Hi Emmy - Lu, I remember you from the last time I did Lipotrim last year, you did so well!! I'm starting back today, have had four weeks off after losing 2 stone in 5 weeks. Do you think my losses will be less or about the same as first time round? I remember you restarting after having a...

Hello. I am thinking of starting back tomorrow after having four weeks off...I lost 2 stone in about 4/5 weeks last time and have maintained the loss quite well. Do you think I'll have the same kind of losses this time or will it be slower? Thanks Lisa

Hello all, hope you are doing well! I haven't been on here lately, firstly because I've decided not to weigh until I finish as whatever the result it puts me off and secondly, I've been struggling and didn't want to come on here feeling negative....I've realised now that's a little selfish as...

Ooh, harsh!! That's a big difference, I'd definitely ring around...shouldn't rip people off for trying to get healthy! Xx

Hey there! I thought it was a standard price, I pay £36 per week but it was on offer in August for £26 so bought a few weeks in advance to save the funds!

Hey Kelly, welcome to the forum and good on you for starting, day one is always the worst!! Hope you made it through but I had a few day bone attempts before success so don't fret if not, just go for it again tomorrow! The hunger will pass, my life revolves around food and drink normally but...

I have all the same answers as you hez!! :) It's the 4th tomorrow already, we'll be posting our final September stats before we know it so stay strong girls! It's strange not feeling hungry whatsoever but then again, don't think I've actually felt hungry for a long time...never allowed myself...

Thanks for the replies girls, much appreciated! Ooh, I needed that rant this morning, first time it really got to me. Was off work so got myself out for the day which helped and kept my mind off things. You're all right in what your saying, I'd like to get to see him after all this time...

Hey there t1506, you getting on ok? X

Having a bit of a down day today. On day 6 and it's going well, I'm not going to cave or anything as my mind is set now but it just seems so frustrating and never ending!! I've put myself in this position, only I can get myself out of it but it just feels like my life is on hold. I know I sound...

I genuinely think the water in take makes a big difference so try and get it down...I see it as my challenge every day! I never used to drink water before, as in ever! Surprising how quickly you can get used to it though If you are dehydrated then your liver does some of the work for your...

If you've got a sore throat then gargling salt water (as hot as you can stand) helps x

Oh no. I remember from last time that there is pretty much nothing, I'm about as helpful as that girl ;) Eucalyptus extract mixed into hot water in a bowl and your head hung over will help clear so may ease your cough a little...

That's incredible, another 6, it's literally flying off you at the rate of knots!! Include it, it's September - our game our rules! ;) x

That's more than doable lipostruggler!! Stick with it and those 21 pounds will be gone before you know it! Water is the key so get drinking, just not too much at once...I drink 3 litres throughout the day. I'm only on day 5 and I feel better already, first day I've woken up without a headache...

Love this challenge, great idea!! God I'd love to stop 2 stone this month!! Keep us posted on your weigh in Helen...surely today will count towards it, it is September after all!! Or count half the pounds you lose towards september a goal, 50/50 ;) xx

Wow, now that's some inspiration, that's an insane amount of weight loss...you must feel amazing!! Well done, 100% can be achieved then. I'd say those two events are time off the diet worthy! I go to Portugal two weeks today for ten nights, was there in May with a friend...going back with my...

I'm going to albufeira two weeks today, ha ha!! Bloody love that place x

I'm in!! I've just started so I want to drop 21 pounds...aiming high!!

Thanks for the reply hez! :) Just finishing day three and glad the headaches have appeared to bugger off and leave me alone! Work tomorrow so if the weekend has seen me through the initial hell then I'm hoping I'll get through the rest of the week :) Quite like the shakes actually, they're...

Thanks for the reply! Now I've started I'm ok, getting going is so difficult...I work with people who are addicted to drugs and alcohol and my behaviour with food mirrors theirs in so many ways it scary - I literally feel like I'm breaking an addiction but I'll get there, feels different this...

