Hi
I am starting Xenical tomorrow. I have a lot of weight to lose but for now I am concentrating on the first half stone.
My doctor didn't really explain much and I have been reading through the threads trying to understand but I am still a bit confused so if someone could please help me I would appreciate it
I understand you aim for no more than 15g fat per meal, so am I right in thinking you can't have more than 45g fat daily? Is it ok to have something like a small bag of Quavers or Snack A Jacks as a snack? Can you ever have a small bit of choc or alcohol?
I know you go by the 100g fat rule but if you are only eating a serving (eg a bag of Quavers) do you just count a quarter of that?
Sorry for all these questions I am just so puzzled!!!
