Good luck Matt!! It's a fantastic program.
My advice would be to reduce your carbs and cut out alcohol whilst you wait for 16th. It will make the transition onto the packs easier for you and going into ketosis easier too.
You could also increase your water and you will be drinking a lot of it soon.
How exciting - you will soon drop your weight, the men seem to loose really fast on LL. xx

Or a mini Matt.
Sounds like you are really ready to make the commitment Matt.
Think of it as a short investment of time and money in your future.
You'll be at your goal before Christmas.
Have you got any "before" photos so you can compare as you lose weight and when you get to goal?
Most of us avoid having our photos taken when we are at our heaviest.
When I started LL I weighed more than you do now. It was one of the best decisions of my life.
I hope it will be for you too.

Hey hun, the ladies have offered sound advice! I have been heavy most of my adult life but this year decided fat and forty something is not a good look and my health was suffering!
I went cold turkey when starting and it worked well no real issues, slight headache that was it really!
Drink plenty of water it defo aids the loss! The water flavourings from your LLC will help if you are not a fan of plain water!
I have lost over 4 stone and feel good for it but had some health issues over the last month or so resulting in me not being able to carry on with total do I do lite, one meal a day. It's been challenging for sure but wearing size 10's and 12's defo make the hard work worth it.
My hair is going through the shedding stage and it's so annoying, my hair is quite long so it's noticeable to me. Not overly concerned though it's natural to shed and as I have been holding onto it for months it probably needs it to get to a good condition.
Good luck, we are all in this together! Xx

Ready for the new me!
Good luck hun 
, Soo exciting isnt it? I had issues with my GP surgery not signing (she told me to keep seeing the dietician for the gastric band ;P) but my LLC refered me to another doctor who happily signed. So if your surgery refuses i would ask your LLC . Exciting times ahead Mr! x

It's funny none of us realise we even have a relationship with food until we make a decision to lose weight, it all falls into place then!
I absolutely love the compliments I get now too, I'm actually beginning to love myself and my life is going to be fab just as I always predicted!! Xx

Yes. You can.
Good job Matt - its good to start weaning yourself a bit in advance!!!
I dont know why some doctors are against it. I saw our Registered Nurse and she was skeptical. But signed. Then when I saw her 2 years later, slim and healthy she was well impressed so hopefully it changed her mind.
Nice pics!! Its fun tracking your progress in photos so take a lot along the way.
Have a good night and god luck with the carb withdrawals!
