For the first time in my life I have been on plan 100% - I have usually caved in by now! I have lost 15lb since last Wednesday and it is such good motivation to keep going. Hoping to loose a few stone by the summer holidays!

Do you have the mushroom stuff over the burgers or separate? Sounds lovely :) How much cream are we allowed a day??

Every day I have two scrambled eggs for breakfast (no milk) cooked in the microwave as I'm always in a rush! Lunch is usually a chicken salad and dinner I have had salmon with salad and boiled eggs, yuk sung (delicious!), pork chops with cabbage and on Saturday I even had steak, egg and...

I will have to try them, do the chocolate ones taste like real chocolate or is that too much to ask lol

Can anyone explain why doing a low fat version of Atkins would slow weight loss? I have been trying to do this.. Cutting off the fat etc as I thought it would be better for you??

I've never tried these, are they nice?

Started on Wednesday and lost 10lb so far.. Really impressed and hoping to stick to it as I have a lot to loose :)

Your pictures are really inspirational! I even had to go back and forth between the two pics because you look do different! I have a similar amount of weight to loose, but I was wondering (and I hope this isn't a really rude thing to ask!) but with such rapid weight loss, have you been left with...

Tried these yesterday, they were actually okay. Not going to lie and say they were delicious, but every now and then if u wanted a meal or something (I ate mine at the table while the rest of my family ate pizza and chips!) they are good! I had them with boulion :)

Hi all, Managed to stay on track today by the skin of my teeth. Made the mistake of going with my fiancée and grandmother to a local warehouse which has a farm shop attached. Never been before so thought it would be your typical meat/veg shop and wasn't that concerned. Well they had...

Just had one of these, quite nice could eat another one lol

I'm on day 12 and I bought a bumper pack. Tbh I don't like any of them lol but for me the best ones are the bars and soups, I drink the shakes in one mouthful I find them horrible and I've just refused to eat the mushroom soup! But the bars are okay and I don't mind the veg and tomato soups...

Wow I didn't mind them, hated the mushroom though. Don't like the Thai chicken much either, tomato an veg are my fav.

Yes kind of like that and from what I have read you can have 2 mugs a day (1tsp in each which is plenty)

It sounds horrid when described lol! It's a vegetable stock basically in a powder form like gravy. Very yum! Comes in normal and reduced salt version, but I've only tried the normal.

Birmingham here :)

It really does, no hunger and more energy!

Just bought some today, have to say I was dreading it and expecting it to taste exactly like a veg soup but -YUM! It was really nice! Just wondering if anyone else drinks it regularly? I am concerned about it knocking me out of ketosis.

I really wish we could just take a pill as I find all the soups shakes and bars a chore - forcing them down! But it works and works quickly and I just try and keep that in mind. I am tired of food controlling my life!! It is my every waking thought pretty much (well especially at the weekend)...

To be honest I tell as few people as possible and those I do tell I just let them know its the only thing that works for me, I'm giving it a shot and I will regret not trying it more. Tell him it's fine he doesn't understand, but you would really appreciate his support and understanding, if he...

Anyone else use this? I find it a real inspiration so thought I would share for others who haven't yet seen it! Welcome - My Body Gallery - What Real Women Look Like

1) To get my PCOS under control before I do permanent damage and can't have kids. 2) To look nice at a family wedding on the last week of July (aiming for 4/5 stone??) 3) To not feel embarrassed all the time, like people are judging me! 4) To be able to do more things, always wanted to do...

Does this mean we can have other bars instead of exante ones?

Thanks bought some today along with some dulce gusto coffee pods (the plain coffee ones) as a treat for the evening

Thanks, every time I eat one I wonder how they can be eaten and not knock you out of ketosis with the oats in them?

I bought one of these but haven't tried it yet, bit nervous about cooking it wrong!

Is that the case with exante bars? I have been having a shake, bar and soup each day (day 5 now) and I don't feel like I'm in ketosis yet as I'm still hungry and getting headaches.

Tomato is one of the better ones for me, I nearly puked drinking the mushroom one. Also hate the strawberry shake Yuk! If given the option, who would prefer to just take a pill 3 times a day? I know I would!!

Has anyone really found a difference when drinking this? I use it as a treat every night or have one at the cinema so I don't feel left out but should I be avoiding it??

We can usually identify what we do on those really good loss weeks. I am just wondering what these are? For me, it is eating a bit less pasta (as I tend to really over eat with pasta) and more veg.

I used to eat this quite regularly, but have found that it is very high in syns. Does anyone know why this is? I know it has some filling, but it is usually only a tiny scraping and the rest should be free as its just pasta? :S !

