Hi everyone,
This is my first time posting on MiniMins having been an active reader for years. I made the decision to give
Exante a go yesterday and definitely feel like it's a diet that needs support, so I decided to join.
I'll start with a little about me. My name's Charlotte, I'm a 29 year old living in Yorkshire. I've been actively trying to lose weight since January this year and have lost a stone in that time following a mostly high fat/low-carb diet and seeing a personal trainer.
The plan I'm currently on is great, and I can see it being the way I eat for the rest of my life. The problem is that the weight is coming off slowly and I'm getting married in three months.
In a bid to give myself a push before the wedding dress fitting, I looked into meal replacement diets and came across Exante. I've always said I would never do anything like this, but I'm feeling rather desperate and despondent with my current losses.
I used to be around 12 stone but piled 3 stone on after I lost my dad two years ago. I've never managed to get it off and feel like it's now or never. It's going to be hard enough getting married without my dad walking me down the aisle, without worrying about what I look like in my dress too! So I'm giving it a go
My order is arriving today but I'm away at a wedding Friday-Sunday so my first proper day will be Monday. In the meantime I may have a shake for breakfast and bar for lunch to get into the swing of things before then.
I'm currently 14st 3 and would like to get into the 12's again before I get married although appreciate that this is unlikely!
I do a minimum of three high intensity workouts a week which I love and it's important to me that I keep this up so my plan is to do flexi on these days so that I don't faint and TS on the other days. I'm not sure if that's good practice so please tell me if I'm doing that wrong.
I'll try and post my consumption every day and I'm hoping to use this to let off steam when the hunger pangs arrive. I have a massive appetite so am worried about the lack of food but I think it's worth a shot!
I'll be back to update in a few days - wish me luck! xxx
