Ducolax is "violent". My experience was very painful. Only take it if you have a day off work! I took sennokot every night for three months and still had terrible trouble. Always take a disposable glove with you when you need the loo ;P

-3lb

I wanted to know, as most mayos have sugar in them.. Thanks. If I find one that's sugar free I'll let you know. In the meantime I'll just make my own ?

Hi, Day one over. What are people putting on salad as a dressing? Also what Mayo are you using? Ta!

Just keep brushing it or get one of those tongue scraper things :)

Whoops. Posted in the wrong thread. First wi today. -5lb :)

I never had more than a 4lb loss lat time I did lipo. I was always between 1-4lb and was 100% by the book. It was gutting at times but a loss is a loss :)

-5lb. It's totm too so I'm happy. Last time I did lipo my highest loss was 4lb, so all good :) Ps, I managed to have a poo the size of my arm, yesterday... I'm sure that helped..

My partner and I did that first time around. We also used to drink them from the Starbucks take away cups to fool us even more :D

Both S&P are fine with soups. Not sure about tea, as I don't drink it. I struggled with the whole ketosis thing, so I bought ketosticks from the chemist to check when I peed. You'll probably hit ketosis the end of the first week? (I guess everyone is different?) Feeling cold is normal. I tend to...

I did lipo for 3 months and lost 4 stone. I went from a 16 to an 8 X

The only way I can do the shakes is to have only chocolate. Have water from the fridge, and neck the whole thing in one go. Usually over the sink, as it makes me gag. Lol

The diet gives me a racing heart and sometimes feels like it's going to jump out of my chest. The lack of sleep things usually passes after a week or so. Well for me anyway.

One thing I do not miss about this diet... Constipation! I took sennokot for the whole three months I was on lipo last time, and still could go. Ducolax was far too violent for me.. Mental note: always take a pot of Vaseline and a disposable glove to the toilet with me. :P

Thank all! :) I've found it ok. I got really sick of it last time, gagging with every mouthful (I only have choc shakes, I can't cope with anything else). I'm almost over day five. it's totm this week, so I'm not sure what my loss will be this week. I never lost more that 4lb a week when I did...

I've previously lost 4stone on lipo, I was 100% which was hard being a chef. I got others to taste my cooking. I would never, and never will cheat:) It's 100% all the way, even with a cold. My imaginary food is getting me through it ;)

Deffo refeed! You have to do things property or your body will suck up all the glycogen and throw you way off track. Good luck! :)

Day two. I'm sat in the garden with a streaming nose and full of a cold. Typical. Just another test I suppose! I will stay strong and eat my imaginary comfort food to make me better! ?

Hello, I thought I'd check in... Its been 32 months since I lost 4 stone with Lipotrim, and maintained... Ive put a stone one since December just gone, so I start Lipo again tomorrow, purely because I want the weight to come off fast, and I know it works. Hopefully I'll only be on for a...

Hi, I came off TFR in October, and my hair started to come out 3 months after that (Dec). I was put on iron pills, as a deficiency was picked up by the doc's, probablt triggered by TFR... Ive been in iron pills since then. My hair is only just starting to ''grow back''. Its a long process, but...

Hi Guys and Gurls... I thought Id check in, as I havent said hello since January. I came off TFR in October, and Ive managed to maintain since then, 6 months and counting. Its been pretty easy, (mentally its been a struggle, and still is). I just wanted to say well done to everyone whos...

Does it grow back??

Hi, Guys, Thanks for the replies. It is a really stressfull time, as Im so worried. My hair seems to have stopped growing. I have a short style, and had it cut 4 weeks ago. It usually grows really quickly, and quite thick, and after about 3 weeks, Im complaining that Im due another cut.. But my...

I suffered terribly with constipation from a week into TFR. Fibreclear made things worse for me. I took sennokot every day for almost 3 months. Not so good, but it was the only way I could ''go'', and I still struggled. If you want a violent all dayer on the loo, I suggest Ducolax. That stuff is...

Hi Guys, Long time no speak. I hope you are all doing well? Im into my 6th week after liptorim TFR, and Ive maintained my target weight loss :) Ive noticed over the last 4 weeks, that my hair is coming out more, and thinning in some places, and almost feels like baby hair. I didnt have...

