Hi ladies
Well i have also just finished my first week and lost 8lbs.
On the first day i had a weird taste in my mouth but that's about all.
I have been lucky so far ( no bad side effects) then again i have been watching what i eat religiously and following a low fat plan. I also have managed to make myself eat breakfast, could never face it but realise i must!
Good luck to all and look forward to heaing how everybody is doing.
Keep up the good work.
Hi, just weighed in following second week on tabs. Lost 3lb first week but disappointed as stayed the same this week. Had one day of not sticking to diet in the last two weeks and had two bars of chocolate on that day but otherwise quite strict with myself. Clothes feel looser so will keep going and see what happens, will try not to keep jumping on the scales as keep getting dis-heartened. Also well done to those of you having great weight losses !!. Maybe it would be good to compare what people are actually eating on a typical day and how much. Keep motivated girls and guys.

Nice to hear so many positive reports, I'm mid first week of taking orlistst and feeling fine,no nasty side effects to report, and clothes are looking better on me so something is obviously working. I will know how well on Friday when I am weighed! Good luck to all of you, Keep trying and be posative!
I'm on day 3 of Orlistat. I've had no side effects - yet. I do have a wedding on Saturday to go to and am a bit worried that the build of the pills may lead to a \"bad experience\". Does anyone know if I should stop taking the pills a couple of days before the weekend to get it all out of my system - or do you reckon that it should be ok?
Any advice is greatly appreciated. How long after having a fatty meal do the side effects start?
