    Little Lumps

    I also found some lumps over my body, and got them checked out by the doctor, and he said they are just small glands that I probably never felt before, because of the fat that surrounded them! :-)

    Small dilemma...

    When I started this diet over 14 weeks ago, I thought I would only be able to manage 8 weeks. Everything fitted nicely in with this time scale. My friends were all doing exams and dissertations. So everyone expected me to be finished by now, ie END OF EXAM parties!!! Tomorrow night at Uni is...

    Today has been my coldest day since doing LL. I have always felt COLD but today i am freezing.

    I am a bit confused with this ketosis thing!

    You only need MORE water if its DARK. (Which may also mean you're constipated!) lol. Light pink is great, you're in Ketosis, producing Ketones, and drinking enough to wash them out diluted enough to be OK. :-) Think positive. Pink is your colour, and pink is the right colour :D

    Tabasco sauce!

    LL make a point of putting Tabasco sauce as an allowed item in our booklets. However, only the original variety, I don't recommend any other colours/varieties. Normal tabasco sauce should not cause any problems. I have used it in my soups at week 3-7 but have since gone off the soups. I can say...

    My first nut crunch was horrible, HOWEVER, I really do recommend trying it again. Break it up into little pieces, and enjoy with a coffee or warm shake. They are actually delicious. They are my favorite bar now, but when I started 12 weeks ago, I hated the smell of them, and found the taste...

    woohoo for chocolate muffins

    Yeh it normally takes 3 days to enter ketosis - and like others have said, our little friends, the "ketostix" will help you judge whether or not you're in Ketosis, but generally you will know by not feeling at all hungry!! :-) Its an amazing feeling and i find it hard to believe that for the...

    woohoo for chocolate muffins

    You get a choice of 4 different bars on LL. Lemon, Fruit, Toffee and Nut Crunch. You will only be allowed these once you have entered Ketosis, and even then you are only allowed one per day. To make really tasty Lemon Biscuits - Chop the lemon bar into about 8 pieces. Put 4 on a plate evenly...

    What do most people lose per week?

    No, not each week. Everyone will have good and bad weeks. But the AVERAGE losses are MUCH higher. Weight loss with LL is also faster, and you will continue to lose if you stick to the programme. Whereas with WW, you will plato alot quicker. I have had weeks where I have lost only 1lb but...

    Combining 'normal food' with LL packs?

    Eating is simply not part of this programme. We all know its hard, but please, please try to survive the function. Its really not worth jepordising your weight loss with eating food as you will be taken out of Ketosis, and its often harder to do something for a second time... You may get into...

    Universal Contour Wrap (?)

    I had them over 6 weeks. I have noticed some problem areas certainly looking much better after the wrap. I noticed the biggest difference with my jeans after wrap number 2 but yes, my skin certainly felt like it has tightened. Not so sure about toned, but I think it certainly helped!!! :-)

    Moving to Weight Watchers after LL.... (?)

    I personally think WW will just help me maintain a healthy eating lifestyle.

I think my idea of moving to WW would be to help me manage my healthy eating...

    Favourite Flavours

    I started off loving the soups, but after 8 weeks, my current favourites are the Nut Crunch bar, and the Chocolate pack, blended with hot water & coffee, and 3 sweetners. Mmmm! I tend to chop the nut bar into pieces and dunk them into the hot choc! I have gone off the soups completely and...

    Feeling greeeeeeeeat....

    Just thought I'd share this moment of happiness with you all. I am feeling soo good today after not eating a single bit of food, despite there being EVERYTHING i used to LOVE in front of me, pretty much ALL day. Luckily I didn't care, and don't care TBH! I feel GREAT for not eating...

    Well I survived :-) Not a bit of food entered my mouth! Yippee! Everyone commented on how good I looked! YAY! i have updated my site with some pics from today! Well done to everyone else, and thanks for your support. I kept thinking about my friends on here today, it was hard, and the...

    Mags, I used to think my shoes were boats, but size 11 isn't that bad for a 6ft male! All my mates are 10-12!

    Diet Clears Pilot, arrested for failing breathaliser...

    next to the quote button, bottom right of your post - its like a piece of paper with a quill. I agree, would not be funny in the car situation! But if this happened, of course i'd insist on a blood test, considering I haven't touched alcohol for the last 8 weeks, I think I'd be heart broken if...

    Diet Clears Pilot, arrested for failing breathaliser...

    LOL I know this isn't related to Lighter Life as such, but I found it quite interesting - the pilot who got arrested last week, for apparently being drunk, was actually on a 'heavy diet' and the smell of his breath / acetones caused him to fail the breathaliser test!! Shocking but made my...

    Universal Contour Wrap (?)

    My jeans do feel different, yep. I never measured myself personally as I trust the salons measurements. I was asked if I had any problem areas, I said the top of my legs. When I came out of the wrap, and Nikki (my GF) saw me and she said my thighs definitely looked more toned, and thinner...

    Easter Sunday... uh oh....

    Yeh Sarah, we know its hard, but put yourself first. You're doing amazingly well, and it would be a shame for something like this to ruin it. Just remember, you don't need the food to have a good time, show them that, and make sure you go back next year and your body will explain to them why you...

    Universal Contour Wrap (?)

    Thats just from the second wrap Samantha. My first was 8 inches! So a total of 21.5 and still got one wrap to go! I had mine done at a salon in Uxbridge, West London - i know its not really London, London, so not sure if that would be of any use?

    Hope for those who can't see it in the mirror yet!

    I can't notice a difference in the mirror, yet :-( I know its just a mental thing though! I think when the scales get into the 14s, which should be very very soon, (currently at about 15stone 3lbs) I think I will definitely be able to feel it! My first goal was 14 stone. So I am about a stone...

    Universal Contour Wrap (?)

    I think its certainly worth a try. Its just nice to lay down and relax for an hour. I didn't really go with the intention to want to loose inches and inches. Just wanted to experience something different as a treat to myself for doing LL. It certainly is a treat, and as already mentioned, my...

    HELP!! Food ideas on LL PLEASE!!

    Chocolate Muffin. Mix 3/4 chocolate pack with 2 table spoons of boiling water, mix into a thick paste, adding sweetners to taste. Use a microwavable mug, as you need to put the mix in the microwave. Microwave for 30-60 seconds, and you should see at the base of the mug, a type of cake! mmm...

    Right - possible dilemma... Sunday my family are going to see my grand parents up in Birmingham, who are Italian. Now I have not seen them since Christmas, and managed to put off going up until now. Obviously they do not know I am doing this diet. A sunday at "Nonna's" normally...

    Scary, to be fair, I only did 5 litres yesterday. I think this will be the normal from now on!

    Bad Week :(

    No problem for stealing my thread but I am equally as concerned, as my water intake is probably still around 6-7 litres per day. Does anyone know what the side effects/symnptons would be of too much water?

    Can someone tell me about psyhillium husks please?

    I too had no idea, but wikipedia helped me understand them a bit better: Looks like they sell it in health stores: But not sure how much they are. I don't think they affect your Ketosis, hence why alot of people tend to use them when on LL.

    I'll certainly contact the relevant local papers this week. It is disgusting. The way I found out, was after recommending 2 friends to sign up, who on visit to the GP, saw the signs.... crazy stuff. Its not that easy finding and re-registering for another GP. Its totally disgraceful.

    Do you think....

    Hmmm, that sounds like a great idea! I can't see any logical reason why they couldn't- but you never know with these sort of things, could have any excuse like Health and Safety etc... but would certainly be worth a shot. *no pun intended* Nothing to lose!!! (apart from the lbs you'd shred...
