Hi Im kerry
Its my first day on the pills too.
I've got a few questions if that's ok as my Docter just gave me the tablets and not much information/instructions.
Is there are certain amount of calories i should consume per day, or is it ok to have a low calorie diet? Also is correct that I shouldn't have over 30grams of fat per day?
Thank you

No as many calories as you can fit in within the 45g per day of fat.
If you look in the 'stickies' section at the top there is a fantastic new starters post which gives you everything you need to know to get going.
But basically - 45 g of fat per day. So around 15g fat per meal.
You need to check the backs of packets for the fat content per 100g not the portion, pack size. You must choose foods that are 5 g of fat or less per 100g
Good luck. You'll enjoy it

hi here is another tip, i sometimes like the odd burger and the other day my b/f got some venison burgers and one contained only 3 grams of fat per whole burger apparently venison meat is very lean it tasted lovely cooked on a skillet no oil and bulked it up with veg made a nice little meal, there are alternatives i guess we just have to look for them so that way you dont feel deprived 
hi i dont feel deprived myself we just have to be careful , its hard to get a balance so that you dont end up saying i cant eat that or cant go out for a bite to eat, as lexie says thats when it can become dangerous, personally i would like to kick start my diet using xenical and then maybe come of them after losing a stone and hopefully just eat sensible as they say everything in moderation ,and good luck by the way

Sorry I've not been on here for a few days and I know you asked me what I eat but I can't find the post.
I'm following slimming world so I keep my fat intake low by eating fresh stuff I've cooked myself because I keep my sw syns for the extra fat grams on xenical.
I've always cooked from scratch because I know what's in my food. I hate the thought of preservatives and additives etc so I don't know ready meals and stuff so I get more food for my calories and fat. However I know I'm in for the long haul and believe in eating food that I would normally eat which us why I eat cake and chocolate and as long as I've kept my meals low fat then I can eat my syns with no tango effect
