Hi Jan. Sorry to hear about your blood pressure. I was sceptical about my weight being such a factor with my high BP. Everyone in my family had high BP and I just thought it was hereditary. However when I got down to about 14 stone my BP went down to normal and no-one was more surprised...

"Thank you for such a wonderful inspirational post" No Mini, thank you for such a wonderful and inspirational site.

Hi 4real. It really is an amazing feeling - like buying a new car or something. I use a program called calorie king. It is an American program, but you can just put in the calories from the label of any food, or get the info from the internet. I just put in the calories, carbs and protein of...

Tomorrow should be my last day on lipotrim (in case you did not read the title) and I thought I would just share my experiences with this diet - sorry for the long post to come. I first went on it about 18 months ago because I was 18 stone and my blood pressure was through the roof. 185/110 and...

Hi flower, I am just coming to the end of my lipotrim diet and am worrying a bit about the maintenance. I have lost nearly 7 stone overall and am now just over 11 stone. I am thinking of calorie counting to help keep it off, no bread or pop etc. Must say I really enjoyed reading your post and...

Hi everyone. It was my doctor who sent me for lipotrim as a way to lose weight. My blood pressure was 185/107 so I had to do something about it and did not want to go on tablets unless as a last resort. I thought it was hereditary and losing the weight would not make any difference but I...

Yo Dunc. It really is the best diet in the world if you can stick to it. Everyone in work said that there was no way I could lose weight. I was the biggest on my shift. The thing is though when you start to see the scales move so fast it is the best incentive you can have to keep going. As...

Hi all. I am one of the few blokes. I have been on lipotrim last year and went from 18 stone to 14, but put the weight back on when I came off it and back on the chips and chocolates. :cry::cry: Then I went back on the diet in June and went down to about 13.5 stone.:) This time I managed to...

Hi there. I really wouldn't let it bother me whatever other people say. It is for me that I want to change. How dare they make comments like that. If it was me I would have let them have it.:mad: This diet works wonders, but you have to have your head in the right place to stick to it. I...

Hi there. I weigh myself every morning and my scales also calculate my BMI and water content. Then I take my blood pressure and heartrate. Then I log it on my computer and make it into a chart. Then I compare the chart to the previous weight loss when I was on Lipotrim last year. Obsessed...

Hi Sonkie, I am still going strong (for the moment). Another 8 pounds lost last week. Woo Woo. I think that because I just ate and ate before starting this diet, I keep remembering that over full feeling over Christmas, and this makes me more determined to keep away from food. It is really...

Hi there, I can deffo agree with everyone on the site - the hunger pains will go. For me, the worst day is day three because your head keeps telling you to just give in, and have a little something to eat and it won't matter in the long run. If you can resist it though it just gets loads...

Hi, from what I remember chewing gum was unfortunently a no no on this diet. I do not think it will knock you out of ketosis if it is sugar free, but it will make you hungry again, and you will be like starting all over again, so I did not risk it. I am sure that one of the experts will be...

Hi there. I am back on lipotrim because after losing 5 stone last yeat I have put 3 back on. I know it was my all my own fault, because after a few months of watching what I was eating I fell off the wagon big time and just ate everything I could get my paws on. I just just saying that I can...

I can second this wierd feeling. I have lost 4 stone and everyone says how much thinner I look, and I can really tell by how none of my pants fit me around the waist, but I still think that I look more or less the same. I must have lost about 6 - 8 inches off my waistband, but it is only when...

Hi Min, thanks for the lovely reply. People at work were very skeptical when I started this diet, saying that it'll never work and I would never do it, but now quite a few are asking about it as the weight loss becomes more apparent. The fact that I still look healthy and have energy is a...

Hi all. I was nearly 18 stone and was told at work that my blood pressure was too high for me to drive a forklift truck and it was recommended that I see my doctor. He agreed and told me to either try to lose some weight or to go on tablets. I did lose about half a stone by cutting down on...

I am afraid that I would tend to agree with Chicken on this. I was on the diet for a month but came off it for the world cup. When I went back on it when we were knocked out it was way harder than I thought it would be. I would go 2 days with just the packs and then cheat and have a bite to...

Hi all, My motivation was mainly due to health. I went to the doctors in January and was told that I had high blood pressure (about 185/140) and was told to lose weight or to take tablets. I was just under 18 stone at the time I tried for a few months but only lost about 5lbs, and this made...
