Well done hun! x

Not sure if anyone has cottoned on to this but after my meltdown over not being able to chew, I just chomped on a cupful of ice. Sounds weird but it really helped! x

HONNNNK! Day 4

Your health definitely comes first but you sound determined to continue your weight loss journey. Good luck hun, come back and see us soon xx

Hahahahahaaaaa!!!

I will definitely give them a whirl. I don't care what they taste like, I need to get my teeth round something before I eat the furniture! x

I'm sure I will love. Think I'm gonna get a few bars next week and that should keep me happy. Your loss is brill hun, hope I do that well :-) x

Hahahahaaa! x

I hold out hope! I don't feel hungry enough for the shakes I'm just missing putting things in my mouth lol. Have finished Uni for the year now and don't go back til September so I'm gonna be climbing the walls with boredom soon x

I'm sorry to hear you're having the same problem love, although its put my mind at rest knowing this is fairly common. Good luck for your weigh in Hun I'm sure you'll have done brilliantly. Mine's on Thursday which is a six day week also. Just downed a shake, only two more to go :-S xx

Thanks hun, I've had a couple of doses of fibre clear and still nothing. I'm not constipated there just feels like there is nothing in my body to pass out if that makes sense x

That exactly it daisy, I am missing the sensation of chewing. Hope it goes away soon x

Hi chick, Feel sick and can't face the shakes today. I know I've got to have them, just keep putting it off! Well done on your loss that's fabulous! I'd walk around naked if I was 13.7 lol x

Thank you hun, I know it will all be worth it in the end xx

:-(

I know I just have to soldier on love, I have just mugged my friend next door for anti sickness tablets and they seem to be doing the trick. Do you think it would matter if I just drank water today and had no shakes? x

Having 972 number ones a day! Tis number 2 z

I'm on day four love. Im getting a bit worried cause I haven't been to the toilet either is that normal? x

So glad you're feeling great love. I'm struggling in all honesty. Feel sick and don't wanna drink the shakes. I want this feeling of well being to kick in like everyone else has :-( x

Well done Klee that's an amazing loss!! x

Haha 'fighting with my teeth to let the spoon in' that made me chuckle :-D x

Hehehe x

I'll drink to that, well erm raise my glass of water :-D

You're a woman with a plan, I love that! I'm good thanks hun although stinky breath has kicked in. Now my dog knows how it feels to get smelly kisses too haha! Had a bit of a hungry day in all honesty, I'm missing the action of chewing if that doesn't sound too weird! Been flicking through all...

Awh hunny (((BIGGGGGHUG))) you aren't by any means a fraud, you are human. You wouldn't come down that hard on any of us for a blip. Punishing yourself now will only serve to be your undoing later, give your self permission to let it go x

Thanks dusty, has it slowed down your loss at all? x

You are an inspiration hun, had a bad day today sticking with it but this has affirmed why I'm doing this. Well done in such a fabulous achievement x

As anyone had these? Just wondering what they were like. Think I'm missing chewing things!! x

I'm sure you'll smash your target hun, and what a prize at the end of it! x

Honk day 3 x

Lol x

Yaaaaaaaaay! :-D

Thanks hun, did some housework and took the mutt for a walk. Never been a gamer but my daughter's Xbox is sitting there gathering dust. Guess I could give it a try! x

I'm in ketosis (tested with a stick) but I'm really hungry :-( and feel like sticking my face in the fridge. Someone gimme a slap please....x

It isn't forever hun. If you're anything like me when you went to meals like this in the past you probably berate yourself for eating so much (again) and vow to do something about it in the future. Well, the future is here and you've made a positive decision to get things sorted, you should be...

I'm doing really well hun, hit ketosis yesterday and no more headaches :-) today will be a real test tho, going to my mum's for what is normally Sunday dinner x

I mithered for them in fairness. You can buy them tho in tubs of fifty for like a fiver x

The chemist gave me some ketostix hun. You test your wee with them x

Someone on here earlier told me to think about frog vomit! Gross but It sure did the trick tho lol x

Oh hello ketosis! BOOM! :bunnydance:

Listerene can be used but the chemist you get your shakes from should sell them. Mine were just a generic brand but I checked with the pharmacist as to if they were ok x

Puerto plata in the Dominican Republic Hun. It was super restful, the resort was amazing and the people are so friendly x

