HI, im new to this site and also vlcd's.
This is my first day on ss and have found it alot easier than
I thought it would be, thank god!
This is the first time in my life that I have been overweight
(im 27) and it is awful. I basically put on 5 stone in
Just over a year and a half, due to medication.
I have tried everything but with no success, but after
reading some of the truly inspirational stories on
here and how you all support eachother, I have never
felt so confident!
Here's to us all getting our lives back
XxX
 
Hi Leah, welcome. Hope your first day went well.
Slow but surely wins the race. Stick with it the first week is the hardest.
Drink plenty of water, the more you drink the more you shrink :D
 
Hi, well done on completing your first day. I'm starting tomorrow so I hope I can manage it too - never done a VCLD before.

Wishing you lots of luck - we can do this!
 
Best of luck...stick with it. I put on 4 stone in six months a couple of years ago due to steroid medication..basically I blew up like a balloon. Tried slimming world, weight watchers and atkins with limited and very slow success and eventually gave up after a few weeks. Exante works..it can be tough going at times, last week I had a wobble but back on track now. The results speak for themselves...and this site is a great way to get support and inspiration :)
 
THanks, hopefully we can all support eachother.x.
 
Well,the start of day 2 and still feeling ok. Already drank
lots of water, dont feel hungry at all and no side effects yet!
My plan is to have my first pack at lunch time, then second
At tea, then my bar in the evening.
I start to get really hungry in the evening, so hopefully this
Should keep me going!
Cant believe how motivated I feel! Just so happy not to have
to calorie count or portion control, it's all just there ready for me.
Cant wait for weigh in next thursday.x.
 
Good luck Hun :) xx
 
Hello and welcome.... exante is a fab diet x
 
THanks guys.x.
Start of day three, been 100% TS so far and feeling good. Had a party last night
and while everyone tucked into sausage and mash, I sat eating my soup!
It was hard at first but the soup was actually ok and combined with water
I felt stuffed!
Heres to 100% TS today! .x.
 
Day 4....bring it on, im in the zone! Planning to stay TS till christmas, so want to get some of this weight gone forever!
 
Good on you girl. I'm with you 100% TS until December xxx
 
Cool, at least ill have someone to moan to when im down lol!
 
Hiya I`m a newbie it`s day one but you seem to be doing really well and tha`ts encouraging I am goin to try and sole source until Xmas day if I can Come of itl for that day only. I have got 4st to lose. Im 5ft 1inch tall.Starting weight 13st. I know xmas is a hard time to lose weight but in my job Im lucky to get any days off over Christmas. I`m fighting for Christmas day off at the min but other people want it so I may not get it. I am looking forward to buying c lothes I like rather than what looks ok because of my weight. Looking forward to reading all the posts and posting mine It wont be easy but am inspired by the posts I have read so far x
 
Hey Lark
I think if you really want it you can do it! It will be hard over christmas, but ill be on here alot for support lol! This site has been really amazing, when you read all of the success stories and knowing we are all going through the same thing really helps.
Good luck to you hun, im the same, cant wait to fit into my nice clothes again ;)
 
Day 5, brrr feel cold! Still 100% st and feeling fine. So excited for thursday wi, hope everyone else is doing good.x.
 
Day 6 100% ts, no cheats! WI tomorrow, very excited. I have also tried all the flavours of shakes/bars/soups and like them all, happy days:)
Only drinking about 2.5 litres of water a day, but thats not including the cups of coffee/green tea which adds up to roughly 5 to 7 cups, so hopefully thats enough.
I have become a bit bunged up, but going to take a couple of dulcolax, that should do the trick.
Cant believe I have lasted thus long with no cheating, first time ever!
Hope your all doing ok aswell my fellow soon to be skinny minnies .x.
 
:eek: a couple of dulcolax had me running all day, I only take 1 now :D

Oh, thanks for that, ill just take one to start with! Lol, hiw you been getting on?
 
I'm back in the zone this week, 100% TS and looking forward to WI tomorrow :D
Not a single cheat has passed these lips (for a change :p) and I'm not hungry. Have been really thirsty tho and bunged-up like you. I found senna was enough for me last week, dulcolax was too harsh.

Here's to both of us, happy peeps tomorrow ;) xx
