Ooh thank you! Xx

Anyone know of a low carb hot choccie? I'm desperate xxx

Items not induction friendly: corn on the cob pate apple cream cheese u don't think you can have those on induction, apple and corn are especially sugary xx

Maybe add some different veg in? Are u constipated? There is a lot of processed food, with sausage and burgers, maybe make your own burgers or have minute steak, or chicken instead?

Yes that's right, when you don't eat carbs or heavily restrict as with atkins, your body switches from burning easy fuel I.e carbs, sugar etc and burns fat. You aren't as hungry, and you have lots of energy. You loose anything from 3-6 pounds a week, depending on how much you have to loose. It's...

I find sw doesn't teach about portion control, how can you eat what you are allowed and stay slim? Ww or atkins is good. I've just done a week and a bit on atkins, ate loads, under 20-25g of carbs a day but only lost a pound. So back to lipotrim, then I'm gonna do atkins to maintain.

I've had a bit of a binge today and come out of ketosis :( lots of cheese, peanut butter, pepperami x2 , can't seem to stop! Help! ive started atkins from a vlcd, so may have to go back on that as atkins has too much choice! Still need to loose 2 stone :(

Yes, that will defo happen!!

I've had steak, egg, mushrooms and salad. I'm so full!

The book said to add 2 table spoons to your food if you don't drink the broth? I don't think I'll bother though. the mathesons smoked sausage is carb free! Couldn't believe it, love it. I got the lowest carb sausages I could find, I must have read every packet in sainsburys! Do you drink any...

Breakfast: 2 sausage 1 egg snack. 2 inch of maths sons smoked sausage dinner: iceberg lettuce, rocket, lambs leaf, handful of each chicken breast with 30g goats cheese and mayonnaise. snack - probably more smoked sausage tea: steak with mushroom and egg x2 Am I on the right track? Anything...

You can get them from aldi too x

Hey, I'm off too, gonna do atkins instead, it's still a kerogenic diet, so hopefully guaranteed at least 2 a week. Lipotrim is making me too moody, and poor hubby is unable to eat out. Good luck everyone xxxx

Can you add anything to the chicken soup? ive added pepper but it sinks to the bottom. has anyone added chilli flakes or similar and stayed in ketosis?

I've lost 4 pounds this week, but it said 5 on my scales. Really struggling today, feel ravenous, really need to eat something. I've not done yet, drank loads of water. I'm worried I've come out of ketosis. Took 3 Imodium yesterday, in capsules. That's the only thing I've had apart from the...

Aw, your here now though :) straight back into it. Xxx

Thanks, I haven't caved, although really wanted food yesterday. Lost 1.5 this morning. So I'm stopping weighing everyday now. Going for official weigh in tomorrow :)

I have been 100%tfr all week! drank 3 -3.5 litres of water, plus 400mls in each shake. Not lost any weight since Thursday! Remained at 12.10 for 3 days now. It's not totm, I'm walking lots. Went trafford centre last night, walked non stop for 4 hours. Still no movement. It's so disheartening...

Make a hot water bottle, forget about the tuna, maybe have a hot water if you can drink it. I'm struggling today as well, but the start is the worst. You've come this far xxx

That's thirst your feeling, need to drink more like 3 litres xx

Yes!!! I am freezing today, just had chicken soup, feel slightly better xx

Aw so sorry for you! I would be eating a large pizza now if I were in the same situation. Much respect for sticking to the diet! Xxxxx

It takes me 2 days by day 3 I'm in ketosis. You will start to loose weight again as soon as ketosis kicks in x

How do you feel today? Hungry? If so you've come out of ketosis, if not then your probably in it. whats done is done, move past it, today is another day, it won't affect the long term. However, if you want to introduce a meal, the lipotrim won't work, you'll prob end up losing a pound a week as...

I'll be eating next at the Christmas markets which I looooove! So pulled pork with Apple sauce and stuffing. Prob some choc covered fruit from the choccy fountain and lots and lots of glühvein

I think if you halve the shake powder and have 2 cups of hot choc it tastes better. I made a mousse the other day and it was gross, way too strong and almost a sweet salty taste. I have my shakes with 400mls of water and like them this way x

Weighed in today, it's totm so not a great figure -3 this week xxx

Week 3 tomorrow, not finding it too bad so far. It's prob slowing because your tiny! Xx

Aw, well done! I hope I can last that long, I'm on week 2 weigh in on Monday. Are you getting consistent losses each week? Are you exercising? Xx

I've looked at your pictures a few times now, they really are inspirational, you do look like a different person! Xxx

Keep busy busy busy! Xx

It's all in the mind, if you start positive and really want to do it, then you will succeed. I did it in jan and cheated loads, I'm doing it this time round and I haven't cheated once, I'm only on day 12 but I feel differently about the diet. I want my body back, Nd this diet will help me get...

