Hi all
I'm not sure that I am doing this right! I have been taking xenical since 29th December, I was told to eat food that contained less than 5% fat which I have been doing, but I feel that maybe I am eating too much carb. To date I have lost 4lbs is that about right. I don't have to be weighed until 19th January.
A typical days food is as follows:
B'fast: Fruit, muller light yogurt and a handfull of Special K mixed in or 2 slices toast with homemade marmalade
Lunch: Sandwich of either white or brown bread with cooked meat and salad, sometimes I spread Laughing Cow extra light on, fruit and maybe a ten calorie cup a soup
Evening Meal: Jacket or Rice or Boiled pototoes, vegetables and chicken or Boiled rice and chick pea Dahl or Turkey/chicken cottage pie
followed by fruit or a pkt of berry snack a jacks which I found to contain 1.8g of fat per 100g as a snack if necessary.
I'm struggling as to what to have for a days menu as both myself and other half eat the same food, he doesn't mind.
I have an office based job so exercise is limited although I do try to run around to take messages rather than ring messages through.
If you can help advise me on being more successful with this I would be most grateful.
I have read lots of good advice on this forum and can see that there are some fantastic weight loss stories. I really hope that by the end of this year I can be one of them.
I have 3 and a half stone to lose and would like to do that this year if at all possible.
Can I just say though eating what I have been doing I have not had any side effects from the pills.
