Doing Exante for IVF wish me luck

[sugercubes]

I've got to get my weight down by at least 4 stone as soon as possible so chose Exante.
I'm 38 and need to lose weight by early next year to qualify for IVF.
I started three weeks ago and I've lost 7lbs so far but I may add I have not stuck to it. It's soooo hard!!!
I'm determined to try and stick to it though as need the weight off and quick
Good luck to anyone else who is on the diet xx

Good luck chic. Make the most of this forum for inspiration and encouragement when you think you're falling off the wagon.
Really hope it for well for you and such a good reason to be losing -x-

Me too! Ive started saving the pennies now for ivf and as the funds build (slowly) i need to get my bmi down from 35 to 30 before they will treat us. Day 1 of exante for me today. Good luck with your journey x

Thank you everyone it's really hard obviously coping with thought of IVF then trying to do this I'm hoping I manage to get bmi down.
Good luck with your IVF journey too I wish you lots of luck.
I've just ordered the porridge as I fancied something in a bowl lol.
I have the bumper pack so I could try everything I'm not liking the chocolate shakes and the tomato and basil soup isn't too nice.
I'm liking everything else though

I could have written this myself!! Only I will be having IUI not IVF. We will be funding it ourselves so I need to use 4 stone before I spend all that money! I have told myself today if I eat then I don't get IUI - as simple as that LOL.

We can support each other to reach our goals

HI Sugercubes

I saw your post and thought OMG this is me - I think me and my OH will have to go for IVF, my BMI is around 40 and I know that they will say to me I need to lose at least 4 stone so I have started Exante (on day 4 today) and want to shift the weight before I go to docs! I know what you mean about it being hard, I knew it was going to be difficult but didn't realise it was going to be this hard!
Stick at it and let us know on your progress... before you know it we will be swapping success stories and baby photos!

I've been so naughty and came off it for 4 days I didn't go mad eating lots but I've put on 7lbs :-( I'm going to start again tomorrow and really need to get my brain focused. I saw the IVF specialist yesterday and he just reminded me I have 4 stone to lose and quickly. Which made me feel bad :-(
Anyway hope everyone else is doing ok and keeping on track
Xxx