My weigh in is on Friday, I work shifts so can't always make it on the same day but as I only actually got going yesterday it'll work out quite well! Today is a new day, start as you mean to go on :) x

You're amazing goose, I wish somebody would put me to sleep and wake me up in 8 weeks...would be so much easier!! ? Has it dragged or flown by....or bit of both! ? X

Don't beat yourself up about it, draw a line under it and move on. After telling you to be strong yesterday I caved so we're all only human! Day one is actually completed for me now, first day is always a sticking point. Did you stay 100% yesterday after? Xx

Hiya, thank you for the reply :) You're right, there's only one way to find out and that's to stick to it and see what happens so that's what I'll do!! How are you getting on?

I've just started so aiming high. I'd love to join you, please will you put me down for 21lb :)

Deep breath and calm down, you've started and that's the main thing!! If you drink 3 litres a day and stay 100% then I think you could lose 2 stone by then easy! Regardless what you weigh you'll be a damn sight lighter than what you are now. Don't panic, you can't change anything in the past...

Hey Helen, how are you getting on? X

???? we're supposed to be smiley faces, not sure why it doesn't work, hmmmm

It's ok, so far so good but it is only day one, ha! Really hoping I can do at least a full 7 weeks, I know the 12th October is going to arrive regardless of what I do in the meantime and if I get to that date and haven't stuck to it I'll be gutted!!! Don't go for the meal, no no no!! It's one...

9lb is amazing, you must be so pleased - well done!! Getting passed week one must be a big mental achievement! Xx

The day has arrived, quite looking forward to getting started. I'm off work until next week so thought now is a good time in case I feel a bit rough the first few days! Plan for the day is three shakes, cup of green tea and three litres of water....fingers crossed! Anyone else starting today? Xx

Thanks for the reply both, much appreciated! I suppose the only way to find out is to stop speculating and get on with it so that's what I'll do! Hoping my positivity continues ?

Hello all. I am starting shakes tomorrow, been to the to get all my supplies today! I'm currently 14 stone 2 , 5foot 4.5 and I'm really really hoping I could lose 3 stone in 7/8 weeks - do you think that's even remotely achievable!? ? Thanks all :) xx

Ah, thank you so much!! That's given me the kick I need....stay 100%, 3 litres of water a day and fingers crossed!! Feeling motivated ?? xx

Neither!! ? Tried both and it's like chewing wood!!

Hello all. I am starting Lipotrim tomorrow, been to the pharmacy to get all my supplies! I'm currently 14 stone 2 , 5foot 4.5 and I'm really really hoping I could lose 3 stone in 7/8 weeks - do you think that's even remotely achievable!? ? Thanks all :) xx

Pah, that's nothing! Bet it's gone already :) x

Thanks Jackie, I'm going for it now...got nine weeks to lose 3 stone 6, argghhhh! Going to give it my best, can do no more! Off work until Saturday thank god, will hopefully feel better by then :) Roll on weigh in next week, ha! X

Yes, bring it on!! How many weeks have you both managed so far? X

Hasn't gone well Jackie, getting started has been a battle with my brain! I'm on it today though, definitely...not dwelling on not doing it before, just getting on with it now! Bring on day one...again, ha! X

Morning! I've tried one a few times and they are great, a lot harder than it looks but it works and isn't too tiring, takes more stamina than energy! I think vibrio plates, walking and 30 day shred are perfect for Lipotrim...effective but not too intense! x

Well done jackie4, great result :) xx

Good luck for getting back into the full swing tomorrow, you'll do brilliantly I'm sure! :) Keep us posted xx

Yes, shakes all day and I don't like vanilla so stuck with chocolate and strawberry, ha! I do measure half vanilla and half chocolate or strawberry powder though and have a choc/vanilla or vanilla/strawberry...that's yum!

4 stone, amazing willpower! Good effort. How are you doing this time? :)

I normally use dentylPH, it's alcohol free which is what's we need :)

Well done on kebab avoidance...weekends are a nightmare!! Glad I work done weekends, takes away the stress! Wish I likes the soup but I just couldn't like it last time, I tried! Will have to settle for hot chocolate instead :) xx

I've also done Lipotrim before, and cambridge. Prefer the restriction of Lipotrim so sticking with this. Feel like a seasoned pro...it works so well and it so easy to keep off after - why don't I ever do it!! Stupid foot, I was doing well. I will keep it off this time, I will!!

