I need a plan !!

Ok so a week and a half on orlistat!! Fruit an veg is costing me soooooo much money i spent near enough 40 pound on fuit and veg last week :O and i have none left... I need some sort of plan to follow i cant go on like this!!! 5 portions of fruit and veg a day is burning really big holes in my purse!!! Im thinking about the 5:2 diet but what i need to remember is i have a 10 month old son and a partner who both love their food :( xx
 
I did Orlistat for a while I have to say I thought it was a very unpleasant :( sorry but like everything on here if it works or you it works :) welcome to the forum.
 
Hi Lozzie, Welcome to the forum... or is that a bit late?! .. :confused:

I can imagine that it must be very difficult fitting in a new menu with a baby and partner to look after as well but I must say that I found what I didn't buy ..and eat..re choc, cakes and biscuits and the like more or less compensated for the cost of the fruit etc.
I try to pick up those things that are on the bargain bays.. bananas can be just as nutritous if they are being sold off at reduced prices.

Hope you find a way to keep things going..it will be so worth it in the end.
 
Haha thanks for the warm welcome :) i no what your saying about the cost of sweets and things can contribute but... As my partner still likes his sweets and treats its like paying double :( and hes not overweight at all he can eat a whole lot more than me and still have an amasing body then you get me.. One of the people that eat a square of chocci and pile on a pound from it:( lifes so not fair at times! Im swapping and going to my green grocers instead of supermarket stores, aswell as being fresh its also alot cheaper plus he doea budget bags so il get a whole load of fruit and veg for alot less than buying it all at normal retail price! I so hope it all pays of! My plan is to start doing a exercise routine that ive found on youtube, as of monday im going to atleast try it 3 times a day at 10 minutes a time:) xx
 
Yep even looking at it seems to pit on the pounds! I had to sit tgere and watch my son eat a thortons chocolate bunny that his dad had brought him, im sure i was dribbleing :( and i dont want to do any sw or ww as they can be expensive like the 5 pound a week fee or what ever it is, im struggling to buy weeks worth of fruit and veg atm so my diet budget is really tight thats why ive asked for orlistat of the gp theres no way i could afford 60 poind for a monthes worth of alli lol xx
