Hi All! I'm new here and this is my first post so excuse me if someone else has covered this subject before (I have looked). I weighed nearly 13st at beginning of year and 12st 8lbs when started LL in Feb. Now into 4th week and have lost 15lbs so far. Goal weight 9st 8lbs. Very happy with weight loss so far but getting jittery about the future... e.g. There are a few girls on my course who have lost with LL before but they piled it on again: Have read in number of places, including Food Doctor's books, that when you start eating again your body is in famine mode and the pure act of eating normal food, however healthy/low fat, sugar, calorie etc. means you gain back the weight you lost and more: Don't understand it fully yet (only skipped through blurb), but recovery from famine mode affected by many factors such as 'insulin triggers' which include high stress and smoking that I am unable to eradicate/reduce at this present time: After LL Foundation and reaching goal weight it is recommended that you go onto maintenance which is said to cost the same as Foundation (£66 pw+). I am finding this financial outlay prohibitiven already.
I would really welcome your views/comments/ ideas/encouragement.
Thanks.
