WILL do it!
Hi everyone. Can I join in? I'm going to use Exante, desperately need to lose weight as it keeps sneaking up and has done over the past 3 years or so, getting to me up to where I am now which is looking at the business end of 18 stone 7 lbs. The thing spurring me on this time that I've stupidly managed to ignore the fact that my graduation is this September and I want to be so much slimmer by then! So despite knowing it's coming up I've just ignored and eaten (...and eaten and eaten and eaten) instead.
In an ideal world I'd like to reach 9 stone but that's a bit of an OTT goal to try to cram in by September, even by my standards lol so instead I reckon I could get down to around 12 stone, giving me a 6 stone 7lbs loss in 5(ish) months which I think is a sensible estimate based on the losses VLCD can give. Getting down to 12 stone would be great as I looked and felt so much better when I was that weight, which is how much I weighed when I met my boyfriend
Anyway, since this is a 12 week challenge, if I behave myself I should be able to drop maybe 3 stone (going by the 1 stone per month vlcd average), leaving me at 15 stone 7 lbs. It seems so far away right now but I know I can do it, we all can!
Best of luck everyone I've got to get ready for work in a bit but will read through this thread properly when I get in tonight, will be good to see other people's stories xx

I'm having 2 shakes a day 3ltrs water and I tinned soup or a mug shot for dinner. I'm currently on day 2 and sooooo hungry. Any ideas on how to keep myself motivated as I feel like I have too much to lose :-( xx

EASIER huh , for some its a breeze , others hard , i really think it depends from person to person , write a list of why your doing the plan , read it over when you feel the diets too hard . also another thing todo if you want to eat something you should not , don't tell yourself you can't have it tell yourself you will have that in ten mins and by doing that the feeling won't be as strong .Can anyone tell me please if it really does get easier in week two. Am on SS and reaaaally want to do it for the 12 weeks but it's dragging
