    @ jeanpeen, I ain't got NO willpower, it's all GOD, without him, I'd eat every piece of chocolate in sight!! smile And I would NEVER walk for 3-5 hours a day or do Billy blanks for 2 hours a day when I'm not walking. I only eat 1500 max calories a day and PRAY like crazy I lose the weight haha. All thanks to my beloved LORD, he has taken it off and continues to do so. SO to HIM be all the glory AMEN

    One of the chemists that I have been phoning had a delivery yesterday (Friday) and when I phoned this morning they only had 48 tablets left and someone was already on their way to collect them.. this was in Rainham Essex ..they said they have a continous order placed but had no idea when the next lot will be in..

    Another chemist in Basildon said they were told to expect a delivery during the first two weeks of June..so occasional supplies getting through but not enough..

    Hi Sharon this drug is known as Orlistat or Xenical and over the counter its called Alli .. the first two are usually 120mg strength and the OTC Alli is 60 mg.. it helps your body to not absorb some of the fat in your food ... but to find out the correct medical terms put in a google search for any of the names of this drug and you will get all the info.

    When I looked on Ebay the only ones I could find for the 120mg strength were in america and they were asking a small fortune for just 48 capsules.... they were over £70.00 with P&P on top.......

    According to the chemists, it is a packaging issue.

    According to doctor, they want to put the price up for NHS and waiting for an agreement!

    :Basically it's the patient that is losing out!

    If anyone is thinking of buying from Ebay and other places just remember there are plenty of fake drugs out there. We cannot be sure if a drug we buy is legal or not from these types of places and we might not get to find out until its to late as you could end up seriously ill or even dead.

    So be warned because the criminals just cant wait to get hold of your money.
