Well, after a disastrous start trying to do a VLCD - ended up with headaches and nausea straight away, have decided to do the weight loss the long way, but hopefully permanent way! :) Have a six month old little man and still haven't shaken the last few stone of pregnancy indulgences.. :( So...

well.. that was a disaster... headache day 2 too as well as the nausea, so am going to do the weight loss the long way via ww. I have a 6 month old and just can't be handling him with a headache and nausea too. :( So, looks like it's slow and steady for me!

oh, nice one cazzy... i thought I could only have one tomato per day though? Will try the steamed veg with cottage pie tomo so.. :) thanks for that. :D

so I got my month's supply delivered during the week, and after a nice night out with the girls for my last supper, today is d-day. Had porridge for breakfast - actually tasted ok! Went for a walk at lunch and started to have a massive headache and felt ill. Now, I'm hoping this is only a...

hey there - i've been MIA for a long time here. Did LT a long time ago and lost nearly 2 stone. Didn't gain it all back (maybe half of it) and then I got pregnant. Had my little fella 6 months ago and still have 3 stone to lose... :( So, I've just ordered a month's supply of this Be-YU diet and...

well done Charlotte - that's amazing.. Bet you feel great. And even more so now that people are commenting on it too.. means it's really, REALLY noticeable. Well done missus... keep up the good work!!

thanks for the words of support girls.. had another good week last week, and lost another 3.5lbs... so, i'm over the stone mark now... and delighted. My sis is doing fantastic too - she's nearing the 2 stone mark after 6weeks. So, she's thrilled too... house building is causing so many...

wow wow wow elle... the change in you in your pics is amazing... well done girl, you look fab! amazing!

sorry girls - I'm not going to be posting much over the next while... so much going on. I'll still be updating my weigh-in and staying with LT for a while. That's not changing - but we're just starting building our house and i'm up to tonsils in work, so really won't get on that often. Update...

lol, hilarious rachel... nearly burst out laughing here in office!! Thanks for the link though. Will have a look and as for the luvvin'.... ah, tis great when the ole confidence comes back and bedroom activities seem a bit less 'in the dark, under the duvet!!' :eek::eek::eek: It's all good...

I didn't think i could mix diets Elle - can I do that? By the way, how was your reflexology - feeling more relaxed? I see your mood has changed to 'in love', so I'm guessing that helps with the stress levels... :D

thanks for the info girls! Turns out the flapjack turned my stomach last night - it was horrible - so I'm going back to the shakes cos I find them tasty (I know... mad!!:eek: Considering on day1 I was gagging on the things!).. so back to chemist today to exchange them for the shakes again... :D

well, i tried one... ohmigod, yuk, yuk, yuk... can't stand them. Methinks it'll be back to 3 shakes for me... so more weeks of pure liquid :sigh: Ah well, if it works, so be it!! :D

stick with it jojo - it is so worth it. As the girls have already said, and I can definitely agree, the first few days are the worst. But once you get as far as you first weigh in, you'll be over the worst of it, and you'll also have your first weight loss report to spur you on for the next...

thanks for that Karen... hopefully I'm not sensitive to them... :) Caz

girls, i just read on a lipotrim review on some site when I googled, that the pharmacist doesn't recommend moving to bars until after you've lost a stone. Is this right? I have only lost 9lbs and the chemist has allowed me to get bars this week. Do bars slow the diet down? Cos that's the last...

mapcr - wish i could write it off to totm, but it's not i'm afraid, so that'll be another hurdle in 2 weeks. ah well... :sigh: but like you said, i'll trudge on anyway... like sedalia said, every loss is a loss ;) - so I've turned my mind to think of it like that! i got some bars this week...

welcome jojo - i'm a relative newbie myself and the girls on here are fantastic for support! Well done on starting LT - it's tough at start, but I promise it gets easier!! :D So, stick with it, and you'll be thrilled with the results - I PROMISE!!

thanks for the words of support bea. Yep, i've been drinking my 2.5-3ltrs of water a day so I would have thought water retention wouldn't come into it at this stage. So, you think it might? Do you think it could sort itself out again? :confused: Either way, even though I came home a bit...

