Hello everyone :wave_cry: I'm starting CD today (when I've typed this I'm off to have shake #1) and I'm really nervous! :cry: I have done LL, but had to come off it after around 2 weeks, as I couldn't afford it and hated my LLC. However, after every excuse in the book, I have finally took...

Hi all I'm seriously considering changing from LL to CD, mainly for financial reasons. I get on really well with the girls in my LL class, but don't think too much of my LLC....and the two combined make me wonder if CD may be better for me. So my questions are....... I want to SS as I have a...

Ah girls, (and men) - I'm feeling really fed up. Today is day 11. I started on Sunday 5th Aug, and lost 8lbs from the Sun - the Wed, which is my WI night. I then had a pop in on Saturday, and had lost another 4lbs. Great I thought!:D So I go along to my class tonight, hop on the scales...

Oh sending you the biggest hug ever :grouphugg:. We do these crazy things to ourselves don't we? I bet your WI tonight will show a loss. It was one ladle - it could have been one family sized bar of chocolate! You knew when to stop and you knew you made a tiny weeny blip. Put it behind you - I...

:wow::wow::wow: WELL DONE! That's a great amount! It sure is a good plan isn't it :)

Hello..... I've been posting on Minimins for a week or so now, but have only just seen this forum! A quick intro from me - my name is Sarah, I'm 35, and live in Blackpool with my hubby and 2 kids. I'm on lighterlife at the mo (new to it!) and so far so good. I want to lose 8 stones -...

After 6 days... I'm going to keep this as my personal diary on here, so please don't feel you have to comment, lol....... Pop in today and changed some shakes and bars over - and have lost another 4lbs. So that makes 12lbs in 6 days :wow::).

LOL :D So come on then, enlighten us, what CAN you have to stop your shorts falling down even more? :rolleyes: :eat: PS - Well done on the weight loss

Oops, just noticed this :o I'm Sarah, 35, and am Mum to 2 boys aged 11 and 3. We live in sunny Blackpool, in Lancashire. I have now started LL, and lost 8lbs in my first 4 days on the plan. I'm not sure what my goal is, but I think I'd like to lose between 8 and 10 stones :eek: :eek: :eek...

What a wonderfully inspiring post! Have fun trying to find your SMALL or MEDIUM shorts :). Oh and I hope you are okay re-introducing food into your plan! How much have you lost, if you don't mind me asking? I couldn't work it out from your graph (bit dim at times :crazy: me!)

Oh and I haven't tried the water flavourings either - so not those :)

Thanks to you all for your replies. Until last night I'd not tried the bars, so it's definately not those. I think it could be 'cos I only make them with 200ml of water (and some ice) - I'll try upping that to 250-300mls and seeing if it helps. Funnily enough I have noticed it's the chocolate...

I can't PM you DQ, so was just wondering why it's taking so long? Was it you that had problems with your Dr? I'm pretty sure it was. Hope the next few weeks pass quickly for you

:o I keep reading about people who are constipated on LL, but I'm a tad concerned that things seem to be very much the other way :o Is it just my body adjusting? Or is it not usually a problem on LL? :o Thanks:ashamed0005:

Wow, a HUGE well done to you. You'll look stunning on your wedding day - I bet you can't wait to show yourself off to everyone :party0048:

Big well done to you :party0011: that's a great loss! Keep up the good work - you'll be at your target before you know it :):queen:.

Hi Sandra Just wanted to say :wavey: to you from me too. I only started on Sunday, and after weigh in last night, had lost 8lbs. What motivation that is to keep going! Look forward to hearing how you (and your daughter) go on the journey to a new you. Ttfn :bliss:

Thanks all - it's a fab feeling. The other ladies in my group are lovely too - we're all getting along so well, and they're doing fab too. My counsellor isn't fab tho - last night she only really spoke to us properly for about 20 mins, the rest of it was us chatting between ourselves and so...

Well tonight was class night, and my first official weigh in. I only started LL on Sunday, so wasn't expecting a large amount of weight gone. I lost 8lbs :eek: I'm one happy lady! I am in ketosis as my stick was the right colour, so I hope I'm rockin' and rollin' now! Off to my bed now -...

Just had a thought, does anyone here use MSN? Would be fab to have some MSN LL buddies.

Hi Sun - so far so good................it's going to be a long road, but I'm feeling pretty determined now. My only problem is drinking more than 4 litres of water a day.....hoping it's enough. I have my WI tomorrow night (my class night) so we'll see how I've done for the first few days...

WOW Lollypop I am veeeeeeeeery impressed! Well done you :party0011::party0011: I bet you're very proud of you for sticking with it! I have my WI tomorrow night, although have only been on LL since Sunday......so not sure what mine will be like! Hope I see some change though :innocent0002: :wavey:

Oh how I feel for you. I was exasperated last week when I thought I was going to be able to start, then couldn't as my Dr's dilly-dallied about filling in the forms. They did do them for me though. Just thought I would pass on what 2 ladies in my group did though - one went to BUPA and paid...

Thank you all for your lovely words. I was on a MEGA downer last night, and have come round a bit more now. Last night the thai chilli went down the sink after about a third of it, I didn't like it at all. But I "cooked" a chicken soup one into a thing - lol - it was meant to be a poppadom but...

Sorry to be so negative on Day 1, but I have not liked anything I have eaten today! I have had a raspberry shake - it was ok, but I certainly don't relish the thought of another. Banana shake I had as custard, same as before, was quite ok, but don't relish anymore! As for the thai soup I have...

Hi Tracey It's lighter life. Which plan are you following? I'm just eating my banana milkshake with boiling water as a custard, and I can actually say it's yummy! Phew! GOOD LUCK with your plan :)

Just had first shake! Well, I have now started. I have just finished my first shake - and it wasn't tooooooo bad :sigh: - I Had Raspberry which I understand is one of the nicer ones?! The only error I made was my water wasn't really ice cold, and I detest non ice cold milk - so I have quickly...

I think what I was a bit annoyed about was my friends' counsellor lets them join and as long as their med. forms are in by the following week, will let them weigh in. Never mind. I'll go tonight I think, get it all out of the way, and like you say, use the time 'til the forms are back, wisely...

Thank you all for your replies :) I don't know what my GP is going to charge - I asked at reception and was told it will be between £16 and £35 :mad: but I have to have it so no point being too mad! Argh, am feeling cross now - I just contacted the counsellor about me not having the forms...

Hello :) I have just got back from the Dr's who has agreed to sign my form, although I have to go back next week to collect it as she's busy! She halfheartedly listened to my heart, said she'd check BP then realised I'd had it done recently (4 mos ago!) and waved me on my way. A bit...
