Hi how was the carbonara?! I hate it but found it a bit more bareable adding a nice amount of chilli flakes. And cooking longer than pkt says.

Porridge & carbonara help...! Thanks guys! Don't know how u do the biscuits but will give it a shot, need to get cinnamon fast lol!x

I enjoy the soups but they are way too thick so i split them in half and make a mug full each time...like drinking a cup a soup!! Good luck !

Porridge & carbonara help...! Thanks guys I will give that ok. Sounds quite appealing now!! Im sure my tastes will change in a couple days!

Hi all, this is my 1st day on exante, did well last year on this and after my daughter was born i lost 4 stone on lipotrim. Yes its all back on:( I need this to work this time. So I bought the deal box with a mixture but honestly i was almost crying trying to eat the porridge and pasta today...

Hi Scotsmist, well done for your loss thats brilliant! You will do well, look what we have all managed in the last few months, if we can do that anything is possible lol! Keeping busy is the best way forward, detract from boardem and the desire to eat! Good luck for next week!:)

Hi all, Well my loss has been going great and everyone amazed with how I look now, but a few have commented on how pale I am looking and the red under my eyes are kinda white too! My hair is starting to come out...trying to not get too worried as I lost quite a bit a few months ago from...

Gosh well I have been without interrnet for 3 weeks and come back on here to find the regulars gone lol! All on refeed by looks phew, glad everyone doing well. I am on 2nd week, going ok but having the occasional treat which doesnt seem to be doing any harm. Still feel guilty for eating, even if...

Thanks guys, you have made me feel better! I hope it will come off by wed for weigh in or I will be in trouble lol! once I get this day out the way I should be ok. Cant believe I dont really like biscuits anymore lol I want to keep it that way.!

I am so angry. I have been doing this for almost 11 weeks now and done brilliant, having only inteded to stick at this for a max of 5 weeks. Well.... I finally have a new home for my baby and I, it was a mad rush weekend, involving decorating a whole apartment and getting carpets down. 1st...

Glad it has got better. Don't worry too much I had it around week 3 and then last week for a whole week but ok again now. No idea why it is. Think of the calories burned running up those stairs lol!!

Best of luck.

p.s- congrats on being a Grandma too!

You look bloody amazing and super slim already. God I hope you feel better soon poor thing.

Amazing for sticking to it 100%, take it easy and speedy recovery.

Lisa avoid the carbs if I were you and esp the steak-red meat is harder to digest. I had a weekend where I drank- never my intention I only thought I could manage thhis for a max 6weeks but as the date got nearer I wanted to continue but I had my friends wedding and my Birthday. I had a...

Good luck and don't go worrying, 2 days wont hurt too much as long as can get back on it when you are fully recovered.:D

Wow you look amazing! Bloody well done you! :D

Hi Steve, give it a couple of days you will adjust. Make the shakes with really cold water, or if you have a blender put a few cubes of ice in, it makes it a bit blander that way I found with aprox 300-400ml of water.

yep yep I did! wuhoo!

Polly you have lost alot already, celebrate that. I bet your weigh in may not have been as bad as you espected. Go when you next can, dont worry about it for the next week. Keep going!

Welcome back Bells, good luck this month. x

You should be really please, you have made it through the toughest week. I felt like that with my 1st weigh in then the following week I lost even more...your loss may well be similar. Keep going you will be amazed how fast the weight will come off.:)

Amazing, well done!

Good luck and well done!

Whoop Whoop! Well done you. :D

Hi Bells, I want to aim for 16lbs Thanks:D

Don't be down about it, some may just be envious and not want to compliment you. You have lost loads, be proud of what you have accomplished so far your doing great. I bet a couple extra lbs they will all be noticing!!!:D

I understand how hard it is, but you must stick to the plan. You cannot eat, if you are struggling why don't you try cambridge diet where you can have a low cal meal in evening? If you feel hungry, drink more water, or when I feel a bit low I have a sweet black coffee with sweetner...does the...

Yeh I reckon you will be in that dress looking amazing. As long as you stick to it, drink plenty you should get off 4 -5 stone if not a bit more. Good luck.:D

Cant believe lost 2lbs even though had a 3 course meal and severall gin and tonics sunday at the wedding! wuhoo! Aim for 5 more weeks before re-feed.

