:heart: Hi Fella, You might want to change your name first as that sounds defeatist and shows low self esteem before you start! You need to increase your cals so that you can eat more healthy foods. An average man that doesn't work out usually eats around 3000 cals a day. It's up to you whether you eat that much and work…

Hi, I asked my Doctor about an appetite surpressant to help me with my weight loss. She say's there is nothing out there without harming side affects and refused to give me anything. I went online and discovered a natural substance available in health stores called acai berry. Its supposed to be a berry that africans live…

Hi yes sometimes it's a big body shock to start dieting and stop smoking at the same time. Keep at it and you will be amazed quite soon I am sure!. Add me if you need a friend, I have only started this week so I am a newby too. xx

ps. you need to take the pills 3 times a day with food. xx:flowerforyou:

hi, I took this for about 6 months. Over here the doctor can give you the alli at 120mg strength and it goes under the names of "ORLISTAT" or "XENICAL". Basically if you overeat on the fat in food you will pass it through. It teaches you what you can and can't eat where fats are concerned. I lost 3stone in 6 months and yes…

Cheering you all the way. I have just started and love reading the sucess stories on here. GOOD GIRL x

I ditto the above posts, I am 53 and just started this week but started loosing the week before. If it wasn't for this site I would not have kept it up as I don't have much willpower. I had a very warm welcome, and unlike slimming clubs there is no judging on here. So welcome from me, I will be around for a while so please…

Hi,I have the same problem that my weight is all in the tummy area. When I measure I just stand as I do normally as this is how others see me. I couldn't walk around holding it in for long lol! I know you may measure a couple of inches smaller but its best to keep it natural I think x

Hi, Welcome, and you can do it!!

Hey to you too! I only joined here on Monday and have a long way to. I have found everyone friendly, helpful and very supportive. Welcome and add me as a friend if you wish. x