Either that or blend a couple of breath strips in there. I did that this morning and it was delicious x

I mixed mine with iced coffee, tasted pretty good :-) Only one I'm not really into is the strawberry and can't think of a way to jazz it up x

The pharmacist tried talking me into the soup. Now I know why, they must have millions of packets cause people bring it back lol x

Ewwwwwwwwww lmao x

I'm suffering too now Hun :-S

I'm a regular Man v Food watcher. Haven't plucked up the courage to watch one incase it tips me over the edge and I go and stick my face in a ruddy big gateaux lol x

Hope I do too, although day 1 was definitely the roughest one for me so far. Just hope the thoughts of food go away soon!! x

Haha not heard Hank Marvin for a while :-) I've heard blending the choc one with peppermint tea is nice, might give a stronger minty flavour x

Blended up 2 breath strips into my choc shake. I am one happy camper right now it was gorgeous :-D x

Same to you honey, we totally rock at this!! x

HONK!! Day 2 :-D x

I'm not too bad since I discovered using crushed ice in them x

Oddly I don't feel hungry now that you mention it :-) yay! We CAN do this xx

If you could have any celebrity body, which would it be? Think I'd have Katy Perry's :-D x

I didn't like this bit then again I drank it with milk. Might give it another try now milk is not allowed :-) x

I'm on day two as well hun not feeling too bad but yesterday I felt horrendous. Just soldier on, not long til ketosis kicks in and you'll feel fine. Hang on in there!! x

Wow Hun hats great, I've only managed 2 litres and I've really struggled with that!

Awh hope you are ok hun x

Natter not batter, bloody auto correct!! x

I know that feeling, they drive you mad but as soon as they're gone you miss them like crazy! Tried all 3 of the shakes now. Strawberry was the only one I wasn't keen on but I only discovered the ice crushing trick at tea time :-). Just had a long batter with my mum on the phone so that killed a...

Very hungry still Sian but I'll soldier through I won't give in! How are you today hun? x

Was it not good Hun?

Whoops! Meant to say need the hunger pangs to bog off and I'll be fine x

I'm determined to make it 100% Hun, just needt the hunger to

M'ungry...

I've been feeling sorry for myself too but Ava's just made me feel better :-) xx (thank yoooou!)

I blended up some ice and put half a teaspoon of coffee into my last shake of the day (vanilla). It was actually really nice, think crushed ice is the future :-D

I have almost that to lose too hun, you aren't alone. Im really hungry at the mo regardless of how much I drink. The dog is starting to look like a rack of lamb lol x

Have yourself a lovely bath and get in your PJs love, that's my plan today x

I know, I can't wait! Got to say I'm feeling incredibly hungry at the mo :-( x

Even before LT we all have days where we just 'don't feel right' probably just one of those days hun x

Thanks Daisy, I'm so glad I found this forum. Now I don't feel like I am on my own :-) x

Where can I find this thread? Xx

I've just come back from the Caribbean Hun. Not sure about the weather in November but when I went it was HOT! Wish I'd have been able to wear a bikini but I wanted to bare as little skin as possible. Wish I'd have known about LT in months leading up to wether I went but hey ho. Stick with it...

Honk day 1 :-D

And happy to report it wasn't that bad :-) I'm really apprehensive about the first few days but I've never been more determined to do something in my life. Think today will consist of a walk with the dog, a bubble bath and a DVD box set whilst snoodling under my duvet. What's everyone else up...

I generated the text and got a link but when I enter it on the signature page it just says 'invalid file' :pcwhack:

Congratulations honey!!! Better late than never, enjoy the freedom :clap:

Sure can hun, sorry I have only just seen this post :-) I have 9st 4lbs to lose, feels like a bohemoth task but we'll get there x

Aw welcome hun. I wish you luck with your journey, I'm sure we'll be fine x

It does look good. Everyone seems to use a blender at home. Wondering if I should invest in one x

I start tomorrow hun. Went to get weighed and get all my stuff today. Not done LT before so don't know what to expect x

Is it bizarre that I'm getting so excited about these shakes?! x :-)

Ooooooh cool idea! X

I'm rocking chocolate, strawberry and vanilla. Not brave enough for the soup yet. Think my first shake in the morning will be a vanilla with the coffee x

