    there's no point in doing it if it makes him ill as he'd end up dehydrated - hopefully the counsellor wouldn't have let him carry on anyway.

    Her suggestion was that he went on to the 2 shakes and a calorie controlled meal, or split the shakes down to 8 small meals, but he's still be having the shakes :confused:

    Spud do you have the yellow management book from your CDC? Near the back of there are really healthy low carb meals. There are for the plans 4/5/6 but if he could have one of those a day, something like a light sandwich/salad for lunch and bran for breakfast I think he will still be losing a good proportion of weight. Obvously not as much as you as you are in ketosis but its still a loss. And by the time you get to the higher plans he will have cooking those meals down to a tea ;)

    Whoop Whoop ~ well done Maz :j

    No, will try to remember to buy some off CDC next week. I've been 100% yesterday and today, so shouldnt be too long before I'm back fat burning again :rolleyes:

    Spud I'm sure someone said (Maz? Bunny?) the other day that you can just buy them from a pharmacy and they're cheaper. You just ask for ketosticks....I think.

    I wish I didnt weigh at home - I'd put a pound on yesterday after my little blip. I'm pretty sure it's gone again though IYKWIM ;)

    I might try Snagg's suggestion of trying to get them in the local pharmacy, but if I cant, I'll give you a shout, ta Pap :D
