to anyone that has already done refeed-maintenance

[nicki26]

when can you try the maintenance products? do u try them for the first time when u start refeed or are you allowed to try them beforehand to see what you like and dont like 'literally few days before starting refeed' will it affect ketosis if i did. i wasnt sure when i could start to taste them as i will be starting to refeed in roughly two weeks when i get to target and was sent my free samples yesterday.

 

[nicki26]

no-one? hmmmmmmm ok lol

Sorry Nicky, I think everyone is hibernating in this awful weather!!
I can't help you, but someone will later, I'm sure. xx

 

[nicki26]

thanks xx

Sorry Nicki I am nowhere near to refeed so don't really know.

However, I think I did read somewhere that the maintenance products contain carbs so I'm guessing they may knock you out of ketosis. I'm not 100% but I'm sure someone will be on later to let you know.

Good luck. How exciting to be so close to goal now.

[nicki26]

yes, exciting but very very nervous lol xxxxx

Hi there.... both me and my friend started lipotrim back in June, my friend started re-feed last week and was recommended to stick to the replacement shakes for the first 3 days of it and then change over to the maintenance ones on day 4.... she was not allowed any 'tasters' before hand but says the orange shake is her fav, and that the soup tastes quite peppery but still lovely.
hope this helps.

 

[nicki26]

thankyou for the reply, i wont try it then hehehe was going to have a bit to see what it was like but will wait until i actually start refeed. xxxx

Hope you don't mind me asking Nicki but where do you get the samples from, your chemist or do you have to send away for them? Just wondering for when I finally refeed (hopefully in November)

You can free samples (3) on lipotrim.co.uk

They are only maintenance though- I went there to see if I could get free trial of LT but alas it was not meant to be! xx

 

[nicki26]

yes,when i spoke to the lipotrim lady on the phone last week 'val' she asked me for my address and sent me one of each maintenance product to try but wasnt sure when to have them. freephone 0800413735 just ask for her if you want to know anything.she is lovely and very helpful xxxxx

 

[cuddlyfairy]

Thanks Nicki and Medea, I have written the number and website in my diary ready for when I get closer to target.