That's a bit poo! I reserved mine online. Wish I'd have bought more than one now in hindsight, ah well x

I sure am hun! Got all my shakes, just been and bought one of those ball shakers from Argos and I'm good to go. This time next week i hope I'm half as happy as you are today! x

Well it's faster than any other wight loss. You'd have had a month long slog on ww to get 15lbs off. Bet you have a strong loss next week too. Just keep going, you can do this!! x

Well whatever you're doing it's working Hun. Just posted on your loss thread, bet you're on top of the world aren't you?! x

Well done chick that's a brilliant loss. Hope mine is as good x

Flippin eck Sian that's a phenomenal loss bet you're feeling awesome x

Wowsers hun that's great going, roll on the next 10lbs x

Cold coffee in the chocolate shake? Bet it's like a mocha x

You can use cold peppermint tea in the choc shake too x

Just use cold coffee in place of the water x

Thanks honeys. Just been to my first appointment. I'm armed with the shakes and a mahoosive desire to get thin!!! Bring it on!

Just been to pick up my first weeks supply of LT. VERY excited to start now, roll on tomorrow. I'm off to get my shaker in a wee while, might have a sneaky cheeseburger given its the last opportunity for several months :-) x

No problem, look up 'blender bottle' xx

Good luck hun. I start tomorrow too, know how you are feeling!! x

Hi guys, just been browsing about online and found an awesome shaker from a well known catalogue retail store for £1.99. It has a little metal ball inside that simulates a whisk, breaking up lumps etc. Portable with a spout for drinking :-) x

Thank you so much, I'm feeling more positive about it now. Just downloaded some iBooks and I'm good to go! x

How much have you lost altogether now hun?

Had not ad, piggin' auto correct!

Ad to wait over a week to get my LT appointment. Well it has finally come around as I go at 10 am in the morning. Initially I was super excited to get started but the nerves are staring to set in now wondering if I will miss food too much etc. Any last minute advice would be greatly appreciated x

Thanks hun. Do you know what the stages are and how long they take, I'm really curious now x

I've just downloaded The Deity by Steven Dunne. If the last two were anything to go buy I'm I'm for one hell of a ride!!! x

What is RTM? Pardon my thickness x

Thank you hun xx

Awh welcome hun! You're in the right place for support. It's exciting we're starting on the same day. Have you done LT before? x

The Tolkien books are very heavy going aren't they? X

Tell me about it....ruddy bank holidays :-) x

WHOA!! That's an awesome loss honey well done :-) xx

My appointment is on Thursday morning hun, it was the earliest they could fit me in x

thank you hun, everyone has made me feel so welcome. I am so glad I've found this forum - I know it is going to help me all the way to my goal :)

Nice to meet you both properly! Really cool that our start dates are so close together. I'm so keen to get started, feel like a bit of a fraud being on here before I actually start on the LT x

Awh that is so cute! My name is Alison, but people usually call me Ali :-)

Really am glad I have finished hun. What is your name btw, feel a bit mean calling you 'tubbylove' haha x

Good thanks hun, having a lazy day cause i've finished uni now for the year. Diet wise I've been ok - can't wait to get started on the Lipotrim, counting the days down to Thursday!! How have you been, you still going strong? x

Oh right I didn't know that!

teehee :giggle:xx

its minty tho! Kinda remind me of the smell f gum or toothpaste x

Oh Liza haha, just do it :-) x

It really is exciting!! My weigh days are on Thursdays too haha. My email address is [email protected]. Feel free to email me anytime xx

Thank you hun. I'm sure everything will be fine with your op and then you'll be free of them for good :-). I know that not everyone who diets or does LT gets them and it certainly wouldn't stop me getting this blasted weight off for good. Given the choice, I'd choose to have my body back xx

That dress is beautiful hun you will look stunning on your big day xx

Hi guys, read somewhere on here that gallstones can manifest as a result of LT. Just wondering how many of you out there have had these develop? x

You're a star :-) xx

Great stuff, thanks hun :-)

Peppermint tea is lovely hun, I drink it all the time. Aids digestion too x

I'd get it checked out to be on the safe side. I have one calf that is bigger than the other (about an inch difference) and that's always been like that. Think it's to do with the way I walk, like I have got a dominant leg x

Oh thank gawd for that!! Can't even begin to describe the angst I feel even thinking about not being able to go. How many times do you have to take that a week hun? x

