Anyone tried or is doing shake that weight vlcd?

Well done ... Google what 1.5lbs looks like and Ul b pleased... First u need 2 see if Ur holdin water... Press Ur thumb into d base of Ur shin and hold for 10secs... If Ur left with a big indent... Then Ul know Ur retaining fluid... Might need a diuretic .. Think ders one called... Dont laugh.... waterworks... In d health shop.. :) ders probably some herbal teas that cud help.. Holland and Barratt workers r a mindful of info if u ask dem...
I know my mother takes a diuretic tablet daily since she went thro d change...
U deserve a treat on weigh in day... Only thg is that d bread will take u out of ketosis ... Mayb Stirfry veg with chicken breast or steak and salad might be a better option.. Smthg u cud look 4ward 2 on WI day.. Otherwise Ul have a water gain coz of d carbs in d bread... Takes 2-3 days 2 lose Dat then Ur body can attack any fat Ur body has stored... So perhaps Ur slowin thgs down... Im no expert!!!
Big congrats losin 1.5... Fantastic total loss 4 d mth!!! Well done!!
Still on track today.. Phew.. Im busy busy which is gr8 .. Havin a Cold strawberry shake at d mo... Not d worst!! Then will cook din b4 cookin din... Will sip decaf coffee while cookin din ... won't be tasting it!!
 
good luck, shakes are now my steady staple for weight loss and ill be interested in seeing your results, are you doing shake that weight or another VLCD? -x-
 
Thanks, don't think i'm holding water then, it doesn't look like anyway. thanks for the tip, I'll remember that next week :rolleyes:, i'll just hav some protein next week then, and some veg praps. i was just thinking that there is 18 g carbs in a meal pack, and there is the same in two slices of soya and linseed bread? well will be extra good (hopefully) next week :D

You seem to be in the zone now, congrats, as making food for other people and not tasting it is awful, u deserve a medal. :happy096:
 
Ha ha .. Once they eat it up and say thanks .. Im happy :) daughter tasted strawberry shake and thought it tasted nice but quite mild in flavour... Hope she never needs dem.. Hasn't a pick on her.. Lucky duck!
 
you'll do great - try not to weigh I know it is hard but it is great when you see the bigger number than you were expecting!
 
Hi I have just started tesco ultra slim shakes 2 per day plus very low carb evening meal. Have lost 7lb this week so feeling pleased just hope I can keep it up! Anyone else used these shakes? Need to lose 4 stone :(
 
Ohh, wish I had known about them before I joined Slimming world. The VLCD was ideal for me I just didn't like the taste of the Shake that Weight shakes. Be careful as not all shakes are made for a VLCD and can do more harm then good :( Well done on yoru 7lb loss!! :) xx
 
Yes I second that re ur daughter. Hope she never does.
Why dont u buy some flavouring to go in ur shakes? I know u can buy vanilla and lemon as I hav bought some. There must be a lot of flavourings u could get? Be a change??
Going to our local village tomoro for lunch, my parents want to go, my dad said he'd buy me lunch as he doesnt like to c me eat my bar :eek::D

Well just finished day 1 and it is HARD. The shakes are just so sweet!! They're fine for the first half and then I struggle through the rest. Think I would find it easier not eating at all lol! Been a bit hungry but nothing too bad.
Any tips on making the shakes a bit easier to drink?
 
HI!
I add a few frozen mixed berries to the fruit flavoured shakes and blend them in a Nutri-Bullet. But I like all the flavours, Caramel is my fave!

Am on day 5 today, and have lost 3lb. But I am having a low fat, low carb meal on an evening. I tried just the shakes for the first day, and it was hard going!
 
Thanks, will try. My aim was to do just the shakes for a week and then shakes and a meal for the following week but not sure if I will be able to do the first week without a meal!

I did sneak on the scales this morning and have somehow lost 2lb already?? Must be water weight even though I'm drinking and peeing loads!! Either way my body fat percentage has gone down so I'm pleased that some of that weight must be fat!
It makes me feel a bit better and encouraged to keep going. Phew!!

I would love that 2lb to stay off cos that would be a great start! I've only got 16lb to lose so not loads in the great scheme of things and I would be chuffed to be down by 4lb by the end of the first week!
 
Ha ha Ended out Stoppin after 10 (thats 60 pages as writing 6 pages in each copy) ... Will do 10 tonight and ten tomoro nite... Head wreckin ..

2 family celebrations this wkend..Nephew is one and niece is 6... So off 2 buy pressies and visit both families... Stickin 2 decaf coffee... Treated myself to 2 bottles of coke zero as on offer 2 for EUR3... Whohoo!!
Still on plan... Bouillon is d best help ever ... That and herbal teas.. Not feelin deprived!!! Toilet fairy not been so must get some psyllium husks and slimming tea...
Hope u r havin a lovely day...
