Hi all,
Id really appreciate it you could share with me your losses to date and also any advise/ practical info regarding Lipotrim would be fantastic.
Basically, I lost 7stone in 10 months between 2007/2008 on weight watchers. I went from 18stone to 11. All was great but I put on about a stone in the year after my wedding, I then got pregnant with my son, (13 weeks old today!) and PILED back on loads of weight.
I cant explain to you how down I am over the whole thing - not just "normal" downess (is that a word?!) over being fat - this is ridiculous. I have had the most awful year and pregnancy (but have a beautiful healthy baby so it was worth it) and have had serious personal problems, I think I comfort ate and also gave up cigarettes when pregnant and ate every time I wanted one (which was ALOT), My husband really let me down during my pregnancy, I dont want to get into it here, and things are getting better but it left me devastated and my confidence completely shattered - because of this my weight is driving me crazy - I cant wait to get "back to myself" and start feeling ok again - to start wearing all my beautiful size 10 clothes again.
Its got to the point that I dont want to go out looking like this, I am terrifed that I will run into someone I know and am so embarrased.
I had my baby on a Monday and started back on Weight Watchers on the Wednesday. The morning before I went into labour I weighed exactly 17stone 10lbs. (including big baby etc..). I was 16 odd when I came home but naturally in the first 2 weeks the weight came off quite quickly (fluid etc) so I dont actually know my start weight this time. In the last 10-11 weeks I have lost 18lbs and am now 14stone 2lbs (5foot 8) - I lost NOTHING this week, which is completely unfair as I had been soooo good. I dont want to slate ww, because it worked so well for me last time but just doesnt seem to be doing enough for me this time. This is the 3rd week that I've lost nothing.
I have a wedding on the 19th June, its one of my dh's friends and work colleagues, one half of me is so excited - havent been out in a year, the other is upset at the prospect of looking like a disgusting fat blimp and people whispering about how I piled it on so quickly again.
I have decided to do lipotrim - just for a couple of weeks - 2-3, I think. Is this a good idea? then straight back to WW. I just need something to get a quick stone or so off and then I can suffer along with my 2lb losses. Im on maternity leave so its perfect time to start as I dont have to contend with work on top of the tiredness and headaches I keep hearing of. I cant start until the 15th of May though, as I am in Uni part time studying law and my final exam is on the 14th.
Im wondering what I could loose (given that Im female and my stats) in those 3 weeks. Could anyone give me an idea? - Im sorry to be horrible but over the years, I have noticed in signatures people on VLCDs loosing 4lbs a week and if thats the case its not worth it to me - I've sometimes lost that on ww - whilst eating but Im thinking week 1 and 2 are usually the big losses and Id be happy with that.
Could you tell me what to expect please? any side effects etc? Im worried, like most here that I do have a house to run and two smallies to care for so dont want to be completely useless.
Terribly sorry this is so long and thank you so much for reading. mwah! x
