Thank you Christine x I'm slowly beginning to feel more myself so bracing myself for the onslaught of night shifts now :)

Thank you :) It's mad how this diet makes you feel a failure sometimes eh! Tbh I think I knew it was the end of the road last week as felt so awful the entire week with a virus that I knew I couldn't carry it on but I really wanted to keep at it as planned until the end of next week at...

Hi guys Just been to nurse for weigh in and down 2lb this week making a total of 23lb over 4 weeks :) sadly however it's no longer possible for me to stay on LT 100% :( I've been very poorly the last 2 weeks and still not feeling great so after long discussions with both my nurse and doctor...

Thanks everyone x Twinklecheeks - yes I've been drinking lots and to be honest because I've felt so dehydrated I've been drinking water like it was going out of fashion.Must admit the thought of eating has never been less appealing but was concerned at the effect the lack of anything except...

Would really appreciate advice today. Not been able to go to weigh in today as have been very unwell the last 4 days :( Judging by my scales I'm down another 4lb which is great but I've been struggling to get shakes down the last 3 days.Most I have managed since Tuesday is 2 and yesterday I...

I've had one since June and wouldn't be without it now.wasn't sure I'd like it as like someone else said I like the feel and smell of a real book lol Can honestly say the kindle is great though and the pages still look like a real book.Most are really cheap to buy,think most I've paid is about...

Thank you so much,was really pleased as made it through the week without dipping ( even after a ink session for new tattoo) Was worried how I'd cope but sailed through and it was Friday so quickly! I'd like to get another 7-10lb off before refeed for Christmas then plan to try and steer clear...

Hi all Just come back from the nurse for 2nd weigh in and I'm down another 4lb so that's 17lb less of me than 2 weeks ago lol.felt so much better this week too which had been great so looking to do another 2-3 weeks 100% before go onto refeed. Have a great weekend x

Try drinking the shakes through a straw,it really does help and a hand blender is definitely a must! I've always used one and it makes the shakes quite frothy :)

Thanks everyone :) Still can't quite believe it or that I managed to stay with it especially after yesterday! x Thanks Shivie,had good chat with the nurse this morning and she feels it could be down to just having been too much for my body to cope with in 1 week,TFR,thyroid and nasty TOTM...

I'm thrilled! Have lost 13.2lb of the 2st I want to lose :) Still feeling bit dodgy but this has cheered me up no end and at least makes the horrendous last few days so worthwhile xx

Thank you yes we can.x I am going to be weighed tomorrow morning and at the moment that's the only thing keeping me 100% as don't think I've ever felt so weak as I do now.I was prepared for feeling rough on day 4 which happened as expected,it's just been a terrible week apart from the 1 day...

Thank you,actually went to bed as I felt so under the weather. 1st weigh in is with the nurse tomorrow morning so really hoping I see a decent loss to at least make this more worthwhile.Going to have a chat with her and see what she suggests,just can't believe how it's affecting me this time :(...

I'm now on day 7 and when I say I'm struggling it's not that I'm hungry because I'm not at all.Fed up of feeling so awful :( I was on LT for around 9 weeks early last year and found it great,apart from the odd days of feeling rough I felt amazing but this time around? It really couldn't be more...

Think we must've started the same day and my weigh in is on Friday too :) Even though I found today tough going as felt dreadful all day I'm not interested in eating food either.I'm only planning to be on TFR until Christmas then I will have hopefully undone the near 2st damage I did over the...

Thanks ladies Glad to say after sleeping on and off for a large part of today I'm feeling more like myself.Came very close to cracking around 2pm,felt so terrible really didn't think I could continue as felt so weak but the shakes seem to have gone and my head feels much better.Still feeling...

Hi guys I'm now on day 4 and feel absolutely terrible.woken today with a splitting headache,very wobbly and generally out of it.bizarrely I'm really puffy too. Hoping this is going to ease as the day goes on because don't remember feeling this dreadful last time.

Thank you :) Angry with myself for slipping back into daft habits after maintaining for so long but like you say I've caught it before it became a real problem.We are off on holiday at the end of January and I am determined to be back where I was by then and I know in order to break the snacking...

