Bellys to Bumps

[Lisa84]

I had them ages ago i think they are called xenical or something. Aparently they can have nasty side effects as they stop fat bein absorbed so when u go to the toilet it can be a bit runny and in extreme cases it can cause u to leak fat while sleeping. Luckily i didnt have any side effects other than when i needed the toilet i NEEDED it!! There was no waitin around lol

They werent really effective with me but are different with everyone xx

Thank you ladies, I appreciate all your comments. This thread is going really well!

I've had WW Hearty Veg soup and 4 wholegrain ryvitas, (even if they did look like the lining of a budgie cage covered in Trill! lol mmm) and 1/2 tin of peaches for afters! Yum!

H xx

Budgie cage!! That's how I think of them too. The things we eat to lose weight

I had my weigh today and i've lost 5 pounds this week I'm so sceptical that i've asked husband to pick up a new pair of scales on the way home

hi ladies love the sound of all that fruit just thinking what to have for dinner ,

Tarkwa i am on zenical have beem for last 3 weeks side affects are bad, in fact just took dogs out for walk in woods and got stuck all of a suden needed loo just made it home, i think i have only lost 5 pounds so if you are doing well on your own i would not bother, if you dont eat any fat you will be fine, im not sure if it is the met or the zenical which is making me bad, but ill keep going, i cant decide which diet to do you seem to all be doing so well xx

Hey pinkee, my opinion is that you should enjoy what you eat, and if you do over-indulge, just don't do it again too soon! Or work out for an extra 30 mins (easier said than done I know!). FX for you.

Well done 4 magpies - 4lbs (or even 2lbs) is great and you should be proud of yourself! Consistent 'low' amounts is the best way - drastic weight losses (as a result of diets like cabbage soup - yuk!) are not healthy ways of losing weight. I'm thinking of my weight loss journey as more of a change of lifestyle and eating habits. I'm still eating yummy food (just made a lasagne), just less of it and snacking far less. Anyway, we'll see how it goes next week when I publish my weight .

[Traskey]

4Magpies you made me chuckle!

Well, there is a discrepancy between the two sets of scales that i weigh on, the old and the new. I prefer the lighter one, (who wouldn't) but as long as I consistantly use the same one it won't matter. As Tarkwa said, it's the changes to my eating habits that are the most important.

 

[Lisa84]

2lbs is a good weight loss. I know it would be nice but you cant be expected to pull big numbers everyweek. Its 2lbs in the right direction and like Tarkwa said it is healthier and will stay off longer xxx

 

[4magpies]

2lb a week for 7 weeks and im at target. thats my focus.

Ivf ready in 2 months. Its gonna take them longer to faff around testing 1st I recon.

4magpies it's a loss and you've done well! Whether it's half a pound, 2lb or 6 lb it's off! That's the main thing. I drank loads of fluids this week which I definitely think helped.

I was once on Orlistat and had one of the side effects. I think I was just walking round the supermarket and got strange wet slippery feeling round the back there. So I whizzed round the supermarket and got home as quick as I could to check it out. On inspection it was bright orange oil that had come out of me! I was mortified and stopped taking them after that. I think they're more psychological than anything. They tell you not to eat fat because of the side effects, but aren't they supposed to make sure your body doesn't absorb the fat? Surely if you're not eating fat in the first place there won't be anything for your body to absorb! Sorry for the rant, but Phew glad I got that out! Lol xx
