    Day 3 of Lipotrim!! Anybody else just starting??

    Hi Everyone! I thought I'd stop by and see how you're all doing, in the hope that this thread might flag up somewhere. So much has changed since I last visited! How is the S&S plan working for you Tequila? And how are you getting on with the refeed, Becka? I'm pleased to say the high protein...

    Day 3 of Lipotrim!! Anybody else just starting??

    Hi ladies, Well done on the loss, Tequila - outstanding!!! :D I'm sorry to say, I've had bail on the plan. I had intended to go till the end of May but on Monday, I felt so ill and weak and hungry, I really had had enough. The hair in the throat feeling was also driving me up the wall...

    Day 3 of Lipotrim!! Anybody else just starting??

    I picked up my daughters Maltesers last night and said "May I?". She thought I was going to have one but all I did was sniff the bag....ahhhh, what a fab smell! I'm going to do LT up to the end of May, hopefully, as I am then going away for the weekend with the family and I know I'm not going...

    Day 3 of Lipotrim!! Anybody else just starting??

    Afternoon! Hope you're feeling better Tequila? x I feel like I'm coming down with something now... feel a bit snotty and cottonwool-headed. OH had a cold last week and I fear he's passed it on to me. Funny what you say about the sore throat - I thought I had one last week but it never...

    Day 3 of Lipotrim!! Anybody else just starting??

    I wouldn't have thought so? The shakes have all the right nutrients in so it shouldn't create an upset. Might be worth coming off it for a couple of days, to see how you get on and to get your strength back and then go back on it when you're better. If you fall ill again, then maybe have a...

    Day 3 of Lipotrim!! Anybody else just starting??

    Becka makes a very good point - you need to get some good stuff into you so maybe have a refeed so you can take some stronger meds. If it's any consolation, any food that you do eat probably won't stay in your system very long, as I found out when I had the chicken last week :d'oh: I have got...

    Day 3 of Lipotrim!! Anybody else just starting??

    Thank you ladies, I feel much better now all round - an early night, and an evening of my foot up resting on two pillows also helped :) Tequila - I was 7 months pregnant when I got married as well!! I had to make my own wedding dress (since the local wedding gown shops didn't cater for...

    Day 3 of Lipotrim!! Anybody else just starting??

    Oh no! Get well soon Tequila xx Fab losses there, ladies, well done to you :D I have to say, I'm struggling a bit - my mouth is continually dry so I'm drinking loads of water but my foot started swelling up last week so I saw the docs this week and went for blood tests today. I told the nurse...

    Day 3 of Lipotrim!! Anybody else just starting??

    Hi Jester! Well done on your loss, that's brilliant! My husband is shortly going to be cooking tea for him and the others and I know the smell will be lovely, so I shall join him with my chicken soup which I think smells just as lovely!! I had a docs appointment yesterday and told him about...

    Day 3 of Lipotrim!! Anybody else just starting??

    Thank you! :-D I forgot to say that I had to have some chicken last night, because I'd run out of sachets yesterday! I tried some Herbalife formula that my daughters boyf had, using it with water instead of milk and it was fairly bleurgh! So, by half 6 last night, I could have cheerfully chewed...

    Day 3 of Lipotrim!! Anybody else just starting??

    Hi all - had my first weigh-in this morning and I've lost somewhere between 12.5 and 13 pounds, so that's not bad for week 1, eh?! My pharmacist weighs in kilos and my brain works in imperial, hence I've had to convert it and two different online converters gave two different results! Go...

    What to do if you run out of sachets???!

    I'll tell you something - Herbalife powder made with water instead of milk is bleurgh!!!! I used more powder than in a normal HL drink to compensate for the lack of milk and it looked the same but tasted like weak strawberry water. Usually, I try and make my shakes last as long as possible...

    Day 3 of Lipotrim!! Anybody else just starting??

    I've just given in to temptation, as hubby cooked everyone roast lamb today. I just smelled a piece and it was divine, so I had a mouthful - which I then spat out! What a waste, but I think I just missed the sensation of chewing. I've felt really weak the last couple of days and I've had such a...

    What to do if you run out of sachets???!

    I think I'm going to have to - I can't go all day without any kind of nutrition! I think the calorie intake is very similar once you take the milk out of the equation - whether it tastes the same is another matter but I can't be fussy! Thanks for your support Gemsy xx

    What to do if you run out of sachets???!

    Help!! I realised yesterday that I'm going to finish the last of my sachets today, and I'm not due to go back to the pharmacist till Tuesday. When I got my weeks' worth last Monday, I arranged to go in tomorrow to get weighed in and stock up and then it was realised that it is Bank Holiday...

    Day 3 of Lipotrim!! Anybody else just starting??

