What do GPs expect

Hope someone can help...when I go for my first weigh in, what loss will the doctor be looking for.  I have no idea what is expected of me.  Thanks

5 percent ov ya body weight

Hiya. I lost 1stone 5lb in my 1st month and gp was over the moon!!! Not sure what's expected? I know it's 5% of body weight within 1st 3 months smile good luck. 

That's some weight loss, fantastic stuff.  How did you do it?

I was told if i lost 5 percent at each 4 weekly weigh in i would get the tablets each time xxxx

Hi, I followed rosemary conely which is less than 5% fat and 1400 calories a day. Lost roughly a stone a month smile I was mega strict and worked out everyday. Xx

Thank you

Well done...how much weight have you lost in total.  Thanks

Thanks for your help

I lost nearly 4 stone in 4 months 😃

When I went to the GP she had a look in the BNF and it stated that you had to loose 5% in the first 12 weeks of being on the big blue tablets. I think some GP's request a faster weight loss but I think slowly and surely to keep the weight off. Good luck.

Thanks for the encouragement, appreciate it
