Thanks Rach. You are doing great too. It's a good feeling when you start seeing the results in inches and clothes start to get too big.

Well it has been three weeks now since I started xenical and I have lost another 4 lbs today. This brings my total weight loss to 13 lbs. I am really happy. I was a bit down last week as I didn't have a great loss and the scales didn't seem to be moving. I am starting to notice a loss in...

Thanks Booboo. My leg hasn't been too bad the last couple of days so I might have another go at 30 day shred this weekend. Oh and if I haven't posted somewhere else, well done on your weight loss this week. I still get a bit lost on the forum. Have a great weekend.

Hello Charlotte and welcome to the forum. Everyone is really helpful on here. Well done on your first week's weight loss.

Thanks Rach. Doctor told to exercise but only do what I felt comfortable with. I was ok with most of the floor exercises and the weights but it was the jumps that gave me pain. Felt in agony last night but not too bad today. However, I have been sat down most of the day. How are you getting on?

I haven't really been on here over the last few days as I haven't been well. Went to the docs today and she confirmed a 9 lb weight loss in just over 2 weeks. According to my scales I had lost 9 lbs at the weekend but I weighed first thing undressed. She said I was doing well and I had made...

Thank you. I am starting to feel better than I did earlier today. I work in a school so I probably have picked something up. I have been forgetting to take my multivitamins at bedtime so I am wondering if that might be a contributing factor. I haven't really eaten much today and the shivers...

Last night I was really shivery in bed. Woke this morning and didn't feel too bed so went swimming. Around lunchtime I started to feel light headed and had to lie down. I started feeling shivery again and my whole body has been aching most of the day. I had a few stomach pains a little...

Thanks Booboo. Well done on your weight loss this week too.

Thank you Rach. How are you? I am pleased with the loss because when I weighed earlier in the week I had gained a few lbs. Going back to docs on wed to get weighed. Thank you Charlotte. I am really enjoying it and haven't really had any bad side effects. I don't feel hungry and can't...

I haven't been on here for a few days so just catching up with some of the threads. I had my second weekly weigh in today and I have lost 9lbs in total. It was totm this week so I only lost 2lbs but at least it's a loss which I am pleased with. Good luck to everyone this week and hope you all...

Thanks booboo. You always have good advice.

Thanks. I weigh first thing in the morning and go off that reading. But I still seemed to have gained since Saturday. Maybe I am not drinking enough water, but I still seem to be going to the bathroom alot especially in the night. I try to eat around 1600 calories and watch fat content...

I want to get below 13 st. I started 11 days ago on xenical and weighed in after a week at 13st 5lbs. I lost 7 lbs. However this morning I weighed in at 13st 7lbs. I am thinking it could be totm, but feeling a little disappointed as I seemed to do really well last week. I am wondering if I...

I am looking forward to doing it too. I ordered mine from amazon and got an email earlier to say it had been sent out. Little worried because I have read it is quite intense but will just do what I can to begin with. Can anyone recommend any other good fitness dvds?

Thanks Booboo.

I haven't heard about this either. I was only given my first month of xenical by my doctor two weeks ago.

Booboo what are magnetic plasters?

Thanks Rach and Booboo. I will give it a go when it arrives. From what I read about it it sounds like there is alot of jumping around. My front room is a decent size, but how much room do you need? Booboo I have no pain when laid down, it seems to be when I have been standing or moving around...

My totm is coming up this week too. I weighed this morning and am a couple of pounds up from yesterday morning. I ate ok yesterday so I am wondering if this gain is due to totm. I didn't think about it until I read your posts. I told myself last night I have to stop jumping on the scales but...

Thanks. I am getting to grips with the diet, but need to think about more exercise. I swim a couple of times a week and have done a couple of exercise dvd workouts. Don't really have an awful lot of time in the evenings so looking for something to fit in with my lifestyle.

I just ordered 30 day shred online. On reading the reviews it says it is an intense workout even at level 1. I get pain in the top of my leg and hip from time to time, do you think it will make that worse?

Well done on your weight loss. I hope I do as well as you on xenical. What's 30 day shred like? Are you supposed to do it every day?

Well done with your weight loss. This is my first week and I lost 7lbs. I weighed this morning. However just weighed again a little while ago and I seem to have gained 4lbs from this morning:( I know your weight can fluctuate throughout the day and it wasn't long since I had eaten. I think...

Thanks. I remember I did set it to 2lb a week but not sure I could manage on 1200 calories at the moment, it doesn't sound alot. I think I am eating around 1500 to be honest so will probably stick to this for the time being. As long as the weight keeps coming off I am not really too bothered...

Thanks. I guess I will just take it a month at a time and see how it goes.

I put my details into my fitness pal and it said my allowance was 1200 calories which I think is way to low for me. I was working on 1800 for my weight which is what it recommends in the alli diet plan book. It is really confusing and think it must be an error.

I have never really slept through and it's usual for me to get up a couple of times in the night but this last week it's been alot more. I don't feel tired though. How long are you allowed to take xenical for? The doctor didn't really tell me much. She just warned of the side effects and...

I have to say since starting this diet a week ago I feel I have alot more energy and it has given me more confidence. When I went to see my doctor because my BP was high and I was having problems with my back, I was feeling pretty low. My eldest son started at Uni in October and it has been...

Thank you. Cleaning day today so hopefully I can burn off some calories. Going to try the coq au vin from the alli diet plan book today.

Thanks for the encouragement. I have weighed this morning and have lost 7lbs this week. I am really pleased. Had to weigh myself several times to make sure it was 7lbs as I didn't expect to lose that much. It has certainly got me motivated and I haven't done an awful lot of exercise this...

Thank you. I have treated myself to a couple of glasses of wine tonight, hope it doesn't ruin what I have done so far. I haven't had all my calorie allowance so figured it might be ok as it's Friday. Everyone seems to be doing so well with xenical. I think the worry of having the side...

Thank you I will give it a try.

Thank you. I just hope I don't get bored of it too quickly, although I am loving the food I am eating. I can't believe what junk I was eating before. How do you get your weight loss ticker on your signature?

Hi, Tomorrow I will have completed my first week on xenical. I have tried various diets over the years and successfully lost weight only to put it back on again. My doctor suggested xenical and I have to say I am loving the diet. I am following a low fat plan and bought the alli diet plan book...

Hi, I have just started on xenical too. I am finding it ok with no side effects yet. I bought the alli diet plan book which has lots of information and meal ideas. Good luck with your weight loss.
