Hi all just wondering if anybody has any guidelines for me?? I'm new to orlistat my first day taking today. I've read loads about taking these but as I am a bit if a fussy eater I just need a food guideline. I eat oranges apples, most veg, chicken beef tuna for my meats. Please could someone please help me as I am quite paranoid in taking these tablets if I eat the wrong thing. My doctor didn't give me any advise what so ever and my chemist just told me low fat but didn't explain sugars fats fibre etc. Thanks Amy.

    Hi Amy,

    I hope you managed to find out some info, my docs didn't tell me anything so I had to research, how are you getting on?
