Doesn't seem to be doing anything apart from making me feel ill?

Are you sticking to no more than 15 fat per meal? (No more than 5g fat in 100 grams food?)

Hi Natalie, I think if you are having nasty toilet moments you are eating too much fat. I don't think your doctor gave you enough advise on what and what not to do on these tablets so have a read through these forums as there is so much information flying around. But the basic rule is to have a very low fat diet - no more than 15g of fat per meal, 3 times a day = 45g of fat per day in total. Then within that 15g of fat per meal, you must make sure that no one thing is more than 5g of fat per 100g, e.g if you fancy a tin of soup, look on the reverse at the dietry details and see how many g of fat the tin has per 100g. If it has 1.8 g of fat per 100 g and the whole tin is 400g, and you want to eat the whole tin, you will multiply 1.8 x 4 = 7.2g in total. So you could eat the whole tin and then have maybe a wholemeal pitta bread (which has 1.6g in total) and some salad - therefore your total g of fat for that meal is 7.2 + 1.6 = 8.8. Only snack on fresh fruit, fat free cup-a-soup, fat free yogurt (watch how many of these you eat as they are roughly 99 calories per pot so it can add up), rice cakes etc - basically snack on zero fat options only - and try to stick to max 1400 calories per day - although this will have to reduce as you lose weight. I started on 1400 per day but am down to 1250 per day as I have lost 20lbs now. If you follow these rules then you should not have any horrible toilet moments. I hope this helps. Good luck.
