    New to exante but an ex lipotrimmer

    A friend at work did this diet and got good results, couldn't believe she was allowed to drink coke zero. I lost 4 stone on LT but as life threw a load of doo doo at me I put on 3 stone. Before going on holiday in may this year I lost 25 lb on LT but found it very hard to stick too. I...

    2nd WI (last week was wrong!)

    We've got to be careful with the people weighing us!!!!! I was told to step on the scales this morning but they were way out, so I asked her to adjust them - they were starting at 1kg. She looked a bit miffed but that would have made me 2.5lb heavier than I am....... You've done fantastic over...

    Hi Petemar, it's my second time on LT so I know where you are coming from. I've not got as much to lose this time but still need the support of this forum to get me through.

    Hello again Lipotrim

    Hi, I too have taken the plunge once again to lose weight using LT.

    Body contour wraps

    I've been looking into getting a body contour wrap but before I buy has anyone ever used one, if so do they really work?? I saw one featured on LKtoday and was quite impressed, but I would rather get the opinion of someone who had tried it for themselves, cos I don't want to go wasting any dosh. ;)

    refeed calories

    Refeed is about the re-introduction of food groups so that your depleted glycogen stores don't fill up with water, so no need to worry about calories until you're eating "normally" again. The first week seems to be rich in protein which the body burns really quickly and very little carbohydrate...