A couple of tips for making the shakes more tasty ;) Use ice cold water to make it Drink it through a straw If you like coffee flavoured things add about 1/2 teaspoon of instant coffee to your vanilla shakes......yummy :)

Seems everywhere varies on price,I pay £29 for mine

Haha thanks Josiejojo Hoping it won't take too long but you never know with this eh.expecting good loss this 1st week like the norm but after that as long as its even 1lb a week I'll be happy :) Never ever thought I'd choose to return to it must admit but I knew it was what I had to do to break...

Thanks guys :) Compared to the mammoth feat I faced last time 2st feels very achievable and I know this works well for me so hopeful can see it through for at least 4-6 weeks then revert back to my healthy eating etc.I was slipping back into that stupid evening snacking lark hence why am back on...

Hi guys Some of you may remember me from here last summer but for those who weren't on here then I went on LT from beginning of June until mid September and did pretty well,I dropped from a size 18-20 to a 12 and felt fantastic. Had done great maintaining by following a healthy eating diet and...

thank you :) i am following the sheet to the the letter at the moment,scared to vary it and to be honest i am scared of eating too much,after working so hard to shift the weight its a worrying thought that you could put it all back so being very careful.x Thanks Sandra,really hoping it sods...

Thanks size10,x really am scared of eating anything lol,following re feed sheet to letter but feels like it lets us eat too much?! its def going to take a few weeks to get used to eating again,i was desperate to get to this stage as i had really had enough of tfr but got to be honest and admit i...

Hi Nat had noticed you had been quiet lately and hoped it wasn't that you were struggling.x i know exactly how you feel hun,i have been there and its hard,you have done so so well it would be a shame to give in now,if you really can't continue maybe its time to ease it up and have just 2 shakes...

Hi all Promised i would keep you updated on my refeed progress Went for a weigh in earlier and i have STS which nurse seemed happy with especially as its TOTM again for me :sigh: Found it quite hard to make myself eat rather than reach for the shake sachets,seems wrong to be eating again...

.....Well i neither gained or lost so hoping that's the norm?! Its also that dreaded time again where i gain a few lbs anyway so should be grateful i didn't see a big jump really. Found it very odd to be eating proper meals so to speak again,feel so guilty!! Its quite scary stuff this refeed...

Thank you all so so much.xxx Really do feel great at the moment and long may it continue :) I certainly have no intention of returning to the old me,i am very lucky to have many good friends and a superb family to support me so i really have no excuse. To add the photos Radical you scroll...

if you use a straw you don't get the taste so much and when i had vanilla i would add about 1/2 spoon of coffee granules to it before mixing :)

Hi All i can say is very cold water from the fridge,mix with a blender then drink through a straw :) Its what got me through 14 weeks of them and i still can't drink them without a straw haha Good luck.x

thank you :) It was great and made me feel so much better about myself.x was quite a shock to see the photo's and know it was me as its so hard to see a change in yourself on a day to day basis.x

Thank you Jayne,little more to lose but i know i can do it :) xx

ah thanks Sandra,i felt like a lady for the first time in years and got to say i quite liked it haha.x had so many compliments it was amazing,my hubby just couldn't take his eyes off me,you forget how good it feels to know you look good :)

just thought should add this one too as it proves i now have a waist lol :)

Hi all some of you may know we had a family wedding to attend on Saturday at which several of the guests had not seen me since before i began my diet so it was a bit like a big reveal day for me to show what i have achieved so far.we had a great day and fab evening and there were several people...

thanks to you both,i will be still be updating for a good few weeks yet as i want to try and get another stone off through the re feed and healthy eating.xx

thank you very much everyone.xx been a very busy and odd weekend,i was itching to be able to have a white coffee but am actually sat here now with a coffee and its still black!! not too sure if i like the taste of coffee with milk now and although i did have one on saturday i didn't like it...

Hi everyone had my final weigh in earlier today and I was amazed to find I had lost 6lb!! :D:D:D very much a surprise as I had not been exercising as much this week due to various appointments etc Now on to re feed for the next few weeks then to low cal eating to lose the last little bit I...

Hi everyone had my final weigh in earlier today and I was amazed to find I had lost 6lb!! :D:D:D very much a surprise as I had not been exercising as much this week due to various appointments etc Now on to re feed for the next few weeks then to low cal eating to lose the last little bit I...

