well guys i am living in the glorous caribbean and as you can imagine there are plenty of heatlhy food choices but in the past few years i have let my weight slowly creep up until a few weeks ago upon weigh in i was 200ibs and 5'6 and bmi 30, so time for a change i bought zenical 120mg and that was 10 days ago and i am now 10ibs lighter  smile  when it comes to the side affects yep you learn quick and definately dont want them.  but it is making me learn what foods are more fatty even hidden fat and i cant wait to go and shop when i reach my goal weight of 150.  so 200 to 190 and now my goal is 180.  lets see

      well done, keep us posted, I would like to know how you get on, I am 215lb and I have started slimming world, I am not sure if you have heard of it? its healthy eating but no weighing or counting, limit certain food groups.

      I am on 120mg and have been adviced to take one a day, how many was you on in your first week
