Hello again all
After 2 weeks on LT, I am throwing in the towel. I have lost 19lbs in 2 weeks and frankly i think its too much too soon. I have felt like crap for two weeks and its not got any better, I cannot deal with the dizzy spells, palpatations feeling weak as a kitten etc
Crunch came today when i forced myself to go back to the gym (i havent had the energy since being on LT). I did 20 mins gentle cylcling 5 mins gentle cross trainer and then went on the walking machine (should that be running!) 5 mins into walking, i felt light headed (more so than usual). i slowed it down and just managed to get off before i thought i was going to black out. The gym manager came in and saw what was happening made me put my head between my legs and breathe deeply. He asked what was the matter and i explained about LT, and of course he dissed it saying that someone of my frame could not exsist of the paltry amount of calories that it gives. He was really helpful and gave me loads of info on successful fat loss diets, that involve eating reall food. When he diets for compettions he aims to lose 2-3lb per week, not 10-12 like me.
So, any tips on coming off this thing and not putting 5st back on in a week?
Thanks for all your help thus far and good luck to you all
PS, my wife feels fine on LT and staying on it:wave_cry:
