I bet your weigh in will go fine, AND, next week you'll have a 9 dya week so imagine the week 2 weigh in!!
Always look on the bright side!!
I have saved my chilli soup for the weekend, I've heard it is nice so I was saving it for a weekend treat!! hehe. Hope I like it now!!
Eugh I know what you mean about family not being supportive. My mum lost 3 stone earlier this year, but that was because she basically gave up food and exercised like a loon. She had a nervous breakdown and then a stroke because of her radical change in lifestyle (she has a heart condition and high blood pressure so she shouldn't drink, smoke or diet and she did all three at the same time) but when I told her I was doing this diet she was like OOHHHHH it's such a rip off, I didnt have to do a fad diet to lose weight......well no mum....you didn't...but you almost killed yourself in the process. And my dad, who is morbidly obese, is very supportive, but every time I say - dad you should try this diet because it would help you to lose weight quickly and it will take away temptation - ooohhh no, I don't want to do a crazy diet like that, it might be good for you but it wouldn't work for me - without even looking into it!!!
BOOO!!! xxx

Good luck with your journey! I am on day 1 - similarly to you I have thought it is the worst thing I have ever tasted .. but there you go! We are very similar "stats" and from reading your bio (skinny sister ... etc) we sound like we are singing from the same page .. if you need a buddy drop me a PM (I can't PM yet - not enough posts!)

Just a quick one, I am just drinking my first Tetra.
It is very strong, and I am worried it might upset my stomach as I usually water down my shakes quite a bit.
Do you need to drink these within 15 mins like the other products or can I just have a sip every now and again?
Tastes nice, but after a week of very watered down products it's a shock to the system!
Perhaps I could pour it into a cup and dilute it myself?

I think the 15 min rule is valid for all products as it depletes some of the vitamins but there's no confirmation of how much. I usually take my time with mine to make it last abit longer though so I don't think it would hurt too much as long as you don't do it everyday.
Watering it down should be fine also, will make it seem bigger and fill you up better too

keep going hun its worth it!
Its weird I love Tomato and hate the spicy tomato soup. If you like hot things try Oriental chilli with lots of hot pepper sauce. I hated the two flavoured porridge as I havent got a sweet tooth so I usually have the plain with a couple of sweetners which helps.
I would reccomend the Choc mint shake and blend it in a blender the coffee one is also nice you can make it with water and ice in a blender. Once you get past teh first 4 days its lots easier. I have lost just over two stone and have about 9lbs to target and I found it hard at the beginning but try and keep motivated! Give it a good go for a couple of weeks and if you really cant do it then try and go back on Atkins hope you succeed!xx

Hahahaha! I do that when I want a cup of tea!!!
And yeah, feeling much fuller now. And surprisingly, I dont like butterscotch shakes. Which is weird, because I love sweet things, but its a bit like some sort of horrible vanilla protein shake with a sickly sweet after taste. Not getting more of them tomorrow!
Ooooofftt.... thats just mean. My bf isnt in from work yet, but he likes to sit opposite me and eat tea cakes and rolls n sausage. B*****d!