Good Luck. x

I've lost 3lb this week. Really pleased with that, as I've done a refeed :D Im in the size 10's now, from a size 16. My other half is now in my old size 16's, from a size 22... happy days :D x

Well its in the refeed plan my pharmacist gave to me! It doesnt tell me when I can/cannot have my bread, surely a bigger 'breakfast' is better, considering I start work at 6am, have my shake, then have the ''second part of my double breakfast'' at around 9am. Feel like Im being told off! Its...

I've found it ok. Not at all bored with my food choices. Enjoying every mouthful. Very conscious about putting weight on though. To the point where I think I may need counceling! Weighing tomorrow. Off to the Theatre tonight :)

I went to the dox yesterday, as Ive been feeling really dizzy, and fainted on Fri.... theyve never heard of Lipotrim!!

You must think my losses are s*it then hun.

Hi, This is my 7th day of refeed, and whilst I know its nowhere near dinnrer time yet, Id thought Id post this, as I know what Ill be eating today :D Please let me know what you think. Day 1 B – shake L – shake D- 4oz steamed chicken breast with a small bowl of lettuce, tomato & celery...

I found fibreclear made me even more bunged up :?

I too have adopted ''Bingo Wings'' and my stomach and hips ''muffin top'' actually makes me feel sick when I look in the mirror when i sit on the bed. :(

Another 4lb off :D All hail to chicken soup! Decided to try them last week. Shakes are still making me heave, so its nice to have a gag free meal. Although I find it hard to finish a full soup, so the Mrs and I share :D Only a couple more weeks of LT then Ill be back on the road to using my...

(((((((((BIG-HUGGZ)))))))))

Sorry it was short and sweet, I was in work, I couldnt think of anything else to write, other than my loss! Im pleased, as Ive managed to get into a size 10 jeans from Soul Cal :) Not so pleased about my boobs being even more non existant than before! :( I guess we cant have everything can we...

-2lb

I lost another 4lbs this week. and have decided, that I will come off LT when I get to 10stn, instead of 9.5 which leaves only 6lb to shift next week :D Have a good weekend everyone xx :flirt2:

Yes, just keep posting lots, you'll be up to 50 in no time. Yes, very small world! My family still live in Oldham/Manchester. Havent been back there for a while. x

Ps, I was born in Oldham (Royal). Where abouts are you in Oldham? :D

To get 'privilages', you have to have 50 posts under your belt (I think). Then you get edit your signature, add tickers, and profile pictures etc. Have a look on the main LT forum, there should be a bit for 'newbies' where you will find a guide on how to get your very own 'ticker' x

Im at the end of week 7.. and the hunger has never gone away... remember, its all mind games. x

Hi, As you know, Im almost at week 8 of TFR. The last 2 weeks have been quite difficult for me. I find drinking the shakes (however I make them) are making me gag, and almost physically sick (I have to think happy thoughts to prevent then from coming back out!) I was wondering, my chemist told...

I dont get it. We put ourselves throught this diet for a reason. Why why why would you want to cheat? It baffles me. We all have cravings, and Im sure im not the only one who can hear those sausages calling my name, but I just couldnt, and wouldnt do it. Whats the point?

I think the more posts you make, the better your reputation and you earn the privilage to add to your profile, and photos etc. When you read someones post, make a comment. I think you have to make 50 posts to be able to add to your profile. x

Wow, thats good to know. Im gonna stick to wine and full English brekkies when I refeed :D Thats amazing hun. Well done. x

Hello, and welcome. Keep up the good work and let us know how you get on. xx

Asda sell the same shakers as the chemist for £3. x

Its that time again folks! My loss this week was 3lb.. I was told last weeks 2lb loss should have been 2.5lb, so I guess that makes a 3.5 loss this week? (confusedmyself.com) :eek: Any ideas as to why I cant seem to lose more than 5lb on a good week, 2lb on a bad week? Will excercise...

Hey, Im a chef, and cook for a living. I havent tasted any of my food for 6 weeks. I came on here and asked advice, and the general response was to avoid even tasting, whcih I have done. If its not affecting your losses, then Id carry on. Im glad I havent, as my losses arent very big :(

another 3.5 off... I guess I aimed a little high on this challenge. Doh!

