Feelin down

Aww cheer up it's early days! Nothing happened for me for the first few days because they made me all bloaty and horrible then one day BAM I'd lost 5lbs! Don't give up! Just think yourself lucky you haven't had any nasty side effects!!

Hey teejay,

I know how you feel im only 3 days in and i've been a total bitch today! I didn't sleep a wink last night or the night before even tho i have been real tired!

I have snapped at everyone today and had a huge fall out with my best friend! :cry:

I understand what you mean about the slimming club thing. I went shopping today and was looking at the fat content on everything!

I want you to know that you're not on your own. Im 5ft 4 and 13 stone. Got 3 stone to loose and feel like its a life time away!

I like you haven't had any side effects and keep doing stupid things like trying on clothes that are 2 small, realising they dont fit then getting all depressed again!

Are these things really gonna work? I want orange oil so that i can see something happening!!!!

trust me you don't want the orange oil experience!!!! I made that mistake before finding this forum

Just keep on 'being sensible' I know its boring but if you keep at it it will work!!!

Good luck

Laups

I've been on these for 6 days now.I must admit im finding it hard with sticking to low fat things.I do slip up but the way i see it is,im still doing better than i was before.Even if im not perfect

I have alot of weight to lose so im praying these work for me too.

I know what you mean - I'm on day 4 and feeling bloated and full although the bloating does seem to be easing today so maybe its just the body getting used to the \"bluies\". I even managed to go out for a chinese meal last nite and still lost weight - yipee :D

Luckily no other side effects and I was carefully wot I ate, no fried stuff, mainly chicken in lettuce leaves, chicken and seasonal steamed veg - v yummy.

Keep your chin up girls - we will all succeed :roll:

i'm loving these babies!!!

My trick is to stay postive, wear the clothes that make you feel good and look for low fat foods that you enjoy eating!!!

I've found some scrummy yogurts in Sainsbury which are virtually fat free so when im hungry/grumpy/miserable i eat one of those!!!

\"My trick is to stay postive, wear the clothes that make you feel good and look for low fat foods that you enjoy eating!!! \"

Ditto!

Unfortunately the tablets aren`t magic (bummer..lol)! We have to put the effort in also....by eating properly and then the tablets will do their bit.

The orange oil only means that uve eaten too much fat. Don`t look for that as a sign that the tablets are working.

Ive never had it, and Ive lost 7lbs.

Keep positive.

Hey Girlies

Thanx for all your feedback and advice glad to see that I am not alone,I do feel better this morning so onwards and upwards as they say!!!I think this forum is really helpful for us!!!Just another thing that I am a little concerned at is that I dont eat enough fat at brekkie and lunch.....is this a problem do you think?????

thannnnnxxxxxxxxxx

I dont eat much fat in these meals either, it means i can eat a nicer dinner!!! I dont think its a problem but dont starve you

I eat a banana and a yogurt for breakie, a salad for lunch with another yogurt and snack on grapes and tescos cereal bars, the value ones are only 1.7g of fat and they are white chocolate and strawberry mmm mmmm mmmm

Then i have things like chicken and pasta for tea but can have a sauce with it, Last night i had grilled gammon steak, poached eggs and grilled mushrooms with no side effects! yayyyyyyyy

We are always here if people need a moan, got questions, or just generally want to chat!

Hey guys - anyone had the weepies yet? I seem to be suffering really badly with it today and cant stop bawling me eyes out......help :cry:

Hi Motorsportgirlie!

Can I ask, when you eat your breakfast and lunch do you take a tab after :?: as they dont contain much fat if any :!:

I've been reading and other gals out there advise not to take them if you haven't eaten a meal with at least 15g of fat in cos it would be a waste of a tab. I'm at the end of my 3rd week on tabs but have only used up 2 weeks worth as I'm eating very low fat meals.

I've also heard they have to 'get into your system' but if you're not taking them all the time how can they get into it :?

I'm REALLY CONFUSED :!:

:? L'l jan :?

My understanding is that you take them with a meal three times a day unless there is no fat in the meal - hope that helps

:D

Yea i take the tablets

When i spoke to the doctor and the dietician, you should take them unless there is less then 1g of fat in the meal.

Hope this helps.

Its doing something as I've lost 9lbs in 2 weeks

Thanks guys, perhaps thats why I've not lost anything up to my own weigh in last week

Will start giving it large with them seeing as I now have got an unused weeks worth :!: Hope I start losing before my visit to the drs next week :wink:

cheers

Go for it, you have nothing to lose but weight :D

You know where we are if you need us!!!
