It's not fat! It can't be fat! You are absolutely fine! 3500 calories equals one pound, so unless you ate 14,000 calories more than you burnt off in two days, it will not be stored fat. Weight fluctuates throughout the day, due to fluid etc; you could be retaining more fluid due to the high...

I LOVE this one, from the public part of the SW website: Barley and butternut squash hot pot - Recipes - Slimming World It is free on EE and green. LOVE it.

:innocent0002: Whoops- didn't mean to lead you astray! :D :party0048: Enjoy the party though!

:talk017::talk017::talk017: Well done! I hope I can be like you in ten weeks or so! Enjoy your girly night out- bet you pull.

:banghead::banghead::banghead: That sounds very frustrating- I know opinion differs on these diets, but that is a whole lot of drama for someone who is trying to improve their health! At least your GP cares I guess! For me it was weighing up the options- the potential effects on your...

Aw, thanks cuddly fairy!

dawniegee, I think if you are in doubt see your GP, they know what they are doing. If they give you the go ahead, go for it! It is a great diet.

Does anyone have all four flavours? Or do you choose which ones you like? Good luck zest! It gets easier!

Slap your pharmacist upside the head next time you go- they should have sorted that out in the week that they had. Good luck though!!!

:party0038::party0038::party0038::party0038::party0038::party0038: Well done! We have similar stats- we can do it!

newlifenow- the makers of Lipotrim say it should come off at the rate of 1 stone per month, therefore it should take around 3 months. As Guenevere says, it gets slower as you get closer to target, so you may lose it quicker at first, and the last few pounds might be harder to shift. I am sure...

If it is a "best before" date rather than a "sell by" date, you should be fine. The former has more leeway than the latter.

I am a good cook and I have determination and am working on developing a will of steel, so damn it, I SHALL cook. And I SHALL NOT taste. Thanks everyone!

I would love a drink now you mention it... :party0036::party0036::party0036: What's that? Diet? Damn! Nevermind, when I have a BMI of 25 I will get drunk so much cheaper (and with less calories!)

Thanks nictastic. I shall squat and crunch away.

Remember as well that protein has a structural role AND a role as an energy source. If you eat protein, it is digested and broken down to its building blocks (amino acids), which are then taken up by cells to make new proteins and other molecules. HOWEVER, if more amino acids are present than...

Sorry, this is the second thread I have started today but I really want to ask; does anyone else here have to be near food even on LT? Someone mentioned on another thread they cook for their kids. I cook for my parents about 3 times a week, and I find it really hard not to taste the food. Also I...

Wow! this thread is full of lovely tips for me! I went for a 30 minute walk today, going to try to start a walking program, like Cathy (slowly at first- that will increase the chances of me sticking to it!). Gene Genie- I love your TV suggestion, its like a heathly drinking game! Maybe I will...

:party0019::happy096::party0019: Go ketosis, go ketosis. Now you have a really big reason not to break the diet- don't eat ANYTHING, else you will have to go through that again.

Thanks remy and cuddly! I may track some of those down. 16 weeks!!! You are doing great. :party0049::worthy: I am determined to stick to it that long!!! Thanks for the link remy!:D

How do you check ketones? My pharmacist has never checked mine, I just get weighed in.

I am the same: I don't have scales at home. Thinking about the weight loss only once a week helps me focus on the big picture.

:welcome:

:tear_drop::tear_drop::tear_drop:Cuddly Fairy, I am the same. I hate the tap water we get here unless it is chilled and constantly buying mineral water would be bad for the environment (and my bank balance!), so I have a constant rotation of about 6 bottles of various sizes...

;) Hello there everyone. I am on my fifth week (weigh in Tuesdays), and I was wondering: what, if any, exercise do you guys do with LT? None of the literature I have read has recommended an exercise program, and although I have lost a lot of weight without it, most GPs recommend good diet AND...

Thanks Rainbow! At least there is this forum with people who know what it is all about. I weighed up the pros and cons carefully, but in the end it was a no brainer. For example, if you lose a lot of weight quickly you are risking gallstones, but if your BMI is over 40, like mine, you are at a...

I have had some comments about my skin looking nice. (LT: the ultimate detox diet). Maybe I will not go back to drinking diet coke and too much wine when I finish. The worst thing was when I was discussing LT on another website (a sort of feminist one) and I got a load of comments saying...

We could start a regular poo update thread. (Poop-date?)

Hello, Rainbow Brite, Thank you!

Things that help: 1. Water, lots. 2. Teethbrushing, much. 3. Mouthwash, gallons. 4. Friends, honest.

Sorry if this is a double post, but my posts aren't coming up.:( Basically- ketosis produces ketone bodies, which are broken down to acetone, which are excreted in the breath (and urine). Equals yukky mouth.:eek:

Hello Woman With A Mission, congrats on getting married! I have been on LT for 4 weeks now, I have not felt down, but obviously it is different for everyone. Maybe you could try it and if you feel too bad you could stop? (with proper refeeding of course). I think it is quite rare. Has anyone...

Hi Guen, Thanks so much for your reply. I am feeling really positive right now and looking forward to my weigh in tomorrow. I am graduating in October and want wear something nice so I have a incentive when things do get tough. Well done for sticking to it in a difficult situation and I hope...

Hello! This is my first time on the forum - it is really nice to see other people out there doing lipotrim as well. I have done two weeks so far and lost 16lbs, which I am happy about, but since my weigh in on Tuesday I have been having problems carrying on. I have just finished uni and am...
