Hello
I bloody hope so LOL
I have been on xenical reductil, every diet going and was 20stone 5 when I went to see my GP after xenical was driving me crazy, she brought up a band.
but toold me to go and think about it for 6 months, well I waited 2 months and went back well actually I sent her a letter and she asked to see me.
I went and she said its all changed you now have to do a weight management course with a dietician and this runs for a minimum of 6 montsh but she woudl type a nice letter and tell them what I have been throug etc etc..
well did she heck and I wasa told for no one they woudl reduce teh 6 months !!!! gutted or what so I found thsi site and moaned and moaned LOL
That was over 6 months ago as in all I have had 6 appointments but they have taken over 7 months !!! nhs time scales are different arnt they !!!!
well I had to write down what I eat what excercise I do etc... and carry on with
xenical
I am now 18st10 (i just put 2 lb on this month)
I have treats etc... but I do stick to my healthy eating quite well. My hubby is 10stone 7 and eats the same as me
I have 3 kids ages 6, 4 and 17 months
I too want to be thinner and healthier for them as well as me. I am only 5ft 4 and have massive Bangers which dont help.
I hope that the rules have changed again and this 6 month weight management course is used differently as its OK if you are new to it all as it is very informative but come on not when you have gone through years of diets and drugs to get thinner.
Good luck xxx