I use my slow cooker: Shoulder join of pork, beef stock, bbq sauce, chopped garlic and a small dash of cayenne pepper. Just dump it all in the night before, stick it on when leaving for work in the morning (on low all day). After work, use two forks to pull the joint apart into shred and have...

Have you got a kitchen at work? I take my two slices of nimble (healthy B) and a tin of spaghetti hoops (free). I am quite bad at breakfast, I eat a banana and an apple/pear and that's it. I wish I could get up earlier and have a better breakfast but I just cant drag myself up any earlier, I...

Thanks :) I am looking forward to going back actually. Need to get my butt to the gym again! I love it once I'm there but struggle to motivate myself into getting there. I used to use the wii fit a lot but I'm too heavy now and it won't let me on :( looking forward to being that weight again...

I am on metformin, I am supposed to take 4 500mg tablets a day but they make me feel so sick and my doctor is completely useless, in fact I was on the wrong pills for a long time and this only came to light via a chance meeting with a fill in doctor. My mum has it too and when on her tablets...

Any slimming worlders with PCOS? I was diagnosed about 2 years ago, really struggling with my tablets at the moment as they make me feel really sick. Would be great to hear from anyone who has PCOS too!

Does anyone know how many syns are in the frozen weight watchers meals? Like the cottage pie, chicken/beef casserole etc? I used to find these a god send some days, I would just do them along with a huge stack of veg. Any idea for syns though?

22 Here, part of the reason I am trying to get this weight off now. I don't want to be 50 looking back and realising that I have spent the majority of my life dieting and worrying about my weight! Fed up of loosing a few stone then putting it back on. Would be about 2 stone by now if I added up...

I was 25.1, went down to 23.12 then went off track, put it all back on over xmas and I am going back on Wednesday to get back on track!! Hoping to not be too far over 25 stone again but know I will be. I am going to try and be a bit more active on here as well as I find it great motivation.

Where abouts in the midlands are you? I am in Birmingham and go to the Olton friary. I joined in October, but missed a few sessions in December for various reasons and it has just been a slippy slope from there. I have put on everything I lost plus more!! I am going this week on Wednesday to get...

The small actimel style ones, they cost bout 89p compared to actimels £2.50 but does anyone know their syn value? thanks

Hi All, Went to my first slimming world meeting on wednesday. I have just been making a list of the things I need to buy for my weekly shop this week. I hope it is okay to post these questions here! When looking through my book, it lists 2 slices of warburtons wholemeal bread on the healthy...

5'10 and 5 stone to loose by Xmas :)

I had that in the first week, only lasted a day or two. No sickness though, maybe a bug?

I just eat in my classroom lol

Thanks everyone, I think I have good and bad days. We were trying to think if somewhere to go today and it was like oh shall we go to a castle for a picnic? No cant do that, and it was just a bit depressing, ha a birthday party yesterday and everyone sat around eating fish and chips and cake...

I am currently in the middle of my second week on 100% lipotrim. I lost 13lb in my first week and I was really impressed with that, I wanted to keep going with this until xmas and then start adding in meals after new years. The reason i chose this plan was due to the rapid weight loss and also...

I think ketosis usually kicks in on day 4 xx

Don't worry, you cant undo it now just try to get back on the wagon! Maybe do an extra bit of exercise?

Not sure how much I'm going to loose this week, going to have to be weighed Monday this week because of other commitments but I just feel like I haven't lost much?? Dunno hoping to be pleasantly surprised but so far feel like I haven't shifted much :(

Well done on your loss! Have you been doing much exercise along with the shakes?

Well done everyone!

I find it easy at home but really hard when out. Went to a zoo at the weekend and my family sat and ate beer burger and chips while I had bottled water :( was hard but proud of myself. Going to a tea party tomorrow for a little uns birthday, no cake or anything will b hard :(

EEekk! Had half a spoon of curry today. Was cooking one for my OH and when I stirred it I tasted it from the spoon to see if spices were right and didnt realise what I had done till after! Think this will affect my weigh loss this week? :( :(

A great idea :) I have a favourite pair of jeans I haven't fit into in 6 years -want to wear them on Christmas day!

I'm pledging 20lb too :) eek!

Well done everyone :D

I'm rewarding myself with a Christmas dinner if I reach 5 stone loss by then :)

Hi John Where abouts in Ireland are you? My family are all from Tipperary :) I'm only on week 2 and it is hard but worth it. I think it's that mindset of food = fuel and not food = pleasure.

Cant wait to hear how you get on - hope it goes well!!

Its funny how peoples tastes differ, i tried peppermint tea for the first time last week, nearly heaved afterwards it was so disgusting!

I had it and actually enjoyed it. Well enjoyed may be a bit strong lol but it was okay. I just filled the bowl up with it water but then I had to use a tea strainer to get the lumps out because I whisked and whisked but they wouldn't go.