Welcome back Bex :) i was wondering where you had got to.....good luck with the re start.xxx

hi sorry only just seen this it has definitely helped me that's for sure,i took it easy in my classes the first week but have given 100% every time i go since then.x

great news,must admit been a little worried about it,surprising how safe you feel with the shakes eh! i am looking forward to being able to have fish and chicken especially,i love sea bass and have really missed it,glad you are doing well.xx

aww thanks Bev.xx 1 week eh,mad to think its my final week but i am ready to stop now :) how is the refeed going? xx

Yes good idea Sandra,hope you find soething.x Thanks SlimmerSu,yes i will still be popping on here,thinking once i am off the shakes i will eat weight watchers style so i keep to a healthy and low cal diet.x

Well done Sandra :D xx

Hi i go to spinning classes 3 times a week and never had that,it probably is related to you not having all your shakes,make sure you drink them regularly especially before something so high impact as spinning.x

Hi,just replied on other post actually,had a fab day but was a little naughty!! amazed i got the 3lb to be honest as had a slack week on exercise front due to being in jersey til 7pm the other day and lots of other things going on ,ready to face the final week now though and i am more than ready...

Hi had a great day,bought a lovely dress in monsoon,almost bought one in coast in de gruchy,was a bit too dressy though and think it would have been hard to alter too.x came back with dress,shoes,jewellery and a ton of mac make up haha :)

Hi! just returned from weigh in and another 3lb is off!! now on to final week before begin reintroducing food :) probably very unlikely i will get the 7lb remaining to my goal next week but will be very close to it,have a great week everyone xx

Hi All i can say to exercise is .....YES DO IT :) From day 1 i have done spinning classes 3 times per week,i swim at least 3 times a week too and get in the gym maybe once a week and its def helped me keep the losses consistent and i have lost a total of 21" from waist,hips etc over the last...

Thank you :) Ha ha yes that would be a good idea eh! :D i am in your island tomorrow actually with a friend on a girls shopping trip,need to find something to wear to this wedding we have 18th September.....hoping your shops have more choice than ours lol.xx

Oh yes....i have done since day 1 Really has helped.x

Thanks Missy,well done on your loss so far, that's brill!! :) xx Its hard some days but it can be done,i have kept myself busy in the gym and pool,spinning has been my life saver :) I am sure you will do great.xx

Thanks so much for being so friendly :) xx it does sound like the plan for me as I think I am a person who needs to know I will be weighed etc lol to keep me on good behaviour but with the freedom to enjoy a night out from time to time.....as for the before and after pics,i was disgusted when a...

thank you Niamh.xx We have a busy 2 weeks ahead so really hoping it will make the days go that bit quicker haha When i first started this goal seemed such a long way off,feels very nice to be so close must say.x

Thanks very much, I feel great to how I did that's for sure :) Not sure if its because its been so long now or if its as the end is in sight but I am desperate to begin to eat again and its all I can think about some days haha.x I have spoken with my nurse I see for the lipotrim and she seemed...

ah right,can't say i have heard of that one,must admit i do miss carbs lol good luck :)

Hi everyone I am currently on Lipotrim but plan to stop in 2 weeks time,had good loss so far and would like to lose another stone via healthy eating after this I have a friend who is on WW and she recommends this as an option for me to get back into eating in a healthy way and lose the last...

Thank you Jaynie.xxxx 86alpzzyj - haha....what diet are you on now then?

Thanks.xx Feeling good and loving the compliments lol really am looking forward to getting back to eating a meal with my hubby and children now though,not much longer :)

Hi all Weighed in yesterday and saw a loss of 3lb which leaves me 10lb off target now :) time is passing so quickly and now school is back to normal its so much easier again to stay in the routine......had so many compliments and double takes by many parents at school,most haven't seen me for...

Thank you :) No tricks as such i am afraid though haha,just plenty of exercise,water and a determined mind.xx

Thanks all of you,i have been very lucky to get consistent losses all the way so it had to slow sometime,expected to still have a stone to lose after finishing so at least i am under that now.x MiniB,i think you are right about knowing the end is close makes it a little harder,must admit i am...

Wow!! Congratulations Bev.xxxx I will really miss you on here,mind you I have 2 more weeks then its my final weigh in too but I think I will still be popping on to see how everyone is and keep myself on best behaviour haha You have done so well,you have really been an inspiration to me many a...

