Hello and Welcome xx

It is certainly do able if you stick with it, but i think you will find that so long as the doctor can see that you are making the effort he will be happy with whatever you lose. If you can try to get some exercise in as I am told that really helps boost your losses. i am sure if you have a look through some of the other threads on here you will find lots of useful tips to help things along.

Good Luck xx

Hi and Welcome!! this forum is great because you dont have to walk your journey alone!! I imagine the doctor gave you a big number like that to make a big effort. mine told me 8 pounds in the first month. But! 13 is doable, the key is exercise! good luck!!!

Hi, and welcome to xenical losses can be different for everyone,you'll see my losses on my siggy,you'll see how they differ greatly each week...

exercise is key and so is drinking water

have you read the sticky info?explains a lot about the rules etc..
good idea to read back through the threads,a lot of the main questions and answers are further back.

wish you lots of luck!
