            I imagine the bran in the morning is not helping your wind situation but good luck on your diet. Im not as worried now as I was earlier about trying these pills now. Hopefully get the same great results as gk172!0

            Just started on Xenical and after 1 week no change in weight yet. Changed my diet and taking in a low fat diet. only 1 mistake this week and I paid the orange price! Won't be making that mistake again.
 Does it take longer for the results to show or am I doing something wrong???? Any advice appreciated.0

            Been on xenical since last thursday and still have to take laxatives. Why? Only go to the toilet maybe once or twice a week! Still feel like abdomen is being squashed. I doubt my insides must be in knots or something!
 I give up!0

            Have an appointment at the local hospital to see an Endocrine Specialist next month. Hopefully get this resolved eventually.0

            Hi Irr,
 Ive been prescirbed this today and I too am worried about it!
 The thing that bugs me is, I f you are meant to eat a low fat diet whilst on them wouldnt you lose weight anyway, what "job" do they do?
 Good luck to you though!0

            Started working now and seeing that 'orange' that everyone has been on about. Nothing too drastic and seemed to have lost 2lbs since Thursday so must be doing something. Havent changed my diet either and weight has been going up for ages so good result so far!
 Just dont think I would be game enough to where white on my bottom half though - just in case! ha ha0

            Hi Irr,
 I chickened out today! But I went to Asda and bought all my low fat stuff ready for tomorrow. How are you doing?0
