Hiya- I have about 6 stone to lose which will take me from 13.11 to about 7.11/12 which is about right for my height (5ft 1) although I would be happy with anything fom that to 8.12. I couldnt believe it when I was coming up as level 2 obese in the bmi charts etc but hey ho!

Its my 3rd day on lipotrim and it been ok apart from big headaches and hunger in betwen, plus being freezing cold!

6st to lose and and counting... xxx

Hiya I will join you I have got 6 to 7 stone to lose as well I have a target i would like to settlefor but dont think i will get there it would be nice as my health is suffering now with all this weight would love to feel lighter and not carrying it around with me.

Hi Bethany,

I found such an amazing difference that the first 2 stone off made to me and there after as I could do more and more.

Stick with it and you too will be finding things so much easier.

I had so many things I wanted to change and I have, simple things like getting in and out of the bath with ease to cutting my toe nail and not feeling I was going to burst a blood vessel.

Running up and down the stairs is something I now do automatically and I can walk without getting out of breath whereas before getting up to answer the phone sounded to the person on the other end that I just had run a mile

The body is very forgiving and the improvements come quick...

Keep a diary and track daily how your feeling and within about four months you will have traveled such a distance from where you are now.

Love Mini xxx

Hiya Mini My weight is getting me down now i have to do something same as you say going upstairs gets me out of breath and can feel my chest tighten i seem to be getting different ailments now never did before . I sometimes go to work on my bike it only takes 10 mins to get there and back home again and by the time i get there im out of breath and it is all getting me down.

I have at least 6 stone to lose. To have a healthy BMI I need to lose 8 stone 3. Looks a lot when you write it down but I won't be disheartened. As some of you know, I have two beautiful reasons not to give up

Well Bethany, your here now and doing something about it and in a few weeks time you will begin to feel so much fitter if not before.

I have a lovely mountain bike that is like brand new...still not that fit now to take it out on the road. So in the mean time I am on an exercise bike in the sitting room and I feel I am getting fitter.

Also working away with a thigh exerciser, it is good fun

And out walking when it is not too cold.

Gillian McKeith would be proud of you for using your bike

Love Mini xxx

Hi Anna,

I started off wanting to lose almost ten stone and I think I was being unrealistic aiming for that.

Now I would settle for nine stone eventually as this would give me a BMI of 21.6

I have to break the weight up in smaller mini goals as I found looking at it as one big block was too overwhelming and just thinking about it in a way still is.

My goal now is to get down to ten stones by the end of April Time is flying...

Love Mini xxx

Hi Mini I also have a exercise bike but dont use it as i feel i will get out of breath and i need to lose weight from my thighs stomach and bottom will the bike do these areas.
If you dont mind me asking what is your thigh exerciser i could do with one

Mini

Hi Bethany,

I don't over do it by any means about five minutes at a go...I was reading that little and often is more beneficial That's what I am telling myself

The 'Thigh Toner' is said to tone the inner thighs, outer thighs and buttocks...will let you know if it works.

I have mine just a week now and I love it as it is very easy to use and I am using it for my chest as well as upper arms.

Here is a link and you can see what it looks like...should of had one years ago.

Buy Thigh Toner from Woolworths.co.uk online shop

I have light weights as well, but have not got back into them as yet working towards it and have the pilate's bands as well

http://www.gaiamdirect.co.uk/content...ID=7566&rCat=1

Now to use them...

I have taken down all my measurements so we will see if they work, if they do it will be a lot cheaper than surgery

I am big into self-massage and hot stone massage if and when I can afford it.

Love Mini xxx

Thanks ever so much Mini for giving me the link for thigh trimmer i have had a look at it and it looks funny how do you use it i might think of getting one how many minutes a day do you do is it hard work

Mini

Hi Bethany,

I sit and use it watching television or when I am sitting here at my computer.

I have worked up to about 30 minutes through out the day...

It is easy to use...I don't do the arm one like the way the girl in this link does it.

I just squeeze it in and hold it by the ends... for the chest and upper arms.

I do the sitting position with it between my knees or flat on my back and it between my knees.

As I get better at it I will get more adventurous...zoom in on the pictures and you will see some of what you can do!
