    Hi all I was on these tablets in November and lost 8lb then December then dreading Christmas month I never lost anything but I did have time off for xmas so I'm lucky I never put any on lol

    I weigh each month so started again this month as I couldn't get set new tablets til 9th February with doctors appointments so busy, so my next weigh in will be 10th March day after my birthday so I can't go silly on my birthday lol

    That's great doing well all

    And I'm from kent 30yrs old

      Hiya! I have only been on these tablets 2/3 weeks! I'm getting weighed every week at slimming world and every 2 weeks at the ivf clinic.

      Would be nice to keep in touch with someone who is on these tablets! X

      You will get there! I have 2 stone to lose before I can start my treatment. My husband is doing the diet with me which motivates me. I highly recommend slimming world, it's so easy to follow and the food is amazing! You can have a glass of vodka and diet coke for 2 syns and you are allowed 15 syns a day.

      I really recommend getting weighed every week as it does motivate you! X

      Aww great

      I will defiantly have a look into slimming world I think it might be easier as if you do it online I think you can note everything down and keep track eating better works it all out

      Thanks for all advice
