Definitely wait until your holidays are over imo - and yogurts of all varieties are out until a later stage of the diet. Have a good read if the book when you're off relaxing and see if it feels right for you. As far as I'm aware though ketosis is definitely not the reason your hair thins on a vlcd - fast weight loss is. It's called teflum effluvium and can technically happen on any diet although with vlcd it's most common as the loss is so dramatic and you're not getting enough calories for the body to put into hair growth. But it basically just means you've shocked your body with the sudden weight loss - it will grow back. I think it's usually a 3 month cycle if I remember rightly. It can happen after surgery and after giving birth, too.

Yeah think that's the best option
It's been 4 months since I did a vlcd and my hair is still really thin, I'm also taking supplements for it, is Atkins classed as a quick weigh loss diet? I'm not really interested in the fast losses, any loss I'm happy with as at the moment Nothings working xxxx

Morning hin I'm not to sure about that, have you checked the carb count? I think things like that arnt recommended as it can stall some people maybe but I've been drinking tons of diet fizzy and it hasn't effected me.

Someone more experienced will have to answer that for you though x

Morning Nyssa... You're doing really well!

I would recommend taking a multi vitamin supplement and I also take Perfectil to help with nails and hair - my hairdresser recommended it and I really noticed the difference xx

 

[nyssa88]

Thanks alpaca I will have a look out for that

I made my first MIM!

Wasn't to sure at first with how it looked but oh my good it's lovely and I prefer it to bread! I sliced mine up popped in the toaster to crisp up and buttered, reminded me of a seedy whole meal bread but soo much better.

Not sure if it's meant to look like this but the taste over rides it lol

 

[mummymorgon]

Good luck with your adventure hun x

 

[Alpaca]

Mim looks great! X

 

[moonlights]

Looks just right! I think they're best toasted.

 

[stubbsey]

regarding the drinks, its best to stear clear of squash and stuff that say no added sugar, they need to say sugar free really zero calorie stuff, have a lovely break xx

 

[nyssa88]

What about things like coke zero I am going to try and get off if but am drinking a lot of since starting atleast 1 2 litre bottle a day!

 

[stubbsey]

anything that is zero calorie is fine but my atkins book says not to drink cafeine i am still drinking yorkshire tea not got round to buying decaf yet
