    Can u not ask for orilstat they are the 120g maybe your doc only gave u the loser dose to start with. 1/2 a stone is still a good weight loss. It took me 3 weeks to lose anything and now I have lost 13llb in 4 weeks but if u look some people have lost loads more . Good luck x

    Hi, does anyone know any fat free recipes for Banana bread or Sultana bread?. Also are Sultanas low fat enough that you can snack on them?.

    Thanks Hannah
