Hi I started in March 2011 and got to this weight in November 2011. So it took about nine months really.

Keeping it off is more difficult but the motivation to watch it carefully comes from two delights - clothes that make me feel amazing and the ability to exercise easily.

I think being overweight is a major disability, only when it's gone did I start to appreciate feeling well. I thought painful knees, a bad back, painful hips, and a headache from too much wine was normal, I was even getting ready to buy a walking stick to help me get about. It was ageing me about twenty years.

I am evangelical about losing weight - Exante did it for me. Good luck

It was 100% most of the time. I did add a meal when I had a social event where a packet of vanilla or soup would not have worked. So it was three magic packets a day for nine months. On the week end as a treat I sometimes had Tesco bar and a skinny latte instead of another vanilla!

Add a meal was just protein, no carbs at all , just green veg or salad with fish, chicken or meat.

I found adding a meal every day for a week was far too much and seemed to get me out of the rhythm - so adding a meal would be about once a week. It seemed to work and as long as I drank the water I felt well. I think summer is easier than winter, I was often very cold. Hope this helps.
