Hi Froufy, thanks for the support!

About the Xenical, I think my problem was that I used it as a "crutch" -- kind of like that really bad commercial for "fat trapper" -- take the pill and eat...

Hi Girl, If you just recently started taking the Xenical, I can tell you that it will subside within the first couple of weeks -- or at least it did for me. But if you've been taking it for a...

Wink Xenical and the fatty meal

Hi Nikolas, Thanks for the words of encouragement! It's always appreciated.

Hi Frouf! Sounds like you are definitely "on fire" with this! I wish you lots of success. How much weight are you looking to lose? I don't remember if you said that in the beginning.

Talking One good day!

Well I didn't walk 4 miles on Saturday, but I walked 2 and I stayed with my plan! Ate within my "exchange system", didn't go over on fat or calories and didn't eat before bed. That alone is a huge...

I do the same thing! I jump on and off the scale about 20 times a day. It's a hard habit to break and for the longest time I wouldn't buy a scale because I knew I would do that! Sometimes I think...

Red face Weigh-in

Weigh-in went pretty much as I expected! I gained a pound. But I know why, so I'm not beating myself up over it. And I *DID* get my period today so that can account for some of it. But most...

Chitosan

I've used chitosan, in fact I use it for a while and I can tell you that it didn't work nearly the same way as the Xenical. Chitosan is the ingredient that is also found in things like "The Enforma...
