5ft 4 (which made me gain a BMI point at my first visit, always thought I was 5 5!!) 12st 3 (thanks to LT!) I'm a size 16 Small frame

yea I'm a mouthwashaholic.

I can't update my losses, have to change the ticker and make a new one every time! It says my pin i wrong but it cant be

Yep, I get it. Like coppery? I can't really smell my own breath, but have been informed bluntly by my boyfriend that thats what it smells like.

Chin up, you've done so fantastically already. I'm such a newbie but still know that this is the place you should worry about whinging least. Bubble baths are great and do you like to read? I've found it really helps to get stuck into a book (I've finished two and I'm only just finishing my...

Well done!!!! Thats an amazing loss and a fantasticly positive attitude. Perfect combo!

I'm thinking exactly the same.

Totally agree with all of you. I've seen the advert and that was my first thought too. Very true that the problem with WW is it doesn't change your habits. I lost a stone and half on weight watchers when I was far too young and clueless by basically starving myself and pretending I was using...

Thats fantastic, already over a stone!! xx

Haha I might be a complete loser but I love Davina McCall's fitness DVDs! The programmes put together with her personal trainers who are also in the video so its not just another cheesy celebrity dvd. Anyway, she does boxercise in one and a similar one in another and my arms got really toned...

Well done!!

Thanks guys, fingers crossed.

People have been asking me, has it got easier? Yes, I think it has. The only difficulty is now I'm almost finished week 2 I'm just discovering the new challenges that aren't everyday ones. This weekend I had two! I'm low on cash and so when the shop I used to work in called and asked if I...

Thanks everyone, good luck with all your weigh-ins!

Chase it with water, day 4 was horrible for me too, I've just had my first weigh in and am so glad I persevered. I took a tip from here and filled a glass with ice so the shake got really cold, I could barely taste it, and after every guld I took a drink of water. Good luck, it'll all be worth it!

You've been on holiday??? Thats AMAZING! And super inspiring.

Good luck for starting again!

8lb! Im so excited, it really does motivate you for the next week and now I feel like I'm counting the days. I know most of it was water weight but if I manage 4lbs this week I'll be over the moon. Thanks for all your support, I couldn't have managed the first few days without it.

4) Apparently I was talking about chicken in my sleep last night. 28) I'm there now! :(:rolleyes:

/\ Thats the entire reason I've chosen LT. It's so alien, you can't make any excuses. It's (hopefully) so alien, you're not likely to make it a quick fix habit. It's so alien, hopefully it will work!

I had an awful day yesterday, for some reason I thought it wouldn't be a problem for the boyo to go the farmer's market and indulge himself as he does on the one day he gets off when he has to work a 13 day fortnight. I'm not even gonna go into the food he cooked (all our favourites) and there...

Thanks RB! Just since thursday, but I've been visiting or calling the pharmacist for 3 weeks but he kept going on holiday or somehing else. Pretty relieved to have finally started.

I can't answer your question but have been wondering about everyone's plan as I'm doing something no one else seems to be doing and am a little worried my pharmacist doesn't think I'm taking this seriously. We've worked out that I'll do a month TFR and then a week of 1 shake and 2 very low...

Yea, I ticked no and he didn't really say anything. I think hes a bit of a nuttball to be honest. I asked him if it was ok to swim because I swim quite hard and he asked if I'd swam in the olympics.

I didnt get shown the dvd?

Brewing a big pot of mint tea instead of the burgers my boyos making himself. Not sure who I want to win, loved Lisa thought she was hilarious. I'll have a fit if darnell wins.

Maybe the colder weather's put your body into hoarde mode? Not wanting to eat the stores?

They're the last thing I don't feel ready to tackle. I'm gonna have a go when I'm further along the road, maybe on the last stone.

Haha not whilst we're on lipotrim.

Thanks guys for all your support, finished the day well with your good wishes. Didn't get to eat until later than I wanted so was ravenous, but the chicken soup was actually quite nice! Possibly the first time for 10 years I've not put salt on anything for a whole day. The only odd thing was I...

Good luck, well done for getting back on the horse!

Thanks guys! My pharmacist didnt have a shaker because he says you can get them cheaper in tesco but my local didn't have one. I'm sure I'll find something! Haha I've been searching the forum for chicken soup to get as many ideas as possible to keep myself interested, I'm gonna do one...

Not as bad as I thought! Got home from work last night the boyo had had a day off and finished cleaning the flat for me(I'd started milatantly with a Clean Body Clean Mind Clean Flat philosophy) which was lovely. Had a glass of wine and Spag Bol in a last supper kind of way (as I'll never be...

Thanks for the advice! Its a little too late for yesterday and this morn (marmite on toast, my greatest vice!) but I'll bear that in mind for the rest of today and tommorow.

I'm off to tescos after work today and have been searching the forum for ways to spice up the shakes and soup. So far I've: Mouthwash, sweetner tablets, peppermint tea and garam masala on my shopping list; but I've got a few questions still! I'm very worried about my hair, is it OK to take...

This is what I'm most scared of! Are we allowed to take supplements?

The worst (and ironic) thing is I've actually managed to put on weight waiting. Thats just me being silly though. But thank you guys! Theres so many excuses I could give myself but it really helps to have this forum, it means I won't let myself. :thankyou:

New low for me, losing the will before even starting the diet! I've been trying to get the order for almost 2 weeks now! First of all my pharmacist went on holiday and the other employees had no record of me so couldn't order me any, now I'm working late hours and have to wait till wednesday to...

Mikey, have you read the montignac method? It didn't work for me as I wasn't in the right frame of mind, its quite (I think wrongly) critical of low calorie diets and if you're looking for one, that can be a great excuse to overeat. But in terms of glycemia its got a lot of science and glycemic...

Haha, I feel like breaking into the chorus of I'm Every Woman. Thanks for being so welcoming everyone, off to the pharmacy today, taking people's advice about starting Lipotrim when you can be lame for the next two days. xx

I hope no one minds me putting my two pence in seeing as I'm so new, but I have to strongly agree about using all your points! I'm constantly trying to make up for all the 'bad' dieting I did when I was younger, which included limiting myself to under 10 points a day so I could use the rest on...

Hi, I'm really almost on the way to the pharmacy to sign up but I just need some real, very honest advice from all you experts on whether this is the way to go for me. I'm only worried as quite a few of the "horror" side affects are things I suffer easily. I have quite thin hair that gets even...

I get that feeling too! Good luck xx

Ok, here goes! Hi, my name's Grace and I'm a newbie. Having always been a very slightly chunkier teenager than most I lost a huge amount of weight by unhealthy means. Became 'happy' as it were, new boyfriend, leaving school etc... and stopped worrying about my weight. Inevitably it piled back...
