Hi everyone!

New to site and started Xenical yesterday. I've been eating healthily for the past few weeks before starting xenical. I have started a food diary and am recording calories as well as fat. Thanks for putting this up Piink. I was at a loss before I read this! There is absolutely no info from the dr and nothing with regards to fat intake came with the pack! I have been given a 2 week course and just before that ends have to go back to the drs to the weight management clinic where they will weigh me and give me a prescription for more Xenical. I am really looking forward to losing weight! I am sick of being the size I am and especially with getting married next year! Congrats to everyone on their weight loss, you are all an inspiration, especially you piink!

Hi there The first post in this thread explains Xenical really well. The food you eat while on the tabs should be no more than 5% fat, and you should have no more than 15g of fat per meal. I'd really recommend keeping a food diary, either a wee notebook that you keep with you, or online( I keep a food diary in my kitchen and I write down everything I eat, the fat content and I also count calories too). Also really look at the labels of the foods that you are buying, that way you can keep a really good check on the fat content.
Good luck and we're all here to help each other, so any probs just post and one of us will be sure to help you

Awesome help for newbie!

Thanks for posting all that info on Xenical, etc. I'm on Day 1 and raring to shed the chunk..had enough. Doc was useless and provided NO info whatsoever, so you're a bit of a life-saver in this department!!

Well done on losing so much already. I lost 3 stone last yr on Lighter Life but I found it an unrealistic way of life to maintain...hence why the weight has shot back on..oops!

Anyway, sure I'll be posting often from here on.

Cheers again!

CONGRATULATIONS on your weight loss so far! I'm on the 3rd day of my 'xenical' journey and after reading your post i am very inspired! Are you following a diet plan as well as taking the tablets or are you going it alone? An example of your 'food day' would be appreciated. Well done again x
