Welcome ManCityMark - of course it's fine that you are a man.

Good luck with your diet. I'm in the UK but doing Slimming World, my group leader is a chap - how does Lipotrim work?

Hi Moo. Thank you for your message ..

Lipotrim is a food replacement product. It is shakes you make up with water.
Very tough diet but produces quick weight loss.
I was on it back in 2011. I lost 6 stone in 82 days. Like most of us I am rubbish at keeping the weight off. I need to shed 3 stone to take me back to where I was then.

Thank you for following my diary and your comments so far ....

Day 5 .........
Total Loss 14lb .......... water intake has been good , Gym work hasnt though... Just been too busy with work stuff.

Went to a party yesterday for a friends engagement ....... It was really tough ...

The house party started at 2 pm i the afternoon. We go there for 3pm....

lots of people drinking that really was hard to watch, even more so, there was a running buffet all day until 12 midnight when we left ..

I am really proud that I stuckk to my water, joined in the fun and the banter and got through the day without giving in ....

The reward this morning is a full 1 stone loss in 5 days ...

Kudos, Mancitymark, for your consistency in posting here daily. Consistency seems to be a major strategy for staying the path.

There are a bunch of us men here on 3 Fat Chicks despite the name. We do have a thread for men, The Mens Corner where we occasionally stop by to grunt to one another. Mostly we're out and about on all the threads. Seems that stand-to-pee isn't an exclusive aspect of sticking to an eating plan and exercise plan.

Good luck continuing on your journey.

Days 10, 11 ad 12 with no loss. Totally gutting , especially as I gave up a family do last night. However, this can happen on this diet so I have to stay positive. Hoping for a loss tomorrow. Still struggling to get the water on board.

Finally, after 4 days of no loss, another 4lb has gone on day 15 . Total loss after 15 days is 25lb. Was getting really frustrated .... Glad that there was a loss this morning or I might have smashed the scales up with a big hammer.

Still need to up the water intake , played football Sunday and Monday. Got a game tonight and tomorrow. Cycle spinning class on Thursday and circuit training on Friday. Hopefully drop below 14 stone by the weekend.
