"i started taking orlistat yesterday morning, and weighed myself this morning to find i&#039;d already lost 5lbs. i&#039;m actually amazed. i&#039;ve had no side effects so far so i&#039;m really happy. i have been exercising and eating healthy for the past two months with only minimal weight loss. i have to lose 7kg in 3 months for them to continue giving me this drug and so far i can&#039;t see that being a problem! will update in a few weeks with my progress, very pleased so far"
