New Year’s Resolution Diet

It’s That Time Again

Here we go again; that time of year where we tell ourselves this time I’ll stick to it.    If you don’t know what I’m talking about it’s the dreaded New Year’s resolution diet!  We all do it…. we have all been there and yes I’m saying it again too.  You will find my exclusive Exante discount code at the bottom of this blog post.

My Reason For This New Year’s Resolution Diet

It’s not really for blood sugar for me but it always helps that but it’s about some other health problems I have which I will be writing about in more detail soon.  I’m currently undergoing lots of tests because of Barret’s Oesophagus which is a pre-cancerous condition.

My Reason For Losing Weight

At the moment I have Level D oesophagitis, a hiatus hernia, gastritis and Barret’s Oesophagus and am on high strength PPI’s.  Weight loss and diet will help to some degree so to lose some weight at the same time will be great.  For this, I am going to be using Exante products again as I trust in them 100% and I know they are great products and they work.   I will also be using them for at least 12 weeks so if you want to accompany me on this journey please do.

Because of this, I am getting all my products together so I can start on 1st January with no excuses.   This time I have new products to try and also to review for you guys.  So let us look at some of Exante’s new products that will be included in my diet.

New Year’s Resolution Diet

From 1st January 2022, my diet will consist of 4 Exante meal replacements a day; broken down as below:

Exante Meal Replacement Bars – These I will be having for breakfast.  TIP – What I tend to do is cut them in half and have one half with a cup of black tea for breakfast and the other half mid-morning.  My favourites are the lemon yoghurt, strawberry jam, chocolate and orange, and the toffee nut.

Exante Meal Replacement Shakes – These I have at lunchtime/midday. I tend to stick to Cherries and Berries, Almond, or Vanilla.  Sometimes I will also have a shake for my evening meal too. TIP – When making the shakes please make sure you use very cold water from the fridge they taste so much better for it.  Also, don’t make them up in advance they have to be drunk as soon as you have made them taste the best.

Exante Meal Replacement Meals – This is my hot meal of the day and I tend to go for the spaghetti bolognese pots and the shepherd’s pie, apple crumble.  TIP – With the bolognese, I add dried oregano and a splash of tabasco.  Add any herbs you like.  With the shepherd’s pie, I add a dash of Worcestershire sauce and pepper.

I have talked about the above products already as you know.  However, this time I will be adding the following to my diet too.

Exante Burst – This is a fruity and refreshing low-calorie multivitamin energy drink with added collagen, caffeine and green tea extract. Available in three flavours: Strawberry Lime, Tropical and Mixed Berry.

Exante Slender Sip – This is a Cherry drink containing glucomannan which contributes to weight loss.  Once consumed, glucomannan aids weight loss by absorbing water and gently expanding in your stomach.

The  7-day pack provides you with 21 sachets, each containing real cherry juice and 1g of glucomannan.  Glucomannan is recognised and approved by the EU Commission to contribute to weight loss.  It is a water-soluble dietary fibre that expands in your stomach.  It is advised to take SlenderSip before a meal on a calorie-restricted diet, 3 times a day.

Exante Juiced -Juiced is a new product for Exante.  It comes in a tub that contains 10 servings.  It is the worlds first juicy meal replacement shake collection.  The flavour I am using is dark cherry which is made with real cherry juices this fruity shake is made with the revolutionary clear whey protein to create the ultimate juicy refresher!  Packed with 27 vitamins and minerals.  It is perfect for when you are craving that fruity fix.  Shake with 500 ml of cold water for the perfect juicy drink at only 202 calories.  Juiced also comes in Peach and Mango, Grapefruit, and Apple and Pear.

Exante Snack Shots -These are the perfect low-calorie taste sensation for busy lifestyles! Pick between Sweet Chilli & Honey, Dark Chocolate & Cranberry and Buffalo Chickpea & Pumpkin Mix. Each box is split into 12 individual packets making them the most convenient solution to healthy eating on the go.

I will go through all of the newer Exante products and flavours in the coming weeks; which there are a lot of.

Getting Ready

You have 12 days left to get yourself organised.  What I will be doing is going through my cupboards and taking out anything I will be tempted by and will give away to family.

Get your measuring tape out and the day before you start take all of your measurements including your weight.  This is so important as you have some weeks where you just lose inches and not pounds.  It also acts as a pick me up when you feel like giving it all in (which you will) just take a look at how far you have come.

Feel full longer

Not only do you need to take measurements you also need to take a photo, from the front, from the side and from the back.  I know this is going to be a really hard thing to do but I promise you that you will thank me for it in 12 weeks time.  At the end of 12 weeks if you would like to share your before and after photos with me for the blog please do.

Why not buy yourself a really nice large glass to have your shakes from, or your burst etc.  Make it a bit more special; it does help.  As does having sparkling water in a nice glass with a slice of lemon, spring of mint and ice etc.

Get yourself some things to take up your time at your worst times.  For me, it is at night time so I tend to paint, knit something, or draw.  I have done embroidery in the past, made bags, used adult colouring books.  Find something you will enjoy that will keep your fingers busy.  I will have other tips to share with you soon.

Do Something You Love

Most importantly buy your products as soon as possible because I can guarantee if you leave it another week all the best products will be gone as people will panic buy ready for New Year.  I have mine already now.  Create a space for you to keep them organised.   You can also use my money off code TRACEY35 which will let you have a 35% discount.

I have a lot going on right now and also a lot more to come so will be writing a lot more moving forward.  As usual, if you have any questions or if there is something you would like me to write about in the coming months please just message me and I will get back to you.  Hopefully, I will be posting Monday’s and Friday’s.

