I started 8 weeks ago weighing in at 20st I am now 18 13lb but must admit it is slowing up.........the reason .......exercise, i just can't get motivated. The diet side is no problem but I need to move my arse....arrrrh!

their an aid to a smarter healthier way of eating.
The criteria for weight loss is your body masss index
\"Doctors are expected to follow guidelines when prescribing orlistat. These include:
* Your BMI (Body Mass Index - see below)
must be 30 or above, or
omust be 28 or above, and you have a medical condition that would benefit from losing weight (such as diabetes or high blood pressure).
* You must lose at least 5% of your weight by three months from starting orlistat, and at least 10% of your weight by six months. If not, the orlistat should not be continued to be prescribed.
* You must be between the ages of 18 and 75 years.\"
If you fall within that then you shouldn't have any problems but I personally would not go in saying you want a quick fix but say how the weight is affecting your confidence, your health and is making you miserable.

When I mean a 'quick fix' I mean I am so desperate I need to lose some NOW as I feel so miserable and everything else I'm doing doesn't seem to be working well for me really. Thanks for the advice though. I do have high blood pressure and fit the other criteria and would love to give something new a try.
Thanks for your replies. x
