Today is day 8 and Im really feeling so low. I am managing to stay on the diet ok but dont know if my circumstances will slow down my weight loss, at the moment and since just before starting the diet I have been stuck in bed 24 hrs a day due to health n disabilities I hope to try and get up soon once meds are sorted but really worried I wont lose weight while my mobility is so restricted
 
Sorry to hear that you aren't well. I hope that you are okay to be doing Exante in your current situation. If so, then don't worry about not losing weight because of being inactive. You will still lose weight, because there is a calorie deficit.
 
:fingerscrossed: it's sorted soon and you feel a lot better :D
 
Although Exante recommend 20 minutes of exercise a day, the beauty of being on a VLCD is that you'll lose weight with no exercise because your calorie intake is so low.
This means if on a normal day your body uses 2000 to do your basic everyday functions, you're running at a deficit of around 1400 calories a day because you only take in 600 from Exante foodpacks. Given 1lb of fat is around 3000 calories, you'll be losing weight without doing a thing!
Keep up the good work, you've got through the hard part - the first four days of getting into Ketosis, don't give up! You'll feel EVEN BETTER when you're meds are sorted, you're mobile AND you're even lighter! :)

Chin up and keep going

Hi Linda

Glad to hear you're now up and about, hopefully getting out will help you too. Keep at it and the weight will drop off even with no exercise.

Good luck