Great advice jesi, love that mindset!! So is today day four foxeey!? :) xx

Hello all! I've commented a few times but thought I'd link into this too :) My name is Lisa, I'm 32 and I'm from Wales. I'm a counsellor for the homeless working with ex offenders, mental health issues and addictions...ironic! We send many of our residents to detox and I see this as mine...

I'm doing ok!! Made sure to keep myself busy...been posting items to sell on eBay, it takes loads of time so the day has flown by and I'll hopefully earn some money for my holidays :) I'd normally be eating constantly, I need to break that habit!! X

Seven weeks, wow, well done Allanah, inspiration :) xx

I always think like that, it keeps things in perspective!! I'm a counsellor for the homeless and it never fails to give me a reality check. This diet is hard and there's no denying it, especially with serious food issues....I definitely have those!! But if we take a calm moment to think...

I love Egypt!! We go every year, sometimes twice if I can...we're going again in September. Where are you staying? Get out a bikini, swimsuit or outfit that you want to wear and leave it where you can see it every day or take a picture and save it as your screen saver on your phone...motivation...

Don't panic like I do and take a breath, it's ok...as much as the sun is out it'll probably rain again next week and we've got lots of time before the sun is accompanied by heat! :) What are your downfalls? Try and take it one day at a time as opposed to maybe thinking of how long you'll be on...

Thanks chunkychops, I really hope so!! I'd be so happy :)

Not long now, good on you! Can't wait to hear your results on Tuesday :) x

Ah, thank you so much for replying and thanks for the encouragement...nice to hear someone agree that it's not out of reach!! I'd love so much to be that weight, then I could go away on holiday, maintain as much as possible and lose the last stone and a bit on ww. Will definitely be coming on...

Hello all! I've been a member of this forum before and starting again today...for the last time!! It works so well, I've no idea why it all goes wrong, going to join WW after I finish to give myself some structure. Anyway, I've got ten weeks, i'm 5 foot 5, 14 stone 5 and I'd like to be 10...

That's amazing!! Do you mind me asking your start weight? I'm trying g to roughly judge how much I could lose in 10 weeks :) x

Wow, you look amazing. Congratulations xx

Hey Linda, 5 pound is great, you should be over the moon :) I agree, I bet your second week will be higher than others, some people just don't retain as much water as others and that accounts for quite a bit of the first week loss. Watwr is they key, definitely helps with the speed of...

Hey foxee, how are you getting on? Holidays are always good goals, I'm going to Venice and Portugal in May so that's my goal...where are you going? X

Hey jackie4, how are you getting on? Nice to get each day out of the way isn't it...I'm on day 1 and really looking forward to day 7 and first weigh in! :) x

I've tried exante and cambridge and I agree that the weight loss on Lipotrim is definitely faster! No idea why specifically or if that's even accurate for everyone else but for me I think it's because of the strict structure of it and it is the lowest in terms of calories. I have real issues...

Hey Sk2, when did you start? Think the dread can be because we know what to expect! It isn't easy is it but it can be done and the rewards are so fast and amazing - stick with it! :) x

I've lost 12 pounds! I'm over the moon, out of the 14 stone something bracket and I'm never going back into it! Bring on week two

Karinau - go for it! It really is amazing, just 5 days in and I genuinely feel slimmer already! The forum is great to keep you occupied, come on whenever you can and we can all keep each other motivated! We'll be slim in no time girls :) xx

Amoswyllie - fab weight loss, well done! Hope I get that, weigh in on Saturday, eek! Been in work the last two days, 12 hour shifts so they fly by and helps pass the day. Also moving house so this is a great time to do LT, I'm so busy that I haven't got time to eat even if I wanted to! You...

Welcome Karinau! I started last Saturday but tried to start every day for a week before that, hard to get going isn't it! I am relieved now the first few days are over so when you wake up ready to do it go for it and by day 5 it'll be a case of mind over matter as opposed to hunger! I'm...

