Seeking buddy for new start

Hi, I'm Shell. I'm getting married abroad next year so need to drop from 16/18 to 12! Starting on Tuesday and need some help. Should be ok as lost 2 stone with CD but put most of it back on:mad: Maybe we should be each others buddy! Good luck everyone x
 
Hi ymtb, you will be through the worst by the time I start on Monday so good luck with the rest of the weekend. I haven't ordered any soups just shakes and bars, keeping the soups til October I will probably appreciate them all the more by then when it is colder and I have had two months on shakes. x
 
Morning all day 1 today and I mean business :) I'm waiting till 2pm to have my shake I'm fed up of gaining weight.

How's everyone ? X
 
Hi Im Chris - Day 1 today and I made a vanilla shake up in my smoothie maker and it was lovely, I used 300mls water and a bit of ice. I have download the lighterlife podcasts and have listened to two already they are very inspirational. Pauline Quirke talks about having a ritual with her packs so I am going to try and get a routine going. Not decided when to have what as yet but for today I am going to have another shake at 3.30pm and have my bar this evening.
 
Congrats to those guys that have almost completed day 1 :)
Yesterday I was almost scared about tues coming lol bit I am ok and 100% want this so here goes I was soo good from weds through to sat and dropped 4lbs but hangover days I've had a baad 2 days so think now tomorrow will be harder :-( oh well my fault lol

Day 1 - Done
I think the shakes are nice and the bar is a strange texture but it is fine also. I could see me maybe having an extra shake today, I am not going to get to the painful hunger stage when I dont have to, it will just be until ketosis kicks in. I have quite a bit of work to do which should take up till 8pm thay might help take my mind off my stomach growling.
 
Hi

I am Helen and I am hoping to start tomorrow, if my packs arrive in time. If not then I have some Asda measure up shakes and a tesco ultraslim bar which will hopefully tide me over until they do arrive.

Like Mandy I lost 108lb with Lighterlife in 2007 but have regained it all. I have learnt my lesson though and I think I have got my head around the whole emotional eating thing now. I have also set a higher target for now so I won't be on Exante as long as I was on Lighterlife for.

I would be very pleased if I could join you all.

Helen x
 
Hello to you all......I am just starting week 4 today, so am fairly new.....I weigh in on Tuesdays.

You'll find lots of help and support on here, it's been brilliant for me so far and I constantly have to check new threads all day long.....my boss hasn't caught me yet!

Anyway, welcome and good luck for the first weigh in.
 
Hi lellylion ,
Well done on a fantastic weightloss, if I can get a stone off I would be motivated to go the distance. What time do you have what? I didnt have a shake until 11 this morning but it was too late I think.
 
Hi Helen,
Good luck and I hope your pack arrives, mine came really quickly. What have your ordered, I just went for shakes and bars. My sister has just lost a lot of weight with cambridge and she kept it a big secret. She lives on her own and confessed to having absolutley no food in the house apart from her packs. I have done the Atkins and lost 50lbs with that and I remember going hours and hours without feeling hungry and sometimes at night I would try to recall if I had eaten, how weird is that. xxx

I start with half a bar at breakfast, then have my shake at lunchtime around 1pm, soup at 6pm ish, then the other half bar with a coffee at 8.30 ish.

When I started I had my shake at breakfast 8.30 ish, then bar at lunch and soup in the evening. But found I struggled to have all the shake that early as I am not a breakfast eater really. So changed to just half a bar to get my body working, then just drink water throughout the morning till lunchtime with the odd coffee now and then. I don't feel hungry doing it this way.

To be honest you just need to try a few times and see what suits you best.
 
Day 1 nearly over and I don't feel too bad
I had shake at 11 then bar at 2 then another shake at 4.
I just can't wait to feel and see results :) I'm the same weight as this morning (daily weigher here) but that's a good sign!! Xx

Hi all, hope you're all doing well. Started yesterday so Day 2 today. Day 1-had a chocolate shake for breakfast :-S then tomato soup for lunch, which I did actually like! Thai chicken for dinner and 2.5 litres of water. Really struggling with no milk in tea/coffee as I do not drink fizzy drinks. Any ideas? Good luck everyone x
 
Morning all day 2 for me too :) and I feel great I have semi skimmed milk in my teas and never effected me:)
Have a good day all x
 
Hi
My packs have arrived today, just ordered bumper box of shakes and have been and bought ultraslim bars from Tesco as I read that they are fine to use with Exante.
I have started this morning - had a glucose tolerance test this morning anyway so had been fasting for a few hours and so couldn't have breakfast. Have just had a bar so far, going to have a shake shortly.
 
Hi Helen, That is good you are able to start today, I will be interested to hear what the Ultraslim bars are like, I am thinking I could do without the Exante bars, Shakes all the way (maybe lol) Day 3 for me today so far so good. Chris x

Hi Helen just wondered how much you paid for your bars as I'm about to order my second batch from exante but wondered if tesco ones work out cheaper.
