Hello All hope you didn't miss me too much yesterday, I got bored and decided on a gig, walked so I could drink so did about 3/4 hour walk each way, and going home was all uphill!!!! And of course I danced too - and this morning I am lighter than I was on Friday not quite back to posted but not far off now, am quite chuffed

Hi quak, hope you don't mind me butting in on your diary to ask for some advice but here goes -
I notice you lost the bulk of your weight on exante (congrats btw, you look amazing, incredible!!! )

Now you eat Atkins style and I am wondering how you made the transition from VLCD? I plan on making this transition myself as I approach my goal weight and am just not sure on what way to go about it.

On lipotrim there is a refeed sheet that suggests you eat low fat and reintroduce portions or rice, pasta, potatoes n bread (poison lol) within the first week of eating food - so as I plan on eating low carb for life, do I scrap this and jump onto induction, or OWL to work my way up the rungs or pre maint :s..

Obviously everyone's different but how did you do it personally? Thanks in advance for any advice you may be able to give me xx

Hi, and thanks for the lovely comments
personally I did not do a refeed as such, more or less just jumped into Atkins induction where I have been more or less ever since, only in the last couple of months have I been upping my carbs a bit to see how I do with them but still staying well away from bread, pasta and rice (unless I have a bit of a mad weekend last last weekend and it went a bit pear shaped as there was no time at all for cooking) but got straight back into it after if you do have a blip and it does come off again.

Well done on your losses, you are doing really well and I think making a sensible choice of low carbing for your maintenance. Ask away and I will help if I can x

It's a little brighter here now. What have you got planned for your week off?

 

[Quak]

Very little so far to be honest! A couple of days out with MiL, gig on Friday and hopefully a rehearsal a couple of days before but that is about it - am sure we will find things to do!