Mburke! Welcome back. I'm on day 5 and it's a breeze now so get your head down, will the first 4 days to pass and you'll be fine. Don't kick yourself about coming back, you have come back and that's the main thing, you also haven't put on all the weight you lost since last September, that is no...

I'll definitely be here for the June challenge, going nowhere until the end of July :)

Hi Debbie! Good luck for your first week, it'll fly by I'm sure! I started Saturday so my first weigh in is Saturday too, I'll be keeping my eyes put for your progress... Good luck xxx

Refeeding - not referring :)

I agree with missy3. Have done both and there is so much variety on cambridge that its not strict enough and I find myself wanting to eat food, ketosis or no ketosis! There's shakes, soups, bars, vegetable drink flavourings, water flavourings etc etc which is all good but not for me as I need...

Hey kaijo, your not alone!! We're all going to feel like that but we're in this together and the end result will be a better feeling than all the bad ones put together! Not sure how old your son is but try and both have an early night, I do that if I am having a bad day...gets it over quicker...

Ha ha!! That's very funny Chlo :) At least the intention was there! Xx

Honk for day one of 11 weeks...only 76 days to go :)

Emmy-lu. I'm sure you'll be able to carry on losing, you can't have tha much more to lose though surely! I felt tiny when I was 10 stone and i'm 5ft5 so not far off the same statistics as you. I'd love to lose what you have in 10 weeks, i'd be over the moon! Let us know how your weigh in goes on...

I'd love to join please, that will help my motivation no end! I weigh on a Satuday (started today) and as i'm just starting out i'd like to lose 20 pounds!! Aim high :)

Well done, that's fab!

Emmy-lu You've done so amazingly well losing four stone, that's fab! How tall are you? You must be looking forward to refeeding, how exciting! I've taken lots of what you said and stored it firmly in my brain, if my losses are anything like yours then i'll be over the moon! Congratulations...

Hey Kaijo, how did the rest of your evening go! It is horrible when you feel like that and impossible to get it off your mind, maybe a long hot bath with some candles, an early night with a book or going for a walk might help..anything to get your mind off the dreaded hunger! Now you are on...

Thank you for all of your advice and that was a very good point Starlit-Cazza, didn't even think about the customs think! I looked into and Egypt is fine so thank you, that definitely would've resulted in me panicking at the airport! I am going to give it my best and try to get through 100%...

Well done, that's amazing -what a milestone! You must be so pleased...if ever there was a motivator to carry on then that's it! x

Hello! Let us know how weigh in goes, i'm starting today so could do with the motivation, roll on next week! I drink a lot of green tea, the decaf one is much less bitter than the original one and really nice, you should give it a go, tetley do a nice one. jojo-78 - I like your reasoning that...

Pah, that's bad timing isn't it! The thing is with this is that something is always going to get in the way. I think the best thing to do is what Emmy-lu has advised, it doesn't have to be a meal, an evening walk somewhere, a massge, a swim and jacuzzi...there's lots of things to do that you'll...

I aim to have mine at midday, 4pm and 8pm - trying to spread them out so i feel like i'm having three meals...well. sort of!

amoswyllie! How are you doing today, i've had a staggered start over the last two days so only starting today...can't wait until he next few days are over with, i'm in work all weekend so that helps! I am also a bridesmaid in August so trying to sort it before panic sets in and i don't have...

Thank you both for the advice, that's what I was hoping to hear and is much appreciated...always comforting to know somebody has been in the same situation and succeeded! Missy3 - That's a good way to look at it and exactly what I'm going to do. Sunb, sea, relaxing, pool, sightseeing, shopping...

I was wondering if anyone had managed to stay 100% on plan whilst on holiday? I've just started but am due to go to Egypt in 5 weeks and can't really come off it as I'm losing weight for a wedding and the timescale is really tight!! Wondered if anyone had managed to do it? I'm sure it can...

Hello. I am due to start lipotrim today or tomorrow, I keep putting it off! I am bridesmaid for my friends wedding in 16 weeks but have the hen in 12 weeks and need to lose 4 stone. I'm 14 stone now and 5 foot 5. If I stick to it 100%, exercise and drink loads of water do you think this is...