Yes, that me on the right, Raquel on the left :D

Get yourself to Lidl for fruit and veg. Very reasonable. x

I too spend most of my time watching the Home channel, and any foody programes. Although it makes me drool, I've noticed my food cravings have changed, and I want to eat healthy stuff. I cant wait to come off TFR and eat lovely healthy dishes :)

I'm on week 6, and I have been hungry since day one. Some days Its unbearable. I'm a chef, and have to cook all day, and Can't even taste my food :( It's all in our head. LT gives our bodies enough nutrients etc, so we are not actually hungry, its just our mind playing tricks on us! I hope it...

Hi, ive lost 2lb, 5lb, 5lb, and today another 2lb. x

Hey Peeps... I've lost 2lb this week. It was totm last week, so Im assuming this is the reason for a smaller loss. Im really struggling to drink water, the taste of it, and it feel like such an effort. I am managing to stick to at least 3 litres though. Also the shakes are getting more and...

Does anyone know if they are smiliar to the maintenence caramel bars? Ive tried these, they are very tough to eat, but palletable...

30LB in 4 weeks is amazing. Ive lost 17lb in 4 weeks. We are all different. x

((((((((GROUP HUG))))))))

I was the same for the first week, then became VERY bunged up and uncomfortable. I think its just that we all react differently to the diet. It should settle down. :p

I wouldnt worry about it. I'm the same. I have to take sennokot every night, but I dont always get the ''predictable relief'' every day. Some days I dont go at all, then others I get Mr Whippy and Liquid Nitrogen, and become afraid of my own farts... I think its just all part of being on LT!

Im on week five, and still cant get hold of flap jacks due to packaging issues! Something to do with mould being found on them. Im wondering if this is actually true. It would be nice to be able to chew on something. The shakes are getting worse every day, and now I only have the chocolate one...

Sorry your feeling so crap hun. You need to dose yourself up with Paras, have your shakes/soups and keep drinking as much as you can. I suggest bed rest, or at least get on the sofa with a snuggly blanket, and just veg out. Try and let your body mend itself. x

I lost 2lb on my 2nd week, and was devastated. Knowing that I had been strict, not cheated (why anyone would cheat is beyond me..) I was drinking 5 litres a day, and I just couldnt believe it. I took advice from the girls on here. I dropped my water intake to 3 litres, and Ive had a steady...

2 stone on, over how many weeks? Is that because of refeed? Im worried about refeeding, as I dont want to put stones back on. Surely if you eat sensibly after coming off LT the weight shouldnt come back? *confused*

Ive lost 10lb over the last 2 weeks

Thanks hun. x

Hi Everyone... Week 4 WI and I've lost another 5lb :D Its TOTM too, so Im happy I still had a good loss. Hope you're all doing well. xx

Hey Peeps, Just back from the 'mist, and I've lost 5lb. Im pleased with this, as its almost a stone in 3 weeks.:D Thanks to some advice on here, Ive cut back my water intake to 3litres instead of 5, and Ive stopped using fibreclear, and take sennokot as needed. Hope you're all well. xx

Cardiff-Wales Mardi Gras Fab day, sun stayed out! Didnt go today, as its been piddling down all bloody day. Boooo!

Doh! Ring in sick on Monday, and you can come and share mine :D Have a great weekend anyway. x

Im having between 4 and 5 litres. My partner is having between 5 and 6 litres. (her loss is under mine below) We thought this was really good. Maybe you're right. Should I stick to no more than 4?

I thought Id say have a great weekend guys.:D Im off to Cardiff Mardi Gras this weekend, the first one with not a sip of cider! That will be tough, but I can do it! Im pretty sure ill still be gracing the portaloo's as much I would have :D Thanks for all of your support and encouraging...

Nice one. Makes you think.. although I know its words of wisdom and it makes sense, do you mind If I wallow and be grumpy just for the rest of tonight, and Ill take it on board from tomorrow?! lol ;)

I lost 2lb x

I just wish my pharmaSHISTE was helpful. I dont even know if my medication might affect things. I take symbicort for my asthma (steroid powder inhaler) and Ceritizine pills for my allgeries :/

Just reading on LT website about fibreclear. Its 3 calories per spoonfull, and also says its used for diabetics to boost blood sugar levels? Do you think i should try a week without FC? Thats the only thing Ive done different to last week :eek:

Nice idea about the porridge :) Have anyone else been fed the line regarding flapjacks? My pharmashiste says theres a shortage due to packaging problems! Grrr.

