My LLC also charges 2 weeks up front. £15 from the extra payment went to pay for my LL registration / membership. In my case at the end of the 12 weeks or when I get to goal and think about moving on I'll only pay her the £15 outstanding. A bit of a swizz I know but I've heard of a few LLC's...

Welcome Pauline. Everyone here is really friendly. I've got hints and support when I need it. Looking forward to seeing how you get on.

2lb blues happens to us all Tia. Think of how much you have lost so far and that today you are not as heavy as when you started!

Hi all. I just need to share this with someone. I have a long term weightloss goal and have broken it down into little chunks to keep me going. Today, I achieved some goals I didn't even know I had. Silly little things that I hadn't thought of, but when I realised them I felt pretty damn...

2.3lbs for me this week. That's nearly half a stone in a fortnight. I'm delighted. I love my Sat morning weigh in, it really spurrs me on for the week ahead and makes the cooking for the family over the weekend so much easier. I'm also pleased that I am now just 'obese' and am no longer...

2.3lbs this week (TOTM) I'm really ok with it, strange really as when I lost around 2lbs a few weeks ago I was a bit upset. 2 and a bit pounds this week still nearly makes half a stone in a fortnight! good luck everyone! Trim T -14lb (0lbs lost, 14lbs to go) Monday WI Problemchild - 10lb...

Yey March Challenge here I come I'll try for another 10lb please!

Trim T are you going to start a sep. thread for March Challenge? I really enjoyed logging on to see how eveyone was doing!

4.2lbs for me this week (the .2lb is important!) That makes 19.2lbs in 5 weeks, I would like to lose at least 5 stone so I've still got a bit of a hike! Thanks for the welcome

Made my goal today. 4.2lb off I never thought I'd mangae 10lbs in a month and I'm delighted. Can't wait for the March challenge, see if I can do it again. Trim T - 10lb (-13lb, 0lb to go) Target met 13/02/2012 Spanglymum - 6lb (19lb lost so far, 5lb to go) Zombiegirl -21 (-23.5, 2.5 over...

I've found the counselling invaluable. You're already half way there starting to recognise some of the issues you have with food but the counselling will teach you coping mechanisms too. Plus the support you get from the other people in your group is fab. LL & CD aren't easy, but the group...

Shutter Island

Hi all. I just found this Sat weigh in thread. Is it for any diet? Can I join in?

That is so lovely. Must have given you a real boost!

Fingers crossed ROSB, I'm sure you'll be fine. Can't wait to hear your news!

Andy, I word from the wise. My mum had a gastric bypass 4 years ago and lost 17 stone. She's only 4' 11 so you can imagine the picture. Her GP referred her to Plastics, the waiting list was HUGE and when he appointment came around (I think she waited 4 months) she was told that because of...

Zombiegirl, try to stop weighing yourself through the week, I know its hard, I got really upst the other week when they weren't budging at home. Saying that I still lost 2lb. Believe in the magical properties of the scales in Crosby!

Thanks for all the advice. I think water is the key....... My weigh in is on Sat, I woke up on Thursday with tell tale TOTM bloatyness and thought great, I'm going to be retaining water like a sponge now. Got to weigh in and I'd lost 3lb. 15lb in 4 weeks and past my first stone. Heres to...

Wow that is amazing! You must be so pleased! If you keep going at this rate your brother may not recognise you! Just think of the looks on peoples faces who haven't seen you in a few months (esp. those you don't like) ha ha...

Just back from my weigh in. 3lb off for me this week! My Feb Goal is in sight. It's fab but mad that I am hoping to lose 10lb in a month! I'm really starting to love LL I have the new food packs to try this week too, I hope I lke them. Keep up all the hard work guys, it's worth it...

Well done! Since my first week I've not managed any thing more than 2.5lb but I'm really going to push the water this week and see if it makes a difference......

From what i've heard from the girls in my group who are further along when it came to milk week they never bothered and carried on as normal........ The thought of milk makes me ill too ROSB

Just back from my weigh in and I've lost 2.5lbs this week. Silly really but I am but happier with the 2.5lbs this week than I was with 2lbs last. Now my lost is in double figures! 12lb lost in 3 weeks! :D Everyone is doing so well, keep going! Trim T - 10lb (-5lb, 5lb to go) Spanglymum...

First of all welcome! I totally agree with the advie given above. I'm just nearing the end of my third week on LLT. I didn't find week one so bad, I was lucky and missed out on the headaches but I am feeling the cold alot more (saying that is is freezing outside) I've had a few bad...

You could always to LL instead :rolleyes:

The "eat less move more" mantra doesn't work for everyone, I know it doesn't for me. She looks fab! If she is dieting or maybe had surgery and doesn't want to say good on her! I've not told everyone I'm doing LL. Not because I'm ashamed or anything like that, I've told the people who...

I think I've only ever had the 'new' porridge and I quite like it. I always cook mine in a pan but I have found there to be a real difference between adding the water to the pack and the pack to water if that makes sense............

The waterlogged app is good, I've been using it a while. Another one that a few fiends of mine follwing LLT is water tracker. There is aparently a wigget thing you can set to count down your glasses of water to remind you to drink. I manage to drink 2 litres qite easily during the day but...

Come on Branndy, you know it's worth it. This is my first time on LLT and I am in the midle of week 3. You know this programme has ups and downs. How much did you lose first time round? Can you use that as motivation?

You must be so pleased! Thats serious motivation to keep you going this next week. Well Done!

How did you get on ROSB?

It sounds like you have some good coping mechanisms in place for those times you would ordinarily reach for the crisps and biscuits.... I am a comfort eater and it has taken my starting LLT to really understand that. I also am beinging to understand the difference between genuine hunger and...

