You may find having more then one bar may a: have a laxative effect or b: bring you out of ketosis.
I have done other VLCD's in the past and the bars was always a problem for me, I would always have 2 in one day even though I knew I would spend the rest of the evening on the toilet. Not nice!

You don't actually need ketosis to lose weight, it helps though and with keeping hunger pains at bay etc...but its not detrimental to lose the weight. Ketosis for me does not cure hunger, I still feel full on, grumbling hunger every day, have done for 7 weeks....so in my case if I wanted to have the 2 bars a day and was happy enough having the higher cals/carbs, I would. It may have a laxative effect on some people....that would actually be a bonus for me right now as well lol!
The only thing is...it may spark of a craving for more food as they are quite sweet. I look forward to my bar a day so am happy at just the one...but in all honesty I don't know why you couldn't, maybe someone will know for deff why you can't or can..

Lol they were like little ready made cartons of milkshake you just stick a straw in, like little juice cartons. But I found they also tasted better than the ones you make yourself

Who told you that
You can have Exante bars from day 1 why would you need to wait a few months? Im totally confused with that
