Anyone tried or is doing shake that weight vlcd?

[shoebedoo]

Ha ha ha.. We'll see who has d last laugh!! Come on ye boys in green!! B-D
Do u remember hurting Ur back?
If its muscular.. and its Ur lower back...
Lie down flat on d floor... Flex Ur feet and put Ur shoes together as if der glued together.... Now lift them up off d floor .. About a foot and lower them.. See how many u can do... If u can do 50... Then Ur muscles r pretty strong ... If u struggle to do 5.. Then u need to do 5-10 each day and build it up... Hope this makes sense!!

 

[jeanette78]

I know i'm daft, but do u mean feet (side by side) or sole to sole?

 

[shoebedoo]

Side by side

 

[jeanette78]

ta, will try that, then will have a very hot bath before bed, as that helped enormously last night, as the night before i couldn't get comfortable at all.

 

[shoebedoo]

A hot water bottle might help too.. Poor u... Nothin worse!! Hope d exercise helps.. Nitey nite..

 

[jeanette78]

Thanx shoebe, dont know if ur suposed to keep ur head on floor? Mine lifted a few times when I got to floor was wondering how i'd get up, between my back and right knee (arthritus) managed about 15, and before doing them my back was cracking, afterwards felt a lot better!!!

U had some great bargains, well i bought a pair of black trousers for 6 pounds in asda, size 16, did up, but could do with a little more room, so i must be down to a 16 and a half lol

 

[shoebedoo]

My Mam was prescribed this exercise donkeys yrs ago.. One doc wanted 2 put her in a back brace but with 5 young kids Twasnt an option so she got a 2nd opinion and she was shown this exercise and never looked back!!
Nitey nite ... Back on TS tomoro as muffin top in jeans is NOT a gud look... Hope box comes soon as need variety!!

They take a long time delivering over there! I ordered at 2pm one day and I had it in the morning!!
Give it a couple of weeks and it will be gone.

[jeanette78]

That's not too bad shoebe, ul get that off in no time, go on TS next week and i bet that more than half of that will be gone.

re ur bro and friend making a meal, couldn't u freeze the chinese dumplings for urself? and tell hime u will have them as a treat when u get to ur goal? u could then have the veg with them when they have their dumplings?

Weather bad again here this PM, this morning just damp and drizzly but now have had some sleet and rain and windy again hope it keeps nice for u and u enjoy ur walk with ur family. not going anywhere today or tomoro really,

[jeanette78]

Thanx shoebe, i hate when that happens in the micro, not just the mess, its the loss of FOOD ha ha. am having a drink now and a read on my kindle.

 

[Lucy79]

I have just started 2 shakes plus low carb evening meal, so hungry hoping it will get better....keep weighing too everyone seems to be doing well and are very motivated! Hope I can be too!

 

[jeanette78]

Hi lucy, welcome
Everyday will get easier, if u get a headache, (which as ur not on TS, u mite not) it will only last a day, so not to worry. Just drink more water.
If u hav a look on the forum, do a search, and u will find a list of low carb veg that ur allowed on a VLCD. Not sure if its lipotrim/slim and save or lighterlife, but it mite help u with ur meal choices.
Let us know how ur going on.

Thank you for the advice. I am using CD shakes just starving and don't think I am in ketosis. Feel so inspired listening to people's losses tho just have a long way to go !! And have failed before

 

[jeanette78]

You're welcome Lucy, it will prob take a few days to get into ketosis, stick with it as its well worth it, i have lost 5st 9lb altogether, and been on exante since end of last may, with breaks for holidays (4 weeks in total) and a break for Xmas (7th DEC till 1st Jan) so keep on it and keep us informed

Afternoon shoebe, damp and showery here, more like april showers lol, as have had the odd bit of sunshine and blue skies

Also if my scales are right, am now only 1.5 lb off to getting under the nxt stone will then be 1/2 lb under, hope to do that by wed, tall order as my weight loss has been poor over the last few weeks, hav los 1.5 lb so far this week, so think 3 lb would be a miracle!!!

 

[shoebedoo]
