I have been taking Orlistat for just over a month and am due to be weighed for the first time tomorrow. I have lost half a stone, is this good or bad?
Any weightloss is GOOD weight loss and half a stone in 4 weeks is very good

Thanks Britney! I must confess I am not a massive eater of fat. Only 2.5 more stones before I am at a healthy range although the top end of it.
Hi I. Lost 7lbs in 5 weeks so you have done better than me I don't think I was having enough fat sort of cut it out all together so what I have lost apparently I have done on my own I've added a little fat now so keeping everything crossed I think you have done well good luck xx mags
I don't have a lot of fat in my diet at all, I have not had any of these horrid side effects everyone else talks about but nor have I had dramatic weight loss. I think I posted for advice really as I am not sure I am doing this right at all!
Thanks Donna, well I guess we both lost weight which is a plus. Have just been calculating properly when I started and it's actually been 28 days. I have been away on holiday in that time so have not been dieting too strictly. Hopefully now I am back and can get on it properly weight loss may improve. The way I look at it if I can lose 1/2 a stone a month in by the end of January 2015 I will have lost the 3 stone I wanted to and needed to to have a healthy BMI!
Its a pleasure gonna try eating a little more fat like my nurse advised but not enough to get the oops xx mags PS my nickname x
Maybe I will try that too if that's what a nurse said. The thought of oily accidents terrifies me!
Side effects only come from eating Junk food/ anything over 5g in fat per 100g x
Thanks! I don't eat meat or dairy and any junk I was eating I have stopped pretty much as did not feel that I would be playing the game taking weight loss medication and eating crap!
Hi the thoughts of what some of them are calling the oops terrifies me as well if we stick to the 15g we should be OK xx mags
you also get Orange oil with the side effects x
