be careful as pepsi max has citric acid in it which you should avoid however coke zero has no citric acid it has malic acid which is why it wont knock you out of ketosis.. neither should be drank on a regular basis in high volumes but as a treat coke zero will do no damage

diet coke still has citric acid in which is a no no however coke zero has malic acid and that wont take you out of ketosis...diet coke might knock you out but im sure people have drank diet coke and been fine. i have one can of coke zero whenever i fancy

i thought that i may get bored so i plan to mix it up every now and then with the odd shake. i think i can manage that. haha!

really not loving the soups. i think for my next order i will just get the shakes only, the bars are fab for a quick lunch at work and the shakes are great for breakfast, dont think i will mind having them twice a day. and still only having a tiny bit of protein in the evening, ie chicken or a...

oh good God... I will let you know how I get on. Hopefully its not too bad and I can keep it up. I wanna learn how to do a front and back flip on it.. then next summer the next bbq I go to with a trampoline in the garden I will get on a show off my skills.. :happy096: they will be cheering...

Good Luck to you too... :grouphugg:we are all in it together

well here goes... Today is my first full day on LT. I don't know my start weight, just told the guy at the chemist to tell me my weight losses each week, i want to shock myself with my start weight at the end of my journey..well being a size 26 it's not going to be that shocking.. Im off...

well along with swimming twice a week and one aqua areobics class a week i am having trampoline lessons. my first one is next week... i thought something fun and different would help increase my weightloss... just not so keen on being the fatty bouncing in a room full of gymnasts, we all know...

i mix it with about 50ml of cold water in the blender i then pour it into a bowl and add about 250 of hot water from the kettle.. the thinner the better and the extra spice of the pepper makes it really nice.... 100%ers may not add anything but its working for me. i dont plan on being 100% with...

phew....

I sit down with my chicken soup and eat it with a teaspoon, by the time im finished im full and feel like i have eaten a "real" meal its the only thing that gets me through, now for the naughty bit...... my soup has white pepper in it! anyone else put stuff in the soup... i'm sure its this that...

yeah the amount is small enough not to notice on a day to day basis but over time it will build up to a decent amount, and i look at it as mony for a fancy coffee that i wont be having.

thats even better if you can also get someone to sponser you a £ for a lb might have to push that with the oh ;)

I plan on doing tfr 100% until 30th November, that is 250 days, so to help me along i have pledged £2 per day to my new clothes fund, the idea being that when i come to re-feed i will have £550 to splash on clothes. so im looking forward to a HUGE shopping spree... thats keeping me focused for now!

sorry title should read LT V's Exante

is the rate you lose weight the same on these two diets?

oh my God! just read you diary from start to finish over the past couple of days. Love it. Felt like i didnt want it to end, like a really good book, your sooo positive. I'm another one of your fans :wavey: just wanted to say HI Saff

well as added motivation i have signed up for a 10k run in may. has anyone else done any form of major exercise whilst on lt and how did they cope? im hoping i will be fine as i used to be a runner and last did this race in 07. im so worried about lose skin that i have decided to exercise and...

hey all... i have lost 10lb in weeks 2 and 3 no laptop so am struggling to update at the moment, cant wait for mine to be fixed

hi can you please put me don for a 15lb loss. thanks

hey i know that i can do it as i have lost 6st on this diet a few years back, and to be honest if i dont do it now i never will so i am ready, just gotta make it to weekend and then ketosis here i come.

shake it is then, cheers for the support x

can you carry on once you have eaten something?

gonna have to start again tomorrow, woke up this morning to be snowed in no work for me and my daughters nursery closed so we shared jam sadwiches whilst watching the snow, however i now wish i had stuck to my shakes as although it was fun i feel soooo guilty, gonna split my shakes into 6...

hey re-start on the 4th please put me down for 28lbs loss for jan xx:eek:

i was gonna go break for two weeks but i am still undecided.... it just looks easier in my head if i say its only for 7 weeks and then i can stop for a break if i want... if i do break i wontg be going crazy on chocolates and carbs and i also wont be drinking so hopefully i will just carry on...

well after a none start last summer enough is well and truly enough.. I am heavier than i have ever been i am disgusted when i see what I have done to myself.. Tomorrow is the start of the rest of my life... summergurl your pics are amazing and I look to you for my LT inspiration.... I cant...

count me in i am gonna aim big... gonna go for 60lbs :D

before i was pregnant i ran the bupa manchester run... after i had lost 7 st its 3 months away so i have put my name down again. something else to push me i guess.

yeah i think i will try splitting them.. having a shake 6 times and all the water i would think there wouldn't be much time for food

oh yeah i am now over 20st too fat for clothes!

