I fit into my wedding dress perfectly but after trying it on again last night i had a bit of a brake down.. i felt and looked like a hippo :( So need a quick weightloss option.. so has anyone on here tried the lipotrim diet? or know anyone who has been on it? I have heard its quick but healthy weightloss.I am going to pop to the chemist today and enquire about it :)

I have just started it today!!! It was recommended by my friend. It is healthy and is monitored by your pharmacy. It is £36 per week, but you have to give up food completely (so I think the cost is sort of costs neutral) until you are at your goal weight, then they reintroduce food. They say the avarage weightloss is a stone a month and you have to need to loose a stone to be elligible to do it. If you decide to do it I would like to keep in touch for moral support as this NO FOOD at all business is a little scary but I need to loose 2 stone and I am determined to get it off this time. Kat x

I should imagine you do loose quite a bit of weight if you don't eat food? do you have supplements as well? how does it all work? I need to loose weight but thinking this mich be a bit drastic for me

I'm going to bookmark this as I hope you get some good replies and advice.
I posted this in the weightloss thread but here it is again for those who dont post on there:
Ive used lipotrim and personally Id never use it again. I lost 2.5 stone in 9 weeks and lost it far too quickly, ended up with blackouts and very ill off it. Also ended up with a lactose intolerance after I went back onto normal food. Its aquick fix but when you loose the weight you look gaunt and ill. Needless to say I put all that weight back on and more once I went back onto normal food!

CommentAuthorMrsBroady2B
I really need to lose weight. Dont think this would work for me. I'm a fussy eater and I eat all the wrong things. I have a big fear of trying anything new and I dont know how to get passed it. I would like try and loose 2st for the big day but I dont see it happening. I'v signed up on a dieting site a supermarket is running, and i'v just set up to watch my calories intake whilst keeping a food diary. I think this is a good idea as then you start to realise what it is your eating. I just need to try and remember to keep going on the site everyday and inputting my food. It also gives you exersises to do as well.
CommentAuthorLegoWife
MrsBroady2B has the right idea. It's all about cals in, cals out and keeping a balance. With exercise it's not healthy to try and lose more than 2lbs a week.
Cause else you'll just end up with loose skin.

Why dont you try slimming world?? Sensible eating & good healthy excersise.
I have done slimming world while pregnant & when not pregnant. Im back on it during this pregnancy because after my due date i have 3 wks to fit into my wedding dress.
You can eat what you want on slimming world, endless amounts of pasta & meat. Even still aloud alcohol & takeaways.
Ive done most of the quick fix diets but for my wedding day, i want to enjoy myself & be able to eat & drink with out passing out or being ill because i have hardly ate anything leading up to the wedding.
Sorry for ranting or sounding like a mum lol but i believe it good old fashioned healthy eating & excersise x

Thanks for all your replies. I went on a natural diet back in 2010, just counted my calories and done lots of exersice, but now i have put it all back on plus more i have no get up and go what so ever.. I would rather do a normal diet, but i need it quick as i have less than 3 months till we jet off :)
So I went to the pharmacy today, have all the info and will hopefully be starting lipotrim tomorrow.. I am soo scared, because i love food, but i have to do it now, for my future etc i dont wana be going on holiday feeling huge and uncomfortable. so fingers crossed my determination will overcome my hunger and cravings :)
KATG keep in touch, be good to share our stories etc :)

nooooooooooooooooo I can not stress how much this is a bad bad idea. Work collegue used it and lost far too much in such a short period of time that even the school kids became worried. He had no energy and really did feel like poo. You dont want to be feeling like poo in 3 months. He knew it wasnt healthy but didnt care because he saw it as a quick fix. He knew all the blurb was false advertising (the idea its monitored by a pharmacist doesnt make it safe) as he understood clearly what it all involved and admitted himself it was highly dodgy. After he finished he admitted he knew the risks and should have listened and would never EVER do it again. He put the weight on even quicker than he lost it (by eating sensibly even) and even put on more weight. He had to then go on a low calorie diet and gradually build himself up. I cant stress enough to not do this but it is your choice. Please just dont be fooled by the idea a pharmacist monitors you. It is not a good thing.... they monitor you for a reason. Because its so dodgy but it bypasses legislastion because of how it is classfied. If you choose to do this, please do all relevant research first and make an informed decision. And dont just ask an over the counter pharmacist. See a proper doctor.

