“In December 2022 I weigght a hedtry 222KG,although I am only 185 cm; I neede to lose \t least 32KG, but my target weight was between 78 and 82kg.
I was advised by my GP to take Orlistat and look at my calorie intake.
I stopped eating anything with sugar, radically reduced the intake of carbs, increase proteins and vegetables.
In the first 12 months I shed 14kg, and now, after getting rid of the first stubborn 14 kg I lost, but now I shed another 20kg, I am down to 88kg . . . another 10 to go!
One great extra advantage, my type 2 diabetes has been in remission for at least 12 months.”
“I've been using this medication for a while. Initially it helped me lose around 1.5 st alongside a sensible diet. Recently it's helped maintain my weight at a reasonable level.”
