first day today on Exante

Ok here goes
I have my best friends wedding at the end of August and as part of a group of five women all similar ages and friends for the last five years I am THE FATTY :sigh:

Wedding is a fiftys theme and I would love to be able to really get into it

Also I am fifty in two years and time to stop and take charge of this constant battle with weight

Hubby lost 8 stone on Exante last year so have decided if it works for him I am going to make it work for me

BUT realistic and know I will need support hence I am on here !!!

EACH JOURNEY STARTS WITH A SINGLE STEP and this is my first step
 
Welcome and Good Luck! I LOVE Exante! xx
 
Hi , how much do you want to lose by august ?
 
Good luck! It gets easier and easier.

Ok lunch time on day one and so far so good !! although I have felt hungry have focused on work and just having second shake now :)

I have a bit of upset tummy and feeling sick but taking advice from here and drinking plenty of water also switched to decaff coffee or I will be bouncing off the ceiling lol
 
Awww sorry about the tum, mine was bad at the beginning but soon passes :) Welcome and good luck :) Plenty of time until August to lose a ton of weight (this is what I keep telling myself)
:)
 
Hi! Good Luck!!

I started today and so far so good! Only issue is the amount of water I have to drink. I spend most of my day driving in the car and so I've had to take loads of loo breaks through out the day! lol!

Think I may have to avoid water during the day and maximise my intake in the evening once I'm home!!

Good Luck again!! (",)
 
Hi all and thanks for the great welcome
I have just over seven stone to loose but as long as I loose the bulk by August I will be happy :)

as for Hubby he is doing ok put back on a bout a stone since he finished maintenance in November, but considering going back on as he was three stone off his goal but we had a holiday and then Christmas

As for me just having my last shake
have a banging headache
and really cold :sigh:
PLease tell me it gets better
I just feel like curling up and going to sleep
 
banging headache already , hehe that usaly comes on day 2 or 3 , lets hope thats the last headache you will get . yes on vlcd you will feel cold more so .
Thats why i hate doing them in winter , when i had my gas heater it was on so much .
maybe 5 stone by August .
As people say , everyday is different on the diet ... try not to think whats coming next and think of the pounds melting away to a new you .
some people say first few weeks was easy then it got hard some say the other way so really its hard to say .
your hubby done really well , i'm sure you will too , keep posting

It does get better but be patient. It takes time for your body to adjust. Rest, have an early night, warm bath - anything except food which will make you feel better. Feeling cold is an early feature, but it goes.
Wear an extra jumper, socks anything - this will pass. Tomorrow it will be better. Good luck
