hey ur not alone. ive really grown on the flapjacks. wen i 1st had 1 they made me heave but now i ave one every day. it makes a diff from the shakes and theyre so fillin. gr8 4 wen ur out n about!!!

thats true bout the job. ive been pretty stressed lately and so nervous. mayb thats got somethin to do with it. fingers crossed i'll lose more nxt wk. i cant b outta ketosis surely.

awwww thanx tracy. thats really sweet. i suppose i cud always go for a quick wi on fri and c wot happens. i'll jus die if ive put on more weight. how can hormones affect weight loss?

i thought that last wk. i NEVER thought that id actually put on weight. my chemist was baffled to wot caused it. realistically it shudnt happen & i had the agony of watchin all my fam eat at my uncles weddin & jus sat there eatin my flapjack. ppl say they admire me, but i cant help but feel as...

first time i had a flapjack it made me sick, but tried them again a month l8r and must say i love them now. im actually havin cravings for one rite now lol. def best for wen ur out n about and the convienence of jus openin them up and not havin to make up shakes is cool.

thanx tracy. i officially start on tues and ave to ring o.h. nurse to arrange them. god i hope they dont. dont think i cud face gettin into ketosis all ova again. but my theory is that im not consumin owt, and the injections go straight into my blood stream. found this site.... Measuring Guide...

i did thanks tracy. i do actaully ave a question bout that....they sed i need to b immunized b4 i can go into surgery. but which ones? they didnt say. hope they wont affect ketosis? Errrrr....not really sure wot to say bout the measurement. 38a seems small..mayb measurements r wrong? jus a guess.

split the shakes up. keeps the hungar pangs away!

hi tracy im the same. i was a 38dd and cup is now a bit big. wen i was measured, the lady lady sed 44gg lol that cant b rite!!!! so many shops ave diff sizes. m & s or new look i think ave the best sizes. where did u get it from? im useless buyin bras. i never know wot the prefect size is and...

well done u!!! it makes u feel so gr8. i was a bit disappointed that after losin 4 stone ive only dropped 2 dress sizes. mayb theres a bigger gap between plus size clothes. who knows lol.

ive been the same. i really aint been sleepin well for the past few nites. so annoyin wen i wake up every other hr to c the time. also ive been avin ALOT of food dreams. dreamt the other nite i was eatin a mushroom chow mein with pancake roll, and woke up feelin sick. strange for me, cuz i love...

i think so, garry. they look like mugs but got a whisk at the bottom. jus wondered if it was worth buyin one for wen i start work. do they mix well? ive heard stories that theyre not very gd.

anyone tried them? do they work? :confused:

thanx guys.....i cant this sat cuz im goin to a weddin. but im goin for my normal wi on mon (start on tues) and will ave a chat. mayb they cud open jus for me once a wk on their lunch break lol. how does everyone else get on with LT at work?

Hi everyone have finally got a new as a trainee dental nurse. but im so worried bout drinkin the water and having the shakes. i drink 4 ltrs now but wud it make a diff if i only drank 3? really not sure if ill get time to drink any more than that!! Ill also get no time to go for my wi's as i...

well done u, tracy. i hope im jus as successful as u wen i (eventually) re-feed. ur a real inspiration to me. :party0011:

i know wot ur goin thru. i almost gave up after my 1st wk, but once u get into ketosis it gets so much easier. ive got thru 12 wks now, and am sooo proud that ive got this far. believe me, uve got thru the hardest part and wen u get to the weight u want to b, it'll b so worth it. theres no way i...

I did slip after my 1st weigh in. had the flap jacks and were so awful that i was hungry. Tb

Hi peeps Really silly question......my lip balm has got citric acid in it. will this affect ketosis asn i lick my lips alot out of habit lol????:confused: xx

hi com, from wot ive read 'furry teeth' is the 1st sign of ketosis, n feelin cold and not feelin so hungry. my tongue feels like sandpaper does any1 feel like that? chick soup aint too bad, bit bland tho. let me know wot u think bout the flap jacks. which flavor u got, com?

