JULY NEW STARTERS - Welcome to LL

[shellbell]

newbie having trouble with gp form

hi guys, i'm new to LL, well, hopefully, at the minute i can't get my doctor to sign my form!! went for a blood test and check up this morning with the practice nurse, and she asked the gp about the form who said they'd only do it after i had a FULL MEDICAL and that would cost £120!!!!
i had a load of blood tests done 2 weeks ago and get regular check ups so i don't know where this has come from?!
i'm really eager to get started on this programme bcos i've been putting off losing weight for so long, and now it looks like i'm gonna have to wait longer?!?!!

help guys what should i do? there's a walk in clininc in st. helens which is open till 10p.m tonight, do you think i should ring them and ask if they'd be prepared to do it??? i don't mind paying £10 or £20, but £120 takes the p***!!!

No harm in calling is there?

Also, check with the LLC, they generally know a doctor that supports the diet.

Good luck!

ok thanks, will do! once that is sorted all i have to do is wait for a group to begin.....fingers crossed its soon.

also, congratulations on yours and everybodies weight loss on this forum, its really encouraging for me to get me focused knowing other people have tried and suceeded!

Hello all! I am so pleased to have found this sit as I live alone and sometimes feel in need to touch base with other LL's in between meetings...just to exchange questions, encouragement and support etc. I am just coming to the end of my second week on the programme and have my meeting and weigh-in tonight. I have already lost 11 and three quarter pound so I am hoping to push further towards my first stone lost tonight!!
The stories and advice on here are truly inspirational and I just know I'm going to find this "sanctury" invaluable!
See ya,
Ally

Hi.

I'm restarting Lighter Life after 2 years of struggling to maintain my lost weight and gaining it all back - I'm really keen to "meet" anyone else who's just starting out again on this journey - anybody out there? I start tonight but only with a Foundation class.

Hi Everyone x
Today is my first day on Lighterlife. My weight has been spirally out of control since I had our children (youngest is 2) and I now I'm so big I can't ride my horse.
Lighterlife seems perfect as I've got loads to loose and the results are quicker than other diets. I'm really excited and motivated at the moment and hope it lasts!
Only complaint is I have the worst headache!!

Hi All

Thought I would drop in on this thread to say welcome. Do come and post in the other sections.

Hope you are doing well in your first few weeks.

Lea take an aspirin and have a nice hot bath, it will pass by this time next week you will be feeling FANTASTIC......

well please lost 6.5lb on my first weigh in

 

[leanne2980]

Feeling so much better today! Took your advice Tange aspirin and a hot bath worked wonders, Thanks. Did the same last night. Keep reminding myself that everyone says the first 3 days are the worst then it gets better.
Still feel very hungry and missing chewing but I keep looking out at my horse and he spurs me on!!
Hope everyone is having a good week xxxxx

 

[Blonde Logic]

Well done on your loss Minimod! Great start!!

ANd glad you are feeling better and focused Leanne. What a great goal - to look out and see your horse. I know that would spur me on. I adore horses. So keep your eye on that big beautiful prize, and you will get yours too!!! It DOES get so much easier - just another day or two and you should be settling into your groove.

Keep at it girls!!! <sending big encouraging hugs>
