I joined SW last Tuesday and tonight will be my first weigh in.
Not expecting to loose because it was my 30th Birthday on Thursday and I have been out for 2 meals and been away all weekend with family, but I have found that I have been more consious in my choices even though I was not sticking...
I rang my nearest chemist this morning and they had teva in stock. My prescription is for 2 boxes but the chemist would only give me the 1 box due to the shortage.
So glad to have them back! I have been trying to get my prescription since it was issued at the start of april. Not had any tablets...
I asked in Sainsburys Pharmacy yesterday and the lady told me there not expecting any until June so i the mean time i should buy Alli and double up on the dosage! They didnt have any instock either tho.

Hello Peeps,
Started taking Xenical agin on Friday last week so shouldnt really weigh until then however this morning i felt the urge. We dont have any scales at home, which is a good thing because I would become a serial weigher! so i use the ones in Boots.
Been on this morning and I have...
I am Anna, 27 years old and from Leeds. I have been married for nearly 6 years to Simon and we are desperate to start a family.
3 years ago we did 2 IVF cycles that were both unsuccesful, the hospital suggested that I tried to loose weight and get my BMI down before trying again.
I suffer with...
Right so, I am back and this time I am determined to stick to it.
I had a fab time in Australia and a fab x-mas and new year. Just booked our next holiday for September and i am not going at this weight!!
Started Xenical on Friday 26th March weighing in at 16st 7lbs.
The last 4 days have...
So been back to the docs this morning and got my prescription of the little blue pills. I told her that I wanted to come back on 4 weeks to be weighed again rather than her just give me a 3 month repeat prescription and she was heppy with this.
Popped into boots to pick them up and grabbed my...
Hello All,
Not been on here in ages.
Stoped taking the tablets when they run out in November and just never got round to going back to the doctors. Went to OZ for a few weeks then it was crimbo and well now its the end of March and about time I started again.
Just booked my next holiday in...
I know, It really drags on. I lost a fair bit of weight when I was on MET but the side effects are worse than this. Not in the orangy oily scense but headaches and mood swings!
I would go back on them tho.
Feb is not that far away now.x
till I go on my holidays, so thats just over 7 weeks.
I havent been weighed for weeks and weeks but dont actually feel and different. Really need to get my finger out and get some weight off. 1st in 7 weeks would do me. Dont fancy the long haul flight again, cramped up with no space!!
Hello and welcome,
Just a quick question, Are you still on the Metformin ?
Only reason I ask is, i too have PCOS and when I was getting ready for IVF I was on MET, as it can help achive pregnancy by getting the ovaries going, anyhoo, when I was prescribed Xenical, to loose weight before IVF...
I feel like death today! Went to an 18th birthday party last night in my next door neighbours garden. Started drinking at 4 and finally came home at 3.30am today. I am sooo tired.
Note to self . . Do not drink Junes home brew rose wine again!!! it is rocket fuel...
I didnt take any tablets...
Omg I feel silly writing this, I am not really sure what to say.
Lets start from the begining.
I am Anna, 26 years old and from Leeds. I have been married for 5 years to Simon and we are desperate to start a family.
2 years ago we did 2 IVF cycles that were both unsuccesful, the hospital...
Yeah I might do that. I only get 1 months tablets at a time but she just put them on repeat prescription so I can just go pick it up when I need to.
I had been weigning myself in Boots but havent done that for weeks. I think I have just over a weeks tabs left so might go get weighed with the...
I was just wondering how long into Xenical was your 1st Doctors weighin ?
It seams a lot of you get dr's weighin regularly.
My Dr gave me the prescription and said I didnt have to see her again for 3 months..
Does this sound too long a gap ?
I personally would put my sisters birthday over weightloss for 1 night. Realisitacally, how much damage do you think you can do in 1 night!
We all have different reasons for wanting to loose weight and time scales in which to loose it in but I think you still need to be able to go out and let...
Congrats on the 25th Anniversary, I celebrated my 5th last night and endulged in a Gordon Ramsey Fillet Steak with Mushroom Gratain (with full fat dbl cream) followed by Green & Blacks White chocolate and vanilla ice cream. It was all yummy. God only knows the damage i will do on my 25th. x
I will be having what ever is in the garden grown, so probs a concoction of Peas, green beans, corgette and carrot with a pack of prawns.
I hate cooking with a passion but hubby is working away this week so I am having to fend for myself! This is generally when the diet goes outta the window!
They usually have this type of thing at the ww and Sw meetings. Seeing it and feeling the weight of it really makes you feel better about 'only loosing 1lb'.
Eating chillis can leave you looking hot | The Sun |Woman|Health|Health
The above is a link to an article in todays Sun newspaper all about dieting.
They claim adding 1/4 teaspoon of chilli powder to main meals can increase weightloss by 5lbs a month..
Can be worth a go i suppose!
Morning all,

Me and my slimming world partner Michelle have decided to go it alone. We have been and bought some scales and are going to weigh each other once a week instead.
This came about because last sw weighin my hubby came with us cos we were going straight out afterwards. After paying my money and...
Well, it was weighing night at slimming world and i lost 1lb. Only on day 2 of the tablets so I am classing last nights weighin of 16st 8lbs as my xenical starting weight.
So far the tablets have been good, apart from the constipated feeling but i am sure that will pass when they get fully...
Isnt it amazing how people's sizes are so different yet are the same height. I too am 5ft 8 and now weigh 16st 9 but in a size 18 clothing. The lowest weight i ever got to was 11st 4lb and a size 10 yet i was still classed as over weight.
Come home from work and hubby and I have been out on the bikes for a good hour. Not been on them for a week or so but were going to try and get out as much as possible.
Pee'd it down tho as we were half way home and its all up hill to our house so i had to get off and push!! haha.. It only cos...
I have been trying to put pictures on here but it wont let me. Do you have to have had so many posts before it unlocks it? Going to get my husband to take before pictures pf me so i can see the weight coming off.
Well, I started the tablets this morning and all seams well so far.
I have my Slimming World weighin tomorrow so i will count tomorrow as my starting weight on Xenical. I am hoping i have lost something tomorrow anyway as i have been good all week in order to get the tablets off the doctor...

Yiiipppppeee
I went to the doctors because i hadnt been having regular periods. I was and still do go 4-5 months between them. Also because we wanted to start thinking about having a family the doctor sent me for all the tests doing which confirmed PCOS.
I too have pcos and when we were going through ivf i was on Met. It gave me a constant headache and sicky feeling. I didnt loose any weight taking it either. That was 2 years ago now and when i went back to the docs to see about a 3rd and final ivf attempt i knew the additional weight would...