Exante 100 Days To Christmas Challenge

For Exante products please click here

Bring It On…

What a year we have all had.  Lockdown with double pneumonia and COVID, sadly my sister has just been diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer and I have a lump and have been referred to gynecology.  So this year hasn’t been the best.  Like many people also there has been a lot of comfort eating during the lockdown and with everything else.  With regards to my health the chances are I may have to have a full hysterectomy so I need to get myself as healthy as I can before that happens.  So the Exante 100 days to Christmas challenge couldn’t have happened at a better time.

Exante 100 days to Christmas challenge

So as it is 100 days to Christmas (can’t believe it) I have to make a commitment for the challenge.  For me, it is dropping a dress size (or even 2) and getting healthier in readiness for surgery.  I have managed to put back on all the weight I had got rid of previously but I know I’m not the only one struggling with this.

We have all been under so much stress and anxiety and as a result a lot of us have reverted back to old eating habits and comfort eating in general.  So…  Exante 100 days to Christmas challenge is just what I need.  Also with 100 days left of this horrendous year, this is enough time to make a huge big change to your health ready for what will hopefully be a better year in 2021.

My Exante Diet Plan

So I am going back to my Fast Fix days because I know it works.  It means I will be on 4 Exante products a day for at least 100 days.  Not only will I lose inches and lbs but I will get back to my happy place and feel a lot healthier.  I will be drinking plenty of water and also the Exante burst products.  I will share with you my Exante journey but also the hysterectomy and also my extremely brave sister’s journey with Breast Cancer and hopefully, that will help people in similar situations.

So why not join me and get ready for 2021 and feeling and being a lot healthier. You can make such a huge difference in 100 days; so come on and hop onboard.  You lucky things will also get to see a timelapse video at the end of my 100-day journey so you can watch me shrink before your eyes.

Also, remember you can claim 35% off of your shop with my code TRACEY35.  Please click here to be forwarded to the Exante website.

15 Questions For Coaching Yourself Through Weightloss

The Time Is Now

So life is different right now… no shit Sherlock!  Losing weight is never easy and some of you may be finding it even harder right now.  Weight loss is a constant battle for me but a big part of being successful is changing your mindset.  I hooked up yesterday with a group of Exante Ambassadors and together we are going to support each other to help you guys.  So this morning I have come up with 15 questions for coaching yourself through weight loss.

15 Questions For Coaching Yourself Through Weight Loss

10 Ways To Grow Your Own Happiness
Write Your Gratitude List Every Day

Below you will find the 15 questions for coaching yourself through weight loss.  I want you to read each one but not just glance at it but to get a pen and paper and write as much as you can and be as detailed as possible.  Read your answers several times and visualise your responses.

  1. Where do you most want to see a change in your life?
  2. When do you want to have achieved this by?
  3. If you achieved this what would it mean?
  4. What do you really want in an ideal world?
  5. How could you say your goal in just a few words? – words that make it exciting for you.
  6. How will you know when you have achieved it?
  7. What’s your gut telling you about this?
  8. Reflect on the times in your past when you’ve felt the most content.  What was happening?
  9. What does “success” mean to you?
  10. What do you need the most right now?
  11. What do you think is missing from your life?  Is there anything you yearn for?
  12. What are three things that would make the most difference in your life right now?
  13. What would your life look like if other people’s opinions wouldn’t matter?
  14. What would you do if you knew you couldn’t fail?
  15. What would you do if money was no object?

Other Areas Of Your Life

Getting ready for camera

Now you can use these questions for other areas of your life because as I said there is more to losing weight than just reducing calories.  You need to tackle it from every angle.  For me, I’m a comfort eater so finding it difficult through these scary times.  One coping mechanism for me is support from other people in the same situation.  I will be going through lots of coping mechanisms moving forward.  So please feel free to subscribe so that you can read the posts as they get published.

The Exante Meal Replacement Diet

Chocolate and Orange Bar

For me, the Exante diet meal replacement shakes and bars are the easiest to use out there.  You can just grab a bar and go.  Shakes are so easy too as you just need to fill a shaker beaker with 200-300ml of cold water (out of the fridge – it makes a difference!) and shake.  The reason I have used 2 measurements is that some people prefer thinner shakes.   When I started my Exante journey I would use 300ml as I didn’t like thicker shakes, but now I’m at 200-250 ml and it is perfect.  So experiment until you find the right consistency for yourself.

Exante Products

There are various flavours so please don’t be put off by trying one and not liking it so you then give up.  I hated it to start with but that was using tap water.  The next one I used cold water from the fridge and it tasted like a different product – it was delicious.  Don’t buy 100 of something unless you have tasted it first.  I now have my handful of favourites and I’m more than happy with those.

I’d suggest if you are new to Exante that you buy a couple of each flavour so you can find your favourites and do the same with the bars.  People’s tastes are so different so much so just because someone said that they love the peanut butter bar and its the bee’s knees; you might not think the same – I know I didn’t!

Another good thing to consider the products contain all of the vitamins and minerals that your body needs which to me is a plus considering the current pandemic.

Dieting During Lockdown

One of the great things about starting your diet now with Exante you won’t be queuing up at the supermarket.  Everything gets delivered straight to your door; it doesn’t get easier than that.  I will talk more about the different products moving forward.

You can also receive a whopping 35% discount by using my code TRACEY35.

Please feel free to send me questions or leave comments about anything.  So what do you have to lose apart from weight?  What do you have to gain?

Go through the questions again and answer honestly and get back into your own little zone and get your mojo back.

Love
