    I'm on Cerazette and had no problems at all with the weight loss. I had around 10 stones to lose and I'm over half way. It's slowing down a bit now, but as long as I aren't putting on, I'm in a good place! (Like they say, the faster it comes off, the faster it goes back on!)

    Each pill affects each person differently. My big problem was the implant - made me pile weight on and gave me lots and lots of unwanted side effects.

    Maybe have a word with your GP / nurse about the pill? It's one of those though - if you've got no other problems or side effects, is slow weight loss worth putting up with?

    Thanks, that's good to hear! I have no side effects with cerazette and it has sorted lots of problems for me so it's def not worth changing. I never had any probs losing weight when I was on the normal pill, but I can't take that now because I had an embolism last year :eek: I was feeling rubbish this morning and have been thinking of not going to WI, but am back to being positive again now so will go :)

    Morning All,

    had WI this morning and lost a pound which I am pleased about don't get me wrong but it's week 2 and only 3 pound altogether but at least it's a loss.

    Karen - I have stuck to it rigidly also and would have liked to have lost more so please stick with it. I am drinking a lot of water every day which I do think helps.

    It's difficult isn't it - when you see others losing a good few pounds in their first weeks, but I guess as long as it's going down and staying down that's all that matters x

    WI tomorrow, but according the the home scales I've lost nothing...may have even gained 1lb, now I've wrote everything down this weekend, and have stuck to it, haven't been overeating, but have had enough, so i'm going to be v downhearted if I've lost nothing/gained this week. Factored in a flexi syn evening on saturday for wine (had 32.5 syns that day) and have been having about 5 less a day since to make up for it. Blagh.

    Well done Sagaris and all the other losers! I maintained this week, no suprise, infact it was a suprise that i hadn't gained! Have felt really hungry and unmotivated the last week, so it has been a struggle to optimise at all! Have been good so far today, although i am having chocolate cravings..which is not good! Stay motivated everyone x

    I'm on Cerazette too & thought it was causing probs with my weight loss but the nurse at my Drs said it shouldn't affect it - it's one of the best for not making you gain weight apparantly.

    I think my probs are just down to what goes in my gob!

    Did a mystery shop tonight at a restaurant - beef chilli nachos, pizza & waffle with toffee sauce & ice-cream plus wine....see what i mean?! Ah well.
