      Thank you. Just hope it keeps coming off as it is but have a feeling it may slow down  x

      Just go with the flow, you know if you are cutting down on the fat content of what you normally eat and taking Oristat, it will come off!

      Just dont let anyone sway you :-)

    Hats off to you for running in this heat, well done xxx I seem to lose 8lb and then get stuck. I'm also on venlafaxine which I've recently found out has a weight gain side affect. Seems crazy that I take one med to feel better, and have to have others to counteract them almost. 3 different types all trying to sort each other's side affects out. Try your best xxx I tell myself I'd rather be fit and heavy than just heavy smile
