Wow kenshin, 1 and a 1/2 stone in 3 weeks is amazing! I started yesterday, I hope I have a good loss like that! :) well done x

Hi everyone I have had 1 day on Cambridge yesterday and going to do it today (finishing off some I had left) just ordered my Exante shakes to come tomorrow. New journey! I get married next August and have about 5 stone to shift!! I know it's gonna be a long hard journey but I think I just...

I am starting tomorrow too :) xx

Well done everyone. I lost 3 1/2 lb and won slimmer of the week :) xx

Thank you. Yeah iv been reading up and I know its mainly will power/ discipline. I know they aren't a miracle pill, I have been doing slimming world for 6 months now and have lost 2stone 5lb on my own so far and I have no intensions of changing it just because of taking the pills, I just hope...

Brilliant! Well done! I was worried it wouldn't work if I was constipated. But clearly its still working for you :-) Thank you xx

Thank you xxx

I hope it goes away. Does it affect your weight loss? Also do you take laxatives to ease the constipation aswell as Orlistat? Thank u xx

Thank u, my diet hasn't changed much since taking them as I have been doing slimming world for 6 months. Hopefully it will settle. Thanks again xxx

Hi, I was wondering if anyone suffered with constipation when they started taking Orlistat? I have been taking them for 3 days and have had no movement and am very bloated :( Thanks xx

Exactly! The Dr approves so it can't be that bad. Well I took 2 yesterday and will carry on and see how it goes. I'm looking forward to seeing some good results. I am aiming to get another 2 stone off with the help of Orlistat and then the final 1 1/2 stone off with slimming world alone to get...

Well done, sounds like it works really well for you xx

Some very good points have been raised. Yes I agree that slimming world is a low fat diet anyway so some people would say there is no need to take them but if it keeps me on the straight and narrow and disciplined then I think it's definitely worth a try x

It probly is the change in diet but its like we mentioned earlier these pills will help you keep on the straight & narrow because youl be scared of the consequences lol. Either way I have nothing to lose, iv been losing anyway for 6 months so nothing will change with regards to my diet, so wel...

Thank u. Yeah they can't do any harm. Especially as its off the Dr and on the Drs recommendation. Iv got nothing to lose (except lbs hopefully lol) Where is the Orlistat forum? Is it on here? I would like to have a nose at it :) xxx

I am happy, and I have done well so far on SW alone, but it's like you said starlight, it's a good way to keep you on the straight and narrow. The doctor said if I'm following it correctly as in low fat which SW is then he said I won't even know that I am taking the pills. Think I'm gonna give...

Hiya! I've been on Orlistat for the last year and have lost 7.5 stone so far, combined with calorie counting. It's the only weight loss drug available on the NHS, and it's not at all scary, lol. It just helps keep you focused really, as it essentially forces you to eat low fat. :) Your advice to...

Thank u for all your replies ladies xxxx

Hi Guys, I have been doing extra easy since June this year and have lost 2 stone 5 lb. My doctor has suggested Orlistat tablets. He said he thinks I could benefit from them as I am already doing a low fat diet. I haven't attempted them over Xmas as I have heard their are some horrible...

Only 1/2 off this week..... But won slimmer if the month :-)

I love it because it works, don't always know how but it works. I love all the different recipes and choices too. I love slimming world :-)

I don't know if they are the same, just know they are a vibrating plate you stand on and can do exercises on. Meant to be good for cellulite too. Worth a go I suppose

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone has done or currently doing wobble away (vibration plates) A salon by me has started doing the wobble away classes and wondering if they were any good and worth a go? And if you do actually loose weight on them? Xx

Where do you get the chickpea Dahl from? Is it free? It sounds lovely x

You look amazing. Well done xx

HONK! :)

Prawn biryani :)

Your going the right way. Keep it up! :)

I agree with everyone, weight watchers you have you count everything so it would be hard to maintain, we as with slimming world I have been doing it for 15 weeks and don't look at my books anymore or count or weigh, I am living by it without even noticing and still losing weight! I think...

I have an options hot chocolate (2 syns) before bed to satisfying my choccie cravings! I find if does help

Hi il join in too, I have lost 1 stone 7 lb so far. I weigh in on Wednesdays

Well done! :)

You need to remember why you are doing this, I have mentioned this on a few other threads, but get a picture of yourself when you are at your biggest and put it on the fridge. I find this helps as its a constant reminder of why you want to lose weight. You can do it, youv just lost your way a...

Thanks Texty_F I really hope so :) well done everyone else, so many brilliant weight losses. Really inspires you to carry on :)

Just 2 lb to go until club 10, weigh in on Wednesday fingers crossed :)

The slimming world website has a dessert section with some gorgeous desserts :) yum yum

Well done! Keep going your nearly there :)

Thinking of giving xls a go, I am currently doing slimming world. Do you think I wound see good results?

Get a picture of yourself from before you started SW and put it on the fridge as a constant reminder of why you are doing this. Just remember all the advantages of losing weight and feeling confident

I hate salad, I don't touch the stuff. But I fill up on lots of other free foods, I compensate with fruit & veg

Very true :)

Soups or a big bowl of SW chips, feels like your been really naughty but your not :) and I treat my self to an options hot chocolate for 2 syns. When I have a cold I also cook a SW curry, clears your head out, spices are meant to be good for a cold

Yeah you are totally right! Why cut them out if they aren't affecting my weight loss. I suppose it just feels so naughty

When I'm feeling like this I put a picture of me on the fridge that I don't like when I was at my biggest. So everytime I go to the fridge to be naughty I see the horrible piccie and think that's why I'm on a diet and that's why I'm not gonna fall off the wagon. It works for me. Also try going...

It takes over your life, it's all you think about, people offer you a biscuit and your thinking how many syns is that, people at work eating there own dinner and im thinking ooh how many syns is that. I talk about it constantly to people. So many people say to me I don't understand how the diet...

I to have this problem, I eat so many carbs, luckily it hasn't effected my weight loss.... yet. I have a feeling it will eventually tho. I tend to have some kind of carb with most meals :( need to cut it down!

This is really odd. Your diary looks really good. Do you fill out a food diary? Sometimes if I'm stuck in a rut I go back to basics, I change my hex b and have a different meal everyday. I re read the book to jog my memory and see if there is anything I have missed. I also fill out a diary, I...

This happened to me. Go back to basics as if your starting again, get your book out, read it page by page, check out the hex's, free foods and syns again. You might find something new you didn't see before. Then fill out a food diary. I find going back to basics helps and re reading your book as...

Just syn whatever sugar you have. 1 level tspn is 1 syn

Mine is to get my 2 stone weight award. 6lb to go, fingers crossed

Wow amazing! Wish there was one in Birmingham!

I agree Amy even tho I am following the diet and losing weight it just feels so naughty lol. I definetly have to work on portion size thou, and maybe over time keep reducing it. I just always worry Iv eaten to much even thou its all free

Hi, I'm new to the forum, i am 24, I have been doing slimming world for 14 weeks and have lost 1 stone 8 lbs so far. Would like to loose 4 stone altogether. It is good to see so many success stories on here, I hope I can be as successful as you guys. Jenny x

I put a photo of myself when I was at my biggest on the fridge so that everytime I head to the fridge to find something naughty it's makes me think twice when I look at the dreaded awful picture

Yeah I thought that would be the case. Only problem is I can eat and eat and eat haha! Thank you

Hi, I am new to this forum and wondered if anyone can answer my query. I have been doing SW for 14 weeks now and have lost 1 stone 8 lbs. I have lots of free foods but was wondering if in one day there is a limit to how many free foods you should have. I feel like I eat loads and loads...
