    Day 4 - struggling today :-(

    Well I've not caved and I've got a night on my own... Sadly, totally missed lunch-which I believe can be as bad as cheating! I'm not 'hungry' but guess that's the problem I've always had-eat cos I want to, not because I'm hungry. Just need to feel a loss to keep me going-can't remember when I...

    What is most effective?

    I had a flapjack every day for my lunch last time round and lost 12lb first week, 6lb second week and 3 lb third week-so if it had any impact I didn't see it!!

    Ketostix

    Hi Hun I've used them in past and as ling as you're on the 2nd block of colour you're in Ketosis-if you're at the darkest end you're prob too dehydrated. So be careful x

I'd love to think I could do 7 weeks solid but I have a party at the end of Nov and a weekend in London mid Dec-so know I can't stay TRF for those-although thinking of sticking over party-5 weeks should be St and half I'd hope! That'd inspire me a...

    Here i go again....

    Day 1 of LT today. Sadly, not my first attempt-tried it initially 2008 where I dropped 1.5st before IVF. Kept it off after the birth-god knows how!! After the baby I came back and lost 55lbs-and was ALMOST where I wanted to be. Then...I piled it ALL back on :-( Recent split from hubby has...

    Missed shake!!?! Oops!!

    I am guilty of this quite often - not because I do it intentionally, just get home from work and keep so busy I forget. I have found on the weeks where I have done this my losses haven't been as great - although I have still lost. My pharmacist has chastised me for it and I understand that...

    Looking worse!

    I have spates of feeling like that too! I know I'm loosing, so MUST look better but keep looking in the mirror and thinking I look worse and feeling really down about it. Because we lose so quickly it's so hard for us to adjust mentally - sometimes I think we'd really benefit from some sort...

    Breastfeeding and lipotrim

    I called spoke to my pharmacist and they called LT whilst I was there, as I was BF when I first thought about returning to LT. They said under no circumstances should I do both - and it was unlikely, due to the fact LT is a VLCD, that I would even produce sufficient/decent milk. The official...

    2nd WI

    Very well done and certainly don't be down but DO be prepared - 4lb a week is average!! That is what you should expect each week going forward and as someone said, 4 lbs a week is over a st a month - try doing that on WW!!

    How do you prefer to prepare your shakes? (TFR)

    I use ice and cold water blended in shakes. Cold choc or vanilla with iced coffee shakes. Hot or cold mint tea with the chocolate. Half vanilla shake and half flapjack, mixed with hot water, to make porridge. Mousse, made with ice cold water and put in the freezer for 2 mins - eat...

    Fizzy Water not allowed as part of daily 4 pint quota O.O

    OMG, I've switched to mostly fizzy this week and, I admit I have cheated too, but only lost 1lb this wk. The pharmacist asked about water today and I mentioned I was drinking fizzy - all she said was is it can bloat you?! Wonder if that's had any impact on me feeling hungrier this week then?!

    Hi hun. No-one will say this diet is 'easy to stick to' but you will have the best results you've ever seen. You need to be mentally prepared to do this, as with any other diet you can 'cheat' and make up for it later, with LT you need to stick to it 100%. Just decide what's more important...

    Thinking of re-starting!

    Hey Deflating, I'm also starting my 2nd stint today. Only half way through the first day but surviving. I'm a 'grazer' - like splitting everything up, so get plenty of shakes/flapjacks through the day. Is it wrong I actually like the peanut flapjacks?? Just sat down with half and a cup of...

    Returning Newbie...

    Hi all Today is the first day of my return to LT. I did (only)3 weeks on LT last year, whilst starting IVF and had a succesful treatment - so now am back to lose baby weight and all those many 100lbs I needed to lose from before that too!! I actually had some packs left from last time, so...

    For those of you that remember me...

    For those of you that remember me, I had to stop LT as I was starting IVF and I promised to come back and let you know how I got on... I got my positive test result today - I am pregnant!! Shame you can't do LT and the same time, as now I've found it, I'd like to have lost all those extra...

    ok have to ask everyone what made you think of your user name

    I'd love to tell you...but then I'd have to kill you!

    Giving up dudes!!