I'm quite lucky, my weigh in is 09:00 Sat morning. I should imagine you'd be fine as long as you don't drink for 2 hours before hand. That should be plently of time for the water to pass through your system. Good luck with the first weigh in.

Week 2 weigh in and I've lost 2lb. Not as much as I'd of liked but a loss is a loss I guess. Trim T - 10lb (-4lb, 6lb to go) Spanglymum - 6lb (18lb lost so far) Zombiegirl -21 (-12, 9 to go) Clairepbear- 14 (24 lost since 3rd jan, on LLL though) Problemchild - 10lb Emzy22- 14lb (-1, 13lb to...

I've noticed a few things over the past week or so (week 2) a) my skin has cleared but from the occassional blemishes, I suppose from the increased water intake.... b) in some places my skin has gone a bit weird. The top layer when i pinch a bit I don't like (hips, belly, back etc) not...

Ah Zombiegirl, believe me I know EXACTLY how you are feeling, I'm in week 2 too. Have a look at my thread 'What am I doing wrong'. My weigh day is Sat, I too stood on the scales on Tues I think and had not lost an ounce. People were really supportive on here and apparently it just happens...

you've just got to keep messing with the packs until you find what works for you. I love the porridge, but I found the microwave to be a bit hit and miss....... 5 seconds too long and you have a brick. I always mix mix with the water in a pan and then heat gentle on the stove as it thickens...

This hardly seems fair. So each week it's going to cost differing amount based on what you want to buy? More admin and beurocrasy means less time in coucelling. I'm not happy (sorry for the typos, keyboard is crap)

I think you're gonna have to try them. I hate the lemon but don't mind the others. Stick with water, and least it's cheap!

Gives me another option to the Chilli because I can't stand poo pie. We'll have to nag her Zombiegirl!

A Blue Print for Murder

Great news. Keep going, you've done the hard part. We all have good days and bad, but we are all here to lend an ear and help where we can. x

12lb! well done Zombiegirl. I'm stayig off the scales until Sat, I'm just hoping to lose something. You must feel fab!

Nightmare Detective

Thanks Clarepbear and everyone else for this morning. Having the support of total strangers is overwhelming. I avoided the cafe on the way to work and took my shakes instead!

I'm up in Crosby Zombiegirl, you?

I'll try to take your advice and tay away from the scales. I am a comfort eater and hadn't stood on a set of scales for about 5 years up until 3 weeks ago. Although I knew I had put on weight, I honestly didn't realise how heavy I had become. I understand your point, since the start of LLT...

Even with my feeling crap today.... I still lost 7.5lb first week, nothing to be sniffed at. Thanks everyone, I'm feeling much better and I'm ready to batle through and wait for weigh in 2!

Come on Dave! I'm having a bit of a rough time at the moment, I feel like an ant at the foot of Everest but I am going to stick with it. If I stop now I won't be giving up on LL, I'll be giving up on myself. You ate, you shouldn't of, but you did. Carry on, finish your food packs, be...

Hi all. I'm a bit confused. I'm nearly half way through my second week and feel really low. I'm drinking plenty (same as last week) but since my weigh in I haven't lost an ounce! It's not a TOTM thing, tablets sort that (sorry boys). I know that weight loss varies from week to week and...

Trim T - 10lb (lost so far) Spanglymum - 6lb (18lb lost so far) Zombiegirl -14 (lost so far) Clairepbear- 14 (24 lost since 3rd jan, on LLL though) Problemchild - 10lb

These always make me smile.... "Some where over the rainbow, weigh a pie" "Mamma mia, mamma mia, mamma mia let me go. Beelzeebub has a devil for a sideboard, me, for me, for me........"

I comfort eat too, but it's taken me this diet to realise it. I don't smoke, drink or do drugs but I AM addicted to food. I eat when I'm happy, I eat when I'm stressed, I eat when I'm sad etc...... Interestingly I read that people who do have a found addiction tend to hide the food they...

First weigh in today........... 7.5 lbs!!!! First mini goal - keep the momentum going and try to lose another 2.5lbs next week. I hope it's do-able, I understand that your first week is always your biggest loss. Fingers crossed all........

ha! You've got to try everything I guess. I don't mind the chilli at all, but the shepheards pie was the most disgusting thing I have ever tasted. Each to their own! Good luck!

Well done Dave! I know it's been a bit of a slog for you and I've been watching out to see if you got your form and such like signed. I hope tonights meeting has gone well. When I came home from my first meeting with my packs last Sat my husband said "This is the first day of the rest of...

Good luck flowerbutton, we can keep each other going, let me know how you get on with your first weigh in (mine is on Sat). Thanks for the advice everyone, I'm going to meet my LLC tomorow in my lunch hour and swap the 'poo flavour' ones. I imagine I'll have to pay for another pack now as I'm...

I've just tried it and one mouthful made me feel ill, needless to say it went in the bin! Should I eat another pack (so I have had 4 today) or just have 3? If I need to have 4 a day can I buy another one from my LLC? - otherwise I'll be one short.......

I'm only on day two. I've found the soups and shakes I've tried so far ok. I'm a bit worried about the Shepherds Pie, isn't it going to be like baby food? Anyway, I have about 5 stone to lose but I was wondering how much weight others had lost before either their clothes fitted a little...

First session today but my llc said new packs are due first few weeks in Feb. Porridge and Strawberry mlshake so far, found them both ok. Is it ok to 'double up'.... i mean have 2 packs at once so I am havng 3 meals a day instead of 4? :confused:

Lighter Life Newbie Hi everybody. This is my first ever post! Started LLT today, I'm excited but know I have 5-6 stone to lose which seems impossible! One day at a time I guess. Hoping to get thinspiration from this forum. I've seen weight lose tickers on a few posts, can anyone tell...