CommentAuthorKATG
Thanks Suzky, but it is monitored quite closely by the pharmacy, and prior to that it was a diet that would be monitored by your doctor. You can't get the sachets without going to the pharmacy. Also my friend did lost 3 stone in 3 months and has kept it off fine, she didnt get ill either. I just think its horses for courses. I have spent the last 12 months eating 1200 calories a day, religiously, and going to the gym 3 to 4 times a week. I have lost weight but it is slow and frustrating and I find myself straying now. I came off it completely and binged over christmas and put 10lbs on! So I am going to try this, I have done Atkins in the past and so I know that Ketosis makes me feel tired for a week or 2, so I'm ready for that. If I feel Ill I'll stop. I have spoken in detail, not over the counter, to the pharmacist, I have watched the DVD and discussed with a friend that did it. So I'm gonna give it a go.

CommentAuthorShirleygirly
When I was younger I tried something like this and lost nearly 2 stone (even though I didn't need to) as soon as the plan finished I had a diet plan to follow of healthy balanced meals. Unfortunately I wasn't aware that we can all lose weight quickly for the short term by not eating but that puts the body into starvation mode and then when you start eating your body stores everything in case you starve again. So after losing nearly 2 stone I rapidly put on 3.5 stone. I am now only a stone overweight and that is through watching what I eat (most of the time) and exercising. I would never try a quick fix again because it really messed with my head and my health.
For the ladies trying this method, be prepared to put on nearly double the weight once you've started eating again.
I should also point out that Alli can only be obtained via a pharmacist and that causes anal leakage so just because something comes from a Pharmacist doesn't mean it's the best thing.
Good Luck! x

CommentAuthorLegoWife
It's the kind of thing really that you can do yourself for a whole lot cheaper, when you think about it. Only eat soup, cereal bars and shakes, supplement with vitamin pills to get the nutrients you're starving yourself of and you will lose weight quickly. But do it for a length of time and you'll be seen as having an eating disorder.
Spending money on it and going through a pharmacist makes it seem safe but ultimately doesn't make a blind bit of difference.

CommentAuthorHa_x3
You would think so Hollhollholly, But the replacement saches you get from the chemist only add up to 425 calories per day.. a cereal bar is 100 calories plus and soup is 200calories plus.. so yes it works out cheaper but unfortunatly wont work as quickly!
As soon as i return from my honeymoon in may i will diet properly, just using this as a quick fix for my wedding :)
Anyway just got back from the chemist with my weeks supply.. I will start tomorrow morning so wish me luck :) will keep everyone updated how i get one xx

CommentAuthorkirsty91
All u girls trying these tablets are mental! Try something sensible and life changing like slimming world. Lose a stone healthily in 4 weeks, make lifestyle changes! If you do try lipotrim I hope you don't get negative side effects, but personally I don't tjink you ladies should do this. Think of the saggy skin and stretch marks you'll get losing weight so quickly. Not to mention the amount of muscle wastage. Just because you can buy it, doesn't mean its safe. And just because its monitored by a pharmacist doesn't make it better. Pharmacists aren't doctors or nurses. I really hope for your sakes you take a second thought about this.

Good Luck on the lipotrim, I'm doing weightwatchers and invested in a pedometer from them and it tells you how many steps you need to walk a day and then it tells you how many miles you've walked, I've bought their cook book and there are loads of 'normal' yummy recipes in it. I've managed to lose 4lbs in just under 3 weeks. I've obviously got longer til my wedding but just wanted you to know that these sort of diets can work too and you can still enjoy your food x

Just an update if anyone is interested. I lost 8lbs in my 1st week and I am due to be weighed again on tuesday. I am not hungry anymore ( this took about 3 days to pass) and I feel really good, full of energy. I felt tired and had headache for a day or 2 but that has passed now. So far nothing in the way of illness but I am monitoring this.
