I'd agree with the idea of having sparkling water. I get one from Lidl which comes from Loningen and apart from being cheap (26p for 1.5 ltr) it is very sparkling and has a more biting taste than others that I've tried. Never tried any flavouring in water but hardly likely to put you out of...

I'm with you Mellywade. I think that if its planned and sensible then a short break is ok. As for it being only one Christmas, its a bloody long time till the next (tho it seems to come around quicker) and you never know what may happen. I'm planning to go to a Atkins type diet over Christmas...

Hi Hannah Well done girl. You are an inspiration to us all. Hope you are going to post lots of pictures in your party dresses. Don't forget us all. ;) John x

Brilliant loss and fingers crossed for your check up. I seem to get up more during the night to have a pee as I drink so much water. I used to snore a lot accoding to the ex-wife but now I live on my own I have either stopped snoring or the neighbours are deep sleepers. Good luck Tomcon and...

I wore my jeans to work today as we had a messy job to do. Whilst walking down the corridor my jeans fell down.. How brilliant was that. May be loosing weight but must remember to buy a tighter belt or I will be getting arrested for indecent exposure. Trying not to buy anything new as yet but...

Hi Jo Yes, but is it practical? Only joking, its really nice though the colour wouldnt suit me. John x

Cheers RoakMan You will be missed John

Hi Do they do thermal Long Johns in 36" inside leg??? John

Hoots Mon theres a Mousse in the housse Hi All Yesterday I tried both Choc and Strawberry as a Moose and thought both very nice. Sort of halfway between Cookie Dough and a Mousse. More seems to stick to the blender than goes into the glass though. Don't think I'll be trying this with the...

Hi BB As a man I can say that women are just as bad. As for work, I'm still here (its 8.26pm) and will be for another hour and will be back before 7 in the morning. Good job we men can multi task, overseeing the lights of the nation (well Hull) and keeping you girls in check. After dealing...

Hi Betsy Thats brilliant and looking at your Ticker you are exactly halfway to your target. Sorry to read about your Gran and glad she is on the mend. Your mention of her joking and the panic button reminded me of an old 'Not the 9 o'clock News' joke. You give your elderly relative a panic...

Now I'm not an Chemistry or Biology Graduate so I don't know the answer, but my question is 'has anybody any proof that breath spray causes you to come out of Ketosis??' My Pharmacist told me not to take Glucosamine for a painful knee as it may put me out of Ketosis. Is Ketosis that fickle...

Hi Jon I certainly hear what you are saying and whilst being of good intentions feel that I will need a serious talking to when I finish dieting. The mental process relating to eating sensibly is probably alien to me and I suspect many on this site who have found the need to diet several...

I feel like a woman too, but where do you find a good one? John

Hi RoakMan, Irish Molly, Winky & Akra The comments a few have made about having a TFR diet because of previous mental attitude to food is probably very close to descibing my mental state. Perhaps better to go without rather than eat then gradually slip down the carb route. I don't intend to...

Agree there Hannah ;)

Hi Vanda I'm not intending to eat again till just before Christmas and then will try to avoid carbs like the plague. When you think what you loose on Lipotrim and the speed of it, I'd hate to slow down and prolong the process any longer than necessary. I've only had food once in six weeks and...

Wow Suzy Thats really impressive. Perhaps the Queen ought to send a telegram when you reach 100. Just think how long you would have to do Slimming World or Weight Watchers for to loose that amount. Cheers John

When you think what crisp manufactures do with a few chemical powders, don't you think it’s a poor show that Lipotrim can only come up with 3 shake flavours and a pathetic attempt at Chicken soup?? How about a vegetable or beef soup and some more exotic shake variants. Banana shakes and...

Hi Hannah I was not ignoring the psychological impact of eating but mearly tossing around the question of how our ketosis differs from an Atkins type one, and against 'wanting' to eat for a day, there may be a time when you feel obliged to eat ie. a Wedding, and want to minimise the damage. I...

