Shall I go to W/I or not? Almost done...

Can I have your opinions please? I'm just about done with L/T... I'm using up the sachets I've got during the day and having a meal at night. I'm still very much watching what I eat and have not and don't intend to go back to my old greedy habits.

Last week I went for w/i and I'd stayed the same. I'm supposed to go and get weighed tomorrow. On my scales I've dropped a pound perhaps. If I go there and get weighed and I've stayed the same again or put a pound on (it's time of month), I'll be disappointed, and also I'm getting close to them not selling me any more LT even if I needed some because I'm close to being spot on what I'm meant to be BMI wise.

On my scales, first thing in the morning, starkers, I'm 10st. I have not been 10 stone for 15 years. I'm 5ft 3ins tall and I'm top heavy so I can stand a couple of pounds over what the ideal bmi is. I'm size 8 jeans and size 16 tops now.

So the upshot is, shall I go and get weighed or not? Is it time to say goodbye to the pharmacy and just log in here periodically to keep myself on an even keel?

thanks

Anybody? I'm dithering...

well done on gettingto 10 stone!! Thats amazing. I wouldnot know what to do about getting weighed -if it keeps you focussed I'd go. And it will show more dedication than simply staying away I'd guess.

Dont be disappointed either way because you know you've done amazingly well.

thanks, I think I've done well too... I have a problem with my o/h though... every time I eat something, he says "I thought you were on a diet", and generally has a go at me. I can't get through to him that I can't be on a diet for the rest of my life. I had a cup of tea last night, and had one digestive biscuit... just one, I'd looked forward to it all day, and he called me fatty... I could have cried. Am I never to eat one biscuit ever again? Am I to be made to feel guilty every time I eat something?

maybe he doesnt realise hes putting pressure on u, sit him down and explain to him...hes a man sometimes it needs to be spelt out to them!!

also well done on ur loss, and id say go wi..the hole point of doing this is to get to where u wanna be then go off into the real world!! ur there so take the leap!!
if ur still not loosing and wanna keep going on lt either make the decision to come off and go ww or something, or lt and a small protein meal, or then just lt!! (this is my opinion obviously it depends on ur situation etc)

good luck though xxx

Hi Zanya, sounds like your OH could do with a slap.....You have done sooo well, don't let the achievments be put down like that. You sound to me like your happy were you are no, so stick with that. maybe one final weigh in wouldn't kill you, but then make the decision...Good luck whatever you decide.

I'd go for the weigh in and discuss with pharmacy whether to continue with packs/how to wean off them and refeed.

Can't comment on your OH as don't want to be rude x

Lol Tara, i'm trying to bite my tongue too! I wont elaborate on the husband!

I personally would go on re-feed for a month maybe?? It might be safer than going to a normal diet?? Sorry i'm not very clued up on the re-feed stage. Congrats on your weight loss, how i'd love to be 10 stone!! Simone x

Thanks guys. He is an arse, no question. It was him who didn't want me to go on the diet, saying it wouldn't work, would make me ill, yadda yadda.

TBH, I know when I go to W/I I'll either be the same or have gained 1lb. Either way, it's excellent, BUT.... I am missing the thrill of losing. Yes I'm 10st / 10st 2lb from nearly 13 stone, size 8 jeans from a size 12, size 16 tops from a 22, but there is nothing as thrilling as going to your w/i and being told you've lost a couple of pounds, and I just know I won't have, basically because I haven't tried to.

The thrill's gone. And I feel so sad, and also so guilty because I've no right to feel sad at all. :cry:

Am I going mad?

Hey hun, you said you're near the point where you won't be allowed any more shakes but your ticker says BMI 30 and the cut-off point for pharmacists giving out LT is about 20. From that point of view you'd be fine. I understand the missing the losses but only you can really decide what you truly want to do. Go with what you think is best for you.

No, my ticker shows how much weight I've lost... 30 - 31lb. My BMI is 24.9 according to the NHS website, I put my weight in at 10st 2lb and height 5ft 3". I'm only just teetering on the edge of 'healthy weight' though, a couple of pounds more and I could be in the 'overweight' category.

O/H says I'm kidding myself that I'm thin. :cry:

I'll say what everyones thinking.......... ignorant stupid twat of a man!!!!

You are into a size 8 jeans........ nowhere on this planet is a size 8 fat!!!

And I bet he loves your top heaviness! Tell him to shut up or cook him a pie with dog food or something equally evil, that will give you a grin everytime you think of it, and he doesn't have to know LOL

Chin up girl, your amazing.... and your man should think so too!

PMSL, thanks for that!

Well, I went to get weighed. I have lost .2 - that's point two - of a kilo, hardly registered, so I'm calling it a day and plan to maintain with the shakes I've got left, and healthy, low carb, sensible eating.

I have a celebration weekend in Dublin this weekend so will probably have to work hard to burn that off next week but hey - I can do that. I'm never going back to fat. A few pounds here and there I can live with, but they'll be temporary storage and will be disposed of.

I went to M&S tonight and bought size 36G bras - my 40G bras are hanging off now. Joy.

I'm staying here though, on this forum. I might alter my weight details to reflect what it says on my scales, but I need to come in here for the discipline. I won't blab on about what I've been eating, I'll just hang around if that's ok.

And my man? Well I told him a white lie, said I'd lost 1lb and that I was calling it a day and staying where I am, didn't want to lose any more, still want my curves and don't want to look like a bag of railings. He's cool with that, but any more of that crap he's been spouting and I'll be wearing his balls for earrings.

Thank you all for your support. Anyone out there who is doubting Lipotrim or finding it hard, yes it is hard but God, is it worth it.
