Orlistat?

Hi

I watch this lady on youtube who has lost like 10 stones which is amazing! She made a video of how she lost her first stone and she said she used Orlistat... I went to the docs and was given a 3 month supply but i'm really scared to use it!

What are your thoughts/experiences?

    I tried this for a month several years ago and failed miserably. The diet that went with it was impossible to follow and the recipes included were super gross and full of processed foods that weren't filling. If you do it try to fill your meals with healthy clean foods that will keep you fuller longer. There's plenty of things out there that fit the diet requirements it that aren't so awful as what they put in the paperwork. :P

    Hope it works well for you. Good Luck. Cheers!

    If you're scared to use it, that doesn't sound like it's what you REALLY want to do.
    I've seen you've lost 10 lbs already...which is a great achievement!
    I would continue to do what you're already doing and add a bit more exercise into your regime (if it's a matter of "speeding things up").
    Good Luck!
