I'm doing really well with xLS. So far I've lost 4.1kg on a combination of Dukan/XLS and then WW/XLS. One thing to keep in mind if you are not losing is that the tablets need fat in your diet to work. If your calories are all coming from protein and carbs, there is no work the tablets can do as...

What kind of foods are you eating Roxana? Are you following any specific diet?

Yes, no side effects at all. First 10 days I was on them, I was following the Dukan diet and suffered constipation. On WW, I don´t suffer from any side effects at all so the extra fruit and veggies are making a difference. I find that the tablets supress my appetite and give me somewhat of an...

I am sO happy! Had my first WW weigh in and lost 2kg. All this despite going to the pub one night and drinking beer AND having a chicken kebab i the week. Prior to going for the WW approach, I had been on Dukan for 1 week and had lost 2kg there as well.I might add that during both weeks, I have...

I had my weigh in today and I´ve lost 2kg this week! Woohoooo!!!!

That sounds so awesome! My course starts in January and it´s the 5-week beginners one. It will be my reward hopefully for doing well in the weight loss. :)

I tried the experiement last night and it was very interesting. It looked like something from outer space! Funny how the fat turned green really. Another thing that I have noticed in the last 3 days is that I am no longer constipated. I have changed my diet from Dukan to WW and it seems to have...

A little trick a friend of mine, who works as a prison guard in the US taught me. Take your keys and put them inside your palm, then put one key out between each finger so that they point forward, a bit like Wolferine in X-men, and clinch your fist. This will give you a fantastic self defence...

The worst thing I had happen was when I was 21.4 stone, the heaviest I had ever been. I had been made redundant and was walking to my local job centre to sign on and was walking over a zebra crossing when this man leans out of his car and shouts at me saying "Who ate all the pies"! I was utterly...

I think I was born a biker as I carry the scars of crashing my trike when I was 2, crashing my moped when I was 14 and my bike when I was 17. I´m now back to wanting a trike.... :o

I have just signed up to a beginners course in Archery in January. Have always wanted to become a fully pledged archer so am very much looking forward to it! Do you compete?

Mandlegrot, you are absolutely 100% spot on, the media does portray men who like larger ladies like freaks. It also portraits that the only way a fat guy can get a girl is if he has money - which is no less inaccurate. For all the positive that the media brings, it has a lot to answer for. I am...

It is all well to say that those people aren't worth it anyway if they cannot see beyond the exterior but the truth is that we are all shallow to some extent or another. My best friend (she also happens to be my sister) is very similar to myself but without the extra padding. We are both very...

Hi everyone! I just started WW yesterday although I officially started working on my weight loss on October 1st weighing in at 20.3 stone. Despite spending 1 week in Portugal since then, I now weigh in at 19.9 stone so I am a happy bunny! I love the idea of jumping threads between stones as it...

hannibanani, that is SO interesting! I think I need to see it myself now as well! What a great idea to see the pill in action! Well done on your loss by the way!

Prior to going to Portugal, I was on XLS for 10 days and lost 1,5kg that have stayed off. I joined Weight Watchers this morning as well so hopefully the combination of those will enable me to get rid of this extra padding I don´t want!

I have returned from Portugal and am about to kick-start my weight loss again. I ended up not taking any tablets with me so have been on a break from them. I now have a full months worth of supply which I will be munching away on along with getting to the gym and eating better than I have. I am...

My pack arrived yesterday, just in time for my trip to Portugal. I am not going to weigh myself again until I come back as I´ve had 2 days now without the pill. Started taking it again yesterday and dear lord am I windy!! Anyway, best of luck to you all and I´ll see you in 1-week!

Depends on what you had with the pasta. If there was any mayo, meat or fat then yes, I would take 1-2 but if it´s just boiled pasta on its own with no sauce then I wouldn´t bother as there isn´t enough fat in it for a tablet to make a difference.

Well, I have just finished my 10-day box and have not yet received my box that I ordered from Amazon so I went XLS hunting in my lunchtime. After 2 Boots and 1 Superdrug, I have to accept that XLS are sold out near me! Very annoying!!! On the positive side, constipation has now gone and I'm...

I take 6. I'm a woman. :) I tend to take 3 after lunch and 3 after dinner

I take 6.

Yes, it leaves your body both via urine and poo. Have you noticed an increase in wee trips?

I am mighty annoyed. I started by ordering the 10-day pack to test these pills out. I love them so I ordered 1-months dosage from Amazon (only £34!) last Monday and they still haven't been despatched. I'm running out of tablets today and going to Portugal for 7 nights on Saturday so really...

Now you have all of us curious acid_ang! lol

That is a really interesting observation jerrice. Yesterday, I felt as if someone had stuck a pump up my bumm and pumped me full of air yet I had not eaten any carbs other than a salad of lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers and onions. I had however had 0,5L of Fanta Zero! Going to eat exactly the same...

That's fantastic happychic! That was the case with me as well, was rubbish at watching what I was consuming but there was still success so this week, I'm going to extremely good to see the difference. Losing weight without effort is the ultimate success!

Jerrice, I´m not sure about the connection but I have noticed that when I eat carb based meals like noodles, rice or bread, I get VERY windy.

Hi Kimmy and welcome! I look forward to hearing about your success!

Right. 1 week results are in. Loss 1.5 kilos but 4 cm around my waist!! I have gained a bit again from the big day when I lost a lot overnight but that is normal for us females as water retention and loss ca play hell with us. I must also admit that this week has not been a good week diet...

Tomorrow will see the 1 week results but I have noticed constipation like everyone else and am starting to really fancy a big poo! it is bound to happen soon as the food must go at some point!

You are probably best off asking the people at Boots about taking laxatives with them.

Well, these tablets are fat binders so they only work on the fat in your food. If you are on a low fat diet, it is logical to assume that the difference they will make is a lot less than if you are on a "medium" fat diet where the tablets will dramatically reduce the amount of calories due to...

Day 5 and another kilo has gone, taking my total loss in these 5 days to 3,7 kilos! That's half a stone! Woohoooooo! I am taking 3 tablets after lunch and 3 after dinner. I rarely eat breakfast but if I do (I did this morning), I take 3 then as well. If these pills continue to work like this...

Day 4 for me and I now see what they mean when they say it will take 3 days to start working. I've spent more time on the loo in the last 24hrs than I have in the previous week! (weeing though, not pooing). I even woke up twice last night because I needed to go to the loo! I am noticing a huge...

Texture is more like Chardonnay rather than Pinot Grigio.... :D

Has anyone noticed that the urine turns green on these tablets? I have had the same "lack of poo" as others have reported but my urine has turned thick and greenish so I think perhaps the fat is finding its way out of the body via that channel.

Hi everyone! Great to find this site and this thread! I too have just started on the XLS pills. I use them alongside the Dukan diet and this is day 2 so there isn´t a lot to report right now. I did however take all measurements and all that jazz at the start so will be able to report on inches...