A Question. When doing the Lipotrim diet your body goes in Ketosis. When on the Atkins diet your body goes into Ketosis. Therefore when doing Lipotrim if you wanted to eat for one day could you not eat as per Atkins??? Your thoughts please Ladies and Gents John

Hi Jenny Congrats for tomorrow. If you must eat have a read of the re-feeding guide and go for a high protein low card option. A grilled fish and salad would be good. Well it sounds good to me. Above all enjoy the day and suggest to your friends they buy some vouchers for your favorite...

[hoolie - ha ha .. same thing happened to me... i tried doing it in the car (with bottle and sachet) and got the powder everywhere....] Me too. Centre console of my car looks as if I had thrown a satchet over it. That was a month ago but car valeting is not a high priority.

This is brilliant news Tafflass. If my son had'nt left Ponty for sunny Nottingham I would have had him giving you a hand to move. Good luck and invite all us thin people to the house warming. Take care John

Hi I left a message on another thread yesterday about Peppermint tea. My Pharmacist suggested having Peppermint tea with a sweetner in as it can be a little bitter. I belive that sweetners are ok on the diet. In normal tea I don't take them but it helps with the Peppermint. Also dont leave the...

The bonus of using Corsodyl is that what ever you tastle is like sucking Tin. There ought to be a Corsodyl Diet. Gargle twice a day and its not worth eating as everything tastes horrible. Been and checked teeth. I'd say no change but I do drink loads of black tea and coffee.:D My Pharmacist...

I'm sure everyone on here feels for you and wish that things take a turn for the better. I worry what you will do when the weather takes a turn for the worst. Summer only officially finished yesterday. I think its so wrong that the utilities have not passed on the gas price cuts. I work for a...

Hi Debz. It's difficult to seperate the hunger from the want. Strangly I seem to want things that I would not have bothered with before so hopefully there is something changing in my head. For the better or not is still open to discussion. Good luck with your endeavors and if you are like me...

Why When I read whats 'wrong' with your fellas it makes me sound perfect... lol Makes me wonder why the ex divorced me!

Thanks Jenny Well done to you too. Like yourself I've done other diets before and the speed of Lipotrim certainly helps keep you going. On Slimming World a loss of 13lb would be a very good result for 6 weeks or so. Its nice to think it will all be over so much sooner. Take care John x

Week4 3rd WI Hi All Been on Lipotrim for 4 weeks now but due to holidays I had my 3rd Weigh In on Saturday. The result being another 13lb loss (over 2 weeks) and me beaming like a Cheshire Cat for the rest of the day. Making a total loss of 2st 11lb in 4 weeks it makes the...

Hi Tafflass 36” inside leg in heels! The thought hurts……… What a nice treat to yourself the picture will be… Have a look at the web site for a company called Venture Photography. They take portraits but with a really funky view. There is a branch at Swansea and I...

Off the shelf Hi again Tafflass Congratulations on the continued success. I can see you being mistaken for Bridgett Neilson soon. Being male, I’ve always thought that you girls had the clothing situation pretty well covered. The range of sizes seems huge (if you forgive the pun)...

Hi fellow Lipotrimmers. Just had my second week Weigh In and the result was a 10lb loss. You can imagine the grin on my face. The loss of 1stone 12lb in 2 weeks is very welcome and makes the lack of food (almost) bearable. I can say that I’ve not been hungry doing Lipotrim but...

Hi Bigbloke Hi Bigbloke Well done on that loss. I didn’t know what sort of loss to expect after week 1 so if I can copy you I will be very very happy. Going for 2nd Weigh In on Saturday so I will be quite eager to get on the scales. After that I will have a 2week break...

Ohhps. Sorry, that should have been 'Tafflass'. Obviously Lipotrim doesn't improve short term memory loss! John

1st week over Hi All. Well on Saturday morning I went and weighed in at the Pharmacy and was really pleased with the result. I lost 1stone 2lbs so excuse me if I seem a little smug. I'm still wanting food but not really hungry, so think this is a mental thing. Thank you Taffgirl for the...

MiniMin Virgin Hi All This is my first post having only just joined the MiniMin fraternity. I started on the Lipotrim last Saturday and quite looking forward to the weigh in tomorrow. I have tried several diets over the last few years and so far have managed to gain about 8 stone! I'm hoping...
