    This is it!!

    Just remember that if you slip up unfortunately you need to start all over again as you will slip out of Ketosis, stay strong and away from the toast, drink plenty as this really does help with the hunger pangs and will make you lose the weight quicker too. x

    Thanks Minusfour. Well lets hope the battered burger and chips I had last night doesn't cause it all to go back on. I hadn't eaten all day and my partner pleaded with me to go to the chippie cos he hadn't had chips for so long and I just didn't have it in me to say no.:o On the flip side...

    Barb's going at it a little differently!

    You're quite right Barb, in the past I've always raced to lose the weight and always put it back on because what I have been doing is unsustainable, this time my doctor has advised that I try to lose from half a pound to a pound a week. Keep going your doing great.

    I've just managed to put a profile picture up of myself, but in the interest of full disclosure should probably say that I was 4 stone lighter here, after being on LL, unfortunately, I have put all that weight back on plus, in fact, I am now, one pound lighter than I was when I started lighter...

    Well something I said must have got through, it still isn't solved the issue not by a long shot, he still feels that at this time he can not see himself ever getting married or having children again, however, he has been depressed due to not being in work (which thankfully he is again now), and...

    Jo's diary, a woman walking in Wales

    Well if I thought I was down a couple of days ago nothing in comparison to what I'm feeling now, my partner who I love dearly, has just told me that under no circumstances will he get married or have any more children and due to this thinks it would be better for us to split now. We've been...

    Thanks minusfour, yeah my clothes definitely do feel looser, maybe more so than the weight I've lost too, which is weird, however this is the first time I've ever tried to lose weight using exercise, so maybe I'm just changing shape?? I've got a dress from Wallis that a friend gave me and it...

    Felt really rubbish yesterday so all I really ate was a sandwich and fruit, I need to be careful that I don't start doing that too often as otherwise I may not be eating enough. Had a rest day yesterday due to feeling so rubbish, today I've been swimming with my little sister again, managed...

    That sounds great, I managed to fit into a pair of trousers last week that I had put aside for the attic cos they were much too small, it's a great feeling isn't it. Well done.

    Yesterday was not a good day, was really down, I've been a student for the past year and still haven't started work yet, I have bills coming out of my ears and all my loans have started to default on me so yesterday I just sat and cried all day.:cry: I really wanted to go to the shop and but...

    Well after being lazy for a couple of days (food kept ok though so damage limitation) yesterday decided to go on the Just dance for the Wii. Good god I thought I was going to die at one point, I am not as fit as I had hoped after a month, my arms felt like they were going to fall off. I...

    Please can someone tell me how much excersize I can do on a VLCD?

    Hi, I did Lighter life a couple of years ago and we were warned that too much exercise would actually be detrimental to our weight loss and if you wanted to do anything to go on gental walks, we were told not to go to the gym until after we had started maintenance. I agree with Lass321 that...

    Fizzy Jelly

    My Nanna was a diabetic but she loved sweet stuff so she used to make sugar free jelly a lot. It got a bit boring so she started to experiment, she would add, a quarter of a pint of boiling water to melt the jelly, then quarter of a pint to cool it down before adding half a pint of diet...

    'Tinned tuna contains no healthy omega-3 fatty acids

    Hmm, I always assumed that they did, unfortunate for me cos Tuna out of a tin is one of the only fishs I like (fish and chips from the chippy doesn't count either I'm guessing) Lol

    OK after doing really well on wednesday things seem to have gone to pot slightly. Haven't done any exercise since, so will have to go on Just dance later if hope to get any exercise done, plus had full bottle of Rose wine to myself last night, hmmm probably not a good idea, however food wise...

    hair falling out????????argggggggg????

    Unfortunately yes hun it can be a side affect, however once you increase your calorie intake at the end of your weight loss journey this will stop and your hair will regrow. I did Lipotrim a couple of years back and this was the advice that the lady gave to us at the time. Your doing really...
