    hi I was prescribed these a few years ago. I lost 6 stones in a few months by healthy eating and walking everywhere. but it helped me to eat healthy because the side effects if you have too much fat are horrid. I used to eat cereal for breakfast or toast, something like noodles or salad butty for dinner and steamed fish and veg with mashed potato. as long as you stick to healthy foods you will be ok. they do an helpline too that you can ring and they send you information in the post hope this helps x

      try to stick to 5g of fat per 100g of food butbe careful with eggs as they are slightly higher.

      Also there is a lady on here called Britney Spears, ask her for her blog page, some fantastic meal ideas on there and she is a truely inspirational lady.
