Anyone doing the exante diet? or any other vlcd. I want to hear about side effects, weight loss (time scale if possible) i've lost 4 stone using exante. i want to lose abit more.

I started joining weight conscious forums recently after discovering that years of ‘watching what I eat’ and constant abstaining from all the delicious foods my friends were enjoying accounted for nothing. When I hit 40, I was determined not to turn into my mum (sorry mum, I love you very much)...

I had my beautiful baby girl 15 months ago and she is amazing. I only gained 7lbs when I weighed myself after pregnancy. This stayed off for a while as I was breastfeeding. Then since then the lifestyle change (staying in more, not working) and also being a bit depressed after caring for a sick...
