I'm new here. I was on Xenical some time ago and it all went REALLY well. I went from a dress size 22-24 to a size 14-16. I lost a decent amount of weight and felt so much better and happier.
Then the weight loss slowed down, I was maintaining but not losing and without notice from the nurse at my local surgery, she took me off the tablets. She said they weren't working any more and didn't give me any option to stay on them or ease off them. I was really angry about that as I stuck to diet and exercise afterwards but the weight shot back on (and then some). I felt really down about it and the stress of moving and starting new things has meant that my weight has gone back up.
I know my nurse won't give me the tablets again (she doesn't agree with them any more now she's lost some weight with exercise alone) so I looked online and found this place.
I put in my order for a months supply of Xenical today so hopefully I'll get them soon. I only ordered a months worth because I'm not sure if they'll work for me again. I've heard reports that once you've used them and they've stopped working, that's it, your body is used to them and they won't work again. I'm hoping this is wrong but just in case I've stuck to only a months order this time. We'll see what happens
I've started changing my life as well. I'm studying right now so I've spent the last few months indoors reading a LOT but I've been making the effort to find the time to get out and about for some exercise these past couple of weeks. I've even convinced my housemates to take a ghost walk tonight, just because we'll get out and about I'm currently living in a city but coming from the country I'm finding city life a bit less...exercise driven. Walking places isn't the same here. I certainly felt healthier walking in the country but I'm going to give it a shot here by visiting the sites and not taking the public transport if I can help it.
Anyway, long story short (too late LOL!) Hi! I'm glad to be here and hopefully lose some weight sometime soon. It's great to know that people are out there supporting each other and not judging, as I'm sad to say a lot of other people (especially my nurse) do.
Hello there. I am quite new to Xenical too. I am an old hand when it comes to this site though, having been on reductil a while back.I also bought mine through this site. So far however I haven't had very much sucess. I only need to lose around two stone so I think that maybe they work better for people who need to lose a bit more.I have two months worth so I will keep taking it for that time to see how i go.
My aim now is to count calories and fat and up my exercise (although I do exercise quite alot anyway).
Best of luck. I haven't heard of xenical not working the second time round so hopefully that is just one of those myths!
Hey! Best of luck with the Xenical. I bought some Reductil once (somewhere else online) but it didn't really agree with me so they're just sat there in a draw. I don't think I'll bother with them again, but shockingly I think the Xenical are working already (second day). I didn't think they were meant to stop cravings for sweet food or anything, but I honestly haven't been as hungry as I usually am. Maybe it's the fact that I know I have a months worth of Xenical that set me back some money and I don't want to waste them LOL! But you know what, whatever works makes me happy
