Hi Summerbody, I'm starting today too!! It will be my 25th wedding anniversary in 11 weeks and I've set myself a really difficult goal of 3 stone in those 11 weeks. I'll need to up my exercise to reach this goal (but that's not hard - any exercise is more than I'm doing right now!!) and I'll...

Also meant to say that one of the lads in our group has written a ProPoint calculator app for iphones and androids - its brilliant, you can get it here: Weight Watchers Calculator Application

First WI and lost 4lbs - delighted with that as I had an unplanned mad weekend...cousins 50s birthday party, visitors for Sat & Sun which meant BBQ and drinks Sat night and big Sunday dinner. I went over my weekly points by Saturday afternoon (all on alcohol!)and once the visitors were gone on...

Hi girls, I weighed in again yesterday after a break of 6 weeks too. I was pleased to be told that I had only put on 1lb. I still have 2 1/2 to 3 stone to lose so I have to get back at it straightaway before the 15lbs I've lost comes back. So this is it!!! take care all Denise

Hi all, Had Wi at lunchtime and YEAH, down 8lbs. This is what I was hoping for tbh. Carlos, never heard of that product will have to check it out. Hope ye all are doing okay. D

Hi Lily, I'm on day 5 and really had no energy to exercise up until now but I reckon I'm in ketosis now as I'm buzzing and not hungry anymore. I had signed up to an "operation transformation" thing in the gym (anything to get me going...I'm very bad, hate exercising when I'm this size) It is...

Hi LF, hows day 5 going for you? You be either just in or just about to hit ketosis about now. I'm there alright - the grogginess and hunger have gone....so much so that I had to remind myself to take a shake!! Let us know how ur doing D

What is it with us Irish girls - I started on Monday too!! I'm in the midlands. This is my second (proper) time to do Lipotrim. I say "proper" cos I have pi$$ed about with it a few times in between but my head just wasnt in the right place each of those times and I didnt do TFR properly and...

Josie, the vanilla shake is lovely with coffee - either hot or cold and the chocolate one is lovely with mint tea - kinda like a mint choc!! Latebloomer - how are ya doing? I'm really hungry today, cant wait for ketosis to kick in. Right there with you Josie on the running to the loo the...

Hi all, I'm on day 2 of Lipotrim, and I've added my details below.... it'll only be 3 weeks, so 16lbs would be fabulous:) Deem princess-of-power: 11.4lbs to go / 2.6lbs lost Little Miss Diet: 17lbs to go / 0lbs lost exiguous: 20lbs to go / 0lbs lost Sonkie: 14lbs to go / 0lbs lost...

WOW - that's fantastic...its great to hear how well others are doing.

Well done Sonkie - they're fantastic losses. Sha...I know we shouldnt but I weigh myself everyday. Its great when you're down, but can unnecessarily demotivate you if you STS or are up. Just keep 100% on the shakes and it the weight will fly off you. Make sure you are drinking your water too...

Hi all, Day 1 underway....one shake and 1 pint of water down the hatch. So far so good. How are you all doing? D

Hi all, I'm another re-starter, at least I will be tomorrow morning:). I did LT nearly 4 years ago before having my little girl and found it brilliant, tried it twice more after she was born but my head just wasnt in the right place for it. Well it IS in the right place now - I cant believe...

Hi girls, doing well. Have only had one minor episode, and that was my own fault - was pushing it a little, and got told off within a few hours by my little blue policemen!! One thing I really miss is cheese, so I got some Low Low mature cheddar slices HAHAHA...wont be doing that again. I...

Thanks girls. I have to say I'm not finding it difficult at all....I am still inclined to ramble around the kitchen at night opening presses :) old habits are hard to break, so long as I keep on closing them it'll be fine!! Thankfully I havent had any bother so far at all with the lil blue...

Down 4lbs, only started last Wed so that's a total of 4. Well done all, D

mmmm - just looking at what I'm eating, could really do with more protein, will have to fix that!!

Hi girls, Sorry havent been around for a while - I weighed in last night at the gym (they have one of those fancy calibrated scales, and my scales at home is acting a bit demented at the moment) and I was down just over 2 kilos, so 4 1/2 lbs YEAHHH. I had initially hoped for more on my first...

