Kay replied: "I tool xenical for a while a few years ago. I had success, lost about 2 stone. Alot of people stop taking it due to the "side effects", normally horrible poops. But, I must state that when taking xenical you are actually still meant to be dieting. Most people cheat, and overeat... eat bad foods hoping the xenical will take all the fat out of what they have eaten - it will do this, hence the nice liquidy/oily orange poo. When you take xenical you are meant to eat healthily and diet, and then you wont have these horrid side effects. So anyone who is experiencing bad stomach pains, orange poo, oily poo or rushing to the loo too much - you are doing it wrong and taking advantage of the medication. There is no "pill" or "quick fix" when it comes to losing weight. No pain, no gain I say. You do actually have to get your butt in gear and get some exercise and sort your eating out. Good luck!"

Xenical (Orlistat) SUCESS STORIES PLS? I'd like to hear from people who has used Xenical/Orlistat and has had results. Please fill me in on the details. I am thinking of using this drug in another month, but I do not know of anyone personally who has used it. I am quite a bit over weight, 60+ lbs. Thanks in advance!

Angel replied: "Actually its not a success story but it might help you decide on using Xenical/Orlistat. A lot of people claim to use and had great result on using slimming pills but all of them has effect, whether its good or bad. My Uncle was overweight and advice by his doctor to take Xenical/Orlistat. He only take it for few days. He said its insane to take Xenical. He experience going back and fort to the comfort room. (Hope you know what it means) He can't eat anything, because the minute he take anything in his mouth, he immediately feel the need to go to the comfort room. So, he never eat anything. He said his only fooling his self because he will get thinner not because of Xenical but because he can't eat. If you want to get slimmer ask for professional help. It needs a lot of patience and control. I used to be overweight, But exercise and right eating habits help me lose weight with out any pills. Xenical will only help you lose weight faster but its still up to you, how you will adopt to it. Beside its dangerous for your health to lose weight too fast, because your body might not take it nicely, so you must first ask a physician what is the right lbs to lose and the right time frame. Good luck, hope you can find the right way to get slimmer the better and fastest way."

I'm thinking of trying alli/OTC Xenical-got any success stories? I have the money, they sell it in the Eckerd's around the corner from me, my best friend's on it and says she lost 13lbs in 2 weeks already...I just gotta hear more! Do you know anyone who was on it? thanks mlgable, but I've been on a low-fat diet for years, to no avail. And I would consider the book you recommended, except the last time I was a teenager was 8 years ago...I'm 27 now. Thanks anyway....

mlgable replied: "The first thing you have to is be on a low fat very healthy diet to start with before you start taking the pill. You also have to exercise and realize to that once you stop taking the pill you will most likely gain all the weight back. Your best bet is do it the right way. Get the diet book The Diet Book For Teenagers Only and read it to learn everything you need to know."

BAM! replied: "pathetic"

angel replied: "I think you shouldn't do it. ever read the side effects of alli? DISGUSTING! did you ever try weightwatchers? its a good program. i'm on it just to keep my weight the same. i love it. try it out if you never joined."

Harmony replied: "I have lost 3 lbs in 2 weeks, so don't expect as dramatic a weight loss as your friend. I do think that it is worth it. I would recommend wearing panty liners the first few days until you know if you are going to have side effects (oily spotting)."

xenical has anyone got any good stories to tell? when will i notice weight loss i am 5ft 4 12stone 4 . understand the side effects ..is this the best weight loss pill around

Dr Frank replied: "It probably is the best and though its side effects are troublesome they are not dangerous. BUT though it does well in clinical trials it does not seem to be very successful when used in the community. This is probably because most users fail to stick to the prescribed low fat diet and don't exercise."

cherry_opp replied: "Hi I tried these before and I didnt lose any weight - infact I put on weight because I thought I could eat more chocolate etc and the tablets would take the fat out of my body... the side effects are quite awful. I dont know if you heard of Celebrity Slim, I lose weight with this and found it quite effortless."