First weigh in today and lost 13lbs, very pleased :)

There seem to be a lot of us getting weighed in tomorrow!

A brilliant weight loss - well done! My weigh in day is tomorrow. I am hoping i have a big weight loss or i am going to be really fed up, this week has been mega hard! My OH is trying to not eat things i like and is eating things i dont but even so it is really hard. I think when i return to...

Dont feel down, things could be worse! I have PCOS and i have a month long period every four months instead of a week every month. That month is the worst EVER. Seriously is so draining and miserable and it lasts for an entire month. So dont feel down - it could be much worse!!

I am on day 6 and went to a zoo today, it is a very hilly zoo but even so I'm absolutely cream crackered. Feel like i could sleep for a year!

Thanks! My OH is joining so hopefully we can go together which will be extra motivation

Well done! I hope I can do so well on Tuesday!

Well done! Must be super hard at weddings

How much are you hoping to loose? I'm aiming for Xmas for now but will have too see what happens after that!

Anyone been on this website? I love it and find it so motivational. Its great to see what you could look like in 20 or 50lbs!

I must admit I'm only drinking 2-3 litres a day and finding his hard! Might have to up it though and see if it makes a difference. Remember things like TOM can affect you do don't get disheartened. Even if your not due some people put on during ovulation.

Been much easier today, hope that the 4 day rule is true and I can continue feeling okay!

Brilliant - well done! I find this site do motivational although I wish it were a bit more active lol

Mine is also on Tuesday! Will be great to hear how you get on, I'm on holiday from work so haven't done much this week, hoping that doesn't affect my lose too much, going to have to start getting back to the gym! Need a good kick up the bum lol

Mine too vary, I am on holiday from work do its usually 9/1/6 all chocolate but when I'm back at work I think I will try to hold off my morning shake till my first break at 10:30-11 then 1 and 6 just might make the day a bit more manageable but we will have to see!

I havent had my week 1 weigh in yet but I will be interested in following this thread!

Hi, congratulations on your fantastic weight loss! Have you been doing much exercise during your journey? You seem to have lost more than others on LT in such a short space of time. I am day 4 now and just wondering how you kept such regular substantial loss? Again - well one you are n...

Had a really hard day yesterday, think it was partially due to boredom but also due to hunger. Hoping today is a bit easier, I'm dreading the bank holiday think that will be a test of willpower!

Thanks for the replies guys :) I had a vanilla shake for the first time tidy and it was horrid! Drunk 1l of water so far today so going to push for 3 litres today :)

Today is day two of lipotrim, never done a diet like this before. I usually do Akins and loose 4/5 stone then give up and pile it all back on. The only thing I have ever been good at is visiting the gym which I do regularly. I was attracted too lipotrim because of the rapid weight loss but the...

Hi All! I have been considering going on Lipotrim for a very long time however I have only just become in a financial position that i am able to do so. I have a few concerns however and I am hoping someone can help me make an informed decision before starting. Firstly, does everyone purchase...

We mainly eat cheap meals.. so i opt for chicken thighs instead of breasts, eat cheap things like cous cous and pasta therefore reducing bills. The only things i buy the expensive stuff for is bread, milk, and butter lol i also shop around alot so i buy my veggies from Lidl because its much...

I live with my boyfriend and we spent a max of £25 a week including our cats food lol So considering i would have to pay £36 plus his food aswell it would at least double my food bills.

Yes i agree, my doctor isnt the friendliest person and i would rather not go unless i knew i could get them lol

Thanks for the info. Yes i did understand that, but i wondered if there may be vitamins or something i could take? As lipotrim is rather expensive - can you get it on prescription?

Well done! Did you get lipotrim on prescription?

Hi guys im new here and was just wondering what makes lipotrim different to slim fast? I know with slim fast you are meant to eat 1 meal and 2 shakes a day but if you were to eat 3 shakes and no meals would it be the same thing? The reason i ask is because i am a student and really cant afford...

I like to freeze things like diet coke so i can munch away on something tasty for no calories.

I am losing weight because: I want to be smaller than my fiancee I want to have professional pictures done of me in my graduation gown and like them - to see the amount of work it took to get me there not just to see how fat i look. I want to be able to shop in 'normal' shops instead of purely...

could anyone tell me how much difference Xenical makes to a persons diet? I was on it before but clearly wasnt following it correctly as stated above i was given no info by the doctor who prescribed it and i kept having several side affects from it. Lets say i would loose 2lbs a week naturally...

Wow you look really good, i adore your hair its stunning! Congrats on the weight loss, what have you been following to have lost it so quickly? You are a true inspiration and have made me extra motivated!
