i got some of them metal things from tesco (£3.50) that are the US cup sizes, theres x4 of them, 1cup, 3/4 cup, 1/2 cup and 1/4 cup - i measure all of my veg/salad in these. On the plus side cathy, as you know i switched from lipotrim to atkins, and a week in ive lost 3/4lb which i know is only...

ahhhh, that makes sense. i have a fairly physical job, but im not doing any excercise, yeah i know i should but hey lol. jus wondered if id lose inches still

olive oil, vinegar salt and black pepper :)

as the title suggests, how can you looses inches around your waist etc but not looses weight - is this muscle from excercise? just curious to be honest

Lmfao, u sure your not just bored? ;)

its the thought that counts lol

btw i know its suppose to help bind the egg whites or something

Anyone made one of these without the tartar stuff? i forgot to get some, and dont really fancy fighting with every1 whos shopping for bbq stuff lol

Well tonight is going to be split up between, tv with the other half, a bit of xbox360 a bit of ps3 lol. I ave to pop into work tomorrow for an hour to make sure all is well and then bbq and pee up tomorrow afternoon. Big brekkie sunday morning and a lazy day :D

no trip to asda for you then lol I like the rugby too Jim - only Union though!

ha knew that would be the response, but im sure some of your other halfs or kids might want shirts :)

By the way the deal started this morning - and shirts are not in the George section, but in the home & leisure

Just a bargain ive found today - Asda are selling england shirts (proper umbro ones) for £25 - normal price is £40ish. They are limited to 3 per customer and only while stocks last - these are going to fly out - almost half price, so if you planned on getting one for the world cup or getting...

bein a good boy lol, be all the better when im aving it on saturday, that and the fact i dont have any dr pep zero lol

any1 had dr pepper zero n vodka? im going to a bbq on Saturday, think i mite try some lol

No, uve nt done it wrong, but if u do a search instead of scrolling down the list its easier. Mayo is under a weird sub heading lol, i found evetything i ate on there today :)

Ebay, bout a 5er delivered. Some chemists sell them too

There is an app in the app store called atkins, do a search fir it, it's free an tracks ur carbs etc daily and your weigh and bmi, it's really good!

Alot of name brands make supermarket own brand stuff anyway. Us b suprised at how much....

Not essential, but not a waste, they're good for people new to ketosis as a bit if reasurance, they also help let u know if you've eaten something that brings you out of ketosis- cheese is allowed in the rule book but does affect some people

i looooove Nandos lol extra hot baby :D

Im not a girl, and i love that! thats my kind of clothes shopping lol

im having a takeaway on friday or saturday lol, decidint between donna meat, chicken kebab minus pitta, onions n toms or chicken foo yung frm chinese lol

Do you find it more expensive to be on atkins? The cost doesnt bother me, im just wondering. My girlfriend thinks it'll be more expensive on a shop, but i think it will even out as im not buying stuff i usually owuld have - beans, spagettii, tom sauce, salad cream, bread etc etc etc

amazon n ebay for additive free bacon? lmao i meant the bacon, i have the atkins book lol

is this readily available frm supermarkets? im going to go by the book and not count it :)

the technical name for it lol - i find george formby sounds better than the george forman :)

bacon is sometimes processed (additives added which mean it sometimes contains carbs) pure meat, steak, chicken, pork, fish etc are all zero carbs :) and therefore unlimited..

get a george formby, the type with the removable plates so you can put it in dishwasher, i jus put the bacon on there and leave for 10mins, all crispy wen i get back :)

im going to say a stone, that would get me to my ideal weight and my bmi would be around 23ish :) I have to come off LT so i had enought time to do all 4 stages of atkins properly

you must have to cook it for ages to get it crispy.

anno, cant wait lol, really happ with my loss on LT but wish id just started atkins in 1st place, that said i only had a couple of stone to shift, and ive lost 16lb with LT. :)

its fluid ounces, if you have a measuring jug that has fluid ounces up the side, 8 of these equate to 1cup :)

i already have my 1st days meas planned lol B 2 sausage, 2 boiled eggs L Tuna steak salad with mayo & little cheese D Steak with steamed veg (1/2 cup green beans , 1/2 cup broc) :)

Jim, i agree, but i know once i complete the 1st 3 stages of atkins i can indulge a little now and again in maintenace with treats like this - providing i dont binge etc, so its only a short term sacrifice, plus ive eaten no food for 3weeks now, ill happily pick the fish from the batter lol :)...

Im assuming chippy fish would be acceptable on induction providing i DO NOT eat the batter? cheers

cheers guys, obv atkins is a complete lifestyle change so sacrifices need to be made, just curious if theres substitues, i love tom sauce lol

hey guys, is there any salad cream that youve found that can be eaten on atkins induction. i checked my Heinz bottle last night and its really carby, tom sauce is the same. cheers

hi,this might help: http://www.minimins.com/cambridge-diet-faq-general-information/26311-dangers-alcohol-when-ketosis.html

Cheers Jim, Im staying on LT until my supply runs out, which will be this friday, and then going to swa over, cant wait to eat again lol

Where do u guys gt ur flax meal from? I'd never heard if it until a couple of days ago. Do supermarkets sell it? Is it expensive? Cheers

Yeah read through it today and made some notes. Thats what prompted my initial post. Going to read it again tomorrow just so it sinks in, and then start some meal plans :)

Hmmm voddy for me :)

I cnt wait to eat lol. I see atkins as what I want to do as a lifestyle choice :)

Thanks dude. We'll be Lt to atkins buddies lol. Im guna convert on monday then doing ur method :)

Wen do you suggest i start induction though? As i said if i stay on LT till i was going too ill have lost too much to start atkins at induction. Did u refeed 1st, or just switch to induction?

ive made up my mind with help from this forum and research, and decided that atkins longterm, is where i see myself being and the lifestyle i want to follow - i wish id started this instead of LT, as i wasnt sure where i was going to go once id reached goal after LT longterm - but hey ho, ive...

i meant after induction mate. i know you cant have any on induction :)

ahhhh so i was thinking stalls which is same thing but wrong deffinition. Cheers mate

:( feel stupid for asking, but what does STS mean in the weighloss ticker thing mean? Im thinking stalls but not sure lol

Hi, still deciding which is best for me - ie low carb or atkins once i finish my lipotrim diet. Ive got the atkins book and im going to start reading this afternoon. 1 quick question...once past induction, what do you guys drink - and can you swap your daily leafy green carb allowance for...

