The Lighterlife introduction

So I have just returned from the Lighterlife introduction session. It was just me and two women there. The counseller was very nice and also used to be a chunk, which she isn’t now so that was a bit of a motivator.

We had to sit in a room and watch a DVD. I was slightly worried that it would brainwash us and I’d end up in a cult or something. Anyway it didn’t. It also wasn’t too cheesy a DVD and showed some good fat loss stories.

The diet seems ideal for me and I’m going to go with it. I need to go to the doctors before I begin as the weight loss is so quick and its a VLCD (Very Low Calorie Diet) consisting of 550 calories a day, so you need some kind of medical supervision.

First steps - choosing the right diet

Author: Fatboy - Categories: Diet, lighterlife - Tags: ,

I have never been on a proper diet before. I’d always watched what I ate until a couple of years ago. I’ve been planning on doing something about getting fit for ages but with work and everything I’ve been putting it off.

The missus for some reason bought a magazine called Lighterlife (shes under 9 stone wet through) and I got reading on the toilet as it was the only thing available apart from Heat. The stories seem like you can lose weight really quickly and thats what I’m after.

So I jumped on their website and found a “counseller” near me so I could sign up to Fat Club. So I’ve got a meeting at the end of the week to check everything out.
