"I'm a Thin person trapped inside a fat person's body!".............
That's what I tell myself but up til now have never done anything quite as radical as Exante, although tried numerous other diets.
Since about age of 13 I have always been a little overweight but then since about 20 the weight has just been creeping up, and now, at nearly 29 years old and 17.5 stone I have decided I really MUST do something about it! Why put off today what you could do tomorrow?!
I gave birth to my first baby boy in September called Oliver, and he is gorgeous (even though I am a bit biassed!)! Fitted back in my Pre pregnancy clothes within a week of having him, so can't use pregnancy as an excuse, and just thought to myself I don't want him to be embarrassed of me when he is older and I want to be able to run around and play with him, so I am finally getting my arse in gear and doing something about it! I'd like to lose 6 stone eventually but short term goal is 2.5stone, and I will be so pleased if I manage it and stick to this diet!
Love this website for support and advice- so any is always welcome!! I am a bit confused, do we have to have one 600cal meal a day for 1 week plus normal shakes/soups after 4 weeks of total solution before going back to total solution for further 4 weeks and so on? That's what an advisor said when I emailed, but surely then you come out of ketosis and then would have to start all over again???
Anyway, today is day 4 on my Total Solutions diet, and feel pretty crap tonight, so just hoping I am not in ketosis yet and then when I get there (hopefully soon) I will feel loads better?!? Not so nackered and not quite "with it"!
Anyway, enough of my ranting... Good luck everyone who is doing it too, here goes.........
