    What the hell is going on?

    Lins It was really cool to read that thread as you got happier and cheerier as it went along. Just stick with it, keep records and make sure youre eating enough. If it's any consolation, I've ground to a weightloss halt too but I'm putting it down to having to keep still while i revise. Good...

    Boo! - Soooo confused :((

    That's a strange one isn't it. Don't let it get you down though Lise. The hym scales HAVE to be the more acurate so if I were you I'd recalibrate your home scales to match the gym ones (if thats possible on digital scales, I don't know) and upping the calories and fat might just do the trick...

    Dry skin anyone?

    Hi guys I just wondered if, like me, any of you have experienced dry skin since taking Xenical. My hands look like paper and my lips and cracked and sore....just wondered if it's anything to do with less fats in my body. Lip balm companies are making a fortune out of me at the moment :confused:

    Feeling the Fear and Doing it anyway!!

    I've had a look, and I can't find any affordable dance classes anywhere near me, and I don't drive so I've had a rethink. I've just read Baby Love's thread and have remembered how much I enjoyed aqua aerobics when I did it when I lived in London. It really was funny, I laughed alot. So I think...

    Have you gone off food since taking xenical?

    completely - eating is becoming a bit of a chore now - not the finding low fat stuff, cos i find that easy-ish, but just having an appetite. So yes!

    Lose a boyfriend, lose 4 lbs

    Thanks folks No, I'm not going to press charges. He has made threats to me and my friends if I do, and I haven't the strength to do it. He keeps texting me now saying how devastated he is that we have split up! He is really, really unstable, so I don't want to do anything. It's enough for me...

    Lose a boyfriend, lose 4 lbs

    2 day ago I went to view the cctv video of whoever it was who has been stealing money from my bank accounts. I thought I'd see some young lad using a clone of my cards. What I actually saw was the man I was living with, and he'd been doing it for months. I also discovered that all the time we...

    Being tipsy and vanishing willpower

    I went out last night and thought that after a few drinks I'd be fine and my willpower would be intact because of the Xenical Fear Factor (I like testing theories) It wasn't. My boyfriend bought a pizza and I ate 3 slices of it. I'm thoroughly ashamed of myself but require no punishment - the...

    Anti-depressants and weight gain

    when you say nowhere near 1000 calories, do you mean I'm not having enough, or too much? I don't have a calorie counter, but I bet I can access one online somewhere. Or do you recommend buying a book or something? I'm not great with fruit, but I have that tablespoon of sultanans like I said...

    New to Xenical

    Hi Remy I've been on Xenical 3 weeks now, and feel great, there doesn't appear to be any toilet troubles, I go in the morning and that's it. Side effects have only occurred when I tested the theory and ate a higher fat meal. My own fault and I learned from the mistake. Enjoy your journey
