It's just 8 days until I start exante now!! Got all my packs delivered and raring to go... I am gonna treat myself to big bottles of mineral water which I will get the day before and chill. I think i will find the water intake quite hard to begin with as I usually don't drink that much but think I will alternate hot and cold water... Especially at work coz I usually have cups of tea. I can't wait to feel a bit more energetic when ketosis kicks in, I've been lacking some get up and go for a few weeks and it's not like me. Ah well 8 days will go by quick. X
 
Between now and when you start, you will probably find it easier if you gradually start to reduce your carb intake and also start to slowly increase your water intake, then it won't be such a shock to your body.

Anyway, good luck with it. Hope you have a great Christmas, and see you on here once you start!
 
I find drinking the water much easier from a sports bottle not a glass-I drink a lot more that way.
 
How do you guys split your water intake over the day, I tend to drink lots at one sitting then none for a few hours etc I know that's not ideal... I'm a dental nurse and can only really drink water in between patients.
 
Can you not have a sports bottle of water in your room with you so you can drink whenever you need it? As like above i tend too drink more water by drinking out of a bottle. I think i read somewhere you can have fizzy sparkling water too but im sure someone can help and says yes or no too that. xxx
 
Oh no fizzy stuff for me I hate fizzy drinks, just never been able to drink them like other people, I don't find they quench my thirst and if I did have it I can only sip it or I'd burst lol maybe I'm just a weirdo i dunno... I guess I could keep one in a cupboard in the surgery... Not really a fan of keeping it out when there is sputum and blood spraying about the place lol
 
Haha! I can't understand fears of the dentist as I've never been in the hot seat... Well except for checkups. I guess I see horrific things everyday so it makes me take good care of mine!
 
I have a really bad fear. In fact talking about it now has made me well up with tears. It just scares me so much and i haven't been since i was younger. I get panicky and feel sick n cry. Its horrid :( xxx
 
Awww chubbzey I'm sorry for making you feel anxious!! Coz I see it everyday I don't realise how bad some peoples fears are. Many really scared patients we see say after their treatment that it wasn't as bad as they had conjured up in their heads. Xx
