Hi. Well done on your weight loss so far. I'm just off to docs at 9 for my second weigh in. Hopefully have lost some. Finding it a bit hard at moment as when looking for foods it's hard to find a low carb (insulin dependant) food which has low fat. Will report bk when finished at docs. Good luck with your weigh in 😁
good luck too. i hope it goes well. i know my doctor he always seems to want me to fail. sounds silly but thats how he is. i may or may not get the next 3 month batch. but i am not having a gastiric. ill just starve myself lol x
Hi, I have struggled for some time but now on a 1200 cal intake and also SW, the weight is now starting to come off, 2lb a week which I am happy with. I also use my fitness pal app which is brilliant.
It is not suitable fir everyone to count cals but is a suggestion if it helps,
Well done on the 14 pound loss, that us brilliant xx
Hi Steve
Good luck at the doctors👍
I have been on the tablets 1 week I am back at the Doctors on Wednesday so I will see. It's been going ok no funny side effects. I am really fired up on losing the weight. Just need a change. I will let u know how I get on.
i eat the same thing everyday to a degree so i know what im having daily and its deffo ok what i eat etc. i will keep in at it as i guess it will start up again. what is SW
you go girl keep that fire in your belly as thats what makes it happen in the end. the pills help but its the determination that wins. im flagging a bit but im still very much set on being the old thin and sexy me 
Slimming World. Sometimes a change to your diet is also a boost, I'm no expert and wouldn't dream of advising anyone, but can tell you of my experiences and what boosted my loss when I got stuck x
your right i sould start eating at mc donalds more lol (JOKE) x
@Turvell
Well done on your WL 100% they will give them to you as you have had a massive loss.
I always thought you were a woman probably because it is mainly women on here!
Good Luck

Hiya Steve :-)
Congratulations on your weight loss of 14lbs, thats great! I managed 10lbs after a month of being on Oristat, I am more than happy with it.
I'm just plodding along with it, trying to stay upbeat and realistic about who long it is going to take me to shift my weight.
Sometimes its too easy to get caught up in dieting and all you end up doing is focusing on the things you cant have. Its great you can run at 17 stone, I know I cant! lol I was swimming 3 times a week but got pneumonia, so its just walks with the dog at the moment.
It will feel great when you get to 16 stone something :-) that will be my next goal!

Britneyspears how very dare you lol. i am all man me lol. well hopefully less of me in the long run if you know what i mean lol. i think i must the be the only fat man on here. ironically tho no one beleives that im 17 stone they laugh and say SERIOUS? lol
yes i know its odd really no one can believe that im 17 stone and im not at all held back by it. i run like hussain bolt. well in my head i do its probably more like a teen girl runnin from a killer in a slasher movie . motivation is the key but it is hard to keep it when nothing happens for ages. sorry you got ill 
hope you feel better soon. you will and ready to kick ass again xx
There are a few other guys on here, but they dont seem to say too much for some reason?

You will be permanently perched ...,,,, on the loo 😉
Yeah!
I am not one to feel sorry for myself 
proir to gaining weight a few years ago I was extreamly active, salsa classes, swimming, high impact aerobics, karate (reached Brown Belt)
I had a mid life crises and few other crappy things happen in my personal life,which made me take my "eye off the ball". I went to sleep and woke up and found I had turned into a hippo! 
lol
I'm pretty positive about my weight situation, I know its coming off, just would prefer it to be a little quicker lol

god knows i love to talk. and why not i have a mouth and it works. well fingers in this case x
yes me too. it helps to stasy motivated. i think ive lose more size than weight. but human physiology is if we eat right we reduce in size. so i know it will happen. but like you say faster would be better. maybe next summer i can take my top off without fear of been harpooned and returned to the sea x
lol @ Harpooned! x x x
Oh darn!......dont think I can wait till next year, I'm aiming for Xmas!
Look into my eyes, not around the eyes
Everyone say after me:
*******WE MUST STAY FOCUSED!****
*******WE MUST STAY FOCUSED!****
*******WE MUST STAY FOCUSED!****

Gosh! I had better do some work, otherwise I will have to sack myself!
Onwards and upwards with the aid of my little blue buddies x X x