Hey thats fantastic. well done!!! my wi aint til monday. I dont feel as tho ive lost any weight and am day 4 lol. do u feel any diff now that uve lost ova half a stone??

Hve u tried the flap jacks yet? i hear they r pretty vile but it mite help with the cravin and wantin to chew. i havent tried them yet but will get sum nxt wk. jus a quick question....how will i know im in ketosis? day 5 now and no signs. is this normal????

im also on day 5, but only my tongue feels furry lol but ive used lip blam that i only noticed til after i used it that it had citric acid in which can affect ketosis. i dont feel as tho ive lost any weight. does any1 think the lip balm is to blame?

am on day 4, will b day 5 tomoro and has def been the worst. ive been told it does get better. im so worried that i dont go into ketosis and that i'll put on weight cuz of all this bleedin water. i can imagine, the smell of pizza wud drive me insane. but well done for not givin into temptation...

Wot day ru on blondie? yeh the soup is a bit bland. Yeh the hot choc is nice really warms you up. Tried the choc mousse yday but didnt really like it. Was a bit too gooey for me. Will try the orange extract nxt wk.

I very nearly gave in today, make a sarnie and everythin but felt so guilty so had the chick soup instead. so far today has been the hardest n really considered givin up. had a hot choc at 6:30pm. ill try the flap jacks nxt week as i miss eating!!! but dont feel hungry at the mo.

No not been too bad lately. think i was walkin up the hill a bit too quick lol but feel soooo bloated with all the water. how did u know u were in ketosis the next day?

hiya all Can anyone tell me when Ketosis is supposed to kick in? Im on day 4 now and no sign. Altho my back teeth are feelin a but furry and got mild bad breath (could be down to smokin, not sure). Been drinkin 4 ltrs a day. Thanks

I know wot u mean, the smell is so overpowerin. Was up town thia afternoon and walkin past maccy Ds was a nitemare. Any ideas wen ketosis is supposed to kick in???

Thanks guys for your support. Its jus so hard. Gettin thru this will (hopefully) make me stronger. Good luck with yours tracy.

Hi all Im on day 4 now and jus nearly gave up. I even made a sandwich but jus cudnt eat it. So had the chick soup instead. Im not really hungry but bein faced with food everyday is tormentin me. I REALLY dont know if i can continue on LT. PLEASE tell if it gets any easier. Im also so bloated...

Hiya peeps I read in another thread that you could add mint or orange essence to the shakes. but i cant remember if its essence or flavourin and how much? Also, how much coffe do you put in the vanilla shake? sounds delicious. xx

Hi everyone Im on day 3 now with LT. Jus wonderin if anyone has been gettin outta breath easily since bein on LT or is it jus me? Jus goin up the stairs and im pantin. Never happened b4 LT. Please help..... xx

Hi peeps Hope ur all doin gr8. Jus thought i mite offer a bit of advice. I started LT yday and ave been keepin a diary of how im feelin and how much i want to eat. I only write a few sentences but its good to look back on. I did this a few yrs ago wen i bullied at uni (childish i know) and wen i...

is that? cuz i cant find the strips anywhere. :-(

Hi sorry to keep postin really annoyin threads lol but is mouth spray allowed instead of listerine strips?

My best m8 at uni was tall, blonde, beautiful and massive breasts lol EVERY bloke wanted her. I felt like a rite heffer next to her especially in the summer wen she had her short skirts on!!!But she was very supportive and a gr8 mate. Ur rite Keira, men like that aint worth it.

Also i want to be slim so i get cruel remarks thrown at me in the street. One lad (bout 16-17 yrs old) called me a "fat cow" in the middle of the town centre. Must admit it broke me and needless to say it didnt do much for my self esteem!!!

Hi everyone Started LT today, jus had the strawberry shake and to my surprise it was delicious!! But can any1 tell me how to make the chicken soup please? Thanks
