Thanks girls! I am going to spend some time on here in the next few days like yu suggested Circes and.... maybe next week!

Sorry, I meant SW! Didnt join tonight, lost my nerve :(

I have'nt done SS for years and was just wondering what benefits I will gewt if I join? I have the latest books (a friend gave me them) but dont know whether to go it alone? For example, I know I would get a password to log in to the SS site, but is that worth it? One thing I remeber...

Your'e so right Ali, Ive set my ticker for small goals of 2st at a time. You look amazing!!

Hi all, Just starting back on xenical after a long fat-filled break. Feeling totally fed up today:cry: Hope I can stick to it, Ive got a wedding (not mine!) and a big holiday nxt year so really want to be slimmer by then! x x

Well done both of you!

That is how I feel some days too, Its got to be something to do with the tabs making us feel bloated. Have a good weekend!

Hi Lindsey and welcome! Ive been on xenical for 3 weeks now and only had a minimal amount of orange oil, I questioned this with my MAP nurse and she said the fat comes out in your regular bowel motion, so it is there.....somewhere! You may want to join us on the "starting xenical and confused"...

Hi tryingtogetslim & rubensque :bliss: Really glad you found us! It really helps to have others on here who know how you feel! I try to post everyday with a little update. Would love to hear how you both get on. Good luck and once again WELCOME! x

Hi Em100, welcome. Ive been on xenical for 3 weeks now and Ive not had any side effects, just a slight amount of orange oil but certainly not enough to be embarrassing! Im finding it a good deterrent actually! Keep posting with your progress and good luck!

Flippin heck.....so are you....80lbs!!!!!!!!!! Bloody brilliant!!!

Hi All, Another good week for me I lost 2lbs! I find Im eating smaller meals too KM. Congrats on your anniversary, the meal sounds lovely, I think your best not to take the tablet and then carry on as normal the next day. Ive got a busy weekend coming up somewhere it will involve a Krispy Kreme...

I asked the nurse about eating out and takeaways last night actually and she said go for white meat dishes, not a fried rice dish. You are so good not weighing yourself each week, I couldnt wait! But the beauty of monthly is hopefully it will be a hefty loss!!!! Good luck this weekend and let me...

Im getting on ok, but I am missing stuff. Crisps, chocolate really. I had a phone call from one of the xenical nurse's last night and she was really helpful and told me I should be eating more! When I told her I have 2 shredded wheat for b/fast she said there's no reason why I shouldnt have lean...

I agree KayMarie, dont know how we would go about it though...do you? How are you getting on...and you Julie?

Well Mrs DD that just goes to show you cant have your cake and eat it! They do say it is not a miracle tablet, we have to put the work in too. Julie, about the MAP pack, you need to call them to register. You'll need your box of xenical tablets to hand, as they ask you the serial number...

Well done BB and good luck KayMarie!! BB is the group you have set up online?

Hi Julie, Welcome! This is my second week on the tabs now, and I lost 4lb last week! Ive found it fairly easy tbh, have you rang the MAP helpline? I put the detailsmin another xenical thread further down the page on this forum. Today is the first day Ive had the dreaded orange oil, but it wasnt...

Hi Emma, Well corned beef is quite fattening, but Im trying to try different things to see what will affect me and what may not as Ive heard it's different with everyone. snack a jacks are low in fat so Im trying them, got to be better than a chocolate biscuit! I had fish fingers for tea with...

Hi Emma, How are you doing? Im still doing ok though Im craving chocolate. Just having a caramel snack-a-jack! I had a corned beef sandwich for lunch and Im waiting for the **** to hit the fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Emma, Im doing ok. No bad side effects.......yet! MAP is the helpline run by Roche, the makers of xenical, it's manned by really helpful nurses. They send you really good information and give you a call now and again to see how you're doing. You need to call them to register. You'll need...

That is fat, ignore the sat fat, have you sent for your MAP pack?

Hi Emmie Lou Im starting them tomorrow, was meant to be today but I had to go shopping for all my low fat stuff. PLease keep posting as I would love to see how you are doing and I will too!

Hi Ali, Thanks for replying, you are such an inspiration, you have done amazingly! Can you answer some more questions for me? I cant seem to find any other forums that cover "real people" on xenical. Ok..If I eat something "bad" how long will it take to affect me? What do you do if you are...

Hi, Thanks for the replies, Emmie Lou when are you starting yours? Im going to start Monday as I have a busy weekend coming up and dont want to be worrying!

Thanks Sandy, Im dreading this but I have to do something as Ive been diagnosed with sleep apnoea and Im desparate to make this work.

Hi all, Back to MiniMins after a long break, Ive been prescribed xenical by my GP today and Im scared and confused. I feel I dont know enough or understand about it. I know I have to follow a low fat diet, so does that mean I eat similar to the way I eat now but chose all low fat versions? Is it...

Right! Thanks. Good luck Busy!
