I really need to sort myself out -am finiding it so hard to stick to. Some of you may know I lost 3st 9lbs back in September taking me from 14st 6lbs to an amazing 10st 11lbs, I felt fab. I looked great, was get compliments left, right and centre and now i've gone an ruined it. I did managment...

I am so glad I realised before i'd gained on 4 stone - at least it was just the one! Am cracking on and am hoping to go back onto RtM in roughly 4 - 6 weeks. NO lapses this time, cannot believe i'm so silly as to have gone back to my stupid old eating habits. Am so disapointed it's unreal but am...

Feel awful, started RtM roughly a month ago or there abouts. First week - lost 3 lbs, got myself down to 10st 11 but ever since that weigh in I have fallen completely off track and have since gained roughly a stone in a stupidy short period of time. Am now bordering on 12 stone and am not happy...

Is it possible to fasten RtM up? As in merge weeks 1-2, 3-4 etc. Maybe not the final few weeks when we introduce bread and cereals etc but for the first say 8 weeks? I'm feeling drained and really want to get some good old fruit and veg in me! I really am struggling at the moment and am not...

Hiya, I joined the RtM family today!! But am already having issues lol. Not major ones though, how big is a protein portion? I want to have prawns this evening (the pre-peeled, shelled etc) but am unsure how many to have! Any ideas? Also all I can have is prawns right (or anthing from the...

So, is RtM just building us back up to 2000 cal (I think that's right) per day? So for arguments sake, when I'm all finished my 12 weeks of RtM I can eat what I want aslong as I'm eating 2000 cals, 20g fat (not sure if these figures are right - if you know them then that would be fab to know...

Last day on foundation (have finished 4 weeks early) ! I am soooo excited about RtM! Have lost 3stone 4lbs so far and tomorrow will be my last weigh in before I get..FOOD! The weird thing is though, because I know I am now nearing the end, I have been eating all my packs close together and have...

Just a quick one, is chewing gum re-added as soon as you start Rtm?

In the last week and abit I have started going to afew gym classes but they are all mainly tone based for arms, legs and tums. And when I go to the gym I do weights for arms and a tiny bit of cardio as am not having alot of calories so don't want to end up hurting myself. With the water...

Don't really have one lol. Just stuck to it 100%. I only have shakes and bars too - 1 bar a day and 3 shakes and am a huge fan of the chocolate shakes! Yum! I am going to miss them and the raspberry and cranberry bars!

I lost 5lbs this week which is now a total of 3stone 4lbs in 9 weeks and now have a healthy BMI of 24.5! And I am also 10lbs off of my target of 10stone 6lbs and my LL counsellor thinks I should be finished in 3 weeks! How exciting! I cannot believe how amazingly LL has worked for me and how...

I am 1st 5lbs away from my goal now (goal of 10st 6lbs) - I am so excited..my target is creeping up on me!! :D

Went in for a weigh in today (officially weighed tomorrow) and i've lost 4lbs this week!! I am now 11st 11lbs! Cannot believe it, I am soooo happy!!! Also this week, managed to get my (shrinking) big bum into a pair of size 12 jeans!! I LOVE it!!! :D

I went out last night (on the soda water of course) and have never had so many compliments in my life!! I feel amazing!! I can honestly say I had one of the nicest nights out and no alcohol was involved which also meant no hangover this morning! And it made me feel great to get these compliments...

Yay!! I lost 3lbs this week! That's 2st 5lbs down!! :D

Ooops, read properly and now know!

Omg, that would be awesome! I love Cleveland!! Ooh, and Peter. Infact, it's just a great show!! It's been like cancelled in the US a few times though hasn't it!?

When I started LL I was told about the fact your breath can honk abit and that you cannot have chewing gum etc. But can have mouthwash and mouth spray. I use mouth spray but am still consious that my breath is bad and don't know what to do! I get embaressed at work and don't really like looking...

LOVE Family Guy!! Herbert is deffo a fave! Haha, he's sooo creepy!

