Tony Ferguson Weight Loss Chatter #2

you can also have green tea, all herbal teas etc.

did you order specific flavours of the shakes Kelly, or get the mixed box (I assumed from your other post you ordered online)

Yeah I did, I don't like coffee so I ordered vanilla, banana, choc and strawberry. I also got one or two of the soups to see if I would like them. I got the chromium and a shaker, easier than going out and getting it myself :) Should be here in the next couple of days, exciting!!! I better go eat my fave foods before it gets here - making roast for dinner with all the trimmings tonight heheh...

My delivery arrived! Will be starting with you on Monday :)

Yay!
If you ordered their shaker, watch out for the lid, you have to put it on a certain way or it will leak.

I weighed in today and lost 1.5kg this week :) hooray!

Oh bugger I did get their shaker! But I am very excited to get started. Wont be holding back this weekend though, going to have a good one with the family and indulge... then onto TF for a while - want to shed a few kilos for sure, very determined.

Good luck Kelly!!

Well done Rayray :D

Okay I just had my first TF!!! Very excited, also because on the weekend I convinced John to do it with me!!! So we're both on it today and determined.

Something I thought of that we could do at the start of each thread is include our names and the flavours we like? Because I know I was bombarding poor Rach about it and it would be a good guide to see what the popular ones are.

So just reply to this thread with your likes and dislikes and I will add them to the start :) So far I have had vanilla (yum) and John liked his Strawberries and Cream, which I am sure I will like too! Looking forward to the next one, especially since I had a very, very bad weekend!!! From choccy, to alcohol, to snack foods and fully cooked breakfasts - I was very spoilt :)

Okay here are some mini profiles I have created let me know if you think of more!

If you could all reply with yours that would be great!

I cannot stress enough the importance of high fibre intake on this diet. I left my benefiber at work on the weekend and forgot about it until I tried to go to the loo last night. It was worse than after I had Milo. I'm having extra today.

Does anyone know if there are shakers other than Pink? John doesnt want a pink one understandably LOL

the shakers come in blue as well :)
I just use my old tupperware one now.

Okay another question LOL!!!

Can you pre-prepare them? We don't have a second shaker at the moment and John is taking them to work pre-prepared.

I will add some FAQ's to the first post in future ;)

With the fibre, metamucil is fine isnt it?

yep. theres forum on the site you order from, that has some info on this.
you can pre prepare them but they have to be consumed within 12 hours, and need to be kept cold/refridgerated, so he'd take them in a cool pack or something while travelling.

I think metamucil is fine, it has sugar in it though which I'm guessing is why its not one of the ones they recommend. I've got benefiber just cos it was on special.

I have such a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuge headache :cry:

I hope it goes away soon :( Is it okay to take nurofen? Cos I know they have a sugar coating...

not sure, but I'd sooner risk it and take a bit longer for the ketosis to kick in than put up with it.

I feel so rotten and miserable. I still have this huge headache and now I feel so nauseous that I feel like I could throw up... is this normal? :(

I don't know about the nausea thing. I never had the headaches, but i'd switched to decaf coffee three weeks before I started TF.
Its not uncommon to have them for up to three days I think.