Hi All sorry been very slack updating for the last 2 weeks so here goes....... Week 10 was a disappointing one,TOTM played havoc with me and I STS again,could have been worse I suppose but still little gutted Week 11 went better,saw a 3lb loss on Friday,would have liked a little more but...

Thank you all :) ticker target has been lowered now,fingers crossed i can make it.xx

Thanks all :) trust me i have had my bad moments over the last 9 weeks and very relieved i have great family/friends who have been so so supportive,and you guys here,i know i would not be still going now without all the support I think now i know how many weeks i have left its also a big...

thanks :) feeling great must admit.x

Hi i exercise 6 days a week,either spinning,swimming or gym and my losses have been consistent the whole time,it certainly helps me.xx

thanks both of you,5 more weeks left and then its all down to maintaining :)

Well done Bev.xxx Can't believe how close you are now :)

Thank you very much.xx

Hi everyone These weeks are flying past for me and i really love the numbers i am seeing on the scales,seriously can't remember the last time i was this weight! Saw another 7.5lb off at weigh in on Friday,think its time to lower the ticker target a little more! Hope everyone else is doing well xxx

Hi all was thrilled to bits at weigh in on Friday! Another 7.5lb is off :) Really thought was heading for a low week so was very happy to see the scales.here's to another good week :) xxx

Try drinking it through a straw,makes it much easier i promise.xxx

Hi you will see from my ticker etc i stayed the same one week and like you had followed it to the letter,turned out it was water retention in my case as i had drunk too much water which i would never have thought possible lol. i was downing up to 4.5-5ltrs a day at the time so was advised by...

Well done Bev :D That brilliant,you are really close now.xxx

Thank you :) feels rather odd to have people say i am inspiring them i tell you,even my nurse said on Friday i had inspired her to lose weight she had been carrying since having her baby a year ago,that was very peculiar to hear lol since i have been swimming i really have noticed the inches...

Hi no secrets i am afraid,i have had my bad weeks like everyone else gets,even decided i couldn't do it any more about 4 weeks ago! The only reason i am still here and going strong is down to the fact i have a lovely nurse who i see for my lipotrim who pretty much begged me to give it another...

Hi kellie yes it was a huge shock to lose that much in my 1st week,i must admit i was very sceptical when i first began but it has more than proved itself to be a diet that works,i am now seeing numbers on the scales i haven't seen for 5+ years.x As for exercise,i have always exercised right...

Thanks all.xx Yes Bev it really is keeping me focused.x I thought i may have up to another stone to lose through healthy eating and my gym work but think i may be able to do that while on Lipotrim now so it will be a case of maintaining ,i have learnt so so much about my old eating habits and i...

Hi Bev i do intend to stay on until the wedding we have so i will adjust my target again once i get there,will be great to lower it again and i never dreamt i would be able to get down to such numbers at the beginning hence setting more realistic goals for myself then adjusting as time has...

Thanks Daisy :) got to be honest was a little disappointed for short time as its obviously slowing down now which as my nurse said has to be expected now as there is much less of me than when i started.x 4lb is the minimum i really want to get a week til i finish so its actually all i need and i...

Hi all another 4lb down at yesterdays weigh in and still very determined to see this through until mid sept. days/weeks seem to be flying past,sure it is because i know the end is in sight now lol :) must admit though could continue drinking the strawberry shakes for much longer :) xx

Have you tried drinking them through a straw? i found i gagged a bit if i tried to gulp them down but through a straw its fine,makes drinking them so much easier.worth giving it a go,i know other people also use the same trick.xx

Hi everyone Weigh in yesterday and another 4lb down! still another 5/6 weeks on this yet and raring to go :) Hope everyone else has had a good week.xx

Thanks all.xxx off for next weigh in soon so will update later hopefully if get the chance :)

Have you tried drinking the shakes through a straw? that's the only way i can drink them.xx

Hi i seem to be ok at the moment re skin but i swim several times a week to tone up while losing As for the exercise i was just advised to take it easy for the first few days to a week and only do as i felt able,i was already doing spinning classes and went to one 2 days in on this and was...