AND she told me theres a problem with getting hold of flap jacks due to packaging issues?? She probably ate them all!!! Horiible old Moose! :kissass:

Im happy to stick at this. It was the chemist that said to me try one more week then come off it if you dont lose much... Ill deffo be doing a full 4 weeks. I think I just had high expectations. I researched LT and seeing how much you guys have lost, I just expected more. I dont want to...

Hi, Im just bacl from the Chemist. I nipped out on my lunch break. *sigh* Well, Ive lost 2lb. I have to say, Im devastated. I cried all the way back to work. I dont understand? I feel worse becasue the woman in the chemist said I must have cheated. I wanted to knock her out. Ive not eaten a...

Please put me out of my misery. I bought some ketostix yesderday. I peed on 3 throughout the day, which all turned purple. Assuming this meant in was in ketosis? Ive just checked now, and it stayed beige. This means Im not in ketosis right? If so, does this mean Im not burning any fat? Ive...

Hey, Day 12 of TFR.. The wife is suffering terribly from acid/heartburn most of the time. Are we allowed to take anything? :confused:

Oh god, pizza! With cheesy garlic bread and an all you can eat salad from Pizza Hut. Yeah baby! Oh ok, Ill just have my chocolate shake instead. *huffs* :)

The best way to make the soup taste half decent is as follows: 1. Take it back to the chemist and swap it for a chocolate shake. 2.Make up the chocolate shake and enjoy. 3. Never get the soup again. Always ask for shakes. Hope this helps :)

I'm on day 12 (I think, so hungry, I cant remember, lol). It seems most people still have the hunger pains and cravings, regardless of how long theyve been at it. You've just got to put it out of your mind and think happy thoughts (not about food though, this does not help!). Its been suggested...

Im having a ***** day/week too. Work sucks as my right arm is on Holiday for two weeks.. I work with a twisted, spiteful, nasty old woman, who makes my life hell... Im ''starving hungry'' and Im craving food all of the time. I came home in a grump, and thought Id weigh myself on the wii fat.. It...

It sucks! Oh the joys of slimming. The things we put ourselves through eh? x

Hey, I was wondering if anyone has had any interference with their 'monthlys'? I think I commented on a thread about this a while ago, but as I am now a victim of unwanted 'gunk' I thought Id start my own thread! I finished my Pods 2 weeks ago and started with the nastiness yesterday...

Lol, Im being a wuss too. Not sure what to aim for, seeing as my first WI was only 5lb. So much for the 'lose a lb a day' !

How much water have you been drinking?

Im up for it. Ill say 20lb

:eek::eek::eek::eek:holy fook- thats fantastic!:eek::eek::eek::eek:

I weighd on my wii fit after I weighed at the chemist, and wii fit showed Id lost 10lb, chemist said 5lb....

Thank you guys :) You are all right. I know its all in my head, but sometimes its all just too much! To make it easier in work, Ive printed off a picture of Grotbags and stuck it to one of the fridges. Not only does it cheer me up and take me right back to my childhood days, watching 80's...

I cant stop thinking about food!. Anything savoury. Mainly cheese, bread, crackers (I could go on, my partner and I compiled a top 10 of things we most want to eat..we stopped at 100 as we were just torturing ourselves!) I work with food all day. At 9am this morning I was making chicken &...

I've ordered some Listerine strips from the US via ebay.

thats great Jane. Where do you buy your lemons? :D x

Hey, I thought Id check in to let you know how Im feeling today. Im still in bed (lazy daisy, lol). Im feeling much better. I woke up around 10am (Id been up every hour for pee breaks). I had my first shake around 11, and Ive not been sick at all. Im feeling very sluggish, and finding it...

she was up at 7am, said she felt a bit sick, but after the first shake, she was fine, so nothing really out of the ordinary for her. Shes been fine all day. Doh

I usually sleep in until around 11 latest, but I can sleep for longer, but my partner always wakes me up! She let me sleep longer today, because since starting LT ive been exhausted, and thought a longer lay in would help. As it happens, I still feel shattered. I wondered if I was suffering from...

You dont think it will mess things up not having any shakes in me for a day? Its when I have a shake that makes me sick :confused: Ill stick to water, as I really cant stand this excorcist style vomitting. x

Ive just been very sick again. Do you think I should just drink water, or try and have my 3rd shake tonight? I really hope its not LT, as this is a bit like a last hope for me.

