Hi...just wondering if you would like to buddy up. I too am starting with Xenical. Send a message if you do, good luck :)

Well my third weigh in with the tabs and as last week no weight loss. I've been watching what I eat and increased my water intake. I won't be reordering. Good luck to those just started or about to start.

It's the same for me. First week fine, now third week in and nothing. I'm thinking of going on Xenical a little more expensive but I can't justify paying out for something hoping it will work again sometime soon :(

Good morning everyone, I wonder if anyone can tell me how successful they think Xenical is? Are you losing regularly every week? How do you plan for special occasions? Sorry for all the questions, my GP has agreed to me starting them. Any advice in advance would be greatly received :)

Hi Nicola, If you read my previous posts, I stuck to my normal diet to see what effect the tabs would have. That week I had a take away, pizza and some other bits and pieces. I lost 1.5lbs but know it could have been more. This week however I'm following weight watchers points as the effect...

Day 10 for me and everything as before. Although went out for an Italian last night and forgot my tabs so goodness what that might do. I'm not ordering anymore as yet, waiting to see what the next few weeks bring. Will go back on Proactol if I'm not happy. Still constipated at times, and often...

Weekly weigh....1.5 lbs. no inch loss. However I have not changed my diet at all. This week I have had chocolate, take away, wine, tiger bread etc etc. I did this purposely as if I reduced calories I wouldn't know which was working. This week I aim to reduce my intake and see if that increases...

I'm a day behind so weigh in on Tuesday for me. I too feel "bunged up" so will drink extra fluids today and might take a laxative tonight. I have to say Proactol didn't do that. Hmmm I guess for me it's all in the weigh in now :)

Day 4 for me today and I feel like they are kicking in now. I too am flexible with the amount of tablets I take. I've lost 3 lbs this morning. Had a fatty meal last night and paid for it this morning on the loo. At least I know they are working. My appetite is definitely less which is fab. Just...

Hi everyone, Day 2 for me too and I have noticed that I'm not hungry in between meals since starting with the tablets. So far so good on the toilet front. As I drive a lot for work I'm having to drink lots in the evening. Not great for sleeping but needs must I suppose. I too have the 180 pack...

Kittywhite do you think your diet is already very low in fat. Just wondering if that's why you are bunged up. Just a thought :)

My tabs have arrived so will be starting tomorrow. Will post every day until my weekly weigh in. Hope everyone is ok. Take care ?

I agree that does seem strange. With Proactol I went 2-3 times day and you could- sorry to be graphic here- see the fat that hadn't been absorbed. Keep at it, see what the weekly weigh in says. Will of course keep posting here so we can compare when I get my tabs x

I too have bought from Amazon, if they work then there are further discounts for ordering automatically. I'm really looking forward to getting started. If they work as well as Proactol we will lose weight ? On that plan I used a larger amount of tablets for my dinner, as breakfast and lunch...

Hi....I too am going to try these tablets. They have been dispatched today so hopefully they will arrive by the beginning of next week. It would be great to share the highs and lows. Might be worth mentioning that I tried Proactol last year and they were extremely effective but they didn't...

Hi and welcome. The forums are a great source of support. Unfortunately it's hard to say how long you will feel hungry, it's such an individual thing. But once you hit ketosis you will feel better. I think it's important to acknowledge that there will be days when you could eat anything even...

Well.....just jumped on the scales and I've lost 6lbs. I'm pleased but kind of hoping for a few more lbs. Anyway if you have read my previous posts I have had a really tough week. I didn't get the surge of energy and I'm not sure I am in ketosis properly even now. BUT I've stuck with it with...

Good luck hun, you will be just fine. Try and take it easy for the first couple of days and drink water when you can. Let us know how you get on. Everyone is great here, such a support. So if it's getting too much just shout ?

But I'm wide awake full of energy!!! And the most dreadful taste in my mouth ever. Far worse than a few days ago. Could this be the ketosis fairy??? Oh please let it be so ?

Honk

Yes that would be good. My weigh day is Thursday x

Hi....I'm doing ok. Succumbed to a bit of chicken this afternoon. Just hope I haven't done too much damage. It's purely protein so maybe ok? I'm day 5 and still ravenous!!! How are you?

I'm really struggling, day 5 and am still starving. I've been 100% no cheating at all. I've lost 5 lbs though when I weighed today. Is ketosis always hit within the week? I hope so :)

Just wondering if this is normal? Or maybe just me :) I've been 100% and had a slight surge of energy yesterday but it didn't last x

Honk for day 4...really struggling tonight though :(

I'm doing just fine. Even cooked dinner for my family and resisted. Being on weigh day :)

I want to stick with it for 3-4 months. Hoping to lose 4 stone then will try and lose the last stone with exercise and WW or SW. Bed sounds a fab idea I've been going an hour early since I started :)

I too am on day 4 and its been tough cooking but not eating. I'm feeling sorry for myself I guess. Here's to tomorrow :)

Yes we will.....I have never been so hungry as I am tonight. I've got half a bar left and a coke zero with my name on :)

And now I'm cooking a Sunday roast. It seems like torture but I need to get some control around food so am hoping it's good preparation for the future. It's killing me though :)

Count me in...weigh in on Thursday :)

Well today is day 4. Not sure whether I am hungry or not! Trying to keep busy all the same :)

Well it's day 4 and as my husband is I'll I made him bacon and eggs (how brave is that?) I have to say it made me soooo hungry. But sticking to it regardless. Keep thinking about the summer and hiding my weight under tent like clothes. Not doing that again!!!!!!