I have piled on so much weight i am heavier than ever. I really want to get stuck into lt but for some reason i keep failing on the second day! im so sick of being fat i really am :(

im in. I would like to lose 2st by then, am re-starting on the 2nd jan...

well here goes... the start again. had an op on my tummy so nothing stopping me but willpower. how long bfore i stop feeling hungry.. i realy want to succeed and look good for christmas and my daughters first birthday, surley 12 weeks is long enough to see some drastic changes..? well gonna take...

thats fantastic

hi all re-starting lt once i have recovered from my op, will probably be monday, am a little confused though went to pick up my shakes from the chemist and they told me that i can't put pepper or anything into the chicken soup, has anyone else been told that?

thanks for answering that.. i wanted to ask but was to shy! hehe!

hey a loss is a loss, well done

Good Luck, all I can say is stick with it, no matter how bad you want food once you get your first weigh in you will feel amazing!

but i can't update my ticker i cant remeber the pin..

Had my first weigh in today, had it on day four as I will not be getting weighed till thursday as I wanted to change my weigh in day, I was amazed to see that after only 4 days I have still lost 9lbs yes 9lbs. I was so shocked.. I can't wait to have my next weigh in 10 days time, then after...

hey, in the first few days i peed a lot but its not so bad now.. but I already drank about two litres of water a day.. I think your body gets used to it after a while but you will still go more than before this diet. how you getting coping?

Before I started lipotrim I joined weightwatchers at the end of June. I set up a dd but forgot to cancel so I now feel like I should go for the weigh-ins until it runs out at the end of August... do I lie when they tell me how much weight I have lost or do I come clean about LT.. I feel like...

I must admit though I was in mothercare yesterday and I have seen a fab bike type thing for my baby and I think I will get it soon and put it away.. I'm more of a panic shopper I convince myself if I don't get it now it will sell out and no matter what it is the thought of not having it drives...

oh my God I am loving Day 4 I have lost my double chin already, and I feel fab. I had a sneaky peak on the scales and oh my god I am already in the 16's by quiet a bit... I can't wait to get my official weigh in on Wednesday. minimins has been so helpful because I am excited not only about...

i can't believe there is a christamas thread in AUGUST!!!!! Christmas comes earlier every year!

well done. thats a great weightloss, and will keep you goin next week too

good morning everyone

good luck for tomorrow!

Hey a barium meal is a x-ray test where you drink a liquid that contains some barium sulphate can be used to obtain pictures of your upper gut - the gullet (oesophagus), stomach and small intestine.

im just goin to resist the thought of my first weigh in should keep me goin.. i have had one before and just drank water after it so hopefully i will be fine.. tut!

Hey I need to have a Barium Meal on monday, does anyone know if the stuff you have to swallow will have any impact on me being in ketosis?

Well Ihave made it through day 3, still one shake to go. On the first two days I was desperate for my shakes but I must admit I have not been that bothered today. Don't feel hungry but if I'm out and I smell food I think about it then and it seems to smell nicer. But then the feeling passes...

hey i think you should be truthful and sugest goin to the cineam instead.. and if he is both hot and nice you will both get the benefits of the new you. You are on this diet to lose weight for yourself and to feel good I know it's hard but please don't give in.

Hi what does rep power under everyones name mean?

amazing!

its not good at all, I guess it's like in any job there are always those who will do as little as possible to help, I'm sure there must have been something that could have been done, Seriously I would complain.

cheers everyone you have really helped me today.... will face tomorrow when it comes... one day at a time i think it will be

well done

I have a lot of weight to lose so I have been thinking about saggy skin. Obviously I want to lose weight for health reasons but I would be lying if I said that vanity did not play a big part. In order to minimise the lose skin I have come up with a plan. Only time will tell if it works. I now...

ahh forgot to mention it was Vanilla

just made up my final shake of the day.. i put 7 ice cubes in a blender added a small amount of water and then put in a spoon and a half of coffee and 1 sweetner. topped it up with more water and blended... It was GORGEOUS I know think it will see me through the night. thank god. bring on tomorrow

I know if I cave in I will hate myself... I don't know whats wrong with me I am obsessed with the thought of a chinese!!!!

ARHHHH... I don't think I can do this...

gi jane watch out.. its great when you really get into exercise. this time last year i was very fit and went 5 days a week i also ran the manchester run. exercise is addictive just wait and see

cheers cuddlyfairy. I have to be upbeat the only other option is down and i have finally managed to look at the positives and weightloss is the next step

my fave is the vanilla with coffee blended with lots of ice, I think it tastes so good it almost feels like I am cheating.
