Well what can i say really disappointed with my weigh in, not the type to look for excuses but can anyone let me know if having an operation would have slowed down my weight loss or is this what I'm to look forward to, disappointment & being moody at home. Sorry really down today....:cry:

Hi Welcome to LT as long a the tea is leaf tea you should be ok, not milk or sugar though, good luck on your journey hun......

Great advice thanks Mini, not that I'm thinking of drinking anything stronger than black coffee but yeh good to know.

Trust me that cheeky smile you see on the telly is like a woof in sheeps clothing, its a killer but makes you feel great after you stop aching and get your breath back. hehe:character00116:

Hi All Its weigh day tomorrow and I'm a bit nervous, not really liked the food packs had to take the Stawberry one back on Friday not nice at all. Had a bit of a tummy bug (off my 2 yr son i think) so not really had much to eat, but kept the water down, not sure how it affects your weight...

I think I just may enjoy this forum after all. ;)

Thanks guys, no fighting over the name its only inspirational

Hi All I'm ready to start LT on Monday, bit scared really, I have done the lighter Life and lost 3s 2lb which was great but never did the maintenance (Money really). So here I am again determained this time to keep it off, holiday is in June so need to pull my finger out. I used Mini mins...

Hi All I have just finished Lighter Life after losing 3 stone (Yippee). I need another stone off and have bought Rick Gallop Express, just need a few tips on how to get started. I was so excited about eating again I cant seem to start this new eating plan so any help would really be helpful...

Thanks so you think its ok is it easy to follow

Hi ALL I have 3 days left on my foundation course and am unable to start the Management ( due to commitments) but would still like to keep the weight off (3 stone yippee) and may lose a bit more. Has anyone here thought of doing the GI PLAN, I have beening reading all about it but would like...

I'm with you there have you noticed that sometimes Lewis sings the wrong words me and my OH noticed it I want Lee to win now I think he is the best

Thanks for all the replies I know I shouldn't have gone on different scales and until I started LL I never really went on them before but now that my 100 days are nearly up I was just a bit curious well we all know what curiosity did don't we don't want to jepodise my last few weeks so no more...

Can I ask how that makes you feel when its time for your WI. I was really excited when it came to getting weighed and when it only showed a loss of 2lb well felt a bit gutted really, I can understand if I had strayed but no 100% GOOD a few other LLifers in my class have said the same.

Hi All Its been a while since I posted a thread but here goes. Has any one else been weighed on different scales and had a real difference ib weight loss/gain. The reason I ask my WI day is on a monday so went shopping got weighed in Boots on new fancy scales which also measures your height...

Good Evening my fellow LLifers. Just got weighed 3 more lb off, looking good for my 3stone in 100 days maybe a bit more. Feeling good about myself at the moment needed new clothes on saturday so got size 16 jeans(never had them before) & size 18 top (yeah). Not sure how I willfeel when I...

I'm having the same dilemma as you. I am 5,6 and recently went the docs for a checkup, asked about an ideal weight and she said about 10.2, but I'm not sure I would be able to get to that weight or really what to be that weight its such a dramatic change to what I have been used to. When I...

Well donew for the great loss up to now. If I was going on holiday in 3 weeks I would like a few more pounds off, stick to LL till you go away then just be sensible while you are away, you know now what you should be eating. You need a hoilday after LL I think so habe a brillant time (she says...

:hug99: Hi Red Sorry you fell so down, everybody has blips but just try to think positive, the first week is always the hardest, but keep in mind why you are doing this. Have you spoken to your LLC thats what their there for, give them a ring you never know it may just help. Keep drinking the...

Wow Tracy what a great post glad you are happy with your weight now hope you have a really fab holiday. I to think that my hubby will struggle with the management costs when they arise in 5 weeks time so will have to sit and have a good think about wether or not I should do it, if you have any...

Thanks for a ll the congrats I have lost 2s, 4lbs in 8 weeks feeling really good.

CMacca Its difficult the first few days on LL and the water is a struggle for a while. I statred with bringing a 2 litre bottle around with me and if I was sitting I would use a 1/2 pint glass which goes down real easy, maybe try the flavouring they taste ok and should help. Kepp it up you...

Good Evening Feloow LLifers Just tO update my WI, got weighed on Monday and lost another 3lb, as usual would have liked more but better off than on eh. Forgot how to update my ticker, so will try later

Cerulean, What a great achievement and fantastic pics. I to now weigh 13.6 and if I look as good as you do I will be pleased, thanks for the photo it just shows what we can all achieve, keep up the good work you look FANTASTIC.