ooh, enjoy ur reflexology tomo elle... u deserve it! Hope it helps you destress... :D

ah merlin - don't dispair. I'm sure if you were to look thru this forum, you'd find a LOT of people have slipped up, only to continue on and successfully get to target. Don't beat yourself up. Sure, look, judging by your mail, you are still so determined to lose weight, so you just jump back in...

thanks lucky... yeah, it's great when u really notice it yourself. And one of the girls in my office has said that she can really see I've lost weight in my stomach... happy days. :D They don't know I'm on LT though... BUT... I weighed in today... 2nd weigh in and i'm only down a measly 2lbs. I...

elle - massive congrats on weight loss!! Well done you... you're doing so well!! :D

great stuff girls... thanks for that.. :D well, I was soo chuffed with myself this morning.. Day 2 of Week 2 and I put on a pair of jeans that would normally have a roll of fat hanging over the sides. They FIT me :eek: .... oh hallelujah... i had only really seen the difference in weight loss...

welcome aboard Jenny.. and good luck with the weight loss... :D

slimshady.. i have to say after being away for 2 weeks, and slacking, a 2lbs weight gain is not too much to claw back.. so well done for jumping back on the saddle!! once you see it come off again, you'll be motivated to keep going on it. Don't lose faith - you're making the best move at the...

:rotflmao: i'll say nothing... secret safe with me... :ignore:

totally girls... had my 'yummy' choc shake for lunch... ahem... So now... bring on the skinny minnie brigade... lol

hee hee... you've made me laugh... :D myself and dh are on LT aswell, and last night we were teasing ourselves just talking about what we 'used' to eat (I mean 'hello', it's not even 2 weeks yet!!)... and I was talking about having a yummy baked spud with bacon, cheese and coleslaw... that used...

brilliant... thanks for the advice girls.... think i'll do that so... in my head aswell, I reckon if I don't refeed, I guess I don't have to worry about losing that excess aswell... cool... thanks again.. :thankyou:

thanks for that Rachel... do you think then that I shouldn't bother with refeed, just allow myself that one day off and go straight back? I had thought about that, but I thought that would scupper everything on me. But if you can show weight loss after a weekend away, I'm thinking what's the...

whooop whooop Rachel... go on ya skinny minny, ya!!! :D

welcome mapcr77... good luck with it all... and fair play on ur previous loss of 4 stone... amazing! Sure, it will be no bother to you to lost that stone, maybe even the 2... best of luck girl... and the hunger will pass... :D

Charlotte, I don't know what to say really, as I've never been through this. But sending hugs your way. Thinking of you hun... Caz :hug99:

thanks a mill girls... was soo chuffed with myself yesterday! mapcr77 - well done on taking the first step... yeah, it's tough for the first few days, but I promise you it gets easier. And luckily for you, you think the shakes are tasty... that's half the battle. On day 1, i was gagging with...

Just wanted to set up a thread for myself so I can keep track of how good/bad I'm doing on LT. It's going to be my diary, so i can keep track of how my moods were/are and the weight loss. Fingers crossed I can keep going to target. On Sunday night (day 4 of LT) I so nearly gave in to...

thanks for the encouragement sonkie. Holy moley - u've done absolutely fantastic on LT - 5 stone... that's amazing... well done! and oops, sorry everyone, i just realised i've been posting long posts on the weigh-in thread... :(

thanks a mill for the welcome all! Well, day 2 in the LT house - yesterday (day 1) went quite ok actually. Tum growled a bit, but i noticed I didn't feel hungry (if that makes sense!). Had vanilla shake for lunch and it was ok.. although, ravenbeauty, i think it took me more than 15mins to...

Hi everyone, I'm new here. Have just started LT this morning. My sister has already been on it a week, so she's been giving me the lowdown on the ups and downs of the first week, so hopefully, I'm mentally prepared for the downs. Just had my first shake - strawberry. Have to say, it's taken me...
