Anyone tried or is doing shake that weight vlcd?

Oh well wear!!! It sounds fab... And what a bargain!! U certainly work hard enough and deserve d best!!! I reckon many people including myself often waste yrs hoping a) 4 thgs they'd like 2 have, b) 2 go places they'd like 2 go and c) 2 experience certain thgs ..... So I reckon ones gotta take d bull by d horn... Feck puttin urself last ... And 2 go 4 it!! So I admire u and take my hat off 2 u girl 4 treating urself :)
I've never seen a musical bar ones put on in my secondary SCH and have longed 2 see one live in London. All my siblings saw loads when I was Growin up and coz I was d youngest 4 some reason or other never got 2 go!! Its been my biggest desire all my life yet no matter how many hints I've dropped my OH wud never organise such a thg as he's not into dem!! Well I think I've waited 2 long.. Life's 2 short ... Im goin 2 4fill my dream b4 Xmas. Sorry 4 rant .. Put Dont feel one bit guilty!! U sound like Uve always put other people's needs b4 urs so NJOY Ur new purchase!!
 
Thanks, did feel praps i shouldn't have, but then my mam did give me half the money, so wasn't too bad :D Am a carer to my uncle who lives with me, so am in the house a lot, so well....:D

Yes go for it, you will have lost a lot of weight by then, so will deserve it. book it and tell your hubby that it is his birthday present to you lol :D

Ketosis & "sticks" ?

Hi everyone, I have just started the shake that weight diet, I love the shakes ( not so keen on the strawberry) can anyone tell me what the "sticks" are that I see in the threads on here? Also when will I know I am in ketosis? And are some people doing 4 shakes a day and no meal? Is this safe? Thanks in advance
 
Hi fay, welcome :)
I was on shake that weight and was on 4 shakes with no problem. they say you either have 3 plus a low carb meal of protein and a green salad or 4shakes only and no meal. shoebe can tell you about it, as i have now changed to exante, but stay on this forum, as i have made friends and they are all VLCD's :) When Jax comes back from holiday at the end of the month, she can tell a lot more as she has lost about 55 to 60 lb :D

I wouldn't worry about the sticks,they are called ketostixs (sp?) and they are hard to come by as chemists won't readily sell you any, as they are supposed to be for diabetics. You don't really need them anyway, i bought some and only used them twice lol
they are supposed to change to a clover pink colour when you wee on them :D
 
Hey der Can't believe 2moro is Wed already Gud luck with WI Jeanette Lucky u gettin 2 dine out....Will u get all dolled up?? Snowed under with work .... At SCH at 8 Got home at 5 Cooked din Chatted to my mother on d ph then put booklets together and did lots of paperwork! Only fit 4 bed now !! Roll on d wkend!! Yummmm steak ... Smthg I rarely buy or cook A rare treat out as very expensive :)
Hi Fay .... I tend to have 2 shakes a bar and some chicken ... Some days it cud b 3 shakes or 2 bars and a shake If Im feelin hungry Ill eat protein! I found that d slim fast meal replacement bars were d most filling! I also like the Ultraslim Tesco meal replacement bar. I find that the Atkins bars seem to kick me out of ketosis. I never bothered with d sticks as I find that my pee smells strong when Im in ketosis and I wake up 2 d sound of my stomach gurgling... Tis as if my body is burnin fat as I sleep :) I only ordered vanilla shakes which I always have hot with decaf coffee ... Id need some hot weather 2 have dem cold with ice!! Gud luck Keep us posted on how Ur gettin on
 
Thanks shoebe, weighed this morning (again lol:eek:) and have lost so far this week, 3.75lb, so only need another 1.5lb and i will be 1/4 lb under the next stone :D :D :D as u can see i am quite happy :D know i wont do that this week, but still!

That's why my tummy has been gurgling! :D i wish i like coffee, but hate it lol, so am having them cold with ice :) yes am looking forward to the steak, they do lovely steaks and not too expensive, about 10 pounds, give or take a pound

Fay, how long u been on this diet?
 
Oh wow Jeanette ... The lbs r dropping off u SO fast!! Maybe having d shakes cold with ice has the effect of speeding up your metabolism!!! Might give dem a go :)
Ur gas re d steak.... think it wud take a week to chomp Ur way thro 10lbs of steak ?
Ya can't beat family occasions 4 get2gethers! Bet Ul get lots of compliments!!!
Crossin Everythg 4 ya Shoebe ?
 
C we're both up at a disgusting time:) I wake up more often since on this diet, do u?
Good luck with ur weight loss thurs, i'll be back weighing with u nxt week.
I had been picking on chicken or ham, but havent this week, and think thats why weight loss is better.
Oh well back to sleep, nite nite
 
Hey Just gettin to check in ... Shooks missed Ur quick reply ... Ended out Whats Appin my oldest bro who lives and works in China otherwise I wudve messaged u back! Stress makes me wake up as does Drinkin or eatin caffeine after 2pm .. Pure pain!! Slept perfectly Mon but was awake 4 ages when I woke last nite! Was wound up as my daughter was very upset about smthg Dat had happened at SCH. I firmly believe in sorting thgs out straight away which I did but I was afraid Id b confronted 2day which I wasn't TG... SOz if it sounds confusin ... Cud private message ya d details ....
Anyhow .... Stood on scales this mornin and Im down again Yeah Gotta wait 4 official WI tomoro and compare it to last wks one 2 see total loss for this wk as scale erratic. Think Ur right ... Xtra protein snacks Definately hinders how much one loses ... But some days its just necessary .... If it helps keep us on d straight and narrow sure why not!! ?
Kitty in gr8 form ... Hangin around not Headin off at all! Welcomes us when I pull up at our Hse :) Rascal meowed a few times at our bedrm window at 5 then did d same at 6... OH not impressed... Hee hee
Glorious sunshine today! NJOY Ur meal out
Will u have d steak .... Medium, rare or well done?
 
sorry to hear that you have problems with your daughter, yes i agree, sort it out as soon as possible before it get into a bigger problem!