Hi black coffee is most definitely better with a sweetener(must admit still not great but slightly better) lol,i don't take sugar but i have had to use sweeteners in coffee since i have been doing this.x

Hi waterworks i tend to have mine about 9am and then 1.30pm and last one usually around 6.30pm I have forgotten the final shake on a couple of occasions yes,usually when i have been out around the time i would usually have it or return home late,they don't recommend you miss any though.x

Hi margareth I can't believe your pharmacist was saying you were losing too much,i see a nurse for mine here and she has never said i am losing too fast,she has always been thrilled with my losses and personally i think exercise does help the loss and my nurse has said exercise is good to do on...

Hi BigS Thank you very much :) I never thought i would get this far trust me! Yes i am out most evenings at the moment,i swim 4 nights a week and go to spinning classes 3 times a week so exercise is most definitely a help.xx

Hi thanks.xx yes i must admit mixing shakes is second nature now lol,the weeks are flying past :)

Hi Charl I am in my 8th week and have lost a total of 50.5lb,not far off finishing now good luck with your journey :) xx

Good god....does that mean i have lost the equivalent of 400 sausages????

Well done Bev!! :) i am in size 14 at the moment,feels great eh.xxx

Hi i had one blip in week 4 when it was my birthday and a big bike show/music weekend here but apart from that i have been ok Yes i was livid the week i stayed the same as had been 100% but it turned out to be water retention,i had been drinking too much water,up to 5ltr a day and it was just...

Hi Catt thanks :) actually lowered my target last week but think i may be able to lower it a little more if i keep this up :) really don't know where this energy and determination have come from! Have a family wedding mid September so intending to stay on this til then,the wedding will be my...

Thanks Catt time really is flying past and i am really beginning to see the difference in my shape,def spurs you on.xx :D

Hi all Weigh in was Friday and another 5lb off so more than happy with that Looking for another good week,these days are flying past Hope everyone else is having a great week.xx

Hi all went for my 7th weigh in on Friday and another 5lb off so happy days :D:D

Hi Yes i always thought more water the better lol but i took it too far,well for me anyway I did the opposite,pretty much stopped coffee as really struggle with black coffee still so i just made it worse as coffee is a diuretic. like you felt so bloated,i just kept thinking well more water will...

Please dont give up,its one slip that's all and yes you will have to get back into ketosis but its not the end of the world.x This will only spell the end if you let it,pick yourself back up and get straight back on your shakes and you will be fine I am sorry you are not getting the support...

Hi Catt i have to agree with you, i had a couple of bad weeks but the last 3 weeks its like a whole new life,the compliments are coming thick and fast and i can honestly i could live off the strawberry shake for months i have no urge for anything bad,like you say its like you have no need for...

Hi i was the same,stuggled to get even 2ltrs in to begin with lol,built it up over the last 6 weeks but 4ltrs was just a push too far for me sadly,the water retention began very quickly once i was hitting between 4-5 litres and like you i am struggling with lack of milk in coffee etc so of...

Hi Kimmi, personally i cant drink 4ltrs a day as i tend to hold onto it,have severe water retention on anything over 2.5 - 3ltrs,may be worth cutting it back slightly just to see if its affecting you too? i didn't lose at all one week and it was purely down to the water and as soon as i dropped...

I know what you mean by that,i would love to taste either lol Welcome back littleflower :) You CAN do it.xx

Good luck for your 1st weigh in :) xx

my body doesn't seem to like more than 3ltr a day,we are all different eh,if i drink any more than that i really feel it as get bloated and my scales begin climbing. i hate black coffee (dying for the day i can have a normal coffee or pop to Costa lol) too but am forcing myself to have at least...

lol,not just through spinning,did that by cutting back on my water intake too as was retaining badly while drinking up to 4 litres a day, that's what caused me to stay the same the previous week,got it down to a T now,xx

Hi Kimmi Sorry to hear of the low losses,its disheartening isn't it.x how much are you drinking out of interest? do you exercise? xx

Congratulations Suzy, that's fab,keep it up.xx

Hi got to say my favourite thing now since being on lipotrim is spinning,its really helping get the lbs off and you feel great afterwards too :)

Yes my pharmacist mentioned this when i discussed using them occasionally,it really is something you need to be advised upon by your own G.P personally as we are all different,the mad thing is actually i am usually very bad at retaining around TOTM and yet its that time begun again today i...

Thank you both :) I must admit i have been very lucky,this diet really seems to suit me and i have done far better than i believed possible,i was very sceptical the 1st week but even with a couple of not so good weeks its really working for me,i am seeing numbers on the scales now i haven't...

