[xsararose]

Hiya Everyone, Well looks as though this is going to be my new home for a while, hope you are all well ?

Im Waiting for delivery of my first exante bumper pack so will be starting ts tommorow and i'm quite excited although i know its not going to be a walk in the park.

I'm Around 15.5 stone (will be weighing my self officially tonight ) and i'm hoping to get to a weight in my healthy bmi range which i believe starts at sround 10 stone 10 but to be honest as long as the numbers are going down i will be happy.

Any advice or tips you can all give me will be great

Thanks, Yea from scanning around the forum i noticed the first 3-4 days seem to be the worst,ive never done a vlcd before so its all new to me.

i did weight watchers and lost about 2.5 stone but its all changed now to that pro points and just completely lost me.

to be honest i would be exstatic to hit 12 stone i really cant remember being that slim but im sure i was happy. xx

I tend to just do an AAM day when I need it so say in a week do 6 days TS and 1 day WS allows you to still go out etc to a certain extent
Some add a meal some don't, some enjoy it, some feel it encourages them to break the diet, it's a personal choice

 

[xsararose]

Hi and welcome.

The most important thing about the first few days is to make sure you drink enough water. It might not prevent the unpleasantness completely, but it will at least reduce the intensity.

It's also important to keep the water level up throughout the diet as well. Not just to aid the weight loss, but to avoid headaches caused by dehydration. If I drink less than 3 litres per day, I know about it the next day - so I now make sure that I have 4 litres every day. You just have to find the right amount of water that your body needs.

If you are in control of what you eat and drink and stick to the plan 100%, the weight takes care of itself and there is no need to be concerned about weight fluctuations and a small loss here and there - you are doing the best you can and it WILL work.
