Hi All :wave_cry:,
Just got myself registered after starting a Lipotrim diet on Monday.
Looking at my weight and not being able to get a grip to lose it, a wonderful 9 month old son and the prospect of all manner of bad health issues on the horizon:cry: - it seemed daft not to grab the fat bull by the horns and wrestle it down.
Started on Monday after an enjoyable week-end eating my fave foods and drinking my fave wines (not to excess I might add!).
Been a bit of a rollercoaster since then, a bit of light-headiness, stomach cramps and nausea but......I’ve not been feeling hungry and weight seems to be coming off nicely thank-you-very-much
.
The thing I miss most is cooking in the kitchen for my wife and sitting down to eat an enjoyable meal with a nice bottle of red. When I’ve got a grip on the diet, I hope to at least still cook for her and sit down at the table eating my food with her enjoying the food I’ve prepared for her – but early doors eh?
The story so far…………………
Found the shakes OK – surprised I favoured the choccie over the vanilla as I normally like vanilla over choccie!
Flapjacks – surely trade descriptions would have something to say about that title but coconut far better than the peanut ones (although I couldn’t taste the peanuts!).
Chicken soup(ish) – found one measure too much. As I’m on a male diet, I’ve found it better to use half a portion of soup with slightly more water (500ml) – it seems to make it more soupy. I use my other half portion the next day. To make up my quota of portions, I have my flapjack in the morning and dunk it in a nice cup of tea – still got some habits to preserve after all eh!
Day 1 – fine.
Day 2 – slight tummy ache + headaches.
Day 3 – same as 2
Day 4 – feeeeeelin good.
Day 5 – pm – bad stomach ache + nausea but after phoning the Pharmacist, he advised that I should try some carbonated water which knocked that on the head.
Day five was a bit of a scare as I was worried I might have to come off it and re-feed but now I’m back on track and looking forward to my first weigh in on Monday.
Look forward to all the support and comments Mini-Mins offers