Good woman Kae - I've never tried Quorn before, will have to try this. D

Co Roscommon here.....:wavey:

Day 3 today - this was how yesterday panned out Brekkie: Oatibix flakes with semi-skimmed milk Coffee Lunch: M&S Count on Us Chicken Tikka Masala....yummmm Coffee M&S low fat yogurt Snack: Coffee Orange Tea: M&S Count on Us Pizza - alright, I suppose its better than NO pizza Aldi low fat...

Title says it all really!! Actually it was the Curry recipe posted earlier that made me think of it. I'm only thinking this way since Wed so dont have anything special to kick it off...but will be going through some family favourites tonight to see which fits the bill and which can be modified...

Hey KB, how was yesterday. I found it fine tbh, though met my sisters for lunch in a Torc Chocolates restaurant of all places!! I ordered the soup and brown bread and never thought to ask for no cream...so out it arrived, doused in cream. Well there was no way on this earth I was going to be...

Best of luck KB. I only started this morning so no words of wisdom from this corner, only support:) Denise

..and by summer you'll need a whole new set of clothes cos the ones in your wardrobe will fall off you:):) btw - laughed when I read about your trainers on the radiators in work, my shoes are at this moment upside down the radiator here at work too!! take care Denise

Well done Becca - fabulous loss, I'm only starting today so its great to see what other people are eating. Keep it up, Denise

Good on ya Blue Butterfly - about the gym, do you have as much energy as before? I go (reluctantly...)3 times a week and if I'm being good I do about 40-60 mins cardio and some weights machines, but those days have been pretty rare for the last few weeks - more like 20-30 mins cardio and feck...

Hi all, As of breakfast tomorrow morning I will be on Xenical. I'm so tired of half heartedly trying different diets and potions in an effort to shift the lard off my ass (....and all the other places!!) This morning I was 14.7, weighed on my own scales, in exactly the right spot, starkers...

A cup of nettle tea does it for me every time.... as does a can or two of Magners, and no prizes for guessing which one I prefer:):)

Hi all, Can I join in please??? I'm a newbie - posted here last year looking for info re Xenical and got some great advice from a number of you. I bit the bullet and spoke to my GP today and lo and behold I am now the proud owner of 84 lil blue capsules:) I am 14 stone 7lbs, so think I'll be...

Hi Lorna, I've an appt at 12 today to get the mirena coil in, and I'm going to ask her for a prescription for Xenical while I'm there. Hopefully it wont be a problem as my BMI is well into the 30s. Like you I was reluctant to go on it while on the pill. D

Chat away - I dont mind:) Redkoala - but if ur restricting your fat that low anyway, does it make much difference....see, if I get a prescription for this it will cost me €100 a month - and times are tough:) I can definitely see how the glorious orange stuff would keep you on track though...

Hi again girls (and lads, of course) I still havent bitten the bullet and have of course done nothing but eat and therefore have gained 3lbs :mad: But yesterday I joined up in my gym for a Weight Loss Boot Camp:eek:, so at the moment I am doing this along with keeping an online food and...

yeah I know - Celtic Tiger my a**e

Hi Katie - in theory we pay for all prescriptions, but there is a drug refund scheme and a medical card. I dont qualify for a Medical Card but everyone gets the drug refund scheme. That means that you pay for all prescribed drugs but once you've reached €90 in one month then all other drugs for...

Catkins - I did Cambridge earlier this year and it didnt work cos I cheated the whole time :) I had great success on Lipotrim back in 2005 when I wanted to lose weight prior to TTCing....but as it a lot of diets it was brilliant the first time I did it, then less and less so every time I...

OMG girls - ye feckers FREE, in Ireland you pay the first €90 a month for all prescriptions and anything else after that is free...though afaik they are changing that too, I think you will have to pay the lot and then claim back the excess:mad: Catkins - good luck with this...I'm the very...

Thanks girls for all your replies. I have signed up for 3 months to another website (..dont know if I'm allowed mention it by name here!) and in there I can track all food and exercise. It give you full nutritional information for your food so you can plan your meals etc keeping within certain...

Hi all, This is a brilliant site - you cant beat real life people in real life circumstances to give you support, advice and encouragement. Where I'm at right now is that I finally plucked up the nerve to talk to my GP about weightloss meds and, after a chat and lots of questions, she...

Hi girls, Can I join in with you? I'm restarting LT today. I was on it a year and a half ago before TTCing and I lost almost 3 stone. I now have a gorgeous 6mo little girl and I'm at exactly the same weight as when I first started on the shakes. I have started and stopped so many times since...
