I was on Lipotrim for 4 weeks, within days of starting, I noticed that my gums were a bit sore and inflamed. Over the four weeks it got worse and worse. I mentioned it to my dentist who was very dismissive and put it down to the fact that I was in dire need of a deep clean. Last week, my gums...

It was a hard week this week, after I fell off the wagon on Friday I was convinced that I would lose virtually nothing this week, instead, I was rewarded with a 2 kilo loss. 4.4 pounds. I'm over the moon and ready to face lunch with the family on Sunday for my daughter's 18th. I'm below 15...

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. I fell off the wagon big style on Friday. Had my WI, 3lbs off. Not bad, but not as good as I was hoping for. Still, I felt pretty pleased with myself as I set off on the road again for another trip to Edinburgh. What a foul drive it was, the wind and the heavy rain...

I'll be investigating the options for an NHS tummy tuck when I have shifted my weight. My daughter (she's 18 next week, I've been struggling with this for a looong time) was born by emergency section and weighed in at 10lbs. I'm 5' 5" with a small frame, while I was pregnant I was huge! I was...

I forgot to mention the chat I had with my boss yesterday. I haven't seen much of him over the last three weeks, he's been out of the office just about every time I've made it in. Yesterday, we were outside having a ciggie and a chat (knocking them on the head on Monday), when he noticed my...

Well two weeks at 100% done. It's fair to say that I'm feeling pretty damn proud of myself. I'm also surprised at how easy it's been. That said temptation has been placed virtually under my nose this week, chip butties and Crunchie chocolate biscuits. It was only the fsct that I did so well ladt...

Thanks for your support, guys, it means a lot. Home again and the house feels really empty without my daughter here. She decided to go to Stornoway to visit her dad and half sister. This means that next weekend I'm in Edinburgh again to collect her from the Inverness bus. I wouldn't tell my...

I did it! I finished my first week My first weigh in and I lost. ....10lbs! I am overjoyed! As I write, I'm back up in Scotland, my cousins and their children have also turned up, six adults (seven last night) and three children in the house means chaos! Molly is one year old on Monday, so today...

Honk for day 5.:D

Keep it up Monarch, you are doing really well. I've noticed I can smell so much more since starting on the LT. I'm only on day 5, but already it seems the world is a much smellier place. Not only delicious smells and foodie smells (which I seem to be able to enjoy without feeling tempted), but...

Good Luck! I have my first WI on Friday. I can't wait! Hula.

Hi Lynn, thanks for your reply. Mum's blood testing kit is pretty much up to date, so I'm hoping her machine needs recalibrating. After she did mine, she also tested herself and my Aunt, they both came out on the high side too. I got home from Edimburgh tonight and dig out my (admittedly...

Monday, the end of day 4. I have been faithfully 100% since I started the diet on Friday, it gets easier every day. After my lunchtime shake today I actually felt stuffed. A quick question for all you experienced Lipotrimmers, how long does it takes for ketosis to kick in? My mum (type 2...

Headache!!!!! :cry::cry:

That had me laughing, it's my friend Lily's mantra and she says it often!

I've already cracked and bought a packet of cigarettes. Not good, but better than buying chocolate. Reading the weight loss diaries of other members and recognise myself in them. The desire to lose this weight once and for all. The low self-esteem, measuring myself only by my fat. I am not...

Hi Kellie, I've really enjoyed reading your diary. It is inspirational and thought provoking. Love it! Hula

"Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans." Too right! I'm going to be tested hard over the next few days. A family emergency means I'm going to be driving 250+ tomorrow and staying away from home for a few days. Usually, I would use this as an excuse to let everything go to...

Hi DavinaM It's my first day and first time on Lipotrim too. Best of luck with it. The support that we can get from these forums could really help us make a difference in our lives. Hula x

Thanks for the input peeps. I took on board what you were saying and decided that, on balance, if I had to choose between celebrating the birthdays with food and alcohol or celebrating them being almost a stone lighter, then the booze and food could take a hike! Started Lipo trim today . My...

Day One. So, I had the ok from my GP; I found a chemist that stocks Lipotrim and had a chat with her; I was weighed and measured; I watched the DVD. I am ready to rock and roll! I'm writing this sat at my lappy with my first Lipotrim meal replacement beside me. I started with the chicken soup...

Thanks for the inspiration, Emma. I hope that I will be able to do as well when I get started. GP and chemist tomorrow to get the skinny on how LT works and find out whether I can do it with the meds I'm on.

Hi all I'm a newbie to this forum, all I've done so far is say hi on the general intros boards. I'm seriously considering doing the Lipotrim TFR programme, so far I'm researching; comparing other VLCDs and other options. The things I need to consider are cost, ease of use and how easy it is to...

Thanks for the warm welcome :-) It is support from other people that makes any weight loss journey easier. I'm no stranger to dieting, over the years I must have tried everything including cabbage soup (I hate cabbage), Atkins (Vodka and diet coke has no carbs), WW, SW (about four times, I...

Hi all, they say that inside every fat woman there is a skinny one screaming to get out. It's true. Up until now I've shut her up with chocolate, but the time has come for me to take myself in hand and shift the blubber I've been carting around for the last 18 years. My weight has always been...