I've got the Cambridge fibre. I put two teaspoons in my green tea each day and I've had no trouble at all x

Glad your coming back lancs girl :)

Day 8! Glad to make it to week two. Today was a breeze, really settling into the routine now. Worked until 8 so still got one shake left, bring busy in work is my saviour and the amount of times I'm legging it up and down the stairs I must be doing loads of unintentional exercise :) if every day...

Thanks so much for that surfhunny, I'll just carry on with the water levels etc then. So relieved, prgorammes shouldn't throw words in like that without proper explanation....not impressed with that bit of the programme at all... thanks again :)

Ok, great - thanks for that! Where can I get them from? Do I do them every morning? X

Oh, by the way - well done nic, you were fab x

I'm now having a fit about ketone acidosis!? I've never even heard of it...is that why we have to drink so much water, to flush them out!?

Days six yesterday - went ok, only had one shake though and not much water as worked 8 till 8 and it was insanely busy, barely got chance to sit down! Good day though, made it through. Day seven! First week weigh in today and I lost one whole stone! Very pleased as I had 4 stone to lose and...

Nip and fab - I'll try that too! :)

Oh my god, you must be so excited! I'm so intrigued by your journey and goal, it's like reading a book - I can't wait for the next page...looking forward to seeing your denim dress pictures, your husband is going to be gob smacked, I love it! Your such an inspiration, congratulations x

Thanks for the soap and glory firminator tip, definitely going to get that! I tried using the palmers one but I'm allergic to something in it and it brought me out in lumps :( allergic to aloe vera so might be that. Anyway - thanks, I'm off to boots! :)

Wow, below 9 stone, that's amazing - it's a long time till I'll be able to say that! Well done on your loss, that's brilliant and I bow down to you - doing Cambridge on your birthday, your a better woman than me, that must take will power of steel! X

Thanks everyone, I'm even more over the moon now I've tasted the Cambridge vegetable flavouring to make a cup a soup type thing, bought it this morning and it's amazing! Have had loads of support on this site all week - thanks all! :)

Thanks, I'm really pleased! I had four stone but three now :) want to get as much off in the 12 weeks cos I'm not doing it longer than that. Let me know how you get on....x

I'm so pleased as I've lost a stone!!! Had four to lose and in the blink of an eye it's three - this diet may be difficult at times but the weigh ins make all the bad days seem not so bad! Glad week one is over, roll on week two! :)

Had my first weigh in this morning and I've lost a stone!!! Over the moon :) x

Well done Sarah, that's a cracking start! x

Brilliant, I knew you'd do it - well done! :) x

I find it inspiring too, have had such a bad day and in one hour I'm feeling more positive again! That's going to be my Monday motivation to spur me onto Wednesday weigh in's over the next few weeks

Good luck! When are you starting? How much are you looking to lose? x

That's what I've decided too, I'm on this till 7th April so not going anywhere until then, I couldn't face it! x

Nthing too outrageous as the title suggest but I'm on day five and desperately willing Wednesday to arrive for the big first weigh in! I've decided that every Wednesday I'm going to treat myself to a bottle of coke zero - surely that will be ok? A small weekly treat will help keep me on track...

I can't believe that, just showed my boyfriend as he was in total shock too! Been having a bad day but you've just spurred me on no end....you look absolutely incredible!! How long did you SS for? X

Day 5 :( Feeling a bit down today. Got a slight headache and I'm fed up. I'm not hungry, it just seems forever away until I finish...12 weeks and I haven't even finished week one yet. I know I'm not going to give in, not worried about that but if anything it makes it more annoying cos I know I'm...

Thanks for that - going to have a nose in a bit x

Ha! That's really funny because Saturday night I dreamt that I was eating chicken crisps and was really upset and annoyed - the relief when I woke up was incredible! Then I fell back to sleep and dreamt I was eating a toblerone, I never eat toblerone or chicken crisps....salt and vinegar crisps...

