VLCD

[Snap8TheCat]

Anyone doing one at the moment?

I've started exante this morning. Last year I lost 3 stone with Cambridge but Exante is loads cheaper. No meeting though so I need moral support if any one can give it!

Starting weight 249.2lb. Awful I know so no need to tell me.

My info

Height 5ft 2
Starting weight 78.2kg
Weight as of today (day 29) 74.6kg

Total lost so far - 8lb

My official weigh in days are Tuesdays but I do weigh every day

Oh, my first goal is 70kg and a BMI of 28. Not decided on the next one yet!

18.3, 18.3!!!!!!!!!! I was doing the housework this morning singing 18 3, 18 3 ha ha! These are my two days off this week and normally the worst for temptation but I am going to try and keep busy and have a 20 minute session on my mini trampoline along to some dance music. Good luck everybody, and stay determined. And drink loads of water. And the other stat for me is that I am 5 feet tall, so you can imagine 18 3 😁 Is not tiny. I go on holiday in November and would love to lose another 2 stones before then. Lost 3 stones already.

Started shake that weight today. Can I join you guys?

Hooray!!! Well done Buxton. In the seventeens really soon. A lovely boost when you move into a different stone bracket

Welcome hilbil. Nice to have you on board.
I hope your first day goes really well

Thanks. Going ok so far. I've had two shakes and 1.5 litres of water up until this point

18 3 still, but that's probably because I ate a ton of salad (neg Cals but still bulky!) at a friends. Keeping myself busy today having a declutter and have already sorted 3 bin bags out. 2 for the charity shop and I for the bin. A lot of size 32 clothes. Some still with tags. I am about 7lbs from fitting in a pair of 24 Marks and Sparks jeans. When I started they wouldn't go up my thighs. Now I can button and zip them up, but they are too tight to be comfortable at the mo! Hope everybody is having a good day and drinking loads of water to flush the fat out 😎

18 st 2 and a half! The 17's are nearer and nearer! Hope you are all ok.

Well done Buxton.

Ive lost 5lbs so far in 2 days! I know its my first week so wont always be like this but I am happy with the way things are going so far

Brilliant Hilbil. Even 2lb a week is half a stone a month! I was 18 stone 2 this morning. Hey hey, another 8 ounces down! Tis better than staying still!

18 st 1 and a half. So close! That works out at 253 pounds, so i really want to be under 250! Over 40 lbs lost now! Hope everybody is doing ok.

18st 1! Ha ha. Getting rid, 8oz at a time!

18st and 3/8 of a pound so 10 ounces off overnight! Still - 8 ounces a day is 3.5 pounds a week/stone a month, so can't complain :-)

Well done Buxton. You are doing really well. I am on my hols so just enjoying myself within reason. I will be fully back with you in a week or so. Pretty quiet on here though, hoping everyone else is doing ok too. Remember this thread is here for the times things aren't going to plan as well as the times they are.

Thanks so much for writing on your hols! Hope you are having a good time. I have hopefully now got in the habit of writing my weight on here, and will try to do so, good or bad. Have been fairly strict today, but swapped a shake for a lighter life pack of crisps and a protein bar from Superdrug. Same Cals as a shake but just a little change. If I haven't lost a least 4 ounces by the morning I will be hopping mad!

18 st dead on. So half a pound lost, give or take an ounce! Went into a bigger Superdrug and bought some more lighter life snacks. They do some freeze dried strawberries at 29 calories a bag. hope everbody is ok!

17 stone 13 1/2! I didn't anything to eat last night though. Just 3 vodka and sodas whilst out for a drink.

Whooop hooo Buxton!

17 st 12 and 3/8 today, so another few ounces off! Another plus is I have now been taken off high blood pressure medication!
Thank you for your words of encouragement Pinkie.
Going to dinner with friends tonight, so will be healthy, but the bulk of what I eat will probably cause me to stay the same, but who knows?

Hello everyone. I've started Slim and Save today. I have about 44kg to loose (over 6 stone). I lost weight on a VLCD many years ago but rushed going back to normal food and eventually put it back.
My motivation is health. My feet and knees are creaky. I'm 48 and really want the weight off before I hit menopause as it is going to be harder to lose it afterwards.
Good luck to all of you.

17:13 today, but totally expected as I went out to dinner last night. Had half a dozen chips but the rest was v healthy; loads of veg and salad.

I'm back

After my test week last month i'm finally ready to start properly with VLCD and my food pack arrived today so here we go..

Height 5'2
Start Weight - 86.2kg
Goal Weight - 60kg
Method - Exante Total Solutions
Things to remember - It'll get easier after the first few days. If I need to it's also okay to have an extra shake. Drink lots of water.

17:12 today. Going out for lunch today, but determined to make good choices. Good luck Upinscots
! Remember, loads of water!
