Hello all
I've started my Exante journey today so would love some support. I'm reading lots of diaries on here too.
A bit of brief background: Been on-a-diet or off-a-diet since 1998 when I weighed 11st 5lbs and was ready to go into a size 16. Fast forward to 2012 and I'm now 15st (ish) and just about to go into a size 18. Bloody vanity sizing has a lot to answer for! In those 14 years I have done calorie counting, weightwatchers (lots of versions), lots of slimming world plans, celebrity slim, 'cutting down' and Lighter Life. Lighter Life is the only one I had any success with back in 2007 but as I didn't follow route to management, all the 3st 2lbs I lost went back on within a year and then within another year I had gained another stone on top of that, and haven't been able to shift it since.
I kept thinking I'd love to go back to Lighter Life but didn't have the money and couldn't bear to have all the waiting around for a doctor to sign my form, and then for a class to start, so an online friend told me about Exante. I had a look at the website and placed an order straightaway. My friend advised me to try and low-carb until the delivery which I have tried.
This really helped me as on Sunday when I placed my order I was 15st bang on, and this morning I was 14st 11.2lbs so that has given me a bit of a welcome boost.
I'm going on holiday in three weeks today so it would be lovely if I could get to below 14st in time for my jollies. I haven't decided yet whether to have the week off when we go, or to carry on, lets get these three weeks out of the way first.
So I'll be posting on here, my thoughts and feelings.
Good luck to everyone else x
