Yes I drink plenty of water! And haven't had anything with citric acid in it!

I have been following this plan for almost two weeks and keto sticks are still showing as negative. I haven't eaten anything so don't understand why. I would not be bothered but I am still feeling hungry which suggests to me that I'm not in ketosis. I am losing weight so maybe I don't need to be...

Just to throw another thought into the melting pot :D If you are susceptible to migraines then the hormonal implant may not be a good idea. I don't know enough about it to judge! Having suffered from migraines myself i was taken off the pill and offered the mini pill. However we decided to...

Are you honestly sticking to plan 100%?? I haven't lost for several weeks but i also have been bad at sticking to the plan AND i haven't been drinking enough water. This diet 100% works but only if you stick to it 100%! Some people get away with the odd 'cheat' or 'blip' but generally it seems...

Apologies for being stupid but why would you take this medication? I've heard of it but don't know what it does :confused:

I too am struggling and have been for the last couple of weeks! It's nice to see other people have the same problems. What i don't know is how to get my 'head' past the issues we seem to be having. The odd low carb snack becomes more regular and then suddenly i find myself eating 'normally' and...

I normally eat quite a lot of veg so i don't think it is that! TOTM started today so it could be that. I also just found another post with very similar symptoms so i suspect it is probably also constipation. Great combination!! I'm off to the gym now for a gentle session - for some reason...

The water really helps with hunger. Also it flushes toxins out of your system. I was told i need to drink 4 pints which is just over 2l. I find this much more manageable (?sp) than 3 full litres! I still seem to spend a lot of time in the loo but if it means my system is being 'flushed' then i...

I am on day 10 of 810 and am seriously bloated. Very odd as it's the kind of bloating i get if i eat a lot of bread and obviously i haven't had any!! I haven't been as 'regular' as normal but i put that down to the fact that i have been eating less - less in / less out?! I don't feel...

I do think they're great! Any funny looks/comments from work colleagues (if you do take it in with you!) will soon disappear along with the lbs!! Just remember not to try and mix anything with hot water - it will cause a pressure build up and 'explode'. Not to mention being too hot to hold and...

Seems to be a mixed bag of opinions on the pricing policy. If your CDC is working from home then it doesn't sound like she's got too many overheads so her prices therefore do sound a little high. If you get on with her and she motivates you then it is probably worth staying with her and paying a...

Oh, forgot to say.... KD also said she has known a lot of ladies to get pregnant on CD. Not sure why... Can only assume that as you lose weight your fertility improves (or maybe you need to find something to do with all the time you used to spend eating ;))

Def sounds like you could be.... I am planning on ttc in about 3 weeks time (just trying to lose a stone quickly before we start!) and did ask one of the CDCs on here - KD - about the plans when being pregnant. You can't do any of the CD plans if you are pregnant. I have also done a little...

Ooops!! That sounds exactly the kind of thing i'd do! I took one in to work the other day and in my head it was chocolate. Didn't even look at the pack as i poured it into my blender bottle!! I still thought it was chocolate flavour until i saw it wasn't brown and smelt of banana!! Wally!! Now...

You add just over 200ml of water so the 500ml one is fine. Easier to fit in your handbag as well!! If i remember rightly the 700ml version is cheaper. Swings and roundabouts.... I have got one of the original 'blendabottles' from Lakeland and also one of the cheaper copy versions from my...

I am also sensitive to aspartame. Not in a big big way but i can't drink any form of 'diet' drink without getting a headache. For sweetner i use 'splenda'. I don't think it has got aspartame in it - doesn't affect me anyway!!

Thanks Debz! Is this the current price or new price?? I totally agree about the odd pence... it's very strange!

I didn't realise there were different prices :confused: My CDC sells at 'RRP' which is £1.70 for a sachet, £1.97 for bars and tetras. Maybe a price increase is due from her?! Am amazed that people charge different rates! Then again i guess the counsellors run as a business so they can charge...

The best type of mixer i've found is a 'blender bottle'. If you google it you will find a few places selling them. The best value is a website called 'my protein'. In the accessory section on the site. They are less than £4 delivered!! I still find the shakes can be lumpy (maybe i don't shake...

This is just a thought but after 19 weeks (fantastic achievement by the way!!) your body is probably ready to move into the next stage of the diet. My CDC told me that when you get hungry (like it sounds you are, and seemingly out of the blue) then your body has run out of 'reserves' and it is...

Well that's less than £20 a week - so cheaper than a meal replacement plan... BUT, you've still got to buy food!! But then it is more than a gym membership which could be more beneficial.... if you make the effort to go!! Swings and roundabouts i guess!!

I did have a brief look at their website but when i tried to find out any more - costs etc - i kept drawing blanks! The nearest clinic to me is a 40 minute drive so i decided not to look into it any further. I think they base the eating plan they recommend on a blood test. The fact i...

Sorry to hear your news about your oh being made redundant. I've been through it 3 times and it is horrible. It does very much depend on your local health authority but you CAN get LT on prescription. Unfortunately it isn't available where i live but i do know it can be prescribed. If you can...

She wasn't my favourite celebrity but i don't blame her for trying to make as much money as she could for her kids before she left this world. Having just lost my mother in law to cancer at 65 i feel quite angry about this disease right now. She was young but poor Jade, she died far too soon...

Asda? Sorry it's a no! Checked their sizes when i went in earlier and they only go up to a size 20. Almost wished i was pregnant!! They've got some lovely summery tops in at the moment! Sorry my post was no help to you at all! At least you'll know not to bother!

Asda? Asda do a maternity range but i don't know what their biggest size is - at least a 22 i think. Will check when i go over there later and let you know if see anything! Otherwise like a couple of people have said ebay is always worth checking out!

I have taken xenical on and off a few times. The side effects do seem to be different in different people! I found them to be worse when i ate out and didn't know what had gone into the food. The worst time was the morning after a chinese that at the time i had thought was ok to eat. The...

Why don't you try w8? I'm not going to repeat the comments so many others have made in regards to healthy weight loss but i would like to add another diet to the equation! I have been doing w8 for 5 weeks now and lost 19 lbs! If you google 'all about w8' you will find their website. The...

I see lots of people have already replied to you with poems! Just after our little boy was born i had a poem written for my husband. I don't think i'm allowed to post a link on here but if you do a google search for 'the poetry studio' you will find a lovely site that has a whole range of...

Why not try all about w8? Hi Alibambino! I thought about lipotrim and got the first week of sachets. The pharmacist did tell me if i found the amount of artificial sweetners too high i could go back and get my money back! Anyway, i tried a couple of shakes and gave up. The pharmacist was fine...
