That's it really. Today is day 1 and I feel I could do with a bit of moral support from other VLCDieters.
Cooking the DC's food is not fun. Grin

I'm here :) well done for a 100% day!!

I've lost 9 lbs so far so I'm really pleased. I'm going to try and join the gym next week so hopefully I will continue to stay focused.

Hi lardbean, where r u? R u ok?

LardBean · 23/09/2012 19:11

Hi sorry I've been ages replying. Well done for your good day wannabe and huge well done to you timefor!
I've had a good day for me (considering that I'm not doing Exante 100%) nothing naughty and I'm still losing a little everyday. I might have a small glass of white wine this evening because its either that or the bloody totm is going to push me into the arms of a family size galaxy bar!
I'm not going to beat myself up while I'm on this diet as I'm not doing it to punish myself I'm doing it FOR myself iyswim. If it slows down my weight loss then I'll deal with it. Slow and steady wins the race and all that. I think I will have lost around 4 or 5 ponds this week so I'm happy with that.
Hope you are both having good weekends Smile

I've got pain in my gut.is this normal or do I have to worry about it? Couldn't sleep whole night.aches and pains in whole body. Please if someone know anything about it let me know.

timeforanewname · 24/09/2012 15:48

Well done to both of you!!!

Sorry to hear your feeling poorly, I have no idea if it could be down to exante. Are you on minimins? they have a whole section for exante and there some very helpful people on there.

Im crap and ate last night :( I had 2 slices of pizza, a handfull of chips and a chicken wing from the kebab shop. I am so disappointed in myself but it has had a good effect on me, I was finally able to go to the toilet!! haha. Ive lost a total of 11lbs now but my first weeks weigh in isnt till tonight, No idea if i will have put a bit back on thanks to the pizza.

I don't think its knocked me out of ketosis though as ive only had a bar today so far and im not hungry yet.

wannabefit · 24/09/2012 16:01

Thanks, and try not to cheat.I know it's hard but you can do it.I will try on minimins then.Maybe someone know the answer.

wannabefit · 25/09/2012 16:11

So far so good...

LardBean · 25/09/2012 16:17

well done wannabe, I've had a pants day. I'm ordering more shakes tomorrow and then I'm going to get back on the sodding waggon. I say pants, a small kitkat and a few picks at leftover crumble, nowhere near a real binge pre diet Blush

wannabefit · 25/09/2012 16:37

wannabefit · 25/09/2012 19:15

I bought ketone sticks today and bad news I am not on ketosisShock Maybe cause I checked at this time of the day.They said we need to check early in the morning for a fair result.Looking forward for tomorrow now.Hoping for good newsWink

LardBean · 25/09/2012 20:29

wannabefit · 26/09/2012 17:47

Hi, I m going for 1 week break from diet.We need one week off after every four weeks.when I was placing my order for shakes then they ask me if I had my one week off, which I didn'tSad So that explain about constant pain in my tummy.I will try to behave and will be back on Monday.I will be with u guys anyways.I lost one stone in four weeks :) I m over the moon now.

wannabefit · 27/09/2012 21:14