Hey, I really need some advice urgently! I had a long lay in today (1pm) I woke up feeling very ill, tired and sick. I drank 1 litre of water before my first shake. Halfway through my shake, I became very dizzy, shakey and my heart was beating out of my chest. I wanted to hurl. I went back to...

Lmao! I know that feeling. My partner and I started the same day, so we are both suffering! Even our dogs are giving us funny looks!

Sorry, that probably hasnt helped anyone. But I feel great, because in my mind, Im tucking in right now! Nugget anyone?! (Now theres a joke I could make about my recent toilet trips, but I wont spoil my invisible meal..:D)

I'm on day seven, and Ill I can think about is eating a quarter pounder with cheese meal (Large!) and a box of 20 nuggets with sweet & sour sauce (followed by a sneaky cheese burger) *Drools Homer style*

Shouldnt be the sennokot, unless the poop is coming up the wrong way Ha ha. I get a pain right in the middle of my chest, almost like a stitch, but with a slight crushing sensation. Usually when I move a certain way. Ive had it for months. The quack said it was a pulled muscle..Maybe somones...

Yes, Id done 8 weeks at slimming world.. I lost just over half a stone.. I guess if I think about it, in 9 weeks, Ive lost 12lb. Thats not too bad! :p

I cant wait for the buzz! Thank you!

Cheers Guys, I knew Id get some positive ecouraging words, I really appreciate them. Im just guzzling my last ever strawberry shake. God, they taste rank. Ive got a whole weeks worth of chocolate to keep me going now! :D Yay! I was with Slimming World for 8 weeks, up until Last Weds, and I...

Hey guys, Im just back from the chemist, and Ive lost 5lb. I have mixed feelings about the loss. I would of course liked have lost more than 5lb, especially after seeing how well some people on here have done in their first week. However, I do know that I am now 5lb lighter than I was 7 days...

Hi Jane, Im nipping out on my lunch break for my WI. At about 2.15. I hope Ive lost something, as I dont feel any lighter! Ill keep you posted :D

I dont even know if im in ketosis.My partner started the same time, and shes buzzing around like a dimented fairy on speed. All I can do is grunt and try and hold back the tears. I feel like I could sleep forever :(

Day four was awful, day five was fine, day 6, feeling like poop again. Is it always going to be like this? Sicky, dizzy, SO tired and sluggish. Feeling down in the dumps and feel fat! Booo Hoooo :cry:

Thank you for adding me. My new lipobuddies! xx :D xx

One friend is better than none! I have no friends. Boo! :cry:

Thanks Jane. It wasnt a pretty day for me yesterday.. Im glad its over. How is your 5th day going?

I just wanted to write a quick note to say thanks for all the helpful comments you guys have given me over the last 5 days. I had a crappy 4th day, felt rotten. Today is a much better day. Feeling a lot better, and more alert. Im hoping Ketosis is kicking in. Im VERY nervous about my weigh...

I face-booked 'Lipotrim'. Came accross Minimins on there...;)

''you are son of mongoose!...'' have you seen the outakes and the extras on the website? Oh how I love Alexandra. Simples! :D

Well done, thats really great. I hope my first week is like yours. Im so nervous and worried that I wont lose anything!

Im feeling sick, light headed, dizzy, and generally unwell. I feel like Ive been battered. :cry: Ive been fine for the first 3 days. Today I just want to cry, and I feel like I could sleep for a hundred years :( I'm not enjoying today at all. x

interesting reading.

I need to be careful what I wish for.. The same thing has just happened to me. Thank God I was on the loo at the time. Gross! Also feeling extremely light headed and thought I was going to pass out. Bad times. :(

Lol @ ''no longer trusing farts''. That made me chuckle. I have the opposite problem. My farts wont come out due to being so constipated! I'd kill for a fart like you had right now! (Well, maybe let me find a loo first..)

Hi, Im averaging 4-5 litres per day. I wake up with a sore head, and it just lingers all day.. Feeling quiye crappy today. The worst I've felt since starting on Sat. Feeling extremely tired, sluggish and just plain pooey. :(

Lol :D

Oh god, now I want chicken legs!