Good luck!! I stated LL 5 weeks ago and have lost 2st 2lbs so far!! It's great! The first few days will be the hardest - I had a killer headache but it soon went when I stepped on those scales and saw I had dropped 13lbs!! I've got roughly 1st 12lbs to lose now - so 4st in total, the time has...

The smallest I can remember being was roughtly this time last year and that was 12st. So i'm 4lbs off that at the moment..I was a size 14 on bottom and a 10ish but mainly 12 on top. So I have no idea what I will look like at 10st 6lbs (my new target for now!!) but ideally I want to be a size 10...

I'm not sure what to actually make my target! At the moment it's 10st 7lbs which would be a total weight loss of 3st 13lbs so i'm thinking to just move it to 10st 6lbs so I lose 4st in total!! But now i'm unsure if I don't keep on creeping it down..so maybe making my target 10st or 9st 13lbs...

Thanks - I think I'm gunna do the drink a pint of water before I can have my shake as I don't feel I'm drinking as much as I should be!! Ooops! I'm gunna give that a go tomorrow night :) Cheers guys!

and be Friday so I can get weighed!! I also need some advice.. I usually have a shake about 7.30am then at about 12 noon then when I get in from work I have a bar at about 6ish and literally straight after I have my last shake. I think it's due to bordem but right now I wish I'd saved it...

Love it - that way people will sponsor me to stop singing!! Haha. Oooh, the bungee is abit scary for me!!

Oooh, and Olivia!

Hiya. I love the name Poppy for a little girl and Lily. And I love George for a boy. I like traditional names. Ooh, I also like Emily for a little girl and Grace. Hmm..Oliver's nice for a boy too. :)

I really want to do a sponsered something for charity..i just can't think what that something can be. I want something original but not really done alot like sponsered silences etc. And obviously, something lots of fun!! Anyone got any ideas? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!! :)

I'm so glad that some people have been inspired by my post! It's so nice! Good luck to you all!! x

Okay, I have quite a while to go yet as I only had my week 5 weight in end of last week but I am sooo looking forward to eating healthy food and having control over what I'm putting in my mouth and actually being able to have something savoury again (as I only have shakes and bars)! A few...

Silly question maybe but in week 12 when you add naughty foods back in, is that when you can add alcohol back in too?

Go for it, all you really have to remember is that it's not forever. You might miss a few nights out or parties but there are always going to be others in the future. That's how I look at it and that's what has kept be going..looking to the future and how great i'm gunna feel on the beach in my...

Thanks Debz :) xx

I'm not sure if I did that little ticker thing right, I'm not good with kg..i've lost 2st2lbs which i'm hoping is near what the ticker says lol. And I've lost that in 5 weeks. It's going soo good, I'm really loving it. It's so easy not having to think about what to eat. What diet are you doing?

Oooh, I've got a little ticker now. Feel like part of the group already ;)

Yeah definetly Wendi :) Thanks Bev and good luck to both of you :)

My goal at the moment is 10stone7lbs, started at 14stone6lbs and am not 12stone4lbs so that's 1stone11lbs to go! Want to have that off by 17th of October which is the end of my 14 weeks on Lighter Life, so that's 2lbs a week to shift! Fingers crossed hey..

Hi, i'm also new to this site but have been doing Lighter Life for 5 weeks now and have lost 2stone2lbs - so all is going good :) This is probably a silly question but when I try and add a signature it won't let me add more than 300 characters or something? How do I make this more as I have...

Thanks :) I love this diet, it's really working as I can now actually see in myself. I brought some size 14 trousers about 2 weeks ago and they are already getting loose! I love it!! And people have now started to comment too :) You have all done so well, it's great to be able to talk to other...

Hi Guys, I'm new here but wanted to share my story for people looking to start their Lighter Life journey and are unsure whether to go for it or not! So, I started Lighter Life 13th July this year at 14st6lbs and a BMI of 31.5! I was huge! I'm 18 and 5'7 and just felt like a massive balloon! So...