Come on 1 blip in 4 weeks is not too bad, as least you know what you've done and if you are willing to stick to LL, then you will be able to get back on track. So pick yourself up and just think how much slimmer you will be when hubby comes home. 1 way to take your mind off the food think of...

I'm not yet at my 100 days but at week 5 I to only lost 18lbs. WI tonite so at week 7 hope to have lost over 2stone. I think LL claim if you stick to the plan you are guaranteed to lose 3 stone. Maybe a good idea to speak to your LLC she/he may be able to put your mind at rest, keep up the...

welldone Anna, Its a great feeling when you need to go down a clothes size. I have kept 1 pair of trousers so see the difference when I reach my goal, but thats it, everything else have gone to charity. Keep it up Girl:clap:

Was gonna say BIG FAT WELLDONE, But no BIG THIN WELLDONE. :)

Hey Sarah, I only told my family & my OH, not told his side though they just think that I have cut out all the crap, coz OH has also lost weight, they are abit like yours very tight with money I believe they would think its a waste of money. As for my family some a supportive but my skinny...

Thought I would be used to the water now but no. I'm ok in work but only in 2 days so really have to work at it when at home the flavouring do help though, St Clements for me.

I may have missed the answer to this but have the LLC told why you need to add milk, sorry if the answer is here:confused:

Obsessed Unfortunatley my Hubby gets it (:blahblah: ) all the time as he is the only one whos knows I'm on LL. Not told people in work as not ready for "Ohh its really bad for you". So poor Man's ears & mind must be going numb, very supportive though loads of compliments which make me feel...

whayhayyyy "100lbs to go, 100lbs to go eee iii adioh, 100lbs to go". Well done Cath great news you must feel fab, what a great acheivement, keep up the good work.:wow:

Big well done to you what a fab loss in 7 weeks you must feel fantastic.:superwoman: you go

Oh Boob job deffo on the cards have checked it out onBuoa it will cost just over £4000, but if you want them made bigger rather than just lifted its nearly the same size so when its time to get them going north again might think about going bigger, hubby says he will pay "what a sweetie"

Fave Flavours Yumm--mmy Just tried the toffee bar in the microwave just like a crunchy, Cath goona try the lemon one tomorrow.

Well done Just Do It for Starting LL, its a big challenge starting a diet. I've just started my 7th week on LL its the best diet I have done 1 more lb and 2 stone off. If there is anything I can help with let me know. Again " welldone"

Sounds like you are feeling better, just put your bad thoughts of you hols behind you now, just good memories, and because you know you "cheated" only you can get you back on track which it sounds like you already have,well done for you weight loss, keep your chin up;)

Fave Flavours Speaking to fellow LLifers at meeting, try putting the bars into small pieces in the microwave for a minute let them cool and they taste like honeycombe, gonna have a go tonight with a toffee bar, will let you all know how it goes.

I know others have asked this but how do you alter your ticker. Please help:confused: . Do I have to go back on the web site

;) Well done Tommeee, what a great post, its great to hear your news, I think when someone posts good news it must motivate others to aim for that feeling I know I feel great today but reading your post puts a big smile on my face for YOU, WELL DONE:bliss:

Hi To all the Lifers Just been to get weighed and lost 4lb:D. Thought I would be disappointed not getting my 2 stone, but no I feel great, a little more exercise now I think. SO Yheeppee.

Thanks alot for the info, just being a bit nosy yesterday cheers Pierce

Hope this ahs worked just a little pic of me & mine a little push to get nearer the goal as a read the other posts

I'm on week 6 and cheated"myself" only last week. I lost any way but not really as much as I wanted to. Got back on track this week really struggle some days but then when I see my clothes getting too big it really is an incentive to keep going keep it up not long now think of those size 10 jeans:D

Hello any one tell me what Rep Power is on the left-hand side of the posts we read

Fave Flavours Hi My fave soups are all but not the Thai. Just like the chocolate shake and all the bars, made a choc drink on Friday put a little nut bar on and froze some, not bad. I also find if you chop the bars up and put them in the freezer the last longer when you have to eat them.

TOTM :( Hi Im not alone then Decorators arrived Friday "good god"wish I could have ate something, wish I could have just stopped LL while they are here but "no pain no gain" as they say, sory no advice really but hang on in there.

