Lipotrim- anyone else doing it?

So, i started a new diet today, it's called lipotrim and it's a total food replacement thing. Basically, you have three milkshakes/soups/flapjacks per day, plus lots of water and exercise, and the weight "drops off" i'm told :eek: it's designed for people with atleast 2 stone to lose over about 2 or 3 months, and you can only get it from a GP or pharmacist.

now before you write about the crappiness of fad diets, or how the only sustainable way to lose weight is to eat healthier, smaller portions, and exercise lots... i know it all! :biggrin: maybe i'm lazy, maybe i have no will power, whatever the case, the only reason i posted was to see if anyone else was doing this diet, and if so, how are you getting on?

love sam, the diet addict xxx

And as soon as you stop the silly diet, the weight will just "pile on" :eek:

ah yes, one of the many joys of fad dietting, "putting on what you've just lost" :eek:

:wink: nah, there's actually a weight maintenance programme for once you've reached your target weight, kind of a reintroduction to proper food i guess.

when I saw the title of this thread I though 'liposuction' for some reason!

you never know, my next thread may well be- "enough dieting, lets get the fat sucked out of us instead" haha

My best friend is doing it, since she couldn't afford the Lighterlife one any more. Lighterlife has got a wider variety of flavours to choose from, as well as a support group. My Mum's been doing it a while and hasn't out any of her weight back on :wink:

Why not just go on a simple calorie controlled diet?
