yes i think a weigh in once a week is enough, as your weight can fluctuate throughout the day depending on different things ie womens probs etc, so give yourself a break and bet you will have done ok, at the end of the day you dont want to be come obsessed its not about that

another thing if your already eating healthily do you really need a little blue pill to help, must admit i have lost some weight on these pills, and am due for a weigh in on 10 jan

i agree it just seems to me that a lot of people who have suceeded with xenical dont do well when they come of it and therefore end up on it again, and your right its not a magic cure , so is there any advice you can give to someone who has come of xenical so that they can keep the weight of

hi i dont feel deprived myself we just have to be careful , its hard to get a balance so that you dont end up saying i cant eat that or cant go out for a bite to eat, as lexie says thats when it can become dangerous, personally i would like to kick start my diet using xenical and then maybe come...