Come on now, just think of the weight you have already lost you don't wanna jeopardise that. I read in LL Mag that one lady lost more when she went on Management so you may still lose more, Chin up:wavey:

Lateral Thigh Trainer Hi All. I read someones post that this doesn't last very long is that true, would hate to buy one and then have to throw it out.

I found out about LL from a work collegue, he lost 5 stone on it looks great (just wish his personality had changed to, opps sorry).:mad: I kept thinking "but I don't need to do this just stop snacking. Anyway 9 months later its now my 6 week and I'm 23lbs lighter. To top it off when I started...

I lapsed last week, and told my LLC and she praised me for coming back to the meeting, LLC is not there to shout at you. If its really what you want the you will go back to the meeting and tell your LLC, HE/SHE will help, its only 1 lapse so pick yourself up. You started this to get thin & fit...

Hi Kirsty I was light-headed for a few days but it does pass, your next week will be better.:)

Feelin Cold I know what you mean about the cold, I was once the one that said "Bloody hell its hot in here" not any more even my little son is moaning coz the heating is on I think well if I'm cold he must be freezing, so more blankets and full jammies for bed for him (poor thing). All I know...

Well Fellow LLifers I lost 3 pound this week not bad can't expect much more, but yes I'm pleased :D My nibbling has put my thoughts & weight back into perspective, if I cheat I'm only cheating myself no one else really cares if I don't lose the weight but me, so back on track and a big...

Hi Fellow L Lifers Well its Weigh day today 6.30pmish, struggled with the water this week sometimes I think I should be used to it now its my 5 week. munched a few nibbles this week:( I know silly girl but getting a bit fed up with food packs. I know whe I tell my LLC she will understand...

Crisps Hi I make the crips on the baking Parchment I got from Tesco, also try making a big one; 2 tablespoons of soup mix 2 tablespoons of HOT water mix till its a paste, microwave for 1 min just check its not to burned, make the rest of the soup while it cools, its great feels like you are a...

Hey there Carokokos. I have been on LL for 5 weeks and yes its hard you will want to eat, but take 1 day at a time and take the feeling you have on weigh day when the LLC tells you you have lost home with you put in the front of you mind so every time you go near the fridge or cupboard you...

Thats a rip off my GP never charged me anything for the form or my 1st check up, I can understand charging a small amount but bloody hell it on takes a few mins surely it would cost more to get you loads of medication for Diabeties, blood pressure ETC.:mad:

If you can why not try the flavouring for the water. I have got the St Clements its ok & I make a hot lemon tea with it just make a black tea then add 1/2 teaspoon to the tea its acceptable.

Hair Loss I've been on LL for 5 weeks now so getting a bit worried about the hair loss, my hair is relly fine so really can't afford to loose any is the any advise out there:(

Thanks Katie Took the Hubby with me so the motivation was there I wanted to go home after 4 lengths but ya know what men are like, needed it though feel like a have done something to help me on my to being Gorgeous;)

Well done on the loss, and a bigger well on the winnings may both keep going

Just thought a should let you all know, started swimming again tonite 1st time in about 3 yrs fell knackered but great goona try for 2/3 nites a week.

Sorry Hi Sarah, Just to say sorry to hear about your Dad's illness, I lost my Dad 2 years ago June 2007, you never seem to have enough time with them. Best thing for you to do is just spend loads of time with him, I suppose his medication will help. Big :grouphugg: to you and your Dad

What a great idea for a treat Katie.

Hey MaxieP Is there a chance you can contact other members of your group. Maybe look for another session around what terrible news,:( try to keep your chin up.

Thatsthe spirit See Tomee Positive thinking wins in the end, no more pre weigh ins and the results on weigh day will make you feel great. This is for you keepup the good work:grouphugg:

Good on ya :D Well done with the weight Loss Charlie Brown. I been on LL for 5 weeks now its going good so keep up the good work.

Bad Week Hey Tomee I had a bad "Need to Eat day":mad: yesterday but don't worry about the the scale check that you do all that counts is that its coming off, so you are closer to being more Gorgeous;)(not sure if its spelt right but you know what I mean). LL recommends you drink 4 litres...

Hi I registered this morning. Would just like to chat to anyone who is on or has done the LL Diet. Today was a bad day really needed to eat:confused: , water wasn't really helping so packed me and the wee small boy to a friends house where all I did was drink black coffee so I'll be up all...
