Blue's going from flab to fab in 2012

I just hope the scales are nice to me on weigh in day this sunday.
I know feeling and seeing the losses on my body is great but I also need to see the number on the scales going down to believe I'm losing!

It has snowed here again.
But it's sunny too so I doubt it will last long and I'm glad coz I'm off to visit a friend at the weekend. I dont go out much so I've been looking forward to this for ages.
 
It's weigh in day on sunday and I'm worried coz it's totm and I feel bloated.

Also just been reading the lipotrim board and they seem to have such mega losses and I'm getting really jealous!
Even people smaller than me are. Someone has lost 3 stone in just 5 weeks.
I would have thought at my size that the weight would have been falling off even faster but it's not and it's annoying me!
If I could drive and get to a pharmacy I would seriously be considering lipotrim.
 
Hey blue butterfly, you shouldnt be jealous, you've had a great loss so far. Hope I can stick to it as long as you have.

3 stone in 5 weeks!?!?! I wonder if they've chopped a leg off. I have no idea what lipotrim is but it sounds like a miracle x
 
Thanks moomoo, I am proud of myself for sticking to this for so long but I was kind of expecting more lbs off in the first month tbh.
My body just doesn't seem to want to let go of the fat!

Lipotrim is another VLCD like exante but you get it from a pharmacy and get weighed weekly by the pharmacist.
It's about 425cals a week.

I know anything under 800 cals is considered a VLCD and we should lose the same weight on all VLCD's as they are under 800 but if people are losing more on lipotrim than I am on exante then surely the almost 200cals really does make a difference to weight loss.

Argh, ramble over.
 
From reading posts on here, I gather that quite a few of the vlcd are less calories than exante (dont think I could survive on much less though)

I lost 12lb in the first week so almost where you were and if I lose the same as you in the following weeks then I'll be very happy.

Just remember, a loss is a loss and at least you havent gained any weeks. Everyone loses weight at different rates but all in all you are losing and thats the main thing x
 
I was thinking is there any reason we couldn't cut down to 2 packs a day and take a multivitimin? Just a thought if lipotirm is only 425 a day
 
200 kcal a day wouldnt make much of a difference, 1lb of fat is 3500kcal so a deficiet of 200 x 7 is 1400 which isnt even half a pound plus liptorim is so expensive!
 
I'll stick with exante then!
I guess I just get a bit annoyed when I see people that weigh less than me losing weight quicker! I should just focus on my own journey and be pleased that I'm losing :D

I feel rotten today though, really bunged up and bloated so will have to sort that out tonight as it's weigh in day tomorrow.

I am hoping for another 4lb loss at least but we'll see.

Try not to get disheartened, I've seen people who weigh the same as me lose 1lb a week on SW when I was pulling between 2-4lb a week.

its about your journey and how you get there. We are all taking exante because we want fast results, but imagine if you were doing sw or ww? cc or diet? you would be losing 1-2lb a week!

If aint broke dont fix it :)
 
Oh I'm in pain :(
My tummy is killing me, have taken some dulcolax pico perles so hopefully I'll feel better in the morning.
I've been bunged up before but have never been this bad, urgh I feel horrible.
 
Thank you :D

I am off to stay with a friend for a few days, leaving later this afternoon, I will be sticking to 100% TS while I'm away. I wont use special occassions as an excuse to eat loads!


Aawww this morning my little brother told me that I look like I've lost weight, yay that someone has noticed!
 
Well done! they're great losses. you're doing so well :)

There will always be times that you will be envious of other's successes. I for one would like the losses you are having!,
Don't compare yourself to others, this diet works and you and I are proof of it, just we all lose at different rates. Keep it up you have had another good week you are an inspiration xx
 
Well done bb! :D
 
Well I am back from home from my little few days break with a friend and I stayed 100% TS the whole time, I'm actually quite proud of myself.

It's mid afternoon and I've just weighed myself (this is after drinking tons of water already) and I've lost 4lbs since sunday, I'm hoping sundays weigh in will be a good one and none of those lbs creep on before then!
It seems though that being away has made me lose more weight!!
