Andyroo - I too am new and currently on day 3. I can't say I haven't been hungry but it will be worth sticking to it like glue come weight in. Keep us posted on your progress.
Hi all
I'm new to this forum and started LT yesterday. I have about 3 - 4 stone to lose and feeling really optimistic about the future weeks ahead. I have struggling to lose weight since neurosurgery in 2003. I couldnt eat properly for about 3 months and then when my appetite returned i really made up for it. No other diet has really worked for me i seem to lose a stone it takes two months + and then give up and put it all back on.
I'm hoping that if i see and feel the impact of TFR it will give me the motivation to continue to my goal.
Anyway day 1 down and it wasnt that bad at all. I keep looking in the fridge (when feeding the kids) and thinking wow i'm not eating!!!
This forum is great so i'll continue to log on for and to give support!

Deb - Thanx for the words of encouragement. It's good to come across people who are that bit further on than you are its really inspiring. Found it really hard this afternoon as it's mothers day and all the family went out for a meal - my sis and mum in law kept my spirits up tho joking about what type of drink i could have still, sparkling or black coffee. I actually dared to look at the menu and virtually ordered (in my head). Didn't sit with them for the meal though went to the shopping centre instead. Has anyone else experienced heightened smell???? Can smell food a mile off - some smells seem really strong and off putting tho Had a walk around and thought how nice it will be to get into some of the clothes that i hope to get into!!!
Studentgirl - good luck for tomorrow!

Hello. I started LT on Wednesday. I found the first few days REALLY tough and thank god I found this forum as I would never have stuck with it if I hadn't read all the success that others have experienced with this diet. Now I am on day 5 all the headaches and light headed feeling has gone and I am bursting with energy! So much that I am still on the computer on here and also looking at clothes and hairstyles for when I reach goal. I should be in bed as I will be up early with my baby daughter! I haven't had this much energy in years. I hope this feeling will continue. Good luck everyone who is starting LT. It is hard at first but it is getting much easier.

Hey,
I went down to my pharmacy today after spending the past couple of days reading this forum! I start the programme tomorrow, but im a bit nervous. Reading everyones stats is really inspiring though, everyone seems to have lost so much weight.
I have just over 4 stone to loose to reach my target weight, which would make me in the middle of a healthy weight for my (ever so short) height.
Wish me luck!

Hi all
Just thought I'd get back in touch to say this is the start of day 4!!! It's very early days i know but I am feeling so much better in myself already. Prior to starting LT i really didnt drink enough (about three cups of coffee a day- and that was it)!!! shocking. Since i started drinking all this water my skin has improved loads - I cant believe it really as i suffer from skin problems and can see the difference. I also wake up in the morning feeling really alert(normally hate how i feel in the morning - like i have a hangover - (without the alcohol). I haven't really felt hungry late evening is when i feel a bit deprived but thats all! Jumped on the scales (shouldn't really) and seem to have lost about 4lb since saturday so absolutely chuffed.
Good luck to everyone on the weight loss journey. Keep posting!

Hi - day 2 know
I cant wait to get to day four - ive logged on and read your story to keep me motivated - I am feeling really hungry and cant stop going for a wee - howevefr as hungry as i feel i know if I can stick it through it will be worth it - i also really struggle to get up in the mornings so if I have renewed energy levels that will be worth it in itself - congratulations on day 4 and four 1lbs. If it's a pound a day that means i will be 71lb lighter by monday - yippee
Glad to know im not doing this alone

Hi all!
Hi everyone,
and thanks for all efforts that go into maintaining this forum - much appreciated!
I've just started my LT programme and, although a bit scared by its severity, I'm feeling reassured to see that it's actually working for so many people.
My story isn't anything unheard of... I used to be a slim yet muscular girl up until my mid 20s - 115 lb at 5ft7in. Used to swim a lot and had a rather active lifestyle. Weight started to creep in though, as I got less and less active and more of a couch potato: studies, work, moving abroad two times certainly didn't help. I've also been discovered to have a lazy thyroid, so it was rather easy for me to blame my new-found extra pounds on the thyroid rather than just me being lazy and giving in to eating too much and not the healthiest things.
I've reached my all-time high earlier this year... 191 lb. My BP is also somewhat raised, and I feel like screaming every time I attempt to go out shopping for clothes. I'm currently a size 14/16 UK, which, in absolute terms may not be something too outrageous - still, I feel disgusted and I would really do anything to shed some serious pounds.
My target is 125lb by end of the year - would you think this is an achievable goal, if on Lipotrim and also increasing activity levels?
Oh and if anyone's curious, I'll be 32 soon and I live in Dublin :fyi:
See you around here!
Hugs,
Bri

Disaster
Hi All
Youre all doing so well and I need some help - disaster has just struck - ive just eaten some roast chicken in a pitta bread and worst of all a penguin (not the animal though at the stage im at it could have been) - On the bright side I managed to avoid the kids pizza. Any tips much appreciated especially if you are further down the road than me - is the damage repairable, can I get back on the wagon, am i doomed - has anyone else fallen of the wagon and then recovered sucessfully. Its only the end of day two - I thought I might last a bit longer than this but felt ravenous on the way to pick up the kids and the minute i walked in the door that was it - pitta bread in the toaster and the rest is history.
Renaming myself failure frog

Crazyfrog - I don't think all is lost - the worst that will happen is that it takes a little longer to get into ketosis and so this week might not show such a huge weight loss but still a good loss!!!! and the start of things to come!!!
I feel i am the queen of all disaster diets - good for a short while eat something I'm not supposed to and then throw it all away. ( I think to myself - well i have had that i may as well just have this)!!!
You took such a big step to go on this it would be such a shame to throw it all away. Forget what's happened its history - its what happens in the future thats important.

Hi everyone!
I'm due to start Lipotrim on Monday! Just watched the dvd and now I can't wait to get on it!
I was on LighterLife up until xmas and loved it, so I'm looking forward to getting rid of food again
I think time has made me think LL was easier than it actually was, but it didn't take long to get into the swing of things.
Yays for Lipotrim!:bliss:

Hi
Thanks Niki2009 and well done bitbot. Thats where ive fallen down before - breaking the diet and thinking oh well - ive ruined it now so I might as well eat what I want - you are right - it's not ruined - just a small set back so will take an extra day or 2 to reach my result which is the ultimate goal - I only have to do it for four weeks and hopefully will then be banished of all those unhealthy habits - tomorrow will be a better day.
