Advantages: Easy to manage, after a couple of weeks becomes second nature.

Disadvantages: Need close access to toilet facilities.

Hi, After many years of yoyo dieting including using Xenical prescribed by the doctor, my weight just kept on increasing. As a last resort and due to my increasingly poor health the doctor suggested I try lighter life.

I started lighter life on the 31st Dec 2007, I was weighed in at 25st 13lb (with clothes and shoes on) and am 5ft 11".

I was very keen the first week and found that getting into a routine was easy, I made a point of drinking a minimum of 5lts a day of bottled water and was so impressed when I discovered that I had lost 16lbs in the first week.

The second week I found a lot harder, I was suffering caffeine withdraw, and even though I was sticking religiously to the plan I was waking up dreaming of fried breakfasts and savoury pastries, but I was absolutely gutted when I went for my weigh in to discover I had only lost four pounds. Total 20lbs.

Week Three was much better, I had got over my caffeine withdrawal and felt really good and full of energy. I was still drinking a 5ltr bottle of water a day, and my sleep patterns and snoring were a lot better. Weigh in was 10 lbs lost. Total 30lbs.

Week Four, I was fully on the program and had built up a good routine, I was feeling good and sleeping well. Weigh in this week showed a loss of 7lbs I was also measured again and showed a reduction around my stomach of 5" and around my chest of 2.5". Total 37lbs.

Week Five, Continuing on with the program, I have a bar for breakfast about 6.30am and a soup every 4 hours after this. I drink water throughout the day stopping at about 9.30pm thus allowing me to have a good nights sleep without having to get up more than once to go to the toilet. Weight loss this week (a day early as I am on shift tomorrow) 7lbs. Total 44lbs.

So, I have been on the program for 5 weeks and have lost a total of 3 stone 2 pounds. I would highly recommend lighter life.

Tip: I bought a couple of cheap stick blenders (about £5 each) to make up my soups and keep one at home and one in work.

Summary: Started 31/12/07, 5 weeks of contnued weight loss, Total 44lbs to date.