Im a bit gutted, as I feel like Ive cheated somewhat, and that my first weigh in wont be a true reading. Im feeling really doubtful in general, and Im dreading the weigh in on Friday. I just SO want this to work :cry:

***mmmm, drools at the thought of sausages**** :D

I've got a stonking headache. I'm on day 4. Had my first shake about an hour ago. I didnt get the sickness feeling this time, as I drank about 2 litres of water before hand. I've got a bad head, and have just taken Paracetomol. Usually I always take ibruprofen, but I just thought, could this...

I think the chemist add on a few extra quid to go towards their Christmas fund or something. The prices should be consistant accross the country. Robbing ******* :D

Hey :) I bought a kenwood 'smoothie 2 go' today. £24 from argos. Its small, and comes with two large cups that you attach the blade to, so it mixes the ice and shakes in that. Then you take off the blade and turn the cup up and drink! It also comes with lids for the cups for travel. Its...

If you lean to the left whilst on the loo, its meant to help ease the discomfort and make you go. Takes a bit of getting used to!

I was told not to drink at all whilst on LT. Ive got two parties this weekend, and Im going to be sipping water at both of them.

Im in Cardiff, and pay £38 a week!

ooh, nice tip, thanks! ;)

Omg, I cant do it! God a headache where Im trying too hard! I gave up and tried connect four.. that pist me off even more. Lol. Damn these silly games! (I dont really mean that)

Lol. First name terms with the ghosts eh? :D Right, let the games commence! (well, not long now til home time!)

Owchy! Im not regular, maybe once a day, or once every 3-4 days. Ill have sennokot tonight ans look forward to 'predictable relief'. Or at least I hope so. I dont hink Id cope with once every 2 weeks. Thats gotta be uncomfortable? :eek:

lol :D

Ive had that happen to me before. Hot liquids in plastic containers with a tight seal dont go together very well. Its like a mini explosion! Hope you didnt get hurt.

Wow that really good. Im nervous about my first weigh in on Friday. Im so desperate to lose weight. Ive been going to slimming world for the last 8 weeks, and lost just over half a stone. The last 3 weeks I stayed the same weight, and was really down in the dumps, as I stuck to the diet...

Yes, I cant manage with two! I almost beat my score this morning, but that bloody pink ghost munched me up! :cry:

I suffer from IBS, and would normally use sennokot. I purchased Ducolax to try, and I found it to be quite 'violent'. Very painful cramps that lasted long after the 'predictable relief'. I thought it was just me! :D

Oh god, I dont fancy that :sigh:

Same here. Day three today. My mind just wouldnt switch off last night. Feeling v tired today and a little sick. x

I wanted check on here, as the chemist said I wasnt allowed to take anything other than fibreclear. Is this just their way of making more money maybe? I just want to get everything right, so I can have a good loss each week. The first 2 days Ive felt fine, the shakes have been ok, but today I...

I couldnt get to sleep last night. I was awake until gone 3am (no, I wasnt playing pacman:D) Feeling quite sick after my first shake :mad: Also desperatley need a number two, but it wont budge. I need to buy some fibreclear today. How long until it works? I have senokot and ducolax in the...

Lol. Im in work til 4pm. I'll try and have a sneaky go if i get time.. if not, then Ill be on there as soon as I get home! :D

Good advice, thank you. I dont have anyone I could appoint as a chief taster really, as I manage the kitchen and oversee all of the cooking, and have to taste most things before they are served :( I also have the job of teaching a trainee chef, which can be very difficult, as she has no idea...

Right, Ive had 2 days on LT. (SAT/SUN) Back to work tomorrow. Im a chef, and obviously need to taste the food I prepare, so's not to serve up rank tasting dishes! Im not talking about consuming large portions, less than a half a teaspoon, if that, just to check for seasoning etc. Now I...

was going to ask the same Q. Does it effect the weight loss when its that time of the month? Anyone?

I wondered if you might be playing it with tired boggle eyes.. like I am! Its hurting my eyes and Im playing like crap coz its late. I know when I close my eyes for sleep later, all Ill see is ghosts chasing me. Arggghhhh!

