Hi all,
This morning I am trying the banana shake... I must say, I am not a fan at all! It tastes like the foam banana sweets you would get as a child, and I never liked them either. But if you love foam bananas, you will love this drink!
But hey ho... Its my breakfast and I need it.
I must say, the Cranberry Water Enhancer by Exante is lovely! It is not as sweet as squash and packed with more flavour.
Guys and Girls!
I found out today that we can have a stock cube a day. Some people suggested making a stock drink, so of course I tried it! I added the hot water to half a cube, mixed it all in, added some black pepper, and you know what.... IT WAS SO DANG GOOD! After having 2 mugs, I felt like I had eaten a lovely chicken dinner! It was lovely after a few days of sweet meal replacements. This however, is not to be had as a meal replacement due to the lack of nutrients and calories. We still need that extra replacement to keep us feeling full and keep the ketosis going. This is 100% going to be my new not so guilty pleasure!
Also... Gotta love a Doctor Who mug, am I right?
Love, Holly
Hey all!
Today has been a great day! I feel like everything is settling down with this diet and I must say the Strawberry jam and yoghurt bar and the honeycomb shakes are AMAZING! They are utterly delicious. To top the lot, did a cheeky weigh in this evening and in 3 days, I have lost 5lbs! It’s insane. I am so so happy!
I wish I had done this sooner. I have more energy, feel brighter and yummy food. :)
First morning in Tenerife (August 2017).
On that morning, my Dad and I decided to do an early morning walk around the local area and discover what was around.
Over the last few years, I have really fallen in love with Succulents, so I was over the moon to see succulents/cacti everywhere, and I just had to get a snap with them, haha!
This was an odd trip, probably one of my least favorite, but not because of the place, but because for the entire 2 weeks, I was full of a chest infection and had a temperature in the already hot climate. , it was horrible.
Soon enough, I will be able to give this little island another chance as my family are investing in a holiday home there and I cannot wait to really get exploring!
I must say though, the marina in Las Galletas is beautiful and if you ever get the chance you must, must, MUST take the catamaran boat whale watching tour. It was the first time I had ever seen Pilot whales and Bottle-Nose dolphins. The catamaran took us all along the shoreline, out to sea, to coves for snorkelling etc. It truly was a lovely day.
There was a wonderful festival on in the town on one of our last days there and although it was loud, it was captivating.
I highly recommend a local steak house called Guachinche El Cordero! The steaks are bigger than your head and the tastiest thing I have ever had. Shared between a few people and a plate of Canarian potatoes, it is the most wonderful dinner ever, and not to bad on the wallet either.
If you ever get the chance, and you like bustling little towns full of culture, pop over to El Medano. It was a beautiful little place, and there is a tiny little café right on the sea wall which does amazing boozey cocktails and giant plates of sprats and whitebait for those fish lovers out there. There was cute little shops, bakeries, pubs, posh bistros, and its only little beach in the centre of town which although is busy with locals, was still a very enjoyable afternoon for myself and my family.
If you go to Tenerife and decide to go to the top of the volcano Mount Teide, go the long way! Get a decent 4 wheel drive car, don’t forget your balls of steel and drive up, with a detour to Masca, you will not regret it!
So I said it was one of my least favorite trips, but looking back, though I was ill, I think I am wrong. It was a great trip!
Hey all,
Today again, I have been really good and stuck to the plan! Woohoo! Day 2 done.
However, I did something stupid today... I weighed myself (I know... I know... it’s only day two, but I was intrigued)… and I was horrified to see that it said that I am 2 stone heavier!!! In 2 days!!! Of course, I am panicking a bit. I have contacted the Exante team to see if they may know of a reason, but my brand new scales may also be temperamental... My thought is maybe it is water weight? I don't normal drink water to be honest, but I have been ensuring that I am drinking my 3 litres a day now. I am really hoping it is a fluke technical issue. Has anyone else had this experience? If so, do you have any advise?
I will update this post once I hear from the Exante team, but I am going to stay positive and keep going in the meantime!
On another note, for anyone that is interested, for someone who does not like cherry flavorings, this cherry/berry shake was actually very pleasant; the chocolate/caramel crunch bar was very sweet and chewy.
Can I just ask, is anyone else really frustrated with the new series of Jane The Virgin? I am so Team Michael and last week's ep broke my little heart!
Oh my god! Exante vanilla shake is AMAZING! It honestly tastes like ice cream, I am gobsmacked.
This morning I am feeling full and keen to get going!
I must say, although we are only on day 2, I'm enjoying this diet so far.
This is the oldest picture I can find of me, and it was of one of the best times of my life. My friend, Helen, moved to Dubai a few years ago, shortly after, I went to visit. Had an amazing 10 days, and this picture was taken on a Desert Safari, which was so much fun! I have never felt so calm, happy, at ease and completely and utterly free. I cannot wait to go back again later this year.
Day One
Hi all,
Today was my first day on the Exante Diet, and I must say, at 21:33pm, I am so hungry! Haha! But its fine. I know my body will adjust and that I have had a healthy balance today.
I started my day with a surprisingly delicious Strawberry Shake, followed by a litre of water. Lunch was a cup of coffee and the Exante Peanut Butter bar, which was divine! Dark chocolate encasing peanut butter flavoured, fudgy textured wonder! Dinner was the Spag Bol, which though the flavor was good, the texture was a little odd with the soy flakes rather than meat.
Now, I am on the Total Solution, which means that I can only have 600 kcal a day, and therefore nothing else apart from the provided meals you see here.
I have to admit, though I am hungry, I am not uncomfortable, and I am actually really looking forward to where this journey will take me.
Love ya,
Holly
Hi-de-hi!
Hey all,
I felt that it was a good idea to do a quick introduction.
My name is Holly, I’m 26, single and from the UK.
I am an avid reader (currently rereading all the Harry Potter’s because we all know they are the best!), love me some Netflix and seeing more of the world when I have the opportunity. I also live with Depression, which I may touch upon as time goes by (but don’t worry, it won’t be often, I am pretty good these days).
I am (apparently) a BBW, but lets just say I’m a fatty, and I’m not going to be offended about it, I have spent too many years getting upset every time someone comments on my weight. But honestly, I don’t mind it. I don't mind my tummy and I sure as hell love my fat ass!
However, getting down to the nitty gritty, for the past 2 and a half years, I have suffered with constant pain in my back, which is caused by a few factors, but the main one being my weight. This has meant that although I knew I needed to lose weight for my health, I could not face the pain, because I am a giant wimp!
I plan to go on holiday to Malta in a few weeks, and I am going alone. With the pain in my back affecting how far I can walk, I have really come to the realisation that I need to grow the hell up and make some changes. So, as of today, 13 May 2019, I have started the Exante Diet. I am aware, that just working hard for a few weeks will not make a huge difference to my holiday in a few weeks, but I can at least feel a bit of joy in knowing that I am doing what I can now to improve my future. I am also doing some simply exercises at the moment and will work myself up.
This blog is for me to log my success, and of course the inevitable occasional slip ups, as I try to better my life, whilst also proving that if I can do it, so can you!
With my love of the world, I will also be posting about the different places I will be visiting and have visited, the occasional book, tv show and movie reviews, and just to share with you all the little things that bring me an ounce of joy.
I hope you all enjoy this as much as I do, and feel free to get in touch. I am an open book, my friends.
Love ya,
Holly x
