Lighter Life Reviews

I've read the reviews good and bad on this site and thought i'd add my experience too! I've yo-yo dieted for much of my adult life and i can honestly say that the lighterlife programme is the easiest i've ever done and definately the one that gives the best results. I have just finished the 14 week foundation programme and i'm 5 stone & 2lbs ...  Read the complete review

End of my second day on lighter life and i can't believe how i have actually managed to get through 8 shakes and no food. Its so hard not eating food but as long as you have your 4 shakes they do fill you up , your mind will want eat and you suddenly realise you spent alot more time munching than you thought you did. I hope i have the ...  Read the complete review

Hi, I have completed my first week and have lost 10lb!! Yippee. I am delighted with the results so far and have lost almost 2 inches from my previous measurements 7 days ago.. The first 2 days I suffered from very bad headaches, by day 5 I was feeling light headed and weak. I spoke to my counsellor about this and she suggested that rather than have my last soup/shake at 6pm like I was doing to have it a bit later say around 8pm or 9pm and to have my breakfast shake first thing when I wake up rather than wait til 10am like I was doing. I have been doing this for last couple of days and the light headedness has gone. Overall im feeling fine now and getting weighed last night gave me such a boost to continue with the program.

Lighter Life Works - of course it does. You are eating a very small amount of Calories and drinking loads of water. But what about afterwards?!! I experienced the Lighter Life programme back in 2002/2003 and lost a total of 6 1/2 stone in seven months. I never deviated from the programme ever. I found it easy not having to think about what I ...  Read the complete review

I need to loose 4stone and started lighter life 2 weeks ago, i have lost 14lbs already!! The hardest part for me was the 1st night, hungry, which surprised me, i thought it would be later in the week. Once i got that over it has been fine. I haven`t been hungry again at all. The shakes & soups really do taste ok. The 2 weeks i have been doing ...  Read the complete review

Hi, this is my 4th day on lighterlife...its been hard, but hopefully i would have lost some weight by monday, when i get weighed, I like the shakes, very nice...the soups r ok, i felt sick the 1st two days...was very horrible...but hopefully today it will be fine...my weight when i got weight was 78.8, i really hope i have lost a lot more...its very tiring, sumtimes i just feel like eating food, when i see my brothers eating all that lovely food, also when i have to feed my child...
has anyone done any excercise during their 1st week...let me know how all of you are doing....and what your doing with the packets....thanks

Oh my god! I am currently 1 and three quarter days through the programme and it is a Friday evening. I should be going out with my friends but am determined to give this a go. I am absolutely famished and am trying to find things to do to take my mind off food - easier said than done! I went to bed at 8.00pm last night as I thought ...  Read the complete review

Hi, I started lighterlife 8 weeks ago and have found it to be the best thing I have ever done. I have the support of those around me which I think is essential as otherwise I think it could be more difficult. The program itself works perfectly for me as there are no grey area's you just have to say no!! I have been to weddings, hen nights and functions whilst I have been on it but all have been manageable and enjoyable. To anyone out there who has lost their self confidence and feels at a loss with all the other weight loss programs - GIVE IT A GO!!!!! I'm already 2 stone ligher and love it!

HI, I wonder if anyone can help me, Im thinking about setting up a lighter life business. The outlay to do this is costly. I wondered if anyone can contact me who is on LL or is thinking about joining LL so I can see how many customers are out there.

Thanks

Hi

I started LL in June last year finished in November. My start weight was 22 stone 4 and I finished at 11 stone 7. I have to say that the first week was hell but after that it just became life.

LL are great in that at the end of the course they do help you to eat a regular diet.

Please remember that LL is not for everyone.

Alex

P.S The last pair of jeans that I bought before LL were 46'' I now have 30'' jeans.

Please stop risking your health, this diet is so bad for you join weight watchers you eat real food just control your portion sizes and you get results! Lighter life results are temporary when you go back to normal eating .......... and you will, you will put on the weight you lost and maybe a bit more, and I pray your hair doesnt fall out. Just ...  Read the complete review

Iv'e done this diet and successfully lost 3 1/2 stone. The counselling sessions and tools that come with the diet are excellent. I feel great. I sailed throught the abstinence part of the diet but found the maintenance part a bit of a struggle but with the support of my counsellor and group therapy Its not so bad. At the end of the day its me ...  Read the complete review

I did the lighter life diet exactly a year ago and lost 4 stone to get to 9st 4. Your body lets you know when enough is enough and eventhough my target weight was 9stone, I was ready. I am going back on it for a month as I have been unwell since Christmas and put on a stone, but I know that with the help of my councellor and a month of ...  Read the complete review

Hi!! Have just finished my second day of abstinence and I feel good so far (no real hunger pangs). Thursday was my first meeting and my counsellor was very honest about lighterlife said it wasn't going to be easy at first but it really would get better after a couple of weeks. You are required to have a form signed by your GP to state you are ...  Read the complete review

im starting lighterlife on monday and well im kind of excited and scared. love all the stories here. great inspiration. i just cant wait for change.
the things that scare me are about the after the diet finishes you tend to put weight back on?
any advice from anyone?
thanks
anyone else starting soon? it would be great to hear from other men who are doing this and are starting soon.

I started LL in January. I put off starting for 2 sessions, because I wasn't ready mentally of physically. The thought of drinking black tea and drinking 4 litres of water made me physically ill. However, one day I woke up feeling very positive, bought my food packs and have never looked back. The counselling sessions are very good, ...  Read the complete review

I am due to start Lighter Life next Tuesday and have been reading the reviews on here with great interest. I will be sure to post on here my experiences but just now I am feeling very excited about starting. I have been overweight since having my oldest daughter 15 years ago and have failed on just about every diet going so this has to work for ...  Read the complete review

Hi All, I completed the LL programme successfully about a year ago, and lost 2 stone very quickly, I did have to stop because of the costs involved, and also because there was a lady who had lost 10stones in my class who was returning after gaining it all back and some (can you imagine how much money she had spent) I have since put the weight back ...  Read the complete review
