Going for it.
.... in 18 days. To say I'm thrilled with this is an understatement! My aim (though I had no real confidence it would happen) was to lose ten pounds before my weekend at Centre Parcs when I started Exante 2 and a half weeks ago. If I do a bit of a walk today I might get off the half pound needed to make it a stone!
And a lot of that is due to the support and info on this forum. Without reading about other people's experiences on VLCDs I would never have thought of trying one and hadn't even heard of Exante.
So all hail Minimins!! I'm now well under 11 and a half stone and that's the lowest I've been in years. Challenge now will be to not put all of it back on over the weekend. Am resigned to a few pounds as I temporarily re-feed though. :break_diet:
As an aside - and those who've have read my blog will already know this so sorry for repeating myself - I ran out of Exante shakes and ordered a few Dietimeal ones from avidlite instead. Big mistake! I make my shakes into muffins - or shmuffins as I now call them - and they are delicious. Warm, squidgy, slightly risen and cakey. Not so the Dietimeal ones. They turn out like hard glue! And taste vile and synthetic! Ugh! Ugh, ugh, ugh!
I got into a pair of size 12 jeans yesterday. Yes they are a very stretchy pair of size 12s and there is still a very impressive muffin top spilling over but still! I did a little happy jig in my bedroom.