xenical users only please? hi been on xenical for 5days, heard many stories, but honest i havent experience running to toilet. So even tho not running to loo r they still working? or am i just being good not eating too much fat. will i still have weight loss? i need to lose approx 2 stone, any advice please, and did everyone up their exercise? thanks .

lickter replied: "NURSE THIS BONER."

amanda p replied: "I'll be honest, I took Xenical and it was rubbish. It was a complete waste of time. I was eating a low fat diet anyway so I didn't have much fat to pass. I went on to use Reductil, which is an appetite suppressant and lost quite a lot (3 stone) I'm now pregnant again so I expect all my hard work will be in vain lol...."

booker_501 replied: "Well, I got a few girlfriends that use it. ya it does work even if you don't go to the toilet, you see the thing about Xenical is that it tries to remove the excess fat you take in your food in a way that you don't digest it and so it comes out when you go to the toilet I heard it can get unpleasant, but if your not going to the toilet which is the best thing bacuase if the oil isn't coming out (you know how0 that means your not taking in much of it! but the problem is that xenical only targets fat, ya it'll help you loose weight but i'd suggest some exercise and watch your carbohydrate intake aswell, good luck"

essdee replied: "My husband used it for a while, but stupidly only thought about the fats in his diet (cos of the effects...) and not the stodge ie bread etc, so did not lose much weight. He is not hoping to be prescribed Reductil to suppress his appetite, nut he eats soooo fast, his tummy does not have time to tell him he is full already! I wish he would slow down and eat at a normal pace, he will have finished whilst I am only one third through...not condusive to conversation. You could try eating some cheese and see what effect that has, you might have some duff pills of course!"

moose replied: "hi i am on it at the moment and with its it can be different each day some days i can be fine then another day its terrible (had an embarassing time at the cinema not long ago was embarassing) one side effect i have is that it turns your poop an orange colour and looks like oil coming out of you. just make sure you are always near a toliet lol they have helped me loose weight though"

sheru replied: "i took it for a while..and yes it did have embarrissing side effects..when you eat high fat foods it gives you diarea real quick..i was walking an hour a night and lost weight with this combo..but they are too expensive..i think one a day on your biggest meal..would do fine"

Xenical and Prednisolone? Hi was wondering if anyone else has taken Xenical after coming off steroids! I put on so much weight when taking steroids for an autoimmune disease. Now i am off steroids but cant shift the weight. My GP has prescribed Xenical, but iv heard so many bad story's about it. Will the steroid weight come off or will i have to take these embarrassing pills?

A replied: "yes, hahahahahahahahahaha!!!"

Rhianna replied: "Xenical does have bad side effects, but most importantly, this drug is never long term effective. It performs well in clinical trials but never long term. The only way to lose weight is a healthy reduced calorie diet and plenty of vigorous exercise.In my opinion, Reductil and Xenical etc are very irresponsible responses to obesity, and I think it is equally irresponsible for GP's to prescribe it...most good GP's won't, including my mother who has been a GP for 20 years and has never once prescribed a diet pill. It dosen't matter why your obese, or what has caused it, there are still never any short cuts to losing weight; less in and more out i'm afraid."

ditsy replied: "You would do much better to follow a sensible diet plan than take Xenical. Apart from loose stools and flatulence it can interfere with vitamin absorption - Vits A,D,E and K, so as well as limiting your diet to accommodate Xenical (recommended low calorie diet with no more than 30% fat) you might need vitamin supplements too. The weight will come off eventually and you will be much healthier from eating a sensible diet with no diarrhoea and no vitamin deficiency!"

Xenical Is this working? I have been taking xenical and a low fat diet, but only manage to go to toilet twice a week and very painful may I add. I do not experience loose stools nor the urge to go or the horror stories of leakage do you think this is working correctly. I do experience itchiness frequently though

Susan W replied: "It will still be working - if you get any bad side effects like leaking it usually means that you aren'tt following the low fat diet correctly. T he xenixal onhelp line you digesting a certain amount of the fat in your diet and any excess passes out your body in your poo. So if you eat only a small amount fat then it doesn't affect your bowels, if you eat loads, lots more is passed out and it gives you side effects !If you ring the helplone on your xenical pill packet they'll confirm this for you!"