How exciting - definitely going to watch that and biggest loser tonight! Hope they're not too negative, I've only just convinced my friends to stop giving me grief, don't want them to have new ammunition!

Good luck! You'll be fine and we're all here to pick you up when your not! The good days far outweigh the bad and the results far outweigh the pain! X x

How exciting - let me know how you get on!! Have a good day x

It can definitely be done and is also normal! I lost 13 pound in my first week last time I did the diet. If you have then that's an amazing loss and surely makes all the pain worth it! I always think how much money I've wasted stuffing myself with food which has resulted in me being fat, unhappy...

When is your 1st weigh in Sarah...getting on ok? X

Day 4! Today has been fine apart from still having toothache, random. It definitely helps being in work, have only just had my last shake cos it was so busy I didn't even think about it!! I need to do extra shifts to fill my time but can't find the motivation, want to start going to the gym too...

Glad it's not just me - bizarre eh....our teeth are probably wondering why they aren't constantly chewing food anymore :)

Also - read your post about day four....look at it if your having a bad day :) x

Hey lancsgirl! I replied to this post earlier and it didn't send - hope it's not too late! Don't give up, the shaking etc will pass and you'll come out the other side feeling fine. If you give up now then you'll have to go through all the physical and mental barriers again - think of how great...

Hiya josie - welcome! Everyone is very friendly on here so you'll find it a great support. I started the same day as you but the 1st three days haven't been half as bad as the last two times I did this and I know it's down to this site....being able to write a diary and have encouragement when...

Ok - day three! Another good day! Being in work for 12 hours has helped so I've decided to work some extra shifts whilst I'm on SS to keep me busy and it'll mean I can have more time off when I'm thin and fabulous! :) wondering why the carb withdrawal headaches etc haven't kicked in - am I just...

That's amazing, you must be over the moon - makes the pain all worth while eh! Well done :)

Thank you! sounds like a good plan, it'll fill my time that I would normally spend eating! :)

Which I'd better, the beck book or the marisa peer one? I seriously need to get one to break this ridiculous self destructive food habit of mine!

Ah, thanks for that, it's nice to be made to feel welcome! :) Ha, they're not cruel, they're great. I turn into a bit of a feeder when I'm on the Cambridge, suggesting everyone eats what I'd like to! Also, I always pretend that I'm not concerned even if I'm having a bad day to stop people saying...

Thanks Steve, I've been reading your thread too and to be able to do Cambridge whilst all those bikers are eating and drinking around you is a serious achievement, you must have will power of steel! Will be keeping an eye on how your doing too so good luck! :)

Good effort on getting into the 17's kimmie, you'll be in the 16's before you know it! Determinator - that sounds very confusing with your nightshifts and shakes, sounds like you've got it all planned out though! Day 2 today and still feeling positive if not a bit light headed and have got a...

Well done chelly that's a brilliant 1st week loss, hope mine is that good. April is my goal too, you'll be feeling like a new woman by then! Great start :) x

Day two! Woohoo, I will never have to go through day one again. That's the way I'm going to approach these 12 weeks, each day I complete is gone forever cos I'm not doing the diet a fourth time, this is 3rd time lucky and that's it! Feeling positive today, a little light headed but the scales...

Ha, right I'll remember that one from now on, apart from the usual lol etc I'm useless at those, I must be getting old! :) I was on the shakes last year during the summer and BBQ season and it was sheer hell, my family take any excuse to have a BBQ and I was stuck on the shakes, it's so much...

Oh no, I'm useless at those....hmmm, ROTFL, what does that stand for!? :)

He he, well said! What I meant was by then we should be at goal eating a quorn low fat burger and a diet lemonade spritzer! :)

Setting small goals is definitely the best idea, the end result seems too big and too far away! I've worked out that I'll be on this for 84 days...I'm going to take it in steps of 10 so I've only got 8 goals and 4 days at the end which will be bliss! I'm considering not even finding out what my...

Thanks for that, it will be a good post to look back to on bad days! Can't wait until I can say I'm on day 18, seems so far away but I'm feeling positive so bring it on! I'm also going to fight harder to maintain the loss this time, I've let it slip far too easily before...as good and...

