Orlistat. Does anyone have any experience They can share?
Took best part of 2 years of symptoms before I was tested 😢 At the docs on Tuesday and she's prescribed
Orlistat
. I've not taken it yet as I wanted to research first. A quick scan of the info sheet says it can affect Levo. Can anyone share their experience? TIA x

Hi, I'm new here - Quick question pls?
I have a lot of weight to lose, this time I have Xenical /
Orlistat
from my GP and have some old Slimming World books (is it ok to say that?) which I'm using for recipe inspiration as well as the 12 week plan of course.

Can't diet for more than a few days
I've tried weight loss groups and
Orlistat
, I don't know what else there is. If anyone can give me any advice at all I would really appreciate it. Or eve tell me what made you finally decide enough was enough, and what keeps you going?

Read this article...you may disagree, but I'd like to think most of you do not...
There is only one other drug available like this,
Orlistat
, and basically they are 'quick fixes' for lazy people (ouch!)

Oralistat and NDT
He mentioned it can leach you a little in terms of meds so to make sure my meds are taken well before or well after the
orlistat
. For the last week I have felt so rubbish, hypothyroid rubbish, achey and bone tired. I can seep all day and all night, or I could if my parents would leave me alone!

Just making last attempt to lose weight!
So, I have today been prescribed
Orlistat
and I am going to try increasing my intake of Chinese, as opposed to western food.

Levels
He has given me another 2 months of
orlistat
as I had lost 2 lb this month, he said it was obviously working. I told him that I always eat a fat free healthy diet and have been exercising an hour a day although it's killing me, and I should have lost much more than that under normal circumstances.

Levothyroxine and Orlistat
He has prescribed
Orlistat
to assist weight loss as I informed him I eat healthily already. When I said I don't understand how I am so big (BMI of 35) as I was always underweight until I had thyroid issues he said "well you have never been 45 before..)

Seaweed could be key to weight loss, study suggests
This ends up sounding like an alternative to
Orlistat
/ Xenical / Alli. Alginate is already used for dental impressions and as a constituent of Gavison. Not sure if it is the same form or not.
