I have done both and main differences are - cd is approx £40 a week and exante £25 if you order monthly bumper box , cd shakes have a huge choice and are loads sweeter , exante soups are loads nicer than cd ones , cd you have to see a consultant weekly , exante shakes are much thicker and more filling , which helped me stick to it , cd is less calories a day although losses average the same . Hope that helps x
