    how long do you have to do maintanence for ?

    Hi saira, It's up to yourself how long you want to do maintanence for. You have to do a weeks refeed then depending in how much u want to lose u go into maintanence which is 2 shakes and low carb meal a day. The weekly average loss on maintanence is about 2lbs so it's up to u really. Good luck :)

    Lost 22 on Exante...now re-feeding the Liprotrim way!!

    That's brilliant hol! Hopefully of I stick to it like you I'll lose a few lbs too. I much prefer the idea of losing 2 or 3lbs a week this way. At least u get to eat a meal a day! ;-)

    Help needed please!

    Hey Kate, I'm starting my refeed today too. The idea behind some of the days being 2 shakes and others being only one and 2 meals is to get your body used to eating so it doesn't go into shock. To be honest I'm gonna try just do 2 shakes and a salad etc a day cos I have a few TFR sachets left...

    Yet another newbie on day 1!

    Hey Laura, to be honest I think the shakers are crap! I use a hand blender with ice water for the shakes and boiling for my soup (with black pepper) the hand blender gets rid of any lumps and they're actually much nicer! ;-)

    Hey spaghetti, I was in the exact same boat 3 years ago when I got into my size 10's! The thing about this diet is that in a weird way it makes u so obsessive about putting on the pounds!

    You should be ok Nathan, obviously you're not gonna lose a massive amount but get back on it 100% and drink more water which will help flush it out. I know it's prob bad to encourage this but a couple of dulcalax tablets might help too. Try not to make it a regular thing tho, we've all (well...

    Hi sb welcome to the forum. I'm surprised your chemist didn't go through all this with you? To answer your questions, fibre clear does not interfere with ketosis, it just helps when your bloated and can't go.

    Binni's diary

    Hi Binni, well done on getting to day 3 :-) (days 1-4 were hardest for me) I'm only a couple of days ahead of you. Not sure about the bloated feeling, i haven't really had that, maybe more water and some fibre clear? I agree that a sneaky jump on the scales is really motivating, we just need...

    They say your not supposed to weigh yourself at home but I do it every morning, I find it really motivates me to see it going down everyday! In saying that just don't expect the chemists to say the same. According to my scales I've lost 10lbs in 6 days but doubt it's true! A video diary is a...

    arrrhhhh someone either super glue my mouth up or give me a lobotomy!

    I was just gonna suggest the same..go to bed as early as u can, then tomorrows a brand new day! Nothing worse then a day like that where no amount of water/tea/shakes will switch your brain off :-( I find driving helps (especially if it's too miserable to go out) my parents have never seen me...

    DAY 1

    Hey Tee, congrats on losing that 1st stone! :) I did LP 2 and half years ago and lost nearly 3 stone, I also only did 3 weeks on TFR and lost most of my weight on maintenance, 2 shakes a salad or stirfry and alot of walking! I kept it off too so it really can be done ;-) TFR isn't for everybody...

    You can defo do it Dee! We all have our bad days, just chalk it down and plan to start again from 100% tomorrow.

    How long do you HAVE to do TFR 100%?

    That's a great result Mel well done! A long term go on this isn't for everybody, only doing 2-3 weeks myself then like you hoping to lose a few pounds on the maintanence, well done again and best of luck with the next week ;-) x

    How long do you HAVE to do TFR 100%?

    Hey Mel, as someone who's been through this before I'd say stick with it got at least another week. Week one you mainly lose just water so 2 weeks would be alot better. You've been 100% this week so I guarantee you've lost loads! You'll feel great after your weigh in and I bet you'll want to...

    exercise while on lipotrim

    Hi, exercise definately works but just listen to your body. If you start to feel weak or sick then stop straight away. At the end of the day you're burning calories that you don't have so I'd avoid it for the first couple of weeks until your body adjusts to the changes! Also avoid bikram yoga...
