Hi everyone, loved lurking on the thread (at work during the week - can't really write anything). So here it is the weekend (and Day 4 of Exante) and I have a few questions that I don't seem to find the answer for anywhere... (though reading this on my mobile I might have missed something )
1. On Total Solution, are ANY veggies allowed ? (like cucumbers, asparagus, etc. - with no oils or sauces)
2. Do I need to add extra fiber ? (I saw on some of the forums where people are talking about dieters tea or extra fiber to help keep things moving.)
3. Can I have any type of bouillon as a drink ?
4. The hot meals - is there any way these can be made with hot water only? (When at work or hotel (traveling a lot) I only have a tea kettle, no microwave) Is it worth it to even try ?
5. I normally take quite a few vitamins - should I change that or just keep on ?
So far, so good on keeping with the shakes (and one bar) - but I wouldn't mind some soup or hot meal.... the challenge for me is I travel all week and live in hotels, visiting customer sites, etc. - so often only have hot or cold water at my disposal. Any suggestions ?
Thanks for all the encouraging stories and comments out there. It's what made me decide to go this route. (hubby pretty much against it - but if I could add in some veggies on weekend to eat something with him when he has his dinner, that would help.... but I don't want to derail myself. )
I am also looking at starting Speedflex up on the days I am in London. I've got lots of energy (fat) to burn for my classes - but will I be able to do it with so few calories ? How are you all doing on exercise ?
Thanks for the answers and support in advance!
