Thought I would start my own diary!
I have been trying to lose weight on and off for a year now and have lost about 1 1/2 stone but 1 stone of that was going back on and off again!
I tend to do really well on diets and then just lose hope and go back to my bad habits. In the last few weeks I lost a stone but when I put on 1lb I decided that I would go to the dr for help. SHe was very helpful, reffered me to a dietician and prescribed xenical.
I have been taking Xenical for a week now and despite saying I wouldn't weigh myself until my next dr's appointment I have and I have lost 3lbs.
Breakfast is usually cereal - weetabix or porridge.
Lunch soup or sandwich.
Dinner a ready meal or something home cooked like chicken,sweet potato and veg.
I tend to snack on fat free yoghurts.
My GP has said I need to lose 5 lbs in four weeks in order to get another prescription and I hope I can do it as I really do want to lose weight and I have found it really keeps me focused.
I haven't had any problems with Xenical other than wind but I have eaten quite a few beans so that could be why!
Thankfully I haven't been 'Tangoed' and I feel there is no food in the world that is worth that!
Fingers crossed I am here until the weight has gone and I can feel as good as some of you do!
