Hi all, just introducing myself as I plan to spend the next four weeks at least with you, gaining motivation and support hopefully!!
I used Minimins when I lost weight on LL, and it was a godsend to me. I lost 6.5 stone from November to March this year and have mostly kept it off. My weight has crept up a little and now find myself at 10st 10lbs. I did get down to 9st 7lbs, and it might have been a little light for me, but I definitely want to get down at least 10lb again. I am eating very differently, but find myself snacking too much. I have cut down massively on carbs, but the wine is being drunk more often that it should and this makes me nibble.
I've been wanting to go back on LL, but just can't afford the £66 a week. I was on Minis tonight and spotted the Exante ad, with the Xmas special offer, and couldn't believe it! The price of that costs me what it does for lunches during the week for a whole week of meal replacements! I aam going to use four foodpacks a day over four weeks. My BMI is just under 25, and I know that I strictly shouldn't do this, but I could go back on LL if I wanted and do the full plan right now. As I am planning on doing it for such a short time and only want to lose just a stone, then I'm sure this will be fine.
I'm so excited tonight as I know that I can do this and the weight will drop off again. I then know, as I have learnt lessons again, that I need to limit my snacking a lot more than I have recently. I believe I've done really well to have mostly kept the weight stable from March to now, and it's only having gone on hols and putting on 10lb+ that I'm finding it a little more difficult. Thing is that I've identified the problem and am going to deal with it while it's still a small one!
Really looking forward to receiving the packs and starting and getting back in control, especially as I have heard that you all love the packs so much. I hated chocolate shakes on LL, but I'll stomach them for a month if I have to. I also have all my shakes hot normally, can you make them this way, as I don't like cold shakes!!
Yay Exante - don't let me down now.... ;-)
