Hi everyone again,
I am disapointed by the non existant support of the pahrmacy I am using in Basingstoke. The first time I went it was on a Sunday and a nice girl talked me through the program and weighed me, took my blood pressure and talked me through everything. I therefore started this program in the knowledge that I was being overseen by a Pharmacy.
The next week I was checked on a Friday (work rubbish hours), this time though a young lad just weighed me and gave me my meals and that was it.
I therefore decided that I'd go in on Sunday and drive the 40 mile round trip to go on a Sunday because hopefully the lady who spoke to me on the first day would be there, fat chance. They say they can weigh me and give me the meals and that is that.
I am now at the end of my second week and am a bit disapointed to say the least.
These meals aren't cheap, I didn't mind paying the £45 for my 14 sachets with the support. If they are not supporting me I should either stop and try another diet or buy the supplements cheaper elsewhere (ebay).
I have questions that I want to ask.
1. Am I in ketosis?
2. What should I take as a laxative as I haven't been for over a week.
I was told when I started that they will check for ketones, weigh me and support me throgh the program. This is not happening and I am feeling let down.
This diet isn't easy and takes a lot of will power especially when the rest of the family are having take aways, beers coffee with milk and other treats.
I've followed this diet religiously and I have lost weight, though not excessive.
I would expect to lose weight as I'm not eating food just these boring shakes/soups and drinking black coffee and peppermint leaf tea, most of which I hate.
Oh well.:sigh::cry::break_diet::tear_drop::raincloud::argh::help2::giveup::feedtroll::fear::faint2::d'oh::9529:
