Hiya, i am newish too! I started mine on Tuesday and am doing well i feel really pleased cos i was so worried about taking them.
I am doing a low fat diet making sure nothing i eat has more than 5grams of fat per 100grams and not having more then 15 grams of fat per meal.
Sounds harder than it is, you will be suprised what you can eat. I have had no nasty side effects.
I have see the oil or fat in the toilet when i have been which in a really weird way kinda makes me happy cos i know its not in me!!
