Back to it!
HI there Targaryen
Well done on deciding to do something about your weight - that's the hard part over!
Just to give you a bit more info on W8.
On the rapid plan - as a man you could lose 4-5 stones in the first 12 weeks. One of our guys lost oer 40lbs in 10 weeks to give you an idea.
As you add a meal every day every fourth week - you don't need to inform your GP at all. There is a medical questionnaire and as long as you don't have any serious issues its fine.
On W8 you are allowed half a pint of skimmed milk every day on all their plans (one of the main reasons I joined - hate black tea/coffee!)
You have 4 packs a day - which costs £49 per week. (Not sure of the price of CD for 4 a day) W8 have just reformulated all their flavours and there is a really good selection.
Savoury - Spaghetti Bolognese - think W8 is the only VLCD which has a meal as well as soups/shakes, its absolutely delish!
Thai, Veg, Mushroom, Carrot & Orange, Asparagus, Chicken Soups
Sweet - Vanilla, Chocolate, Toffee, Wild Berry, Strawberry, Cafe Latte, Tropical
Water flavourings - help the 4 litres a day go down - Green Tea, Fruit Tea (my fave) Summer Spritz (tastes like lemon sherbet), Savoury drink.
You can go and see a consultant - most do 1-2-1 sessions, or go to a group. You can do it online direct with head office, or have a consultant to send you your stuff and provide support via email/ phone.
Good luck with whatever you choose and if you have any questions everyone is really friendly - on both forums!!
