Thinking of LT

[vicky82]

Hi everyone. Ive been on this great site a couple of weeks, practically live on it, and ive been doing SW for 3 weeks, so far ive lost 12.5 pounds.
I was having a wee look at different threads on here this morning and im seriously considering LT. I have so much weight to lose, I dont think I can do losing 1.5 pounds a week, well not for the first 3-4 stone.
I have been on the LT website, watched the vid and found a local chemist, I called them and the girl was great.
I would love love love to lost 3 stone for my birthday (29th july) about 11 weeks. Im 17 stone and a few pounds now, would love to be 14 stone ish for my birthday, this would be a first since my wedding in 2001, thankfully ive divorced the main reason for me being so overweight. haha.

I was thinking of starting next friday, so i have the weekend to get used to it as I know i'll feel tired. Also Mr Tesco has just delivered £200 worth of food about an hour ago.
I have a couple of questions I hope someone can answer.
Chewing gum? I smoke and hate smelling of it so really always am chewing it in work, as its a no no what the hell can I use apart from carrying my toothbrush round in my handbag? lol

When is the best times to drink the shakes? Im up at 6am, in work for 8 and i always have breakfast. I was thinking 9,2&6??

Will I be totally knackered? After a week will I have the same energy as I do now, will I be able to exercise without fainting lol
Thanks so much in advance

Hi and Welcome, you have come to the right place. Well done on your loss so far, thats a great start.
Its certainly possible to lose that weight for your birthday but dont forget we are all made different so dont be disheartened if her next door as lost a pound more.
No chewing gum allowed, but you can have listerine strips. As for times to eat. that will be down to you and your personal curcumstances, as long as you eat all three spaced fairly evenly throughout the day, and dont forget you can split them also.
Now just because people get head aches, feel tired, ect it does NOT mean you are going to.
Just be positive and take it a day at a time. And dont cheat as all your hard work will be ruined.
Good luck on your LT journey xxx

Hi hun, thats the same reason i started this diet, i suppose like a lot on LP i did slimming world for years, besides spending a fortune it was crippling and very disheartening to see the scales go up or down a 1lb which is why i did this, and ive lost 11lb in my first week so DO IT! What have u got to lose besides pounds and thats not sterling!!! jx

Just also wondered (sorry im a pain in the arse) will I be left with loose skin or because im 25, had no kids, will it all spring back on my tummy. I hate my tummy, it has two parts. The top which hangs over my jeans, and the bit that hangs under that. Yuk.
