Found this great little article that I found very useful and will probably go back and look at a few more times in the future.

Weight Loss

Well, I made it.
I started a meal replacement program at the end of March 2007 with the intention of loosing 4 stone in 4 months. The meal replacement program was 3 shakes a day along with 4 litres of water, this includes no "real food" what so ever! No milk, chewing gum, mints, absolutely NOTHING and I will say it was the second hardest thing I have done in my life. The first hardest being giving up smoking.

The reason why I undertook this challenge is because Andy and I are getting married next year (August 2008) and I didn't want to walk down the isle feeling uncomfortable and not looking my best. I now weigh the same as I did when Andy and I got together and I must say I'm very pleased with my achievement!

I have now been on the maintenance plan for a week where I have been introducing "real food" back into my life and I will be on it for another 2 weeks. After the two weeks I will be full time eating food.

I received 12 sessions with a personal trainer of my birthday which will help me tone up and get into shape.

I would just like to say thank you to Pat (www.higginpharmacy.co.uk) for pointing me in the direction of Lipotrim and recommend it to anyone who wants to loose that extra weight they dont want.