Well it's the end of my first day and I'm feeling good. 12 weeks is daunting but I'm sure this is the most determined I've ever felt and I've got so much to look forward to in April that the incentive is huge! I can't give in, April is going to arrive regardless of what I do between now and then...

Thanks both! I know it's only day one but I'm feeling really positive too...this site helps no end, when I struggled in the past there was nobody to turn to who understood so knew what to say to make me carry on - this site is different! :) How much are you going to lose? Note I said going to...

Glad your feeling a bit better, I'm sure we'll feel stronger the more time that passes...the first weigh in will be a huge boost! Ignore everyone else, my friends were saying the same the last two times I've done it but this time I've tried to make them understand just how down I am and now...

3 pounds and your only on day 3, that's brilliant. Just think, it'd take you at least a week to lose that on any other diet! Don't give up, if we give up then we'll have to go through the pain of starting again at some point, if I'd just stuck to it the last two times then I wouldn't be in this...

Well, I'm going away in April - have an all inclusive night booked in a spa hotel on 20th April with my boyfriend and then going away for a week with all his family to bluestone in wales and he has three sisters who have had children and are size eight fitness freaks..we've booked a spa so need...

I need to lose 4 stone in 12 weeks of SS...I'm 13 stone and I need to be 9, do you think that's possible!? Eek!

Can't say anymore than what everyone else has, your amazing, you should bottle your will power and sell it! Congratulations, talk about new year, new start...you've got a new life! When I'm having a down day I'm going to look at this thread, incredible achievement! x

Lauren - your diary is so inspiring and a great read! If I have even a smidge of your enthusiasm and success then this hopefully won't be as hard as I think it's going to be! You look amazing in your new years eve photo, your husband won't recognize you, what a fab incentive for you and an out...

Well today is day one of the rest of my life, sounds dramatic but that's how I feel. I truly feel like I've hit rock bottom with my weight and so the only way can be up! I've tried Cambridge on two occasions previously and have had great success, the only problem being that I never gave myself...

Hiya everyone! Just been reading the whole thread and found it really inspiring! I'm starting today after putting it off every day since 4th January! I'm really excited and feel completely ready and motivated to do something about my weight loss once and for all! I work with homeless people who...

Let me know how your doing tomorrow! :)

Everyone seems to have different reactions, I know headaches etc are the norm but our bodies are strange things and they react in completely different ways. Hopefully you'll feel better tomorrow but if not then maybe you are coming down with something...have defintely heard of some experiencing...

Stick with it and see how you feel in the morning. I'm starting tomorrow but the last two times I've done it I felt like hell on day three but woke up on day 4 feeling a lot better! Well done on doing the first three days, day 3 is notoriously hard - hit the sack and see how you feel tomorrow... X

Well done for getting to day three, one day at a time and before you know it you will have done 12 weeks! I'm starting tomorrow :( have done the Cambridge two times before and as painful as it was The results are amazing! How much do you want to lose? x

12 days in, that's brilliant, can't wait till I can say that! You'll definitely do that, you'll be in Florida looking fab! :)

Good plan! Well good luck for tomorrow, I'll be coming on to keep me motivated and entertained so keep me posted on hoe your doing! x

Good plan! Good luck for day one...I'll be on here tomorrow so keep me posted! :)

That's still a stone in two weeks - impossible on any diet so surely worth all the pain...well in theory anyway! :) I'm starting tomorrow :( was meant to start on the 4th and have been starting 'tomorrow' every day since then! I'm going away 14 weeks tomorrow so have to be slim and to be...

I was told it would be a bad idea too but more in terms of intensive exercise. I do intend on going to the gym as often as possible bit will just be doing toning exercises and power walking on the treadmill, just so I can get into the routine of going if nothing else! We've both got four stone...

Hiya! That's a brilliant first loss, i'll be over the moon if I lose anywhere near that! I've got 63 pound to lose so we're basically in the same position! x

Good luck to the both of you. The one good thing about returning is that you know it works, we'll be so pleased in 12 weeks and feeling fab! x