Well done you look amazing. Good luck on refeed.:D

Thank you, totaly dreading mine :cry:

Brilliant!

Thank you everyone. Well it went well until the evening then I ate like a pig, I am so cross with myself and hate how bloated I feel. Tomo is another day back on it,at least I looked good in my slimmer me outfit!! No more set backs, keep going until end of march then I need to eat adn sort out...

Hi all, Today is my friends wedding and I have a 3 course meal to eat...my first in 6 weeks. I feel all the good work will be undone and am nervous how I will feel after incase I get the urge to eat. My plan is to get back on the shakes tomo. On the plus side it is my Birthday today too...

Well done that is excellent. I felt like you in the first week I was disappointed to lose 6lbs but the following I lost 7, so you may get a similar amount next week and thats a stone gone pretty much! Keep going!

wuhoo 6lbs off for me!

Thank you, hope its at least 4lbs, disappointed I didnt get a work out in but been a crappy day!

Hang on in there, I bet you will be suprised. If you weigh everyday your weight will fluctuate, don't do that it will only dishearten you. Good luck for wed, you will have lost!

Brilliant well done you.! :D

I think its a good idea, better then falling off the wagon. My friend used to be a consutant for CD, her and Husband lost loads on it and could eat!!! You will have a lot more variety and won't be feeling like you are now. Jade.x:D

Well done Jon, you have such determination I admire that. Please keep coming on here we need your wisdom! Not heard of the new programme, my pharmacist has a new one starting called target slim-sounds like cambridge to me though. Good luck and well done for such an amazing loss. Jade.x

Wow what a difference, you look great. If you will feel happier in yourself for a couple of weeks to refeed then do it. You are not giving in, just looking at an alternative whilst still losing weight the right way. Good luck.

Oooh sounds good. Good for you.:D

What a fantastic post, you really are an inspiration to us. You seem very level headed with this all now, I think you need to give yourself even more credit you will definately succeed. Well done you!

Thanks John, I was the same as Emmievic I couldnt cope but I feel really happy now and back on track. I have no intention of eating muffins when I am at goal I just needed an alternative. Really appreciate the advise tho. x

Oooo that sounds nice Cathy!

Yeh I'm the same, it was more like a dumpling really lol! ..but was a nice change. Been feeling down for a couple days but feel much happier now, so that will be classed as my treat now and then!

I didn't cheat! I was getting a wee bit bored today so I tried something different with my choc shake and made it into a muffin, it didnt taste overly sweet but was so nice to sit with a plate and eat my lil muffin! Ah feel happy now! Just in case you wanted to know what I did.... 1...

Well done that is brilliant and in just 5 days!

You have done the hardest bit, dont give in now or even think that you will! Wait until Monday, I promise you when you see how much weight you have lost in your 1st week you will be feeling great and totally motivated to continue. Stick at it hun.:D

You have done brilliantly so far, it would be ashame if anything happened and you may cave in through hunger (not saying you would mind). You would do no harm to switch now to maintenance you will still easily lose 2-3lbs if not more each week and enjoy 1 healthy low carb meal. Good luck...

Don't worry! I did that the 1st day without thinking, made my friends little boy toast with nutella spread and licked my finger as I got chocolate over it! I was traumatised but it did nothing! Will take a few days for you to adjust. Good luck!

Cheers guys. I try not to always leave the room as I dont want to have issues with food...I got to be stronger than that but maybe I should for a while!! Will need to start introducing food to my daughter in the next week or so...that will be hard been looking at the jars...root veg and apple...

We will be on there soon!

Oh my god! What a difference...really is inspiring. Cheers Aaron.

Hi all, I had to come on here to let off steam. Had to watch everyone eat a cooked breakfast for their tea...they have seen how well I am doing and decided to do the atkins diet. My sense of smell has hightened so much since being on LT it made it really hard to sit and watch them eat...

Well done, not long to go!:D

Well done that is amazing! Always a nice suprise when something you think may not quite fit and it does! So looking forward to fiting comfortably in my 16's again without the muffin top lol! Well done, 14's in no time! :D:D

Ah poor thing, I hope you fell better soon. Don't worry about the diet, you are doing so well you well get straight back on it when you are fully recovered. Your health is far more important. Good luck.

