10 stones gone folks, forever. Lighter Life has transformed me and my life! Everything is easier, walking, getting in the car, sitting on an aeroplane and most of all having the energy for my kids. I still have a little way to go but I am starting management at the end of March and will get...

Hi Folks I started my LL journey at a shameful 27.5 stones at the beginning of September. I have weighed in today at 19st 10lbs which gives me a near 8 stone loss. To get under 20st has given me such a wonderful feeling, I can't tell you how pleased I am (somehow being in the teens makes me...

Hi all My wife finally convinced me to go and get some new trousers as my existing ones were a little 'baggy'. I have dropped from a 57" waist to 48", bloody chuffed to bits. The new trousers actually make me feel thinner too. Still a long way to go but it is really starting to notice now...

Hi John Hi I have been doing LL for 4 weeks now and there is no doubt that the first few days were hard for me. But the only advice I can give you is to just think about how much you want to change your life. If that is a real commitment then any carb withdrawal symptoms you may feel will be...

Hi I had my 3rd week WI last night. A measly 4lbs! I have to say after my previous losses I am very down about this. I have done nothing different and have staid rigidly to the plan. I even sat there on Saturday night while my wife, sister and her boyfriend tucked into the most delicious curry...

The end of the first week is in sight and I have kept rigidly to the plan, I so hope I get the result I want tonight (7-9lbs). I haven't weighed myself but my wife measured my waist and chest last night, 4" off my waist and 2" off my chest from last week. Hopefully all will be well. I'll post...

Day 2 for me too Hi Spoogs I'm on day 2 as well. Not feeling great but very positive. Good luck on your journey! All the best Nick

13 stones for me... hopefully it won't be an unlucky amount. Sat here at the end o my first day on the LL plan. Not feeling great physically but feel very positively mentally. I can't wait to be slim again, just can't wait.

Thanks Thanks for all the kind comments. Cheers Nick

The seat belt... Hi Janet, Yep the seat belt request is a shocker. I fly very regulary and one of the things that worried me was that I had started to harden up to the embarressment of asking for it. A bad sign. How long before "er, excuse me, do you have a couple of extension belts...". And...
