I am back too. Last September I was down to 199lbs...back up to 235lbs now!! I could kick myself, but more determined this time to stick at it until my goal is reached. Good luck with your continuing journey. There are great recipe ideas on here to liven up the diet. Dawn x

I started on LipoTrim but switched to Slim and Save, so much more choice and still gives good results.

mousse sounds like a nice change x

Thanks Katie. I am quite enjoying sparkling water too now.

Miss Gummy Bares (only once at target, will I bare!) lol xx

I lost my first 3 stone with Lipotrim, it was great. Have lost half as much again with slim and save, but it seems slower. I bet it would have slowed down on Lipotrim anyway. I do enjoy having greater choices as I still plan to be on it for some time yet. x

I pop back and look at your pics for motivation, thanks and well done x

Thanks, Borders Girl. x

Does anybody know what drinks you can have? The slim and save water flavourings are quite expensive. Is there a dilute or flavoured water you can have? :confused: Thanks Dawn

I have changed to slim and save and have one meal a day now xx good luck xx

Cuqsuita you are so close to goal, less than a stone. Hang on in there, you can do it xx

You are doing really well x

Hi, the doctor told me that it can take a whole year for your skin to settle after you reach target. Don't consider surgery, until 12 months after target weight. The water should help things to shrink back. Swimming is a good all round toner. Good luck. D x

u look amazing x

You look fabulous x

Possibly why some people switch to slim and save, more choice and taste nice.

I lost a stone, but have 1/2 of me to lose in total! Good luck x

I keep really busy when feeling as though I may fall off the wagon. I have lost nearly 4 stone on lipotrim and it is amazing. Apart from one massive pair of trousers that I have kept, all my wardrobe is new! It feels absolutely amazing when you try something on and it looks ridiculous because it...

I hope your surgery went well Clair xx

Welcome and good luck. I am a deputy head in a primary school. I used to feel like a hypocrit!!!...teaching the children about healthy eating when I am so fat!!! LOL XX

2 litres not enough babe. slim and save water flavourings are nice. I save my fizzy water as a treat when out, I enjoy it all the more then. good luck with your weight loss journey xx

Stick with it, it will pass. Keep your water levels up xx

Look after yourself and seek advice, the slim and save is good too xx

ha ha crashed ice!!! I meant crushed ice xx

Hello.I find the strawberry milkshake is nicer if I make it up with crashed ice, tastes more like a thick McD's one then. Good luck with losing the rest of your weight xx

The people on this forum are a wealth of information and support...they helped me sort my bowels out...LOL!!! And I can't tell you how much relief that was. Good luck on the next part of your weightloss journey. xx

You are an inspiration to us all xx well done xx

I am thinking of switching from Lipotrim to Slim and Save xx Slim and Save do a sample pack where you can try one of everthing for £32.00 delivered. 29 items xx

3 or 4 days, stick at it. xx

A bottle of water by the bed, I need it as soon as I wake up xx

I think they are fab!

Just found the other thread. Thanks for your advice. x

Thanks, brilliant tips x

Thanks. My losses have been amazing, I have been expecting them to slow after the second week, I know that they will soon and that's okay. x

Been on lipotrim for 7 weeks and lost 3 and 1/2 stone. Their sachets are boring though. I have tried some s n s and like them all. Has anyone else swapped? Did it affect your losses? :(

Keep at it xx

I lost a stone in week one x

Well done on the first weeks and good luck for the rest of them xx

Hi Newbex, I am in week 8. I lost 3 and 1/2 stone in 7 weeks, the diet is amazing. You need willpower and you need to treat yourself, not with food, but something else. A DVD, pictures, a beauty treatment. Rewards certainly help me to keep going. Good luck with it xx

My pharmacist put it into their computer, to follow the 'N.I.C.E. Guidlines' and it said 9st 12lbs, I am 5ft 8in. However, below 10 1/2 stone I look ill. So am aiming for 10st 12lb to start with, that's a BMI of 23.1

good luck with the surgery - i have weighed on different days due to work, my pharmacy were fine Dawn x

I prefer mine with crushed ice, feel like I am having a macdonalds one then. I have to put a sweetener in to drink the chocolate hot.

Weigh in today, lost 7 lbs again. Yippeeeeeee! xx

Good luck Rosie Mae xx

Good luck Emma xx

Yep senna is fine. Hope things get moving for you soon xx

Welcome xx

Well done, just imagine what they will be saying when you reach your target xx

Find something to distract you. Go for a walk or do a job, just keep busy. xx

Don't do it! Hunt for the willpower. I have lost 3 and 1/2 stone in just 7 weeks on Lipotrim TFR. It's very effective. Just think how good being slim will be. Good luck xx

Welcome and well done. 7 weeks and 3 and a 1/2 stone lighter. I think this diet is amazing. Good luck everyone on your journey to a slimmer you. xx

Well done, a great journey to being slim! x

You are all absolutely amazing! I am in week 7, lost 3 stone, but flagging, having looked at your photos...I am inspired again. Thank you x

All inspirational. Well done to you all! xx

You are an inspiration to us all. Well done xx

All my extremities are freezing! Am in week 7, so guess it won't improve any. Good luck everyone on our journey to skinny people! lol xx

I have bought a Slendertone kit, to start to target areas. Lost 3 stone in 6 weeks and bits are getting saggy!!! lol x

Pysillium husks made me worse, but fibre clear daily and senna twice a week seems to get things moving. This for me, is the only downside to the diet.

Well done! You are doing great. I am finding it quite easy too, I look at food and think..."that's what made me this way!"

