Do you follow any other diet as well as oristat i go to rosemarie conley as they follow the 5% fat rule plus get a exercise class id be great at my diet if i got rid of my husband as hes the one who brings in the chocs and cakes lol

Could you have lost inches instead of pounds this week? When i was on Cd a couple times when i hadnt lost my cdc got me to measure myself (waist, hips, bust, thighs, arms etc) and it would be i had lost inches instead X

One thing I didnt do when i started was measure myself, I forgot :sigh: Will do it today and see if anything changes to the 18th when i have to go back to doctors, am worried because if i havent lost 5% they may take me off :cry: so will give it full on with the exercise, maybe this is the key??? x

Chala, you have three months to lose 5% so plenty of time.

I did the Zoe Harcombe diet this week to lose my holiday weight and it worked. Perhaps try something like that to kick start te weight loss - low carb, high protein.

Hi i know its hard to say dont get disheartened , im fairly new to xenical (week 5) for the first 2 weeks i lost nothing week 3- 1lb then week 4- 3 and half pounds , I think sometimes it takes the body a little while to adjust :sigh: keep at it im sure u will see some changes soon

Thanks for this downsizeme, am looking at other diets to combine as maybe i am not eating enough fat :/ Looking through my food diary I think this could be so.

I replied to this in your diary thread but just wanted to say keep going! Stay focused! You have over a week to get a loss for your docs appointment, you can do this. As others have said it takes a while to get into your system so don't give up yet. Remember I put on a 1/2 pound my first week!!! It takes time xxxx

Must be frustrating do you count calories as well as grames of fat? I always count calories x

 

[Chala1972]

At the minute am just concentrating on the fat gonnagetslim, I always check the cals for a rough guide to keeping in my amount but having looked through my diary i think i may not be having enough fat, sounds crazy to me tho lol

 

[Holliekin]

Hey Chala. It's the same for me too. It's my third week and no loss. Even put on 2lbs in first week . But just hoping it'll get going soon! Lol.

Are you eating a lot of pasta/rice/potatoes etc. Although they are very low in fat if you eat too much you won't lose weight.

No all I have is a cup full, use the american cups to measure out potatoes, rice, pasta etc Is a cup too much do you think? Last night I have frylight roast potatoes but only had 2 small ones, I always try to limit potatoes etc but am eating more than half less than I used to.
