when your on xenical i know u talk about the 5 g fat per 100 g but u also say u can have up to 15g fat in one meal. so does that mean whatever i eat cannot exceed to no more then 15g of fat in that meal? xx

 

[Rachgleeson]

thats right, make sure whatever it is you have though has no more than the 5g per 100g, so say its 4g per 100g chips you could 300g!! Hope that makes a bit of sense!! i know it can get confusing but you will get the hang of it!!

 

[booboocraig]

Kayee......as long as your daily fat doesn't go over 45g you can spread it over the 3 meals....it doesn't have to be 15g per meal.......
