I'm a newbie to Exante, but not to losing weight. I'm a former Slimming Worlder who managed to lose over three and a half stone, but then put half of it back on again. I've slowly lost 8lbs of that and taken the plunge starting Exante yesterday with my future hubby as Wednesday weighers. We are on the bars along because frankly making shakes is barely worth the effort and I like to chew on things to make me feel I've had a meal.
We've only got the Hot Cross Bun, Red Berry and Double Chocolate flavours... and I can't stand the double chocolate one, so we didn't get off to a good start yesterday but I stuck with it. Today I'm feeling much better about the whole thing though - I've had at least two litres of liquid and two bars into my three per day without any major dramas aside from teeny tiny headaches (nothing like I'm expecting for the ketosis kick!) so today I'm going to brave my Body Pump DVD and some yoga to get the exercise going. If that doesn't kill me, we'll keep at that for a bit and see how we go!
We are off to Prague with my grandparents in just under 3 weeks (where we will not be munching Exante bars!) but would like a good few pounds off before we go. After that, we've no target before our November 2015 wedding (just over a year and counting! Eeek!) - preferably looking at three stone or so off before February 2014 leaving me 7 months or so to find that perfect dress!
Wish me luck! oxo
