wow nikki! your weight loss so far has been fantastic! you must be thrilled : ) x

hi nat, this is my 2nd time starting too. the first time round i felt like crap for about a week but then it was bearable. This time i havn't had headaches or anything, i havn't even felt hungry. I feel a bit guilty for having it so easy..that's why i don't post too much info, i don't want...

I think it's great you've posted, now we can look out for you. If you go onto lipotrims website, they should list all the pharmacies that participate in this program. cutting down the carbs and upping the water can only help x

well dun jan! xx

honk and honk for yesterdat 2!

Indeed! lol Yayyyyy

welcome sarah and kimson x kimsom i love that quote..it may have to be my new mantra! 'nothing tastes as good as skinny feels!'

i'm having my second shake now, just going make it, hang in there, you'll be fine x

Thank you, yes i'm well pleased...with both...in fact the WI made me happier! New job, new start, new me...... Thanks everyone for your support, it really really helps x

Well done jacko, that's a great loss! aren't you glad you carried on? hope your little one is ok now?

ahh ssusee!! Thats brilliant, well done! It's really good seeing people weighing in at 12, 14, 16 weeks etc, it keeps me motivated! congrats again x

well done on your loss!!! fantastic!! x

brilliant! well done jen x

That's great sm, you must be thrilled!

409!

For a woman it is £36 a week slightly more for a man. Lipotrim is both a pharmacy and GP program, so it's up to you. However, in saying that, it's always wise to consult your gp before you plan to go on any of these type of diets.

congratulations! that's great!

However, in saying that, we are allowed earl grey tea (it even says it on the lipotrim bag) yet earl grey is flavoured with bergamot, which is a citrus fruit grown for its essential oils.... it's all very confusing!!!!

What type of raspberry leaf tea are you buying? The only ones i have seen have apple pomade in the ingredients..and i'm sure this isn't allowed? The juice does sound yummy though!

When i did LT 5 years ago i went to london for a week to visit friends. I was quite happy having my shakes whilst going out to restaurants etc (it was my friends who had the problem with it). i did miss not having a drink in the evenings with them but i kept focusing on the end result. If you...

Well done shaz! thats a great loss x

You'll be fine lenni xx

I got my shaker from my pharmacist too, he gave it to me, i think they usually charge about 4.95? but like shaz says, you can get them in tesco and asda. I usually put a bit of water in the container first, add the powder and give a good stir, then i shake it. (When i was in uni, it worked for...

Hi CC, try fibrogrl, you can get it at the pharmacy or online. Mkae sure you don't get the orange flavoured one though(even though it tastes better!) as this has sugars and citric acid in it. You should check out the lipotrim forum, you'll find some grest information(and support) there....that's...

Hi diamond, you're absolutely right about changing lifestyles etc, but i would guess that the majority of people who make the decision to start lipotrim or any other tfr diet have tried everything else. It's not a decision that's made easily, it usually feels like it's a last resource. It's...

HI lovell01h, any type of 'leaf' tea, so green tea, white tea, earlgrey, peppermint. Just make sure when you purchase it you check the ingredients as some add fruits etc. x

Hi guys, sorry for not posting sooner, my internet was off all weekend!! Interview went ok, should find out this week..... also just been offered a job i interviewed for 2 weeks ago!! Yayyyy! Thanks for all your well wishes, its paid off x

Good luck lenni! and remember, you're not alone, there's loads of us here who 'completely understand' what you're going through, so use us if you need to chat/vent/scream xxx

Hi jez, sorry for the tardy response, i have had no internet connection all weekend!! How did you get on? Initially i'm looking to lose 3 stone, but ideally it will be 5 stone. According to all the statistics i should be between 7 1/2 an 9 1/2 stone. I'd be happy at 11, I've no intention of...

Thanks mrs m, i'll let you all know how i get on xx

we've both gone down to the next stone on the scales...thats worth a YAAAAAYYYYYYYYY!

Thanks jez, i'm really happy with that! i didn't loose that much the first time round in 2006, think i lost 9lbs? week 2 to focus on now xxx

I lost a stone! i was 16.10 last week and 15.10 this week. ok one down one to go, going to get ready for my interview now! thanks for all your support, keep your fingers crossed for this one too xxxx

oops, soorry , i meant loss!

Tha't a great loos for week 2! well done!

I've lost a stone! Started last week at 16.10 and this week was 15.10:)

Yay well done jez, 10lbs is a fab loss, plus it puts you in a differebt stone weight! I'm off to get weighed now, be back soon!! x

Thanks guys, i'll let you know how i get on x

I have my first weigh in tomorrow and then have to go straight to an interview! Fingers x'd i get a good outcome on both!

Hi glitters, you and i are about the same height and weight? we could be twins, lol XX

Hi jojo, did you restart? x

Hi tm11, i'm swimming 3 times a week but thats what i've always done, i intend to start going back to the gym but not just yet. I'm going to ease myself back into it x

katy, your weight loss so far is great, i love reading how much everyone is losing, it really motivates me!

159 x

I don't know how much the other diets are ,i'm currently paying £36 a week for lipotrim x

Thats a great loss hun! don't know why you'd be disappointed with that? x

Have things settled down AJM? x

Hi nix, welcome back! when are you going to new york?

Well done lou x

It is difficult aymee, try and do things to occupy yourself. My little jack russell has never had so many walks! I wemt to the movies the other afternoon, saw the kings speech which was really quite good... the only thing was my stomach was rumbling the whole way through! I was convinced...

Yay!! well done paula, that's great xx

tha's a great first week loss jan, well done x

Well done missy! x

Honk! weigh in tomorrow!

I think it's a great idea, your house sounds lovely sandra x

well done, thats a fab loss so far! xx

I have my first weigh in on friday, i'll be happy if i have a 7lb loss! well done x

I saw it, was interesting... Lighterlife nxt week, maybe we'll be week after?

Exactly!! it is a loss! x

You've lost over a stone in 3 weeks! the weight loss will slow down and some people only loose 3 or 4 lbs a week. When i first did lipotrim 5 years ago, i had a big loss the first week and then it was always around 5lbs. Keep going chick, you're doing great xxx

that's meant to say GOOD! x

Ps Godd luck for tomorrow paula x

hi paul, thats a good suggestion from irene, if we wrote down everything that passed our lips during the day, we'd be surprised! substituting diet soda for regular soda (if you drink that), will make a difference. Increase your water intake too, i can't stress how important water is xx good luck x

hi paula, stay off the scales!! stick to getting weighed once a week, if not you'll become obsessed and upset if you don't seem to have lost.I threw my scales out before i restarted lipotrim this time, for purely that reason! Does your friend know you're doing this diet? If she does i'm sure...

Hi paul, well done with taking the first step, are you following a diet like weight watchers, slimming world etc...or are you just planning on cutting out the junk?

Honk, and still another shake to go! Don't feel hungry at all!

Hope it wasn't too horrid a day jacko... we all waiting to hear your report! well done on being 100% though x

The stomach is a muscle and will therefore expands to accomodate food/fluids. However as there is 'nothing' to water, it empties from the stomach much quicker than say, a meal would. Also, just for future ref, low fat foods empty from the stomach quicker than high fat foods. x

You're welcome, now go and have a hot drink x

But you're back,............. and that's the main thing! good luck x

Hi pudge, sorry to hear about the break in, i know how that feels, makes you a little paranoid and you feel uneasy in your home. Chances are they won't be back, they're opportunists. I agree with Karma though, what goes around comes around!

I agree it may seem a little pricey (considering we're also paying £144 a month for the shakes), however it works out roughly about £33 a night, or there abouts? which isn't that bad, considering travelodge are about £50 a night? Maybe the prices could be lowered though? Just a thought.....

Take some immodium, that should help initially. Taking the bulking agent pudge mentioned will also make a difference x

I think that would be an excellant idea! Being with others who are going through the same thing as you, and are understanding...... which lets face it, many people look at fat people and just assume we're lazy, constant eaters and a drain on society! I think this is a really good idea, a retreat...

How you doing now jojo? you back on track? x

You wouldn't be normal if you didn't have a blip! The scales are going in the right (weigh) hun...pardon the pun! x

One of the 'side effects' of this type of diet is feeling cold, it actually shows you're following the diet properly. The body adjusts its' normal thermostat and makes you fee colder. The best way to combat this is to drink a hot drink,(or a warm drink). Hope this helps x

Yay!! Well done! xx

Hi angelina, how are you doing? Has being in work helped, sometimes all you need is the distraction x

I'm 6 stone overweight and no baby to blame! At least we've all made the decision to change xx

YAY!! well done! you must be thrilled? thats a good 2nd week loss, keep it going chick x

How you getting on YM, you finding it ok?

Hi lenni, i'm totally with pudge on this, your health comes first. On the upside, you probably don't feel like eating anything at the moment, so it may be an easy transition when you start the shakes again?.. every cloud and all that?!! Just make sure you're still drinking plenty of fluids...

Earl Grey tea, even though it is a litlle 'perfumey', it's a different taste!

Friday!! To motivate me through the weekend!

Hi lenni, it will! you were motivated enough to think about the diet, research it and start it... this is just a little blip. But you will start it again and we're all here to support you! I did lipotrim 5 years ago and halfway through had to stop for 2 weeks when i had a really nasty chest...

Ps meant to say a huge 'well done' to mustLose for not giving in to the evil, evil, temptations! (as yummy as they sound!)

Honk! Day 4 x

That's fantastic! well done!, You must be thrilled. I have my first weigh in on saturday, hope i have as good as loss as you! Well done !

I cooked a roast today and made a few meals for the week, i made sure id had a shake and a huge glass of fizzy water before i started though! I'm happy to tell you i wasn't tempted at all, and now there are 3 meals in the fridge that just need heating up in the microwave. Easy! Also, a tip i've...

Hi lenni, sorry, on the test strip container. You pharmacist will probably have you buy a box and you just pee on the strip n match it to the colour on the back of the container. It will all make sense hun! Good luck xx

Hi lenni, i'm on day 2 and already starting to go into ketosis, i'm at box 3 on the colour chart..a nice pink! lol x Everyone is different though and some people have reported taking up to a week. Hope this helps.

Day 2 ..... HONK!!!

What a fantastic loss maz! You must be thrilled:D. WHen you have a good loss it really encourages you (and the rest of us!) well done! xx

I don't feel too bad. I did lipotrim 4 years ago and lost 3 stone and i remember day one being harder the first time around! I find drinking fizzy water fills me much more.

Hi there, i am on day 1 too, so you're not alone, lol.......
