Total Solution tubbynomore WILL get in the 11's...

Hi all it's my second day on exante and I'm actually finding it quite easy so far. I haven't managed to read through all your posts as there's over 100 pages. Just wondering are u managing to keep the weight off? I have 3stone to loose and I'm worried I'm going though all this effort to just pile it back on at the end? Thanks nat x

Hi Nattylou keeping it off is the hardest part but this diet has taught me how carb sensitive I am and if I stick to low/no carbs I can keep it off no problem.
Over Christmas I gained 11lbs in the 2 weeks but I did have everything going including alcohol ;) within 5 days of starting back I lost nearly half of it and soon got back in the swing of it.

The first few days on Exante are hard but if you cut back on the carbs in the days before then it's not so bad. Before I started back on phase 2 I lost nearly 3 stone and maintained for about 6 weeks before deciding to lose the next 2 to get me under 11st for the first time in almost 20yrs.
I never thought I could do it but I am amazed at the results and feeling good in my clothes and in my own skin is keeping me from wanting to put it back on.

Hope this helps, good luck xx
 
Good morning fellow minis, I'm having an "I feel fat" day today:( I'm still here glugging away, I sooo want to see 11st something on the scales. May be a few weeks away but I'll get there. Need to get some more psyllium husk!

It's cold, wet and miserable here today and I need to go into town for a few bits n bobs. Quick coffee before I go to keep me going methinks ;)
 
Good morning nurse, just looking at your stats, 7 more pounds and you're at goal 2, how motivating is that!
Have a fab day :hug99: xx

Oh my Lord! Why oh why did I put daytime TV on? I'm not getting anything done and I'm a blubbering wreck watching rescue programmes!

Thanks Gaga, a bit of jumping about to Queen and a brisk walk battling with the howling gale soon got me sorted. Plus, I have re-discovered bouillon lol.
Onwards and downwards. How are you?

Thanks littleangel, I don't know if I'm inspiring but if it helps I'm glad :)
It's hard work and even with my ups and downs I have managed to stay here with the help of my mini buddies online and on text. Without them I would have fallen a long time ago.
No matter how long it takes I know I don't want to feel the same as I did last summer. I am hoping the weather improves soon and we can get back out there and strut our shrinking butts ;)

Hi Ali - Are you feeling better today? Did you get your psyllium husk?

Laura XX

Yep. Bisocodyl worked and psyllium caps in H&B buy one get one for a penny. :D how was your day?
 
Glad you are feeling more 'comfortable'!

My day was fine, busy and long as all Monday's are at work! Have only had shakes today and loads of water and plan to do the same tomorrow. It's easier being TS at work - I avoid the staff canteen and to be honest I am too busy to have time to think about eating. Although as I work in a Hotel it can be torture going into the Kitchen and seeing all the fabulous food they have made!

How about you - what have you been up to today apart from crying at animal rescue!!

Hi Ali, glad you're feeling better...I have 'fat' days all the time!!! I too suffer from the unfortunate toilet issue. Think I'll take a leaf out of your book and try a form of exercise.....gym used to help but too expensive. Got to get back on the xbox....been so busy only been on it twice in 2 weeks!!! Also I'll nip into h & b today....nothing seems to work....or works too well for me (sorry tmi) x

1st goal - get into 12 stone bracket!! DONE
2nd goal - get into 11's