You are very much right it could be water retention,thats what stopped me showing a loss last week after being 100% and like i said i was livid! i personally find my body cant cope with 3+ litres of water a day as that's when i begin to retain,dropped my water intake back to 2.5 litres max and...

Thank you very much :) it more than made up for the awful week where i didn't budge! x

Thank you so much,i am thrilled to hear i have spurred you on,i have had some low points where i have been more than ready to say no more,i cant do it but i have made it through and am still going strong,congratulations on your anniversary when it comes around,i intend to go for fish and plenty...

Thanks Bev I really do feel i have found what's right for me now and the weeks are flying past,know i only have a maximum of 7 weeks now and feel i CAN do it and reach my new lower goal,the support you get really does help,its only the support that got me through the last few weeks honestly. i...

HI please please do not give up!!! i stayed the same last week after being 100% so i was livid and my nurse had to near enough beg me to give it another week as i was feeling exactly the same as you and this week?......well went yesterday afternoon and i had lost 13lbs so that made me ecstatic...

Well done Bev,you really are inspirational :) enjoy your evening,i always have soda water when i go out,makes me feel more a part of it.x

Some of those sound very appealing haha,a taste of what i have to come very soon :)

Hi Bev,i really don't know lol,i know 8lb of it was the water i was holding onto from the week before but how i managed another 5 on top i don't know,feels great though to be back on track after a rocky couple of weeks I have even lowered my ticker for a new target as am now only 4.5lb off my...

Thank you both,i really hit a wall a couple of weeks ago where i really felt i couldn't continue but glad to say with help of some amazing friends,my dad and my brill hubby they all kept me going and i feel so glad now,really have found the way to make it work for me yet again and i am feeling...

WOW Bex,well done you.xxxx think we must be about the same size now and you have done brilliantly,hope you are getting complimented as much as me :)

Hi Catthin i stayed the same last week and i was gutted!! however this week i lost 13lbs :D so stick with it and you could be in for a big surprise at your next weigh in.xx

Hi swimming is great for toning up your whole body if you can set aside some time even once a week it will help :)

Hi all great week.......13lbs off:D:D:D here's to week 7 xx

Hi Daisy I spoke to a pharmacist yesterday about using the herbal aquaban He was very much against it for general use,i got permission to use it occasionally only as my body is not coping with the amount of water i am drinking at the moment and i am retaining water,he did say though if it...

Hi What a story! you really have been through it,good luck on your new journey :)

Hi 2sizes smaller,i managed to still lost 7.5lb the weigh in after my blip so i wouldn't worry,obviously it will depend on what you had mind you,i was lucky and some people on this diet will probably hate me for it lol but i am and have only ever been craving things which are actually amazingly...

Hi all sorry i have been very slack in updating after a manic couple of weeks so here goes Last week i had a terrible weigh in,had been 100% all week and lost absolutely nothing!!! i cant tell you how angry i was lol,my nurse couldnt understand it as my ketones are so high they are off the...

Hi I have been the same,hit a big wall too and felt so stupid,mind you i am now back on and feeling great but i only got back there after falling off the wagon and giving in to a chicken salad not that i am telling you to do the same lol,it really sorted out the need to eat and i have been...

Hi i was not implying in any way that people should follow what i did,i did state that was my nurses advice to me and its helped a great deal,been 100% ever since with no problem,i was merely pointing out they don't like you to skip shakes without putting something else in place so if like in...

well done on the loss so far,.xx

hi I have been exactly the same where i really don't want a 3rd shake some days,it was this and the fact i was really stuggling for a week or so to stay on the diet that led to me having a very good chat with my nurse on friday when i went for weigh in,to be totally honest i had walked in...

Hi i agree exercise helps in 2 ways, 1, you feel great after a good work out and 2 it helps bring the lbs off i go spinning 3 times a week and i have always had good losses up to now,they are definitely helping me.xx

Hi my nurse took usual measurements, bust,waist and hips.x I lost : 4" from bust 4" from waist 3" from hips have actually been struggling to see any difference in myself when i look in the mirror,think that's just a dieters problem lol but a friend gave me great suggestion of putting the...

in reply to your comment,i was thrilled i really was,yes i go to spinning classes 3 times a week so they are most definitely helping.x

Hi everyone sorry not been on for a few days,thanks so much for your comments,xxxx very very happy to say since weigh in i am having a great week,100% all the way and not struggling,think its because i know i am back there on Friday instead of having 2 weeks between which has helped far more...

