Hi, I hope you don't mind me popping into your thread, I've just done my first week with shake that weight & was looking for people to chat to who are doing likewise, I'm being a bit mean to myself and doing Total Food replacement for at least one more week!

Are you doing TFR or are you following the plan with an evening meal & snacks? I'm wondering what my weight loss would be like with an evening meal :-/ We've got three little ones who I'm having to cook their family dinner :'( torture! (I also make c*kes but the less said about that the better)!

I'm getting married next September & off to try some more dresses on next Saturday, have managed to lose almost 2 stone since January with a combo of Slimming world and now this, I'm needing that sudden boost that I know can only really come from a VLCD, was over the moon to lose 9lb last week, but missing something to chew.... any advise tips etc will be VERY gratefully received,

Mel xxx
 
Welcome Meez .. 9lbs is a fantastic loss after one wk ... Plus losin 2 st already is mighty!! Ders nothin bigger than Ur weddin day 2 make ya slim so lucky u havin Dat as Ur goal!
U cud substitute a shake for a high protein meal ie chicken breast with a green salad or perhaps a Ultra Slim meal replacement bar (available in Tesco)
Besta luck .. Ur off 2 a super start!
 
Congrats Jax... Dats super Ur in d 12's .... 12lbs in 2 wks doin Atkins is fantastic! Chuffed 2 bits 4 u!!
Hope Ur ok Jeanette! Onwards and downwards :)
 
Hi everyone, well I put on 10.5 lbs on holidays:( not surprised, as am feeling really bloated. Back on the shakes today tho.
Jax thats marvelous news, ur losing more weight on atkins than shakes!!!
Shoebe, yes having ur hubby to weigh u will make a difference.
Welcome mel :D, I am doing exante at the moment, but did shake that weight first. I like their shakes, they r very creamy, especially with ice added. I changed to exante only because they hav hot meals, soups, and meals like sheherds pie and spaghetti bolognaise etc
 
Bet Ul lose Dat and more this wk... As its all water so Dont worry Jeanette!! Hope u njoyd what u ate so have no regrets!
 
I feel like I've spent the last 8 years dieting! I lose most of my weight then put it all back on again, I'm hoping to finally hit target so I can have a go at maintaining for a while! I'm 13st 7lbs now & although anything below 12st 7lbs would be wonderful, I'd love to be 11st 7lbs for my wedding. Although in reality I'd just like to look in the mirror & like my reflection!

I had a bit of a booboo this week, was a bit late ordering my next weeks supply of shakes & I ran out!! So I went down to boots and got some atkins shakes in chocolate & a couple of celebrity slim bars & between them they've knocked me out of ketosis, so feeling a bit deflated about that and hoping the scales will still be kind, meanwhile I'm feeling rubbish :sigh:!

Jeanette I'm sure the holiday weight will fall off you, it's not real weight afterall! Besides if you're going on holiday you have to enjoy it!! The shakes really do taste lush!

Shoebedoo what plan are you following? xxx
 
Hi everyone,
Mel, if you run out of shakes, the tesco ultra slim bars are ok to have, as they are the same nutrients as exante VLCD bars. don't knock yourself out about ketosis, you did the best you could, and i shouldn't think it will do any harm.
Thanks, i am now back on plan, and as Jax will tell u i am a daily weigher :eek: :D have lost 2lb this morning so hopefully, will see a good loss this week.
 
Hi Mel... Fair play gettin back on d wagon .. Im Tryin Atkins at d mo ... Have some shake Dat weight shakes that I might try again Did find I was gettin dizzy spells ... Im quite active so need food ... Tryin to shift 1 to 1 1/2 st ..

Currently up and down btwn 11-2 and 11-12 .... Id Luv 2 b 10-7 again as clothes fit better .... Willpower isn't gr8 in d evenings ... OH munchin biscuits doesn't help plus I help my kids (10 and 81/2) to eat der treats... Such a gud mother... NOT!
 
Faced d scales this mornin ... Weigh 11-8 ... So aiming to shift some by WI on Thurs!! Now that d scales is fixed it tells me my body fat and how much water that's in my body ... Body fat is 32%.... So gotta work on replacing fat with muscle ... Tis no wonder so much wobbles when I jump up and down!!! Cringe!! TG 4 Bridget Jones knickers ... As they help stop some of d wobbling!!
Off 2 d dentist today for another filing and to get my teeth cleaned ... EUR120! Oh 2 have a money tree! Hope yer all winning!

Hi everyone, shoebe, poor u, hate the dentist, what I hate isn't the injection but the numbness u get after :(
Like me put it all behind u and a fresh start :)
Off to morrisons, a bit dull looking outside today.
 
Fab Thank you - Tesco Ultra Slim, I'll remember that! I've just ordered some slim and save bars, as it will feel like a nice evening treat!!

I know what you mean about wobbling, I've got a vibro machine (a wedding essential according to my mum), my belly jiggles like crazy! Fingers crossed baby number 3 hasn't destroyed my tummy forever :-( I've got a proper mum pouch now which I didn't get with the first two!!

I think you've all done amazingly!! I'm hoping if I can shift as much as I can, then I'll be able to maintain with slimming world, even now I'm cooking for the family using slimming world recipes, go figure!! Shoebe I am exactly the same, I'm amazed at how long the kids treats are lasting now that I'm not eating them!!! Hope all goes well with the dentist xx
 
Hi everyone, hope u all doing ok? Hav been picking at some gherkins and a little chicken 2nite:(
