    I just wanted to say a little woohoo for my mum who started the TF diet last week. She went for her first weight in today and has lost 3.8kg in a week! I'm hoping she can stick with it and continue to lose the weight.

    do they advise you to take a chromium supplement on yours renstar - I have blackmores sugar balance, and it really does work wonders. I'll probably keep taking it long after I finish the diet.

    Good Luck Tegan!

    Currently I am planning to stay on it til I get to my goal (10 and a bit kilos to go).
    I imagine the weightloss will slow down though, I know I lost a lot in the first 4 weeks, and I don't expect it to stay at that rate. At this stage I am also planing to do the maintenance program for a while.

    I've lost the same amount of weight before, and kept it off for about 6-12 months til I got pregnant with Milo, but TBH I have never been able to eat a healthy diet, exercise and not put on weight.

    So depending how I go once I get to maintenance, if I am finding it hard I might give WW a try.

    well done Tegan good luck

    Rayray, no they havent recommended to take a supplement? I dont think the "success" diet thru amcal chemist is as thorough as the T.F diet but it works none the less.....

    How mean am I to myself? I bought 2 blocks of choc today (on special) and have put them away in cupboard so to test myself to keep away from them!! DF is already into his (hehe) and I have resisted and know that if i crumble and give in, then ketosis will have to re-start itself and its not worth it! Simply not worth it! Once i lose 3 kgs i will give myself a lil choc but until then i dont deserve to have one i feel in control.... PLUS i have our wedding to motivate me!!! DF is at his ideal weight now (he lost weight recently on shakes)...

    Renstar, thats not mean, thats motivation!
    I am seriously considering buying a block on the Coles brand belgian chocolate to put away, cos my luck they will delete it when I've lost weight and can eat better again (not that I'd eat the whole thing!) I am pretty good with chocolate, I used to be vegan so am used to haveing it around but not eating any.

    Let us know how you go on your first day Tegan.

    Well, not "official" weigh in for me this week, as I am going to a wedding in SA on the weekend, and we're leaving tomorrow (Friday is my weigh in day) I'm pretty sure I've lost something but after last week I am hunting for new bathroom scales on ebay. So I will weigh in "officially" either next Friday or Saturday.

    Do you have to have the fibre in the shakes? I was thinking of just getting the fibre in a tablet form coz omg did it make me sick! Is this suppose to happen? I had my first shake this morning and i could only drink half because it made me really really full and i just felt so nauseous and bloated after it. I hope its not going to be like this the whole time...

    Tegan, I don't have fibre in my shakes (well I have had before but I used benefiber not simply fibre. benefibre dissolves totally and doesn't thicken at all.)

    anyway you don't have to have it at all if you don't need to, but I need to have it so I usually dissolve it in my water and take it that way.

    I've had to stop because i've been really sick and the only thing i can eat and keep down is toast, which your not suppose to have. So i'll have to start again when i'm better.

    Well done on the loss rayray!

    mmm
    looks like its just me again.
    oh well. I went to a new centre to weigh in on the weekend, in Geelong, and I am so impressed!

    The consultants there are so nice, and knowledgable, its so much better than the TW chemist I had been going to.

    Plus I lost 2.1kg for the fortnight! Only 7 more left to go, hooray, I will look like my av again in no time!

    Hi everyone,

    I've just started my fourth week, and so far have lost 5kg. I find it really easy when I am at work during the week, but struggle more on the weekends - I guess 'cause I am not making my salad for lunch or sorting out my fruit first thing in the morning, and there is more chance of going out for tea. Nice to find this thread when i wasn't expecting it.