    Thank you all so much!! Lost 3lb this week. Not much and I have to say, didn't expect it as been sick this week, 'due' any minute and my drugs make you put on weight too...everythings against me!! That takes me to 1 and a half stone off in the past 3 weeks - a good start to my baby journey...
  215. T

    Giving up dudes!!

    Unfortunately, after all the discussions thinking that LT would be ok with IVF treatment, I've now been told it's not advisable and told I should've really stopped a month before my treatment started [bit hard as I've only just discovered the wonder that is LT]! Thinking I better call it a day...

    does anyone check urine ketones

    Me too!! Almost everyday - it keeps me motivated knowing I AM in ketosis and then seeing the weight drop. Got mine from boots - but as someone else said, if I test in the afternoon I'm always negative, I only trust the early morning wee's!!:o
  218. T

    Cramps

    Can't help on the tonic front but I can sympathise and say I suffered terribly in the first week too. It was awful. Every evening and during the night. Then it stopped?! Don't want to tempt fate too much but I've not had any since week 1 and boy, is it a relief!! So, hopefully, it will...
  219. T

    i'll ask too :)

    I too don't drop sizes on stones, normally 2st is a size for me - gutting, I'd love to drop at that rate!! I'm 5ft 8 and at size 16 I was slim!! Going to take me a long time to get back there!! x
  220. T

    I know it's only day 4, but I thought I'd feel thinner...

    One thing I did - as I was totally the same week 1 - was went to the chemist and bought some Ketostix [sticks you just wee on and they tell you if you're in Ketosis] then at least you know you're burning fat!! I stick to LT but I often test in the morning, just to reassure myself x Boots stock...

    Day3 is nearly over. I'm desperate for food.

    This won't help you, as I found it equally hard and it doesn't matter how many times you hear it!! It DOES get easier!! I'm 2 and a half weeks in and now, it's not too bad but previously - wow - weekends I could've eaten my arm off!! Mon - Fri I am fine but Fri night to Sunday, I want food -...

    Wow - that's so impressive! I have MY leaving do next weekend and really not sure what to do - I'd like to eat something [think we're going to Nando's] and then to a comedy club. Can cope with water all night but I suppose it's irrelevant if I'm eating naughty chicken anyway!!

    Just started

    Wwll done for getting going - that's the hardest and good on you for getting your weight right out there. I'm too ashamed of mine to put it up - just the weight loss'll do me x It's tough but you really do see results VERY quickly. I'm mid week 3 and reckon I'm down 1 size and, as has been...

    Revelations on LT

    Oh, absolutely! I eat for boredom, sadness, happiness - I LIKE food and enjoy eating and I use it socially...or did!! I drive past certain shops and think about the nice food in there, it's like each shop has 1 favorite and when I pass, I want to eat it regardless of whether I'm hungry. I'm...

    Chicken Soup.....

    I'm lucky, I've been able to palette all of them. Vanilla - I only use in the mornings, split over 2 cups of freshly brewed coffee. Very latte like. Soup - again, I don't mind without anything but I did like a little S&P and also tried chilli powder the other night...but used a bit too much...

    Started Treatment Today...

    No, something lovely, hopefully. It's IVF. Talk about poor timing though - wish I'd found LT way earlier!! It's unlikely I'll be able to carry on through my treatment and certainly, if it works, I believe I have to stop :confused:. Strange, much as I'd like an excuse to eat, I also like...

    Started Treatment Today...

    Well, started my treatment this evening!! After a pathetic stab of the needle, I eventually managed to inject myself - feeling very proud :o Only thing is, I'm feeling all sorry for myself and just want to curl up and watch crap tv and eat!! :mad: I know that's why I need to be doing LT now...

    Whats your shake routine?

    Half vanilla and lots of freshly ground coffee, hot, at 7am and then another just before I leave for work - depending what shift I'm on. If I'm on soup[normally a late shift] - Chicken Soup, half pack [like a cup-a-soup] about 1/2pm and then another at 6/7pm Tried the flapjack yesterday and...

    Grumbling stomach

    I drink over 4l of water a day, on top of my shakes and coffee etc and my stomach is constantly trying to communicate with everyone!! I certainly don't feel hungry most of the time and often it happens whilst I'm drinking the shakes!! Think it's normal...at least I hope it is x