Cathy, how did you switch from LT to atkins? did you do the refeed, and then start or just switch straight onto it? (im on LT at the mo, and want to switch to atkins or low carb in a couple of weeks you see. im going to do the refeed and start this as a new diet - curious how youve transferred)...

i dont like the soup. it just tasted powdery to me, even with a hand blender.

i dont mind any of them, just hate the soup. i get a mix of all 3 flavours when i get mine lol

ahhh makes sense, i thought they were both based on low carbs. So rather than basing it on same ammount of carbs im currently on with LT i should finish LT anfd then start on low carbs as a whole new diet?

HI, Im currently on LT 100% ive been on this for 9days, and aim to stay on it for 21 days. After this period i want to slow my weight loss, and switch to a low carb diet (think im a carb addict, so low carb will do me the world of good) Im aware during maint stage of atkins 20g of carbs is...

lol thanks, not a very conclusive poll so far though haha

frig, come on guys, 25 views - VOTE, its only 1 click!!!

Thanks mini. Peter Kay was really good, hope he releases the dvd of this tour around xmas time, thatll deffo be on my santa wish list. Funny though, seeing people eat n drink made me want some but through association - as i wasnt actually hungry, and my mouth has stopped watering at the thought...

Just for the shakes and soup. I'm just curious tbh, i got the choco shake for the 1st time last night so ive finally tried all shakes now.

When to see Peter Kay last night at the MEN (he was awsome) anyway, was really proud of myself what with all the food smells and people walking past with food etc. Anyway when to the bar to get myself a bottle of water and my girlfriend a voddy & coke, anyway, out of pure habit, i took a sip of...

just a point on this, i fond making them with the correct ammount of water makes them thincker, and satisfies me more after having them...each to thier own i guess though

ok so my 1st week is over, wasnt too bad to be perfectly honest. Weekend was a bit bad but hey its all for the greater good! Anyway going by my digital scales (go for chemist weigh in later) ive lost 11lb which im well happy about. I can see and feel the diffreence already which helps spur me...

cheers loudei, i read they were a big no-no, not because of ketosis but just frowned upon. deffo know i have an alternative now :) - judging by ur weekly stats they certainly havent done you any harm :)

ok, trying not to be crude, but before LT 100% i was a 1ce a day man, now im 2ce a week, obv this is down to only having shakes, i take it this is norm then? Btw mine would be more like 500g lol

scrap this, did a search and no-no-no is the answer. i wasnt going to get them i dont think but was curious as to what people thought, now i know :)

does any1 use these? i bought sme off ebay last week and they came yesterday. Im happy to say that im in ketosis, i already had a feeling i was coz i have nasty breath (which i never suffer with) and my pee smells lol. But the sticks give you that little extra boost knowing that ur body is...

LIPOTRIM DIET WATER FLAVORING on eBay (end time 06-Jun-10 17:32:41 BST) whats peoples views on these?

does this increase weight loss, or is this totally for 'gummed up systems' lol

Ive been on lipotrim for 7 days now, my 1st 2 shakes were horride - think its just ur pallet adjusting, now when i have them they taste so so good - they were salty at 1st but now i love them..

Hi thanks for your reply. !st weekend is now over with thank god, but im guna dread them if theyre all as bad lol. But hopefully liek you say it gets better :)

Wow, i was cruising through TFR, Saturday was day 4 for me. The weekend was so hard, its the 1st time i really had to really will myself i didn't need food - maybe mental, but the weekends would be when i got rid of all my cravings for the week to come. To all of you who have been on this...

Heres a tip ive found helps a little. Not sure if its been mentioned before, but get a glass, fill with ice and crunch on it. Although ive not had any problems or hunger pains etc (I'm only on day 4) Friday night would be a bluray and some goodies, trying to stay in a normal as possible routine...

Had no probs with day 2, and now im starting day 3. Ive found that having my 1st shake at about 9am and my other shake after work at about 6pm works best for me. I do wake really dehrdrated which is nuts as i drink loads (and pee loads lol) and feel a bit light headed in the mornings but it...

Started LT 100% yesterday, up to now im fine, woke with a headache but i was dehydrated (very yellow & stinky pee) so had a cuppla coffees and a few glasses of water ovr an hr period and theyve gone. I do feel a bit light headed - but id imagine thats my blood sugar levels adjusting or something...

Well day 1 over with, not to bad so far - i know its going to get worse before it gets better though :)

hi, thanks for all your replies. Im having x2 male shakes a day, had one at 6am this morn and will probs have the 2nd after work at about 18:30, but i think thats too far apart. so will probs have my 1st at 10:30 tomorrow and the 2nd at 18:30 still. Up to now im ok (only day 1 i know), id...

Hi, Never tried Lipotrim before, i know a couple of girls who have used it with great success, so thought i'd give it a blast. I'll try and post as often as i can, as ive noticed far fewer men post on here than women - maybe a pride thing, but hope my experience will help. Great site btw -...