Thanks,the 1st week is tough until you hit ketosis but you will be so much better when it does.Good luck for next week.x

Hi all Back from weigh in and honestly thrilled to find i have lost 7.5lbs after a difficult 10 days or so,Also discovered i have lost a total of 11" which has cheered me up no end and i am happy to say after my doubts over continuing i am ready to face another week :D

you are right it has made me a bit more determined to stay on it but am going to discuss it tomorrow and see what she advises,also been doing weigh ins fortnightly since 1st one and think that could be part of the problem too,think may need to go every week to help me stay on it even a few more...

Hi I did yes,little too much!!! (good job i worked most of it otherwise would have been much worse!) Fellow Guern eh? are you a Chaos fan too then?

Hi everyone Due to go for weigh in tomorrow,should have been today but nurse is off ill so they cant fit me in til tomorrow morning. Absolutely dreading it as had a horrendous weekend over my birthday where i did slip off the wagon,been back on 100% for just over week now and scales just...

Hi,i go to spinning classes 3 times a week and the only thing my doc and nurse said about it was to take it easy for the 1st week while your body gets used to the new regime,i have been absolutely fine at my classes.x

I pay £27 for a weeks supply here

Thanks Sonkie,i am going to do my best this week again,thrilled to be seeing lower stone munbers on the scales believe me haha :)

i felt lousy too in the first week just before ketosis kicked in,i was cold,ached everywhere and felt absolutely dreadful but once ketosis gets going you feel like a whole new person honest :)

hi, you put it on your signature like your ticker,remember to save it though :)

Thank you skinnyone,this weekend could be a little difficult as its my birthday and also a big bike/music festival here but am going to behave(hopefully lol) working at the show most the weekend so that will keep me out of trouble at least,i will be too busy to be tempted

Thanks Bev,you are right i know,was just really hoping to get to the 2st lol and was disappointed for a little,my dad and hubby gave me a good talking to though haha :)

wow Bex that's brilliant,well done you :D:D:D

Hi everyone Just returned from the nurse for my weigh in and lost another 9.5lb Was a little disappointed at first i must be honest as thats been over a 2 week period so was hoping for more but as a friend has pointed out thats still a good loss,(totm is any day so thinking that could account...

ah,just replied on the other thread :) yes yes yes,it does help knock off the lbs without a doubt,if you feel ready to do some good cardio work then go right ahead,you wont be disappointed :)

I have to say i go to spinning classes up to 3 times a week and each session can easily knock 4lbs off so i would def say exercise speeds up the weight loss :)

hi yes i do combine exercise with the lipotrim,i find one spinning session can knock 4lbs at least off so its worth doing something,maybe swimming if you don't fancy the gym?

Ha yes i have been imagining a slice of toast with marmite.......i could have killed for just a bite even at a few points this week,i do keep telling myself i can have that when i come off this and it can wait but must admit the mind is not always willing to obey ;)

Thanks hun yes possibly, think i will def make sure i am booked with nurse every week for weigh in from now on,admittedly i haven't been drinknig the water as much as should last few days with working and i have missed last shake of an evening twice too as just been so busy not had chance to...

Hi again as some of you may have read i am struggling a bit at the mo,just occurred to me that i was fine until 1)started a week of night shifts and 2)knew i wasn't going to be weighed for 2 weeks (due to fact working nights as sleep most of day) just thinking it could be down to fact i don't...

Hi everyone not been on for a few days as busy working night shifts but i am really beginning to feel like i have hit the proverbial wall......all i can think about is food and i am so close to cracking at the moment but really don't want to,not sure if its because i am working through the...

Hi Lily gabriel i have a friend who is starting the tony ferguson programme,it looks good :) as for exercise i also started at my gym a few months ago before going on LT and currently go spinning 3 times a week and swimming at least twice,i have noticed that if i weigh myself after a spinning...

hi ,thanks everyone,i felt rough for the entire day,had a splitting headache by late afternoon too but paracetamol and a spinning class got rid of that :-) felt absolutely fine by late evening so i think it must be just a LT blip,I felt exactly how you describe Beenice so hope you are feeling...

