Hi everyone today was my first weigh in after taking the tablets for 4 weeks and I have lost 10lb which I am over the moon with. X
Wow.... well done xx
well done! Keep going
well done Rachel, I would be really happy with that weight loss on my first weigh in too, I have to wait another 2 weeks and keep focused, before my first weigh in
Hi Rachel, Fantastic news. I started taking Orlistat a week ago and also joined Slimming World hoping that the combination might help me. I lost 2.5lbs first week which disappointed me a bit but am trying to keep going and hope for a better 2nd week. Perhaps weighing in after 4 weeks is a better way of doing it.
Keep going and fingers crossed for your continued success.
Regards
Heidi
Hi thanks for your support. I was really surprised I do try and follow slimming world too but you have to be careful with some as some recipes some have a lot of fat in them. I don't go to a group just get the mags and bars etc. I would recommend not weighing your self every week do it every 4 weeks. I have been on these tablets before and I lost 3st but it got to stage where I was weighing my self every day well 2 times a day I was a bit obsessed I promised I wouldn't do that again. Good luck to everyone. Xx
Thats amazing!!!
Well done you
I hope I am as successful!! My 4 week weigh in is Friday 13th June (what a day for a weigh in lol)
Well done you that's a great result . You must be over the moon.
I've a while for my weight in on 16th June .
How have you found
Sorry pressed wrong button .
How have you found planning meals ?
Have you any tips?
I thought I was doing great until 4am this morning !!!! Enough said , bit scared of eating now :-(
Hiya, I have been on them before so I have a good idea what I can and can't eat but sometimes mistakes happen. I usually have a boiled egg for breakfast with a slice of bread or wetabix for dinner it's always salad then tea usually home cooked meal. I do fin slimming world helps just be careful with some of the. Recipes that have cheese in. I wasn't expecting a 10lb weight loss it was a surprise I jut hope I can continue it. When did you start the pills? X
I've just passed my 1st week , my problem is I love. The sweet stuff cakes ,chocolate ,kids sweets &biscuits , so for me going from eating in secret to what I'm doing now I have amazed myself.
I love my hot chocolate on a morining , I got lidi own mAke thinking I would be ok .
Had 2 cups think it was 6g of fat per 100g, it must of tipped me over the edge .
O boy I felt it 4 am , well we all
Learn by our misktake's .
Have you got much to lose x
It's trial and error. I take green tea extract too which my nurse told me about it helps I took them before I manage to loose 3st before but I put it all back on + more my goal is to loose 5 stone that's how much I have put on over the past 5 years and it really gets me down. I ain't bought no new clothes for years just wear the same old things. Iam not a big fan of sweet I prefer savoury which is even worse but i just think if I want to loose it I have to give things up. I love a beer too which isn't good but I just wait to a weekend then have a drink and it's tastes nicer ha ha. How much have you for to loose? X
Weight it just gets you down , think positive and we will soon shift it .
I would like to lose 4 st I'm 16.5 st at present .
Like you I lost a whole heap of weight I even ran a gym for 5 years . I was size 10/12 then, but I got poorly and had to stop , it's taken best part of 8 years to put the weight back on.
I've just had enough of say I'm happy the way I am , as I'm not I feel really positive that I'm going to beat my fat blues xxxx
Just talking to other people help I could never go to slimming world or weight watchers I'm not a group person xx
Yes I agree talking does help, but I have never had the confidence to join a slimming group I do follow slimming world but only through the mAgs and the online recipes.
I can't do any weight bearing exercise so I am limited. I do like walking though.
I don't know if you have already done this but I was told to measure your self hips, leg, arm, busy etc sometime you loose inches before lbs. x
Yes I'm all measured up ha ha just had tea chicken salade and a few new potatos NO butter berries and yourgrt to follow.
When you take your tablets do you get bloated feeling, also when I eat I get a right grumbly tummy . Has this happened to you .
I'm sure other people like group sliming clubs and get a lot out of them. It took me a week to pluck up the courage to write on here .
Here's looking to at lighter life xx
That's good then. Yes I get bloated too not all the time just some times. I find that if you drink water whilst you are eating that helps. I get really windy too. Your tea sounds nice. I have had chicken in pitta with salad yum yum. I try not to eat potatoes and bread during week.x
Hi
I get really bloated too. But I have been drinking loads of water and it makes loads of difference for me. I dont know how to stop the wind tho! Lol. xx
I no I was expecting wind but not like this ,my poor old cat getting the blame lol
Think the family are on to me !!!
I think that's just one I te side effects we have to live with. How are you doing with the weight loss Sam?
Ha ha love it. X
