4 packs instead of 3?

[mazzyboo]

hello im new and just started the exante diet and find myself hungry on it but i believe the hunger is supposed subside after the first few days? I noticed in the faq section of exante that it mentions either having 3 or 4 packs a day and wondered if anyone here has 4

i just wanted to say that having come on this site the people are very inspirational and its just what i needed to keep going

thankyou

i know you can have a normal meal a day of 400/600 cals a day depending which programme you choose but im not ready to cook conventional food yet...im not ready as im unsure what damage i may do ha!

Hi mazzyboo, the hunger will subside, it varies from person to person as to when you ketosis kicks in, usally between 3-5 days, but if you are feeling hungry i would suggest that you split your packs so you have 6 shakes a day, also try adding a few ice cubes to the shakes and use a blender it makes them just like mac ds milkshakes, not as tasty, but still just as nice, hope this helps.And dont beat yourself up to much if you fall off the wagon, i did in wk 3 but have picked myself back up and am on wk 4 day 3, but as you i am now hungry, but no it will pass.hope this helps

thankyou very much for your replies i'm feeling more optimistic. i still get hungry but i find it more easier to deal with now. i have also started splitting my packs which has also helped a great deal too.
Well done on both of your great weight losses x
