Coming to the end of my journey on orlistat, i am finding it very hard to loose the last few pounds, i seem to have come to a stand still.

Can anyone suggested anything i can do?? i have tried eating different things, but i seem to have hit a brick wall :-(

    Try just having a couple of litres of vegetable juice for a few days. It should give you a nudge. Having an all fruit dat can also help.

      oh bless you, go with the Boots one 3llb off, and thats a start, and praise yourself, people are noticing you look  slimmer and that should make you feel better. And you got the dress on!! :-) :-) Please stick at it, do you drink plenty of water??

      Just keep telling yourself you can do it. Have you been doing any exercise? 

      this has to be a life change, so its not going to happen over night. 

      Please stay strong, stick at.

      Do you get weighed in the morning, i find thats the best time to do it.  I am always here for support.

      Big hug
