Oil every time no matter what i eat!
Posted , 4 users are following.
Hello everyone, I am on my 4th week of Orlistat.
I have noticed no matter what I eat I always have oil when I go to the loo. It used to be a bright yellow but now it’s gone a dark orange.
For instants last night I had a small portion of poached salmon, asparagus, green beans and salad (no dressing) and yet when I went to the loo this morning it was practically all oil.
I do not understand where I am going wrong, I’m trying to be strict with myself, I don’t snack anymore and I’m eating tons more fruit, but I have hardly lost any weight at all.
Why is nothing happening weight wise?

Generally I would say I am sticking to a max 15g of fat per meal.
I was told I don’t need to take oralstat when I eat things like salad but I still will if I have dressing just in case. Is that why I am going wrong? Should I be taking them all the time?

I think the issue is that you need to check your food labels and stick to each item having no more than 5g fat per 100g of that food. Salmon has about 13g of fat at least per 100g so it's well over and why you got the oil. If you stick to that rule it doesn't matter how much you have as such as long as you stay under the 15g of fat total per meal.
I find myfitnesspal helps me keep track. I know how much fat I'm having per meal and also I keep my calories under 1500 per day.
Also, are you doing exercise? That will definitely help. You need to eat or burn 3500 calories less than you need over a week to lose 1lb of fat.

As for exercise I have mostly been walking, I was signed up to docspot by my doctor but as its been over 3 weeks since I got a reply and it still hasn't started yet.
Maybe that is it! Maybe I just need to exercise more, its just difficult as im working full time.
