Hello everyone.
I'm approx 5 stones overweight due to a combination of quitting smoking a while back and finding solace in the biscuits added to general laziness and junk eating. I started smoking again stupidly so now I'm overweight and a smoker.
I'm very tall for a female (5ft10) so truthfully I can carry the weight but it has got out of hand, people tend to remark that I don't 'look' my weight but I definitely feel it.
I have tried WW and SW without much success, namely because I tend to 'cheat' too much. I need something stricter that I need to follow to the letter and after reading about LT it's becoming more appealing although I'm unsure as to what to expect.
Is it absolutely definite that I will get bad headaches (I work in front of a computer all day so really could do without headaches) and not only this but is it true I can't take painkillers if I'm on this diet?
There is a pharmacy a few miles from me that runs this programme, my intention is tomorrow morning to go and get the dvd they insist on would be participants taking to watch first, then return it in the afternoon or Sat morning and start the programme asap.
Truthfully what appeals to me most is the rapid start with the loss. I know I need to educate myself more about it and the dvd would be good for that but I thought it made more sense to chat to people actually using LT for a better insight.
Is it likely to end up with the dreaded saggy skin after using LT? have heard stories of people that ended up with horrible baggy skin after following a similar sounding diet but truthfully don't know if it's LT. Is saggy skin avoidable through exercise?
Sorry for all the questions and thanks so much in advance to anyone that can help
