I am thinking about it.

At 11 stone, despite regular (3-4) 30 minute sessions of cardio and light weights, i am still unable to push down to my target weight of 67kg (I am 75kg, have in the past 3-6 months hit 72kg).

Really frustrated and want to see if Proactol will help!

Any views?

When taken after eating, Orlistat reduces the amount of fat that is broken down in the body and absorbed into the blood system by about 30%. These fats are expelled naturally and so, with less fat being absorbed, weight is lost.

However, if you are not dangerously overweight, Xenical or Alli may not be the right option for you. You should always consult your doctor should you want to use either of these alternatives. Unfortunately there have also been some worrying side effects from these Orlistat based weight loss medicines.

Users have reported uncontrollable and embarrassing discharges. Taking these Orlistat based drugs could well result in an extremely embarrassing situation. Other possible side effects are oily stools, loss of bowel control, diarrhea, rectal pain, liver inflammation and fatigue. So whilst they certainly help weight loss Orlistat based products may not be the complete weight loss answer.

oily ***** in public = no no no.

Lift heavy weights, do cardio on off days, restrict your calorie intake. It helps to follow a good diet too.
