I seem to have spent many hours over the last couple of weeks reading threads on this forums, and what a fantastic place it is!
What struck me most was the diary threads. Everyone is different although we're all working towards the same goal of losing weight. Some are positive, some are struggling but it is so inspirational to read all the posts from shrinking people week after week that I though I should start one and become part of something great :bliss:
So here I am, one week into Lipotrim. I have been on a diet since I first joined WW when I was 20. the lightest I ever remember being is 13st 10lb, at my heaviest and lowest point I was 18+. I have never been able to eat food without feeling guilty, or been able to diet without wanting more and feeling deprived.
I honestly feel like I've found a key to secret club! I'm not saying it's easy - cooking for my three daughters and husband has been hard at times this week, but when I look at the loss it is more than worth it.
My aim is to be a normal size. To buy a dress from Top Shop or a top from Gap (That's not a men's one!)
I know People who don't understand this diet criticise it and claim it's bad for you but then I don't believe that being morbidly obese is very good for your health. The critics are usually a "normal" weight too. They don't have the ability to understand what it is like to feel pretty useless about yourself when it comes to losing weight.
Days 1-4 were pretty hard. Headaches and feeling groggy, but then I've felt fantastic since. Here goes an awful lot (I hope!!!)
Thank you to everyone who posts in the whole forum, it is an absolute lifesaver :hug99:
