    Susie's 2022 campaign

    Well done on your 2020 action plan, it's certainly helping you lose weight. Are you using an app to track calories? I tried MFP but it kept telling me I wasn't eating enough and like you said, having more calories to eat encourages you to eat the wrong things.

    V' diary

    the thing I've found is that I put weight on after any diet. In fact I've been trying to eat healthy, take more exercise and count calories for the past 20 years. And in that time I've put on 10 stone! So if Lipotrim gives you a new approach, who's to say in wont be a long term solution for you?

    extra fertile when on a vlcd???

    Hi Sam, don't worry about the 3lb, i'm sure its just a daily fluctuantion and not the effect of the turkey. As you just had lean meat it shouldn't have brought you out of ketosis and the calorie content can't have been big enough to have an effect. I'm sure you'll find that in a few days...

    Thanks for reply Mark. I'm trying to take dog for more walks at the moment (instead of forcing kids to do it) but apart from that I've not done much more because my pharmacist said not to do much more. However I was thinking about joining the gym to do some toning exercise as I dont want to be...

    Night out tomorrow...advice please!!

    Just be aware that the drink will affect you a lot quicker than normal. Pre LT I regualry drank 4 or 5 doubles on a Wednesday night without any adverse effects (apart from the weight gain of course). Last week I had one, and boy did I know it. I actually considered phoning in sick I felt that...

    need a little help from your (lt) friends

    when ever I'm struggling at night time, I go upstairs and try on clothes that are just a bit too small for me! I have also hung a dress that i'm looking forward to wearing in the next couple of weeks on the outside of my wardrobe. I've taken a photo of it and use it as wallpaper on my phone

    Week 9 break under 40 BMI

    Sorry, I meant you'd crossed from the 300's into the 200's! Mind you, you're well inot the 200's now so you prob knew that. Its a milestone I hit last week and just knowing I was less than 300lb for the first time in 2 years has carried me through this week! Jane

    Tricky Third Week

    Had a really good day yesterday! Hubby and I went for a walk round Cheshire Oaks (retail village). Normally I only go in the shops selling handbags or the kitchenwear shops! Yesterday I ventured into Monsoon and tried on some size 22 clothes (I'm usually a 26/28) and they very nearly...

    Hi Sam! Good luck for tomorrow! Thanks for words of encouragement. Going out with mum now to local garden centre while the sun is shinning. Feel confident in avoiding cake.

    Hi Smurfette, guess you work in a school, like me! I've been having a bit of a rant about how its always someone's birthday at my place. :candle1: When it is they bring cakes/biscuits choccies etc to share with everyone. And when its not someone's birthday, they'll find any other excuse...my...

    Tricky Third Week

    Why is it always someones birthday and why do they have to bring cakes for everyone! Had a good day so far. Was worried that after having a drink on wednesday night, i'd be out of ketosis and back to day 1 and have to go through those miserable couple of days waiting for hunger pangs to subside...

    Well, thats another 3lb off!! :o 19lb in three weeks and tricky third weekly almost successfully completed (more of that later) Have to be honest and say I was hoping for 4, but with it being TOTM and all, 3's good enough. Plus had little slip up last night. My hubby and I usually go out...

    :oHi Sci-fi. I see from your tracker that you've lost 4lb on your second week. Well done thats fantastic and well worth the hard work to get through the bad days. I've been trying on clothes that I've got stuffed in back of wardrobe and not worn for over a year. The fact that I can wear some...

    Tricky Third Week

    Weekend over and back to work today. Sunday's are always a problem for me because, since my dad died last August, I spend the day with my mum. Usually we go out for a drive somewhere, which generally involves stopping for a coffee and cake. Then she comes back to our house and I cook a roast...

    TOTM how did everyone manage

    Awww. :hug99: Don't be so hard on yourself. Just think how much more you're going to enjoy yourself once you've lost this weight and by using LT you'll get there a lot quicker. You can ease your guilt about not going out by saving the money you might have spent on the meal. Do that every time...

    Im Starting Lipotrim on Monday and would like ur ideas....

    Hi Elf. They're really good things to say to people to deflect attention away from the fact you're not eating. I've only told my sister-in-law and my hubby that I'm on this diet as I dont want all the negative comments you get when people know. I'll use some of them. Thanks Hope you're...

    TOTM how did everyone manage

    Hi Juile. i'm at my TOTM this weekend. Not having the problems that you did with bloating, but I've had terrible PMT. Its something I don't normally suffer from, but at the moment every one is driving me MAD! :flamingmad: Think its the fact that I've had to turn down breakfast in bed and not...

    Should I do it?

    I'd second yummymummy's thoughts. I'm nearly three weeks into LT abd find in both easy in some respects and hard in others. Its easy because you're not consntantly thinking about what you're going to eat; the weight loss is quick to start with; hunger pangs dissapear after the first few days and...

    Well done for ignoring those voices in the shop! I went to do the weekly supermarket shop for the family today, and the smell of bread nearly floored me:eating:. But I managed to resist.

    Hi Amanda. Good luck, the amount of shakes you've bought seems to indicate that you are committed to the diet. Well done. Just think by the time you've finished them you could be over a stone lighter. I'd hold on to that thought to get you through the first week.
