I'd be interested in this too, as i'm due on then also.
 
hey girls.
not an expert in this department since I very rarely get a period... I have been on LT for 3 months and have had 1 period.. which lasted 2 weeks. Cant remember what I lost in the first week of totm but in the second week I lost 6lbs...

Unfortunately from everything else I have read on this site everyone I know so far has had not so good weigh ins at totm so I would not worry if you had a bad weigh in. saying that I think pretty much everyone can say that their wi week after totm made up for it!..

My totm is just mega strange. very heavy.. so I was surprised that I lost 6lbs that week :S
 
just realised... my totm was week 1 and week 2 of restart.. and I lost 12lbs altogether :s now that is very strange.... and I think everyone else who has had a totm on this will agree!
 
It made a huge difference to me. I lost aprox 3-4lbs a week, but at TOTM I'd be lucky to lose 1-2......then the next week 6lbs!! You will lose the fat, but the scales may not show that until the week later.
 
A lot of women do retain more water at time so your loss is not be so obvious but you will see an improvement the following week.

On lipotrim and lighterlife I lost the same as normal at totm...I never gained any weight or lost less than 3 pounds I don't think...
 
I was actually due on this week, but had a show of a period day 2 of lipotrim. Without being graphic, its sort of started but not reached full on period if you know what I mean, been going on for a week now. So, I have no idea what my weigh in will be like next week! I'm confused...and so is my body I guess lol. So i'm just gonna go with the flow (scuse pun) :)
 
Demaris, one of the possible side effects of vlcds is halt in menstruation...as is hair loss, smelly breath, fatique, dizziness and other minor disruptions to normal bodily functioning...remember you are suddenly starving your body and it will conserve energy in many ways...not everyone sees symptoms and side effects, I only had the hair loss which was worrying enough...don't fret, it is normal (well you know what I mean)
 
I think oneof the reasons for hair loss, which usually occurs when you stop lipotrim, is that your body holds on to the hair as it sees it as a possible source of nutrition, then when you are off it you loose more hair as you have been holding on to it... i have read most people s hair grows back as normal at around 3 months out of ketosis.. and is in no way permanent!! I am open to correction tho!! I love your name chellywellyboot, where did ya get that one from heheh xxx
 
I was losing my hair DURING my vlcds...not after...and yes it does grow back, you will have loads of those curly little baby hairs on your head soon enough when you get onto maintenance...
 
aah thats ok!!! Thank you!!
Id be lost without my hair lol!!

Well my name is Chelcie, And my friends Started calling me Chelly and then welly boot got added on some how lol... I also get called Cheesely :D
My friends are so kind to me lol!!
 
The hair loss is only noticeable to yourself, you don't end up with bald patches or anything...again, it may not affect you this way as most of the women in my group on lighterlife did not notice any hair loss at all...

Good luck with lipotim... theyll be callin ya chellymatchstick soon enough heheh x
 
and I got my first dose of real dizziness about half an hour ago, was quite worrying really,, again i think it may be because of totm.. wondering does your blood sugar change around this time, or perhaps it is a lack of iron maybe.. hope i dont get many more spells as i near fell of the loo x:eek:
 
haha Chelly matchstick!! :D

I dont mind the nicknames :D

I would sometimes get dizzy arround TOTM before LT so i suspect it probably is to do with it.
If it continues ask ur pharmasist, but im sure its ok :D