Lol. Its way to addictive to give up :D

I was trying to get to the top, but my pc froze and I had to log off! Ill try again tomorrow :D

Hi all, With regards to TFR. Its end of day two for me. Do we start losing weight once we get into ketosis, say after 3-4 days, or from day one? Im confused.com :confused:

Yeah, I was thinking that whilst I was shouting at the pc earlier. ''Stupid Pacman!'' Sad really! But I love it. Cant wait for tetris!:D

Hi, Are we allowed peppermint tea? What teas are we not supposed to have? :confused:

I think im just a dimbo! Its frustrating the hell outta me, as i am a genius at ms pacman (but on my phone!) finding it hard to get used to using the arrows on the pc. Pacman forever!

It mustnt like me :cry:

I give up. I get ranked 6th every time and it changes my score! Its a fix! No fair :(

put a spoon of coffee in your vanilla shake. Its much nicer :)

Whoops! My bad. Maybe I should keep some things to myself :D

Let me know what you think. Remember, Its all in the mind.. It really IS a starbucks :D

Lol. Very true! Ive also noticed that my pee has a stong smell of.... sugar puffs! Which also makes me feel hungry every time I go to the loo, which is bloody loads! Arghh!! :D

I dont understand, as my highest score only shows as 16thousand something, but Ive scored over a hundred thousand :cry:

Dau two for me too :D I woke up with a rumbly tummy. I felt ok though. I did some housework and got a little light headed, but I think thats maybe because I hadnt had anything to drink. I had my first shake at 12 o'clock and I feel fine. Got a sickly sweet taste and smell on my breath. Could...

It wasnt quite a starbucks, but I liked it! I think the fact that I served it in a Starbucks cup, I fooled myself into thinking it really was a strawberries and cream ;)

just played a fresh game today, whooped the high score again, and got this message: Your score won't be stored in Database because the Arcade only saves users top score per Game.

good luck today.

Day one yesterday. My partner & I both woke up this morning, and it appeared we both had similar dreams. About FOOD! I dreamed about furious whisking and lush takeaway food. She dreamed about eating a whole box of chocolates until she was sick! Has anyone else experienced food related...

Ive just had my first shake on day 2 of tfr. I dont like the strawberry shakes very much, so I had a little brain wave. I have some starbucks plastic takeaway cups in the cupboard. I mixed vanilla and strawberry, with crushed iced, and served it in the starbucks cup. Hey presto! Instant...

um, browser? would that be internet explorer 8, or something else?

its been fine. My partner is doing it too, so we can help each other. Some hunger pains, but mostly in my head, as I used to have cravings before, as soon as id finished my tea, id be thinking 'whats next' lol. I found the chocolate shake to be the nicest, and also if you add a spoon of...

I started today :) I think the best tip I can give, is whatever questions, doubts, etc, however small, or silly they may seem, just come on here and ask. There are so many people who are here to help you through. Good luck with it. Stay focused :D

Little question, Ive been playing pacman, and whooped the high score, but It doesnt register. It keeps putting me in 6th place! It shows the high score of 58thousand something. I got 168thousand, yet im in 6th place? Is this something to do with privillages? Boo Hoo!:mad:

gotcha! cheers :)

I noticed that a lot of posts that were 'new' this afternoon appear to have renewed themselves to the top of the post queue. Is this something we can do to our posts, or am I going mental?:confused:

Sorry to keep bombarding with what may seem like daft questions, but Im new to this LT malarky and need help :D Ketosis. When do we 'slip into it'? Also, what does it feel like?! How will I know? Oh god, i sound like a proper virgn..lol :8855: Also does anyone else want to cover Bea in honey...

cheers guys. I think i kind of knew this, but the lady at the chemist was a bit special bless her. Dithery and clearly away with the fairies. Wanted to double check, as I NEED to get things right. I NEED to do this!

Another Q: I just wanted to know if its ok to make up shakes before work etc, and just shake them up again when you are ready to consume them? The pharmacy advised you must drink within 15 mins, as the mixture settles and isnt very nice. I would have thought if this was the case, you can...

did you go into a shop to get it free? did you have to buy buy something and got it for free? Looking online and there is nothing offering a free shaker :confused:

I started today. I only got the shakes, as Id heard the soup was awful. Have one for your tea and let us know if it really is that bad!:)

which suggestion did you go with? ;)

I havent tried it, and I havent got any, as the lady at the chemist has done LT and told me to avoid it! Are you allowed to add anything, such as a sprinkle of curry powder? Im guessing not. Maybe mix it with a vanilla shake, cream of chicken. Lol

I cant find them anywhere in Cardiff. Ive been into every shop and chemist today, with no luck. Ive had to order mine from the USA via ebay :eek:

I stocked up a while ago, as Asda were selling the big bottles for £1 each. I bought 10, but not the original, as it tastes rank! Doh!

Thank you. Im guessing the listerine is the original one. Typical that this is the only one I dont have! I asked the chemist when I joined LT yesterday if I could use Listerine, she said yes, or Corsadol? (sp) I guess I should have been more specific and asked which 'flavour' I assumed all would...

Sorry to keep asking dumb questions. Its ok to use listerine mouthwash right? Does it matter which type? Or are all of them ok to use, as I have a cupboard full of all varieties :confused: Also a question or two about LT. Its our first day, 2nd shake. I notice about 5 mins after my shake, I...

Just got back from Asda, all excited, as we found a blender/smoothie maker for £6! Plugged it in ready to try our 2nd shake... and it doesnt bloody work :( Had to mix them by hand, as both starving, and will go back and swap it later. Poo!

great tip Mini. Still feeling rather odd. Headache and a bit wobbly. Im dissapointed, as Ive only had 1 shake. Im a bit worried that Ill feel worse as the week goes on. I was hoping Id be fine and dandy :/ Poo!

After searching high and low, the only place Ive found them, is on the popular auction website (not sure if we are allowed to mention names, but it rhymes with pee-pay, lol) Ive orderd 288 strips, from the US. If anyone finds them anywhere else, please let me know, as I am dreading having...

randomness & rambling. Now there is a good username! (Also my middle names) Thanks for the support, Im pleased I found this site. It was a real bonus to find games on here too :D

Lol, I always find that too. We can never have too many scissors, batteries, candles and mini daim bars! (whoops, well not any more!):)

Measurements all done, have plenty of 'before photos', so Im all set! Both my partner and I have started the diet together, so we will have plenty of motivation for each other. Is it normal to feel quite sick after the first shake? Feeling a little queasy at the moment. Doh!

I chose mine because I love music, particularly indie music, and the rainbow symbolises the gay pride flag :) I also use the name silver.rainbows. This is where my idea for indie.rainbow came from, but 'silver rainbows' is one of my favourite Genesis songs. Hope that answers your question :D...

Ive just had my first shake (day one :)) and i used a bowl and a normal hand whisk. There was very minimal lumps, i think that because im a chef, and ive spent 14 years perfecting my whisking action. lol My partner also started today, she will need a shaker for work, which we forgot to pick up...

Thanks Mini. Ps, Ive just had my first shake, chocolate :) feeling very excited, and cannot wait for next weeks weigh in. Ill be sure to make more posts so i can get privillages, but i dont want to bombard the site with randomness :/

Hi, I had a ticker.. I also wanted a sparkly, which I got from sparklees, but when I pasted it into my signature, it wouldnt let me have both :confused: Now my ticker has gone and I only have a lonely sparkly. Please help :o

Had a mixup with the plan, Im not on TFR (not long back from a real chemist, I've signed up with my parter and start tomorrow :)) I was told over the phone by the online chemist that the items Id ordered were all Id need to get started on LT. This being 1 months suply of LT MAINTENECE...

All sorted! Right, after joining the minimins site, and making a few posts, I realised that I am not doing the correct weightloss plan! I was lead to believe (by a numpty online pharmacy) that the maintence sachets are the same as the shakes! I spoke to a woman who said that these were all i...

How do I add an image to my profile? Also I keep getting this message when trying to do certain things: indie.rainbow, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons: Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you...

Black rose, can you tell me more about the picture on your profile? Im looking to get a tattoo, and i really like this image :)

duh! oh yeh :)

what is tfr?

Thank you. Ive got my first day over with. My partner and I are both doing the same thing, so we can go through it together. We have ordered our LT from an online pharmacy, and have 4 weeks supply. Hoping this will be a kick start to the new 'us' We have a few Q's, which Ive posted on the forum...

can anyone confirm if the chocolate whip is to be made with water, or milk?

Hi, Started LT today. I got my supplies from an online pharmacy. The items i bought: vegetable soup, summer fruits drink, caramel bar & chocolate whip. The summer fruits drink is more like strawberry shake, which wasnt too bad. The veg soup was ok, it gets very thick as it coold down, and...