Good luck! Once you get past day 3 you will be feeling great. Remember drink, drink, drink lots of water! :)

Oooh sounds lush! good luck, fantastic weight loss.:)

Cheers guys! I think the fact they picked boring flavours helped immensly lol!

Thanks Guys.!

Thats brilliant! If you can get through that, you can get through anything!

You have done so well. Not long to go now.:D

So pleased, lost another 5lbs and had a hen party to go to this week, I didnt eat pizza or drink alcahol so proud of myself! Hope I can keep this pace up so I can get into my lovely outfit for their wedding in 3 1/2 weeks! :D:D:D

Hi. I tried it and it did work, just not fast enough for me plus I couldnt get my head around the fact you could eat as much carbs on a green day as you wanted. Good luck.

Thats a great loss, well done. Good luck on C.D -out of curiosity, seeing you are switching did the consultant say you will come out of ketosis? :D

So glad you got through the tough part, its not worth feeling angry with yourself and inpain if you eat. You have done so well, enjoy your pampering night and hope the pain eases soon.

Thanks I thought as much, will see how I get on I'm not bald yet lol!

Hi Guys, I wonder if any of you know if you can take vitamins whilst on L.T? I am losing my hair and in a bit of a panic! Not through this from having a baby recently, however I would like to take something if poss but unsure if would effect ketosis?

7lbs lost this week wuhoooooooooooooooooo!

Hi Sharron, You are doing really well, it is really cold at the moment I know. Im always on the move with a baby so I guess I'm not feeling the cold! But you are doing a good thing drinking plenty of warm water. You have had a fantastic loss, persevere if you can , it will so be worth it...

Thanks guys, fingers crossed I loved lost a similar amount (dreading a hen w.end next week with stick insects lol!) Good luck to the others:D

Don't do it! We all feel like that, I'm dreaming about food! You have done so well so far and done the hardest bit, its your weigh in on thurs, wait until you see what great results you have achieved. Go and have a sweet black tea or coffee-it helps me when I feel a bit weak! Good luck.

That is fantastic! Well done you, keep up the good work.:D

Thanks Binge Eater. I am worried about coming out of ketosis as I have a wedding to go to in 6 weeks and my meal has been ordered. I cant sit there and have nothing it looks rude for one. Will cross that bridge when I get to it I guess. Another day done wuhoo!!

I'm Wednesday :-)

Thanks everyone. Feel much more positive, another day done! Keep up the good work!

Thanks guys, i'm finding it hard too as I have a 4 month old girl, who is very good but starting to teeth and i'm drained with that let alone no decent grub!!! I wont cave in, thank God I can moan to you all and you understand! Thank you.

11 days in and having an off day. Everywhere I have been today has had so many smells of lush food, roast dinners, fish and chips, icecream ohhhhh. Feel like caving in, even just for a piece of dry chicken! Don't know how long I can last, no amount of water is making me feel any better:cry:

yep, me too today I felt fantastic , but this evening I feel really really sad. I don't think I'm hungry, my 4 month old pretty good so cant blame her, must be LT!

Hi, Im not 100% sure but my Cousin did this diet and lost 5 stone, she did say usually around week 3 you get the urgency for the loo so to speak and she had pains for a bit. Peppermint tea will help with digestive system, drink warm water not cold. Good luck, you have done so well.

Thanks everyone feel much better. Its that I have soooo much to lose 5 stone at least that it seems like a milestone! I'm trying to up my water intake now from 2ltrs-3 .

Oh my God that has made me soooooo hungry! Nice glass of water is in need! :cry:

I feel a bit disappointed only lost 6lbs, wonder what happened? Followed it to a "T", I'm on TFR. On the plus side I lost 2" from waist and 1" from hips. Hope next week is better.:wave_cry:

Don't give up you have done so well. I am on day 4 also and almost crying at the thought of having to watch my folks eat roast chicken followed by chocolates it seems. I feel a little hungry with all these amazing smells coming from the cooker but pleased I have managed this far! :cry:

Hi Everyone, I am new to this and this is my 2nd day on Lipotrim, I have a very long way to go but feel quite positive today...if not a little hungry too! Good luck everyone! :)
