[QUOTE="gillyh, post: 102329, member: 10476"] Hi Shand. It's been a while since we chatted. Things are going okay with the orlistat. Lost 31lbs in 7-8 months but hit a plateau at the moment. Don't think I'll hit the target this time though. Be careful though with orlistat and what you eat. Probably me though. At one point all I could eat at work was fruit and yoghurt. Loads of fruit!!! I was in agony for about 4 weeks with severe bloating, constipation and pain bad enough to almost make me pass out!! that combination will not be repeated though it did help me to lose weight. Now I'm going to have to come up with a better way to lose the weight. I don't eat so much...especially at work...but some nights I just can't stop eating especially fresh bread with clover . Just take it slowly and you'll lose all the weight again. If the doctor stops the orlistat I'll demand a referral to the weight clinic at the local hospital...for everything!! Next week I have to have my 6 motnthly diabetes mot. Hate those as there's always something for them to moan about. Rest of day off and then back to nurse the Friday for weigh in....help!! Freedom the week after!! Week off work..no idea what i'll be doing. Thinking of checking out one of the newly renovated parks. It's several miles long with a lot of heritage spots. :mrgreen: [/QUOTE]
