Okay, so first month, great, about 12lb gone! Since then I've only lost about another 3. Okay, I say only, I know that's great, but I have my second goal now of losing 4kg more by the end of January, and nothing is shifting! I'm not expecting huge losses each month again, but not losing anything now and worried I'll get taken off the Orlistat and gain everything back!
Any ideas?!
WOW you have lost over a stone in weight, that is fantastic, well done you.
As to nothing shifting, are you still counting fat, i only ask because all of the other diets i was on in the past i noticed that after every good loss i became a bit lax with sizes and things and maybe you are doing that but the other way around, (not having enough for tablets to be working). And also every one does have great losses in first few weeks but then it usually settles down to a smaller amount coming off steadily.
Are you doing much exercise?
I'm sorry if this doesn't help, its the only things i can think of.
Good luck, and don't beat yourself up too much, you have still had a fantastic loss

The weight loss will slow down after the first month.. what with losing water etc the first month...
It may also mean you need to eat less (as you have lost weight) and excercise more
Hi guys
Thanks for your replies. I'm really not doing anything differently to how I was eating and exercise-wise...if they're not working anymore I don't really mind being taken off them, I'll still count my fat and everything as they've been such a huge eye-opener, but I just hope I don't gain anything back once I'm not on them! I've not really lost anything in about 2 months.
I just really want to have SOMETHING to show this next weigh in, and at this rate I'm not going to be able to eat anything remotely yummy at Christmas! (Next target to be achieved by Jan!)
