You're LLC shouldn't allow you to do LLT. LLT is designed for people who are obese and presumably there's a good reason why they don't recommend total abstinence for people with a BMI of less than that.
In addition, LLL is still a ketosis-basis diet and actually according to my own LLC, people doing LLL are losing similar amounts to those on LLT. The calorie content is not actually hugely different.
Sorry to sound negative Yasmine, but "losing the weight really fast" isn't the point of this surely? Yeah it's a big part of keeping motivated and getting healthy - but if you find LLL is "too long" and "really hard" - are you really changing how you think about your relationship with food?
Suggest you talk to your LLC and your group about how you're feeling about it and take support from them, rather than looking for a quick fix.
Got to agree, a lot of sense is written above...
Also, it's worth remembering that some of the high losses people see on LLT is due to them having more to lose, so losses may be bigger...
In addition to this, people lose at different rates... look at me for example! Yasmine, you and I are losing at about the same rate, even though I am on Total...
I hear your frustrations, and know how you feel... But you're still losing incredibly fast, and as your BMI is so close to 25, you don't really have that far to go babes... Stick with it hunny... The losses on LL (total, or lite) are great, but it's not a quick fix over all... I am gonna take about 6 months to lose my 5 stone at this rate (I have been totally abstinent the whole time, yet losses are slow), and then will have a further 3 or 4 months of RTM... it's a long old haul, which I wish could be done and dusted much sooner, but it's just not how things are panning out... Stay positive, you're doing so well...
