Orlistat - about to start & any help would be appreciated!

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hallo, well today is day 1 of Orlistat and Slimming World combined. I'm devastated my weight has got so out of hand after losing 5 stone last year but a bad break up, losing my job & moving house all with a 4 year old has taken its toll and only now do I feel ready to tackle my weight issues.

I have never tried Orlistat before and any general tips/slash things to avoid (other than foods high in fat!) would be much appreciated.

Also any success stories to spur me on would be fab!

Thanks

Claire