B vitamins?! What a random thing to say, are they sweeter that a or c or something? Lol

I weigh myself every morning.... Prob shouldn't though. Hang in there it will come off x

I can smell food all the time too :(

My face has gone down first this time, no where else noticeable, my rings are a little looser too

Steak and egg, or chicken, no salad no carbs of any kind and stick to water. This way you may still stay in ketosis xx

It's the future!

I know, me too. I eat during the day with the baby, then I've had so much I don't really want my tea! But I eat it anyway!! are you doing anything extra like exercise? I did boxercise this morning, was too much, I feel a bit light headed now!

How strange! It was there before, she had posted in loads of different forums saying how she had lost 3 stone in 6 months using her own method. Bet she is selling juice plus or something

I had ran out this morning! Been drinking plain old tap water till now. Just been to asda, smart price 17p per 2 litre bottle x4 . just had a sip of this fizzy nectar and all I can say is hooray for fizzy water. I wouldn't get through this without it!

Been to boxercise this morning, can't lift my arms up. Had to give myself a boost because I'm only loosing 1/2 a pound a day. Where did you read about no exercise ashleyrose?

Omg! Your like a different person!

I'd have lipo on my thighs, skin rejuvenation via either dermal roller or laser for fine lines on face. Boob job , no implants just and up lift. And if I need it when I've lost my weight a tummy tuck

This is a total food replacement forum, the diet is run by pharmacies.

This time around 10 days, did it for a month or so in jan, got 2 stone off.

Don't be disheartened, if you are drinking your water and not eating anything, then surely the weight will come off, how can it not. Doesn't make you feel any better though when you get on the scales. Have you measured yourself, maybe you're loosing inches? If not weight?

Ooh that would wind me up too! Cheeky git! :) they really don't think do they

Are they identical ? What weight do you want to get to?

Omg twins! I cannot imagine that! My dad's a twin, so when we went for our scan we were so nervous if there would be 2! 6 kiddies and lipotrim... I salute you! I'm not strong enough to do that xx

I quite like the soups with a little salt and pepper. But I shook it in the shaker, while hot. The shaker exploded everywhere! Yeah.... It says don't shake hot liquids for good reason! as for the flapjacks, I tried one yesterday after reading this thread.... I couldn't swallow it! Not nice at all.

Have you drank enough water Becky? 3 litres? maybe go for a 20 min walk? Or is it totm?!

My weigh on day is Monday, just had my weigh in yesterday, -8. But that was my first week.

Good luck! Are you really a mummy of six! I'm shattered having just put down my one and only one year old! I'm on week 2 day 2 as well! I haven't struggled till today, feel wrecked and hungry!

I was a size 12 al 11 stone xx

I'm a secret eater, pastries eaten in the car so no one sees. McDonald's pancake breakfasts while the baby is asleep. Lots of snacks throughout the day. i can relate to a lot of what already been said

Me too, 13.2 currently , 11.9 id be happy to get to this in 6 weeks when the Christmas markets open in Manchester! My goal before Christmas is 10.10

All my pre baby clothes!!! And I really want to wear jeans with knee high boots over the top and a blazer, true yummy mummy style :)

It's only one day, you,ll be fine :) xx

I've done LT before, lost 2 stone, maintained that for 3 yrs, got pregnant and put on 5 stone! Been miserable. Did sw for 2 months lost 18lbs, couldn't do TFR and get up very 2-3 hrs with the baby. got fed up of slow progress, baby sleeping better - equals lipotrim. I've gone from 15.10 when...

Just paracetamol really I think, anything else will have sugars in x

I might try it then, skin could do with a pick me up at the very least :)

Do u weigh yourself everyday? Let me know how u get on

If you want my honest opinion, 5lbs in 4 weeks isn't what I would be happy with, not working out x4 a week. I'd give up the pt and do LT instead, go back to the low carb plan when you want to tone up/ lose the last stone. But LT isn't for everyone, it's really hard, but u can only give it a go xx

Honk for me too!

I've recently heard a lot about Epsom salts getting rid of excess water, has anyone tried bathing in them?

They really are amazing pics!

Wow! How long has it took?

Honk honk honk!

Baby has been teething bad this afternoon so haven't been able to get near the fridge! Drank about 4litres today, hopefully I'll see abetted number in the morning! Thanks for support :)

I put 400mls water and a large teaspoon full of coffee and the vanilla, and blend. Blenders produce the best taste I think, u can get a cheap hand blender for £4 sainsburys basics range. :)

Fell off the wagon yesterday, and not only am I 4-5lb up this morning, I'm so hungry I could cry :( just nearly ate a piece of cheese, put it back though :)

I keep one in the car :)

I would stick with chicken or steak only no salad or veg. Steak wouldn't look out of place plain. also if I've drank on LT I'd have gin and slim line tonic or vodka diet coke. Alcohol will take u out of ketosis but if I've drank on the sat night, I'm back in ketosis Sunday evening. :)

I started 3rd jan at 14st11 and couldn't get into size 18 in river island, I've had a few weeks off, but not gone mad and I bought some size 12 tops and 14 bottoms this week. Really starting to feel like my old self (pre baby) i got weighed on fri and I'm 12st10 now :). only got another stone...

