Ive started back on orlistat today after 4months of being off it, ive put 5lbs back on, I started to cheat and then gave up! Last year I lost 2stone in 7weeks whilst on it. I am now determined to give it another go and get down a few dress sizes ready 4 the summer. I'm curently 98kgs, started at 107kgs. I'm after someone to be a diet buddy with, maybe share daily emails to spure each on and to stop me from giving up! Anyone interested send me a message 😊 xx

      Hi that would be great 😊 dont b scared on them aslong as you follow a sensible diet ull b fine, b warned tho if you have a high fat meal u will get horrible side effects!! When I was on them before I usually had fruit and low fat yog or 1 slice of brown toast with a tin of toms and mushrooms for breakfast, chicken,tuna or egg salad for dinner. Then I would have meat for tea with salad or veg and a small boiled potatoe. This is how I lost nearly 2 stone in 7weeks. I had fruit in between if I got hungry. Remember to drink loads and loads of water as it helps with the bloating. Xx

      When I lost the 2 stone, I would have fruit and yoghurt or 1 brown toast with tin of toms for breakfast. Then chicken,tuna or egg salad for dinner. For tea I had meat with salad or veg with a small boiled potatoe. I would have fruit and low fat yogurts in between. I didn't really stick to the fat rule in food I just made sure that I had healthy food and didn't go over 1300cals per day. Make sure you drink loads and loads of water everyday it helps with the bloating, how long have you been on them x