Congratulations and well done on the diet x

I need to lose nearly HALF of me! lol 42 lbs gone in 6 weeks, another 70 lbs to go!!! So I guess about 5 more months on this diet. Good luck to everyone. x

Naughty pooch, but it made me chuckle too x

My pharmacist says no to cammomile x

Good luck, you did it b4. You can do it again. x

Betsy...you are insirational! I am in week 5 and have lost 2 stone 4 pounds, if ever I think: "I can't do this", I just look at your post and it spurs me on. Thank you and well done, you look amazing. xxx

Keep busy, my grandchildren help me. x

Qashqai (Nissan) sorry, no car with Q. lol

Thanks everyone for yourhelp and advice. Things okay at the moment,

Yep, got capsules. I am not brilliant at swallowing pills but was worried about the taste of the powder. x

Yes it does. Thanks *Shanny* xx

Keep your water intake high. my doc said no heavy exercise in first two weeks. i am at nearly 4 weeks and i never feel hungry. good luck xx

As the title says...does pysillium husk affect ketosis? Still not happy with bowels!!!:cry: Fibre clear did nothing. Don't like taking Senna or Bisacodyl regularly as they both cause severe stomach cramps, so thought that I might try the pysillium husk. Any thoughts? Thanks. Dawn xx

Thanks SlimmerSu x

Fizzy water helps me to feel full x

What an achievement...fantastic! x

Fizzy water makes me feel full.

Fizzy water fills me up brilliantly!

I have nearly done 4 weeks 100%, I think each day gets easier. good luck with your weight loss journey x

Just think how much you will enjoy your birthday next year...being slim x

I felt great from day 1 and still do after nearly 4 weeks. good luck x

Otter x

wow! that dress is gorgeous. keep up the good work everyone x

My work colleagues have been very supportive and are all complimentary about my shrinking size. good luck x

Trying having all your shakes a bit later, because the evenings are the hardest. or split the shakes and have 6 meals a day. Good luck D x

Thanks The fibre clear is good, thanks for all the advice, almost done four weeks now and still feeling great x

Well done Jenniebee, that's brill. It is lovely, I am now wearing a whole load of clothes that were too tight...lol Keep up the good work D xx

I don't like vanilla, although not bad hot with black coffee x

Set some mini targets to help you stay focussed. Good luck! I have lost 1.5 stones in just 2 weeks. x

only get bloated in evening, catching up on water intake! ha ha

I might try chicken soup next week. Cannot stand vanilla shake, so just have strawberry and chocolate ones x

Well done, that's brilliant. I am only in week three, but still 100%...so scared of slipping out of ketosis if I am not good. x

I find this site boosts my willpower, everyone is here to help you through it x

I don't really like any of them hot on their own, tried vanilla in black decaf coffee, that was okay x

I take my shaker, sachet and a bottle of water.

Stick at it, I have tried every diet on the market but finding this quite easy now. food revolts me know.

Good luck, am in week 3 and think it's fab. Lost a stone in first week and 1/2 a stone in week 2 x

My pharmacist said no exercise in first 2 weeks, then build up gradually x

There are some recipes on here somewhere, I read some where you make them up with less water and microwave to make a type of muffin x

Me too, thought it was just me. ha ha x

I would speak to the pharmacist at your next weigh in. Good luck x

Good luck with it. I lost 1 stone in first week, 1/2 a stone in the second, third weigh in will be next Tuesday. My fifth day was my hardest. But my daughter gets married in 18 months and I refuse to be the fat mother of the bride!!! lol xx

Bio oil is expensive, it has been good on some surgery scars I have...nothing to do with weightloss.

I must be lucky, in week 2 and food repulses me already. I just keep thinking "that's what made me this fat" and I hate it. x

I have mine 8am, 12pm then 7pmish, as a teacher it is hard to fit round school breaks. x

That's fabulous! I lost a stone tooo and it makes you feel great. x

Lesson learnt for me...always have your phone. Glad u r ok though. x

That's good. x

Yep, you need to comment on 50 threads before you can do much x

Think I'll stick to chicken soup! ha ha

Fantastic!

That was me on day 5, upped my water intake and it passed.

Jamsi, my 5th day was my worst. I had felt fantastic until then, on the 5th day I felt faint, dizzy and really uncomfortable. By day 6, I felt great again and after losing 1 stone in the first week, and people asking if I had lost weight...I felt great. That wonderful feeling is what is keeping...

I lost a stone in first week, so very pleased. Hate the vanilla shake so just on strawberry and chocolate shakes, may try some chicken soup at weigh in on Tuesday evening.

Thanks everyone for all your help. Lost a stone in first week, so very motivated. Been on fibre clear for a week...it hasn't done a thing! So had to resort to laxatives, they have worked fine, so may have to take them a couple of times a week.

Thanks JACSFAT, not too much information. I don't want a problem, I suffer from constipation anyway, just worried whether laxatives affect ketosis.

Thanks, will ask at weigh in next Tuesday. I have taken some laxatives as I don't want bowel problems, but now wondering if they will affect the ketosis. I will stick at it, my daughter gets married in 18 months and I refuse to be a 'fat mother of the bride'...lol. I have been naughty and...

On day 4 of TFR...bowels inactive! Is that normal?:confused:

My pharmacist said mint drops. Tiny bottle only 79p, has 250 drops in it.

Hi I am on day 4, so a new starter too. I don't like the vanilla shakes, but can cope with the others. I have felt fine. Was naughty and jumped on the scales...7 1/2lbs in 3 days!!! Amazing, can't wait for weigh in next Tuesday night. Not felt hungry or tired. Worried about bowels though...
