

Ok so DAY ONE :D My packs have arrived! Just had a chocolate milkshake for breakfast.. Must say i didn't like it much atall! But im not a fan of milk shake anyway. Looking forward to my bar, but most of all my soup! :rolleyes: Feeling very optimistic...xxx

I think that sounds like a lovely Idea Canyscot :) Def i good motivator xx

Aww thanks alot girls...looking forward to my delivery tomo :D xx

Ohh Starlight you have just brought a smile back to my face! lol I checked and the status of the order is "complete" I shall be up nice and early waiting :rolleyes: xx

I placed my order at around midnight on Wednesday...and it said when my order has been dispatched, they will email me...i havent't yet recieved that email, so i am assuming it has not been dispatched :confused: I was really looking forward to starting tomo! booo!! :break_diet: Do you always...

Thanks Bren Certainly more optimistic this time round :) xx

So here goes my diary :) I officially start tomorrow (praying the packs arrive) and i am so hoping that Exante will be the diet to give me my life back....Like my title states, hoping something beautiful comes out of something not so lol, and once i am at goal, i will be having 3small...

Glad to know im not the only one Rose :o Im kind of pleased i binned them, i know its best for me, because unfortunatley im an easy quitter. Hope this time round is different!! *crosses fingers* x

Thought it would be a nice idea to start a thread where everyone can list their reasons for wanting to lose weight. Maybe when we are struggling, we can go over the thread and see if that helps OK so my reasons are : - * Feel confident and sexy * Prove my whole family/few friends wrong...

Beacuase thats another downfall of mine...no matter how often i tell myself i will weigh myself weekly...its almost always a daily thing! Then i find myself getting discouraged if i see no change from 24hrs prior (even though i know i shouldn't be ) :break_diet: Soo, i will be weighing myself...

That sounds lovely babystar..I lurve knee high boots in the winter, although finding a pair that fit my legs is a mission in itself let alone doing them up! :p Im sure you will be in that dress in no time :rolleyes: x

Hi Bren :) I actually read your story on the Exante website before i realised we have our very own star right here! :p You are a huge inspriation, and you must be so proud of yourself. I really hope i can do as well as you have done! xxx

Yup same here im afraid! Well when i did LL a few years back i lost 6lb in my first week...i am heavier now..but i woul be happy with 5lbs :) anything over is a bonus!! you? xx

Thanks alot Rose :) Its really nice to know there is someone else in an almost identical situation to me! :rolleyes: I know it will be a real challenge for me, as i usually polish off what my boys dont eat :o Just hoping i get through the 1st week...if i can do that, i know i will be fine...

Lol yep they are into everything! I literally get followed by all 3 of my boys now when i go to the loo! lol The first 2 are firm behind me, then you hear Lukyes little hands n feet going ten to the dozen follwing! :p Its amazing how fast they master something lol xx