Do these not throw you out of ketosis tho? x

I get like this too hun, you aren't alone. The feeling of helplessness is indescribable. Give yourself a break tho. The more you berate yourself for doing it, the more you WILL do it. Forgiveness takes the strain away somewhat x

But has anyone found constipation an issue? After a car accident a few years ago I'm terrified of being constipated (due to the drugs I was put on). Just wanted to know if anyones has a recurring problem with it. Apologies for this thread at breakfast time haha!! x

Lipotrim sounds exactly the same as Cambridge hun! Good luck with it, im sure you'll do fabulous on it xx

I'd get rid of the scales honey they are bad news x

Try not to be so hard on yourself Hun, 3lbs isn't that much. Take advantage of the free things. Walk more drink lots of water. Try your local council and see off they run any classes for anything for free. Anything from aerobics to pottery would keep your brain occupied x

Hi Claire, good luck with your weight loss journey x

This is a great forum for support, whatever diet method you choose xx

Hi there, good luck with your weight loss journey x

Congrats on you upcoming nuptials Hun, I'm starting the lipotrim diet next Thursday. It is meant to give rapid results, not sure about the Cambridge diet what does that involve?

Shame you can't sample before you commit. Kinda try before you buy xx

I'm starting it next week. How are you finding it x

I lose and gain Hun its so frustrating and a hard cycle to break x

No Hun, what's it about? X

A good leader makes all the difference x

I need a suggestions for a new book. Any ideas?

Yikes do they taste that bad, I'm scared about starting now haha x

The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step x

3rd one looks lovely x

**kick**

I used to watch DVDs on my iPod x

The ticker works on a laptop hun but not an iPad. It was easy to set up, I just followed the instructions on the link x

Glad you're feeling better too hun. Are you able to have headache tablets on LT or will they kick you out of ketosis? X

Wow hun you look amazing!

It does seem a good idea to get you chatting - although not good for impatient newbies like me haha x

Good luck Helen I'm sure you'll do really well x

Thank you hun. I can tell this forum is going to be a great help - everyone is so friendly and supportive :-)

Just finished The Disciple by Steven Dunne. AMAZING! Think you'd need to read the first book though, which is called The Reaper x

Hiya, I'm really excited about starting. Chemist can't fit me in til next Thursday :-/ x

Teehee x

Does using toothpaste not kick you out of ketosis?

Haha that made me smile :-) thank you hun x

Oooh thank yoooou :-)

Thank you Daisy :-) I have to say I'm feeling very inspired - I think LT may actually be the solution I have needed for so long to bring my weight problem under control x

When I'm in ketosis?

This is really helpful to newbies - thank you hun x

That was meant to say 'your' journey not 'our' - stoopid auto correct!

Hi I'm new too. Good luck with our weight loss journey Hun x

Flippin' eck!!!! That is astounding. You have really inspired me to go for it now :-)

Can anyone get one of those?

Awh thank you Hun. 9 stones seems a behemoth challenge, although got about 7.5 stones to get back to my slimmest ever. Praying for a swift end to my misery but I know it will take as long as it takes. I've never tried anything like this before and I know that it's going to work because if...

Not lost anything yet (probably cause I start next week) but I reckon i need to lose a mini cooper haha x

Just come back from holiday with some very distressing photos so the 'before' is all taken care of. Just the 'after' to work on now. Am hoping that comes on the ends of the words 'happily ever' xx

Dear ex-husband, My childhood sweetheart and mate for life. I thank you now for leaving, but not for taking my self confidence with you. It belongs to me and I want it back. I will gladly have IT back, but not you.

Spaghetti bolognese. I start the diet next week but I know for a fact it will be the meal I miss the most x

Do you get to choose what goes in your pack or do you just have to have what you are given? X

That is a great loss! Hope my first loss is as big x

Hi hun. I've replied twice but it isn't showing my posts. I think it maybe because I put my email address on the message. Would love to buddy up though and spur each other on x

Wow you look amazing! Do you mind me asking how much you have lost and how long it took? I'm starting the diet next week x

I everyone, I am new on here. Been loitering for a few days reading all the inspirational threads and finally plucked up the courage to say hi. I am starting lipotrim next week for the very first time and I'm a bit apprehensive and don't know what to expect. Any advice will be greatfully received
