Fantastic GT. I haven't yet felt a difference as most of my clothes are stretchy and to be honest I've been feeling a bit down about it but your positive outlook has made me feel a lot better.

Thanks all for your words of wisdom, I feel a lot better today xx

Thanks BL. You look bloody fantastic in your pics, it looks like you have always been thin and I know that any advice from you is coming from a pro. Congrats on your weight loss xx

Yes, that's what I think I will do. It was strange coz yesterday everyones weight loss was really low and someone else did mention it but nobody paid much attention. I have also just checked my weight losses as I get weighed in kilos but she puts my loss into pounds and this is not correct...

It didn't have a pack or water as I was running late and had to catch the bus. She said I might be retaining water as when I started I struggled to get water down me and only in the last week have I managed 4 litres a day. Maybe this is the reason, I do hope so

Thanks laststraw. I guess I'm just having a blip but it is rather annoying. Hopefully I will have a big loss next week

Hey everyone. Had my third weigh in yesterday and have put on 2lbs. I'm so upset and a bit confused also. Basically each week I weigh myself at home on the morning I go to get weighed (this is the only day that my husband allows me to have the scales). Anyway, my weight is totally different on...

Don't be down about it Greentea. It's not a good idea to weigh yourself every day as it can fluctuate so much with water retention and time of the month etc. I know it's easier said than done as I was constantly on and off the scales until my husband hid them! At the start of LL, my weight was...

Oh my god, just had the vanilla shake and nearly threw up. It tastes like caramel which I hate. Will avoid this one at all costs. I really like the strawberry and banana though. I tried to make crisps from the mushroom soup paste but they got stuck to the plate and I wasted a soup, I guess it...

I definately admire your outlook roundrachel and you are right, nobody is perfect. I just want to be able to go into a normal shop and be able to get something that fits rather than be restricted to Evans and online shopping. I had better start saving now. I also have a really supportive husband...

Thanks for the tip roundrachel. To be honest I am really struggling with the water but will definately make more of an effort now

roundrachel (or maybe not so round). Did you lose 10 stone in six months? That is fantastic. I really want to lose it quickly as I am just sick of being like this. I've had a good start though, 1 stone and 3lbs in my first two weeks. Hope it's a sign of things to come...

Bexnkev, you are amazing. Just checked out your pictures and you look like a different person. Are you left with loose skin as this is my worst fear. I know I will have some as I recently had a baby and had a caesarean which left me with an overhang on my stomach but I just don't want to be too...

Yes you are absolutely right. We can do it! Feel a lot better now after my mushroom soup flavoured crisps!

Hey all you September starters. Between us we have lost over 8 stone which is`an average fashion model' according to Wytchy's blog. This is blooming fantastic and has cheered me up no end. Feeling a little down today despite losing 9 lbs as I have realised that I have the most weight to lose out...

Thanks all. Very pleased with my weight loss and rather shocked when I got on the scales, so shocked that I nearly fell off them!! Well done to everyone also, keep up the good work!!!

Wow Claire that's amazing. Most of my weight is from having my gorgeous son and I want to lose it before we try and give him a brother or sister!

Yes, we need to take each week at a time. We can do this and we will do this. I plan to take pics after each stone is gone so compare so I can track my progress. You guys should do the same

Wytchy, your blog makes me howl with laughter. I can't wait for your next installment, please keep it up!

It will happen greentea. I have fingers, toes and everything else crossed for us

Fantastic, thanks so much for that. Blonde Logic you are my inspiration x

Thanks very much and congratulations. This does help a lot. Is your skin shrinking with you or do you end up with wobbly bits?

Cool, thanks v much x

Help please, I cannot get my avatar. I think I need to have 20 posts which I do. Any suggestions?

I need to lose around 10 stone and I was wondering if anyone else needs to also or has done. I started LL last week weighing 19.3 and want to get down to around 9.7, I am 5ft 3 inches tall so I think this is about right. I would love to hear from any others who have lost this amount and to hear...

Thanks all so much for your good wishes. Really nice supportive people on here xx

These all look fantastic. Will definately try them tomorrow. Thanks for sharing them

My LLC used to deal with eating disorders which is essentially what we all have. She said she did have to do LL for three weeks though as part of the training. However she is so thin, I cannot imagine there was anything left of her. I also had a midwife that hadn't had kids, isn't this the same...

I feel the same today in a way as I feel a bit dizzy and sick. I am going into week 2 but even the thought of food makes me queasy. Stay strong and just think it's not for the rest of your life, you can do it

My stick was really dark also and I was told that I was dehydrated but I simply cannot drink anymore water or I may drown!

Well done. Very jealous also, I'm going into week 2 and feel a bit dizzy and sick this evening. I finish foundation around Christmas but I am going to continue with development so won't be tempted by christmas dinner

My husband is also really supportive. He is stick thin so doesn't need to watch what he eats but he has been cooking away from me and eating in secret so I don't feel like I'm missing out. I caught him scoffing a waffle the other day and looked all guilty when I found him

My energy levels seem to have really dropped today. I am just starting week 2 and I feel really dizzy and slightly sick. Had a nice hot shower and feel a bit better but think I need to drink more

I have told my family and close friends only. Nobody else really needs to know. This is one of the points they discuss in the LL meetings as it often happens that your friends or colleagues start treating you differently with the more weight that you lose. Some of it might be envy so just rise...

Caz, how do I add myself to the list?

First weigh-in on LL and I've lost 7.5 pounds. Really rather pleased with that. Someone in my class lost 10 pounds so I came second!! Feel fantastic today and was given the bars, had the peanut one which was yummy but a bit strange chewing again. I feel extremely motivated and looking forward to...

Suzanne, I'm new also so just trying to get the hang of it. My weigh in is 11am tomorrow morning x

Hi Janie, I've also just started LL and my first weigh-in is tomorrow which will be day six so we have started around the same time. Good luck with your first weigh in also. Tanya x

Good luck to you Suzanne. I have also stuck to it completely and haven't found it too hard but early days I guess. I am pretty sure I have lost as I feel less bloated x

Hello, I'm new to this and have just joined LL last week. I have my first official weigh-in tomorrow so rather excited. I have been weighing at home but my scales are different to the ones in the centre which is probably a good thing. I might ask my husband to hide the scales next week as I...

Thanks for the tip. Failing that, I have just bought some breath freshener!

I am lucky because... I have a beautiful new son and an amazingly supportive husband I live in Cornwall which is one of the most beautiful places in the world I have a fantastic family who are supporting me in my journey of weight loss I have a wonderful mother who is financing LL and not...

Hi, I have just started LL and am new to this site which is fantastic by the way.. Good luck to all other LL starters. I have my first weigh-in tomorrow so I'm a bit apprehensive but rather excited. My first week went OK except I felt so weak on day three that I could hardly life my hands. Also...

My name is Tanya and I have just joined Minimins. What a fantastic site especially the inspiration slide show. I have around 10 stone to lose and have just started Lighter Life. I put on a lot of weight during my first pregnancy and had some complications during the birth due to my weight. I...