Mouthwash is fine, your not drinking it x

Got weighed yesterday and lost loads more than I thought according to their scales! 12.10lb not too bad. List exactly 3 stone since I had my baby in September :) just need to lose another 2 to get back to pre baby weight, hoping to do that before may 9th when we go on holiday :)

Well after starting again this week, I've had bad heartburn, took some gaviscon. Which after looking at old posts, you can't have. So only lost 3lbs in 3 days, and back out of ketosis this morning. Feel so upset :( I'm gonna be starving today again :(

I tried coffee in the chic shake with ice, it's really nice and nice kick off the caffeine :)

I thought I was dying last night! I've never felt pain like it. Took 3 full sugar Rennies I was that desperate, half a bottle of gaviscon, it would not go!! 6 hours of absolute agony. I've eaten today :( the pharmacist said it might be stress due to the house move. Gonna have a few weeks off...

Ha, I go to bed early too! Mainly cos I'm so tired! Hubby got up in the night with baba last night and can't get up! had awful food cravings yesterday, we even went to a restaurant! Luckily we were too early and evening service hadn't started! S glad now, came home and had my shake!! Nearly 4...

Probably, but it will just be water retention xx

20lbs in 3 weeks is very good! Almost 2 stone, bet you have a good week this week. I'm in line for a bad weight loss this week :( It comes off eventually though. We move house in 2 weeks! Hope I can manage with all the upheaval

Yes, you get a lot of "be careful" "why don't you eat something" "why don't you do weight watchers instead" I'm sure these people just prefer us to be fat!

I did lipotrim a few years ago and drank nearly every weekend on it, vodka diet coke only and gin and slimline tonic, lost 2 stone in about 8 weeks 12stone 8 to 10 stone 10. I'd drink sat night and back on shakes Sunday, and by sun night/ Monday morn I'd be back in ketosis. Not drinking this...

Lamb madras with poppadoms, garlic naan and chips! But I'll probably have chicken salad with a smidge of chilli sauce

Did u have a section? If so it's 12 weeks.

Oh, didn't know u can do that! Might have to get some soup for next week :)

Glad I stuck with it, only lost 4 pounds this week but better than 4 on! Cant wait for this diet to be over, not fair on hubby as we can't go out for tea. Never mind, be worth it in the end :)

I'm into week 3 and I'm due to get weighed tomorrow, I've only lost 3 pounds this week, bit gutted! And I'm feeling really hungry today, prob not actual hunger, more like cravings! Really need to get this baby weight off, I'm half way there, with my toTal loss being 2.5 stones so far. Its just...

Could your hunger and stimach problems be heart burn? I sometimes get indigestion/heart burn in between shakes, Zantac tablets helps with that, rather than gaviscon or similar.

You really need a minimum of 3 litres per day / night. Not including the shakes. Keep the litre bottle of volvic with u and just keep swigging from it. If u wake in the night thirsty your not drinking enough. xx

I had my period and actually put a few pounds on, but when I finished I lost like 5lbs overnight! It's just water retention, try to only weigh yourself at the pharmacy. U could also try walking round the block or something? Only light exercise xxx

If you have run out, only eat small amounts of meat, a bit of chicken or fish, this wont bring you out of ketosis and keep up water intake. Also eggs won't take u out of ketosis.

I wouldn't bother either, the food packs contain all u need :) xxx

I'd wait till they are sleeping better in the night, because those first 3 days will be even worse if you've had no sleep. I started slimming world when my baby was 4 weeks, and started lipotrim when she was 4 months (about 10 days ago) xx

After feeling like death since Wednesday, had an early night last night, (had to get up with the baby at 11,.30 and 2) but I feel so much better today! So glad I didn't buckle yesterday, I would have been gutted today!Full of energy too!

Thanks, I thought as much. ive been ill since Wednesday, but cough only developed on Friday. Had raging fever last night/this morning. I've been good so far, but can't be coughing all night, I'll wake the baby, she's only 4 months and still on our room. 17lbs is amazing, well done! Xx

Hi i seem to have developed a bad cough! Probably why vie been feeling really ill. what can I take that wont break the ketosis? All ideas welcome :) Thanks xxxx

I've been feeling great since I started lipotrim, but today feel really tired and a bit dizzy, any suggestions? Might have to eat a bit of protein if I don't feel better soon. I lost 8 lbs in first week
