I personally would hold off on going to the gym at first as you won't have the energy till you get into a routine and it won't really speed up your losses may just tone tone you.

If your watching the pennies I think spending it on the diet would be better x x

 

[stef2009]

Agree with above, personally the gym in my opinion is a no - go on a vlcd unless it is very light exercise just like toning, you are on a vlcd, that's hard enough on your body, adding alot of exercise to is alot for it to cope with. Some ppl do go the gym on this diet and are fine, but with the experience i had ill never do it again.
If you have days ur really struggling, have extra protein, it wont damage the diet, its better than having something U shouldn't
Your Doing fab keep it up xc

 

[pripri121]

Hey lyndzi and steph...i agree with u both lol coz iv been on other vlcds before such as cd n exante and the lemon drink along with one meal a day lol n on all of them i lost weight...dint av to lose as much as this time mind u :/ thts y the question about shrinkin luv handles n waist n etc...??...think this the biggest iv been since my skool days lol....bt hw to xplain that to others?

[stef2009]

Just tell her u can't afford it till u get a job, and u will think about it then xx

 

[pripri121]

Hate it wen ppl r sat there givin me diet advice wen i kno what im doin :/....its onli coz this yr iv put the most weight on that ne one in ma fam has seeen me...ahh thnx hun cz hips thighs n luv handles r hugeee atm lmaoo xx

 

[stef2009]

Some people are just nosy and think they know best and everything! Just politely smile and remember YOU know what your doing and your in control ;-) that's what I do anyway, because telling them to f@#k off didnt go down too well ha!!

If they are the areas that need losing weight im sure they will :-D xx

Well done on being on day 4, wish I was there now! Going to start tomorrow, I'm now following your diary and we can motivate each other! I know we're as different as can be but we're both starting our journey, so here's to that. How have you found it now you're on your 4th day? I drink lots of my water through mint or green tea, can't stomach cold water when it's cold out.

[slim_and_happy]

Don't get discouraged Hun. Sometimes it takes your body good few days to start shifting the weight. The bottom line is. If you stuck to the plan you WILL lose weight. Impossible not to.
Keep your chin up and step away from those scales
