Hi guys, I'm looking for some advice and support.
I've been given Xenical by my GP a week ago today. I'm currently 16st 5lb. I have PCOS, and have struggled with losing weight for years. (last year I went to slimming world and lost 11lb's in 6 months....
So, since last Feb, i've been on a health kick. I excercise at least 5 times a week, which includes 3 sessions of body pump and at least 2 gym sessions where i'm doing between 5-10k on the crosstrainer and burning upwards of 500cals per session.
As i said, I started taking Xenical last week, and my first weekly weigh in i've maintained my weight.
I cant begin to tell you how disheartened I feel. I've cut out the biccies and stuff in work (which i rarely eat at home) and really watched my fat intake. Has this happened to anyone else? As I said, historically it has taken a looooong time to lose weight. Whilst I havent really gained anything recently, its just not dropping.
Should I go back to my GP or carry on and see how it goes?
Many thanks for reading.
