Hi,
Read on the other thread where you asked me how it went losing over 3 stone, sorry didn't see it earlier. I started on LT because some of my friends had done it and I saw they were fine, none of them had to lose as much as me but I felt they did fine so I would try.
The first 2 weeks were tough, I was battling my own demons, wondering would I fail, wanting this so badly it almost hurt. I also got drops in blood sugars and felt weak and shaky, however given the size I started at this was not surprising,also given the ammount of sugar I would eat daily. This is not said in any way to put you off, more to say we are all different and given these issues, which weren't soul destroying, I stayed with the diet and am so glad I did.
Now week 9, I feel very very comfortable on this diet, I haven't cheated once, I cook for my 3 small sons, visit friends, go for dinner and eat my flapjack. I feel good on it and love the changes I see every week. At this stage people are now stopping me and asking how I am losing weight, I tell them it's LT as I found out through word of mouth and I wouldn't have if people didn't tell.
I have great support from family and friends and my eldest boy (7) likes to know how much I lost every week, not that he fully understands but he likes to ask. I am healthier and happier and that can't be a bad thing.
So after all that I say, go for it, do it, you won't regret it and you are worth it.
Best of luck.
