Xenical Newbie 😊
Posted , 7 users are following.
Hi!!
My name is Grace, I'm 30 and single mother to a beautiful 18 month old boy. Having struggled with my weight for as long as I can remember, my doctor has just prescribed me with Xenical.
I started taking the tablets today and obviously no side effects to report 😂 I'm just looking for a bit of advice/info from people who have taken it before or other people who are starting to take it and we can discuss how we're getting on!!
I'm 5ft9 and 15st12lbs. BMI 32.
Feel free to reply with tips/questions, anything Xenical related!! I'd really appreciate it 😊
Grace Xx

I did my weight and lost 1 & 1/2 lbs this week. I'm determined to get a bigger lost this week and I joined slimming world and so I'm really excited.

Hey all!! Sorry I've just been in work the past two days so haven't had a chance to post. Going pretty well this week, no major slip ups so far!! I'm feeling stressed about weigh in on Monday because I think if I don't have a loss this week then the tablets might not be for me. But I'm going to be positive and keep at it!! I'm so happy everyone's been having a good week!!

How's everybody getting on?? I weighed in today. Only down 1 1/4 lbs(the 1/4 is very important 😂
. Of course I was hoping for a bigger loss but at least it's going in the right direction. I just think of the size of a pound of butter and that's how much is gone off my body!!
Anybody else weighing in today? Hope you all got on great!!

Is still a loss though. Give yourself time to get into SW as I know people who have had slow starts but then picked up speed. Eat loads of speed veg that'll boost things xx

Welcome back Cath!! Hope you had a lovely break. It's sounds like xenical is really working for you I'm delighted. Even though my losses have been small I'm happy the scales are going the right way. I have to lose between 5 and 8 lbs in the first 3 months to be able to continue on them so I'm nearly have way there already.
One question: has anybody been drinking alcohol on them?? I'm going on a badly needed night out on Saturday and planning on having a good but to drink. Has anybody had bad side effects from alcohol? There's no fat in it I know but I just want to make sure my night won't be spent in the bathroom 😂