Awww well get better soon. You need to be totally better before you start. What's a week in the great scheme of things. We will still be here waiting for you x

Wow that's brilliant hun, great motivation for next week. Keep up the good work x

I've got the same amount to lose. If we stick at it then that's achievable by June. Maybe earlier with exercise. Let's motivate each other :)

Hi Billie, I was day 3 yesterday too. Feel as though a small corner has been turned (very small but small nonetheless) Here's to day 4 and beyond. Not cheating partly because I can't go through these days again :)

From posts here around a stone a month x

Hi Bella, you can do it. I'm on day 4 today and it's getting easier all the time!! Good luck!! x

Hi hun, yes it's been fine and it's another one gone. Here's to day 4!!!! Hope you are ok x

Honk for Days 1,2,3 :)

Hi... I'm on day 3 and while there have been moments of real temptation I've stuck to it 100%. The porridge is delicious...I just put 150ml in instead of 200 and 2 mins in the microwave. If you like ready brek you will love it!!!

Keep going hun, it can only get better. I was fine but now hitting a bit of a wall again. It is coming in waves at the moment. I've saved half a bar for later as I use to munch my way through Saturday night. Take care x

Also I had a quick sneak on the scales and I've lost 3.5 lbs already!!! That's motivated me no end x

Hi Carrie, I'm on day 3, but would be great to buddy up!!! I hope today is going well x

Morning Lou, yes here's to a good day. I'm day 3 and I hopped on the scales and I've lost 3.5 lbs!!! Really excited and more convinced than ever that I can do this. Let's keep focused x

Me too...it's the best place for me!!! Headache, dizzy etc heres to day 3 ?

Hi everyone I'm on day 2 and doing ok if I could just stomach the shakes and soups. Has anyone got any ideas? I've tried the hot chocolate and didn't like it. Has anyone tried freezing like mousse or baking them?

Hi hun....I too feel like giving up. But you know if we do where does that leave us? And I can't go through this again, so we have to keep going. I'm ok with the porridge, buy not the soups. They make me gag. So tonight I'm having Choc with hot water, a spoon of coffee and a sweetener. Every day...

Day 1 behind me....really tough in the evening, my danger time!!! so instead I brushed my teeth, had a bath, helped my daughter revise, brushed my teeth again an had a can of coke zero. Strange taste in my mouth and starving......here's to day 2!

Well it's day 2.....I have a feeling this is going to be really tough! But determined to get through anyway I can. Hope you all have a great day. By Sunday we should be feeling so much better ?

I just keep thinking everyone says it gets better.....decreased appetite and increased energy ( can't wait for both) I'm happy to text, email, Facebook etc. what do you prefer?

I can't say I've noticed a salty taste. What have you had? I've got a strange taste in my mouth!!!

That's great...writing it down so I can text!!! Will be great I'm struggling at the moment...my danger time!!!

Well thought I would come and tell you about my day so far! Been ok so far...porridge for breakfast yumm, bar for lunch which was ok if a little dry and just had a veg soup which I really struggled with. Anyone tried anything else so far? How is everyone doing? x

I can't send private messages yet! Would be great to keep in touch

Well it's day one...porridge yummy this morning. Bar which was a bit dry for lunch and I'm toying with soup for dinner. How's everyone else doing?

I had porridge this morning. I put 150mls of water in and microwaved for 2 mins. Yes very yummy! They looked and tasted like lumpy ready brek. Have a great day ?

Hi Gem, I'm Jacqui. Pleased to meet you. I'm starting on Exante tomorrow. Very nervous but that's the pressure I'm putting on myself I think. Would be great to keep in touch over the coming weeks. Good luck!!!

That would be great. Hope you do ok tomorrow. Will let you know how I go. Let's keep focused. This is our year!!!!

Hiya....well I'm nervous about tomorrow. Hope you are ok!!! I don't really want my friends to know either, just Facebook chat easier than here I think. Takes me ages to find the message I started!!! Let me know how you go tomorrow. I will do the same. I'm having porridge, bar, soup nothing like...

Hi...I am starting tomorrow!!! Good luck

I start tomorrow hun, let's hope we can be successful and lose loads!!!

I will, it's great knowing there is support here when you need it. Hope tomorrow is even better for you again. Let me know because it will be great to know when things turn around. So many people say when you hit ketosis you get a surge of energy and are not hungry anymore ?

Thank you so much....I am going to report back tomorrow with an update!!!

Well it's Weds evening and I've just got home to find a mystery box on my doorstep. No mystery really.....my diet packs....gulp! Well this is it. No turning back now. I just hope I find a couple I like and manage to get to the stage where ketosis kicks in. Have done lots of diets before. So why...

That would be great Zoe. I'm also on Facebook if that's easier for you. Let me know what works best. Best of luck for today!!! The first day of the new you!!!

Hi I'm starting with the Exante diet on Thursday. Hoping to find a diet buddy and lots of motivation along the way. Anyone else starting? ?