Hi all i am now on day 9 and after feeling great all week (especially after my weigh in)i have woken today to feel out of sorts,not ill as such but feel very bloated like i am full of fluid and a bit achey,my legs have felt like they don't belong to me too if that makes any sense?! Not sure if...

Thanks:):) you are right there Bex,working towards next week now and feeling very positive.x

thank you all so much,am still rather shocked to be honest and cant quite believe it,i was prepared to see 5 or 6lb off and wasn't hoping for any more than that as i didn't want to be disappointed,kinda blew that away i think lol.x

thanks Catt and MiniB,if it wasn't for the advice on here especially when i was feeling so rough Monday i would have caved in,i am so glad i didn't,here's to the next couple of weeks!! :D

thanks Donna,good name lol yes indeed,will only be going by my own scales next week as have 2 weeks til see nurse for official weigh in but its most definitely spurred me on to keep at it, proves how much crap i ate i suppose,things will most definitely be changing when i do begin eating again...

than you,i feel great yes,don't officially get weighed for 2 weeks now but have no intention of being naughty so hopefully will get a decent loss when i see my nurse again.x

thak you all,just come back from 1st weigh in and an amazing 15.5lb down :D:D:D

thanks guys,it certainly helps you want to carry on eh,shows all my spinning classes etc are working :)

Thank you so much,i am really shocked and yes it has made this week so so worth it.i am raring to go for the next week :)

Well guys, just got back from my 1st weigh in and i am in shock quite honestly!! I have apparently lost a whopping 15.5lb To say i am ecstatic is putting it mildly :D:D:D

i quite like coffee flavoured things so i like it as i found the vanilla was def not one of the favourites,my nurse recommended it and it most definitely improves the taste,i also drink mine through a straw as that helps me drink them rather than trying to glug it down

i add 1/2 spoon coffee to my vanilla shakes,(not tried it warm though)makes it more tasty :)

Thanks everyone :) Am very glad to report i am feeling great today,thanks so much to you all for the advice and support,weigh in booked for 10.15am tomoz so fingers crossed.xx

Thanks, hopefully i will have a good loss to report :)

Cheers Catt i had felt great up to today so hoping that feeling comes back very quickly :) I am not hungry in the slightest so that's making me feel quite good as really thought i would struggle,i think once i get the 1st weigh in out the way i will feel happier too.x

you are probably right,i have an under active thyroid too so i have always struggled to get good losses so i think it prob is a case of not believing this will have good results,well we shall find out wed and hopefully i will be a happy girl :)

Thanks MiniB Really don't know why i am worried must admit as i know i have been good lol,i suppose its just fear of not getting a good result after following things by the book,as for feeling so lousy does it last long if it is down to being in Ketosis or is it a short lived thing? never been...

Thanks hoping you are right and it is just a sign of things kicking in,have felt so well till today it has shocked me at how rubbish i feel,have my first weigh in on wed so will ask the nurse about it if i still feel lousy,am really nervous about the weigh in too even though i know i have been...

Hi Bex thanks for the kind welcome and well done on your weight loss,i will be thrilled if i get results like that feeling naff today so hoping it means things are starting to work.x

Hi all I am on day 5 of Lipotrim and have felt weird all day so far,not hungry but just don't feel with it and cold too.is this normal? have been doing so well that i am now worried i will end up falling off the wagon so to speak as i feel so awful Any advice?

Hi there found this site while looking for support groups associated with Lipotrim Started on Thursday 3rd June so now on day 4 and have so far coped well,much better than thought i would for sure,have never done any thing like this before but was sick of being a large girl and my health is...

Using the straw def helped me so give it a go :-) i want to feel good about myself again so hopefully this regime will get me on the road to that,if i see a good loss at my 1st weigh in that will def spur me on :)

I am def female lol and believe it or not very active,i go to spinning classes 3 times a week and am in the gym couple of evenings a week but i have an under active thyroid and have struggled with my weight since that was diagnosed 14 years ago,my bp has been steadily rising the last few weeks...

I have had that all day lol but is it too early to be getting that after such a short time? Only info i could find in the leaflets i was given was that it starts once your body has used up its sugar supply.

Hi all very new to all this,started on the new regime on Thursday morning and am amazed at how well I have coped so far even though its early days Just wondered how do I know when I am in ketosis? (prob not the right name lol ) Have never tried this diet before so really not sure what to...
