Hi All
Ive been on Orlistat now since early March this year, ive been doing quite well on them overall ive lost 2 1/2 stones. However the past couple of days i've noticed that im having oily incidents almost everytime I go to the loo. Not sure whats causing this as ive been taking them regularly since March and havent changed my diet or eating habbits. Im pretty good at balancing my meals and im 100% sure they contain less that the 15g fat. Just wondered if anyone else had any similar issues after been on the pills for a couple of months.

sorry no and been on them since 01/01/10. the only thing I do notice is that if I near the 15g's or 30g's per day limit my stools are more moist.
can you double check your foods, I mistakenly bought all butter muffins the other week and not the low fat one's and didn't realise until my husband pointed it out.
Well, I dont know whats causing it now. I havent been feeling all that brilliant for a couple of days and the most i've eaten is a few bowls of Special K with semi skimmed milk. Ive still been taking the pills and guess what...... still having an oil slick when I go to the loo....! Starting to get a bit concerned as im going to the loo much more often now also.... arggggggggh. think I should speak to my nurse.
Let us know what she says. Hope you get sorted soon :wink:
