Hi, I was looking to read other people's experiences of using Orlistat as I have only been on it a week. I was happy to find this forum as you all seem to really support each other and offer good advice and are happy to talk about your experiences - however good or bad. I had started to change my eating habits prior to starting Orlistat and i'm determined to finally tackle my weight problem. Anyway i hope that i can call on you guys when the going gets tough! My weight loss so far is:

24/01/10 Start weight (to ashamed to divulge it)

31/01/10 - 2 lbs

07/02/10 - 3 lbs

14/02/10 - 2 lbs

21/02/10 + 2 lbs (started Orlistat 23/02/10)

28/02/10 - 5 lbs

I'm happy with my progress so far.

    you should be that's a brilliant amount of weight to loss in the first month. don't get disappointed if it starts to tail off and you start losing 1 or maybe 2lbs a week as slowly does it is the best way. also don't forget you will be losing cm's/inches as well

    keep up the good work