    I made the mistake of watching Masterchef last night, so I've been dreaming about food ever since! And my head feels like it is full of cotton wool - I went earlier and left the back door wide open with no one home!! Madness! But I'm trying to take my mind off it a bit today by doing some...

    Day 6 - where's the energy???

    I'm now on day 6 and woken up feeling so hungry and there's no sign of this burst of energy that I've heard so much about :-( I was quite looking forward to it, as I had some jobs lined up to do today and really now just feel like vegging on the sofa all day. It also doesn't help that today I...

    Day 3 of Lipotrim!! Anybody else just starting??

    I'm waiting for the burst of energy - doesn't feel like it is ever going to happen! Excellent loss Beck - that's brilliant! I'm all geared up for my first weigh in next Tuesday (I've had to wait because of bank holiday Monday next week) so I'm hoping for a good loss to keep me motivated...

    Day 3 of Lipotrim!! Anybody else just starting??

    I absolutely love the chicken soup! I have mine in a huge mug, like you say it's a cup a soup. So I was gutted tonight when I realised that the pharmacist must have only given me 3 sachets of it, because I've run out! Instead, I had a chocolate shake made with hot water (I'd already got the...

    Confessions of a caring husband!

    I started Lipotrim on Monday this week and resigned myself to having to juggle family meals with preparing my own shakes and soups. However, on Monday, it turned out that my eldest daughter would be sorting out her own tea (she does Slimming World), her boyfriend said he was eating out that...

    Day 3 of Lipotrim!! Anybody else just starting??

    I'm on day 4 and feeling sporadic episodes of weakness and feeling a little light headed but I put that down to my body adjusting itself to this new regime. I'm hoping tomorrow will be the turning point and that I start to feel better. I had such a bad headache yesterday, it felt like my head...

    Boredom and the saviour

    Hi Gemsy! I'm on Day 3 now and have found the same thing. I've decided that I'll take my mind off things by doing an extra chore or two around the house, which will also help make me more active than I would usually be. I know the weekends will be the worst (when I'm not working) so for this...

    Day 3 of Lipotrim!! Anybody else just starting??

    Hi everyone! I'm just coming to the end of Day 2 and finding it hard (not that I'm going to admit it to anyone except the kindred spirits on here!) because this is a whole new way of losing weight for me. I've tried SW before and had good results but it takes time that I don't have. I'm in pain...

    Wetherspoons jacket potato!!!!!!!!!!

    Hi again, The jacket potatoes are oven baked by suppliers, that's all I know. But you can also get similar ones in Iceland which are pre-baked and then frozen. They're reheated in the microwave and tbh, they're lovely! Quite time-saving too :-)) Paula

    can i do this?...... mmmmmmm i wonder

    Hey Pippa! I know when I first joined SW almost 5 years ago, it took me a day or two to actually get to grips with it but then once I had, I didn't look back. I lost loads of weight over the subsequent 14 months and it was only through my own complacency that I ended up putting it all back on -...

    Wetherspoons jacket potato!!!!!!!!!!

    Hi everyone!! I came on here this evening in order to dispel the myth of Wetherspoon's deep-frying their jacket potatoes but I am glad to see that someone else has beaten me to it! I do hope word gets around (don't forget to tell your SW clubs!) as that is the only way this Chinese whisper...

    Brothers Toffee Apple Cider

    For anyone still looking for this information, as this appears to be the only thread about it on here, I have found the info.... a 500ml bottle of Brothers Toffee Apple Cider is 13 syns on original, green or EE. Hmmm.. I might have to stick to the vodka and diet cola for my little alcohol kick...

    Seasoning Syns??

    Hiya! I wouldn't imagine that it's very much, as seasoning is mainly just herbs and spices?? I've had a squizz at the website and the only Morrisons thing that is coming up is Fresh Ideas, Piri Piri Chicken, twin pack, chilled, 148g each at 1.5 syns for EE or Original and 10.5 syns on Green...

    A tale of complacency and McDonalds McChicken sandwich!!

    Love those sentiments in your signature, and I agree with all of them - particularly the first about not letting success go to your head! The info I got about the fries was from a post dating back to 2009 and the value you've posted is actually less than what it was back then! Result! I...

    sw or ww

    I did WW back in 2000 and it workd for me then - but when I regained all my weight, and more, I decided to try SW on the recommendation of a friend who seemed to be eating huge platefuls of food in the canteen at work, and yet she was losing shed-loads of weight! I questioned her about it and...

    A tale of complacency and McDonalds McChicken sandwich!!

    Hello all! I rejoined Slimming World on 7 June 2011, having been a regular member before from May 2007. I lost 5 stone in the following 14 months and was well happy (if not at target). However complacency got the better of me and after letting my membership lapse and trying several times to get...
