Hi All

I started Orlistat yesterday. Need to lose weight to get my BMI down, otherwise we can't get IVF (or adopt).Can't get NHS unless BMI is below 30 (currently about 39) and private clinics wont' give you IVF unless it's under 35. It's devastating so gonna work really hard and fingers crossed, we'll get there. :cry:

Been reading lots of old posts and can I just say you all sound FANTASTIC!! There's just so much support on here and the information is brilliant. I asked the doc for the tablets and she gave them to me with no information.

Look forward to hearing from you all and good luck with the weight loss.

Hugs x x x
