End of day three and I feel so pleased with myself! :) It hasn't been that bad so far,,,,,
I think I may be in ketosis as I have a funny metallic taste in my mouth, I don't feel too hungry and I have noticed a funny smell!!! wierd! lol Is this correct?
People seem to be passing negative comments on what i'm doing that its not healthy, but i'm sticking to my instincts and going to carry on regardless!
Hope everyone else is well x
 
Sounds like you could be in ketosis honey! Things wil get much easier from now on.

I've had a few people saying the same to me, but this programme used to only be available from doctors, and has been going for many years. If it was unhealthy, it would have been stopped.

The people who are being negative probably don't understand how this works. I actually watched the film on the lipotrim website last night and it was very helpful.

Most of the comments I have had have been that I could never last without food for any length of time! I did eat for Britain before this, so I was very nervous that I would struggle, but I ve been fine.
You are so right to stick with your instincts, remember there are so many health problems related to obesity that many doctors now recommend bariatric surgery to help people lose weight. My GP offered me a gastric bypass on the NHS because of my weight, but I've decided to try this way first. I have a little girl and the surgery is a bit risky, so I don't want her to be without a mum if I can help it!

Lots of luck for the rest of your week!
 
go for it hun, dont listen to the people who put its down, i myself gave in after 6 days and went onto slimming world, since then 3 weeks ago, ive stayed the same, not lost a pound after gaining 1.5 lbs back

im thinking of comong back to lipotrim, and bugger the people who dont agree, it works

and i went into ketosis and day 4 so day 3 could be possible, or maybe your just entering it
 
Thanks Fiona and Natalieann.
I loved food and it is hard having to make tea for the kids and go food shopping, but I know its going to be worth it in the long run. I have surprised myself because I actually thought it was going to be a lot harder this week!

just find something to aim for.

i make my kids food and even clean up after my husbands cooked his and made a right royal mess...

each time i think i want to give in.. i just imagine myself slimmer and in a nice dress for my holidays.


the power of your mind is amazing and once you get into ketosis you loose the urge to eat.............

the first week walking round tescos was hell.. literally all my favourate stuff screamed out to me.. but now its ok.. it does get easier you just turn off to food...

keep goin .. :p
 
Nix, you are so right! Once you get into ketosis, you really aren't bothered about food at all.
Had family pub lunch yesterday and watched them all eat, and actually enjoyed myself! I'm really enjoying cooking for my family and watching them enjoy their food.
I haven't really thought about eating for about a week now. I might see things that tempt me, but I know its all in my mind, and I am not going to quit on this!!
Can't wait to be a shadow of my former self and start really enjoying my life again, eating to live instead of living to eat!
 
I'm going to a wedding in 5 weeks so that will be a short term goal for me. Be nice to buy something a dress size smaller!
I think maybe i'm just starting ketosis as my stomach is still rumbling away, but I do feel a lot better than I did last week.
I have realised that my eating was due to boredom and bad habbit and comfort ... of course!! So I just need to remember that once i'm nice and slim!
Thanks for the comments, its really keeping me motivated :)

Sounds as though you are in total control of this already, good for you!

Your mini goal is good too, I don't know about one dress size smaller, it maybe two!

Keep going as you're going and stay positive and keep drinking that water, just think of it washing away the fat!!
 
Thanks Bev, I'm getting better at glugging down the water.
I've seen that on ebay you can buy LT Water Flavourings, do you know if thats only for maintenance?
Your weight loss is fantastic!! :)
