Best Weight Loss Pills











Best weight loss pills









There are countless weight loss pills available today, all claiming to be the best weight loss pills ever. Most of these are scams to make money out of all of us. Very few actually live upto the claim. If you are on the heavier side you must have asked yourself this question a thousand times. Looking for the best weight loss pills, you might have even been scammed a few times.





What are weight loss pills?

Weight loss pills are pills overweight people use to help them lose weight. There are no miracle medicines which on there own will get you a slim, slender body magically. Of course these medicines help one a great deal to lose weight and keep it that way. You might already know that weight loss pills can be divided into different categories, according to there mode of action. Therefore the best weight loss pills for anyone depends on which gives the best and safest results without disturbing the human physiology.

The 3 major players in weight loss pills are - appetite suppressants, fat burners and fat blockers. Fat blockers are now available more easily, and have recently gained enormous popularity. Xenical which is the brand name for Orlistat in particular has been very popular. Due to its undeniable success Xenical has been considered to be among the best weight loss pills ever. It works by blocking and enzyme called lipase. This subsequently inhibits fat absorption and therefore blocking fat absorption eventually helps one lose weight as then you are absorbing less calories.



So is Xenical among the best weight loss pills ever?

I will let you decide this. Here are the facts - clinical studies have proven that Xenical works on varying degrees on different people, but undoubtedly it does work in everyone. The reason for this variation seems to be related to individual compliance, diet and exercise. Clinical studies showed that in one year between 35.5% and 54.8% of the subjects achieved at least a 5% reduction in body mass. Overall up to 24.8% actually achieved at least a 10% reduction in body mass! More importantly from the morbidity point of view, the most impressive finding was the reduction of incidence of type II diabetes in almost 37% of the subjects. No doubt Xenical is considered among the best weight loss pills ever.

A point to note is that although the above results are very impressive, after the subjects stopped taking Xenical i.e. after one year period, a significant number of subjects regained 35% of the weight they had lost i.e. if someone lost 30 pounds over one year they regained 35% of that. To understand this further, an important thing to remember about Xenical is its mode of action. Although it is among the best weight loss pills, it’s mode of action is by binding fat and preventing fat absorption. Once you stop taking Xenical (and therefore let the fat absorb) and continue with the same fatty diet as before commencing Xenical then of course the fat which was before not being absorbed by Xenical now goes to your system and hence results in weight gain. So the solution is to start with Xenical and modify your diet along the way. Although it is among the best weight loss pills out there an effort on ones part is important for long term goals.



Sideeffects of Xenical

Common side effects are gastrointestinal related i.e. flatulence, nausea etc. Usually these are more severe when initiating treatment. Most of these last less than a week. It is important to remember that fat soluble vitamins like vitamins A, D, E, K and beta-carotene are also not absorbed. Therefore while on Xenical taking multivitamins will prevent one getting deficient in these vitamins.

Contraindications of Xenical

Consult your doctor before commencing Xenical if you are nursing, pregnant, have any kind of malabsoption syndrome, or reduced gallbladder function.

Where can you buy Xenical?

Lumpy Bumpy Sore and Bloated

Went for my fill on Saturday. Another drive to Barnes. Another meeting with Dr. Dovey, who wasn't up for chatting for some reason. I was early for my appointment, very early, but he saw me and then left the building. Strange. Oh well I guess its nice to finish early for a change.

I met D after for some TLC in Starbucks and a peek through her weight loss expedition too. It was SO LOVELY of you to come and meet up. I must admit I am very depressed at the moment, and I didn't feel much better after the fill. Chatting to someone who knows what you are going on about really does help.


I have come to some opinions..


There can be either 2 things wrong with my band experience. Each throws up new questions...


Here they are:

1.) When I fell down the stairs in May, went to Sri Lanka and then re gained everything I had lost up to that point (20 odd pounds) I dislodged something or caused a leak in the system... one end of the tubing come off or something like that.


2.)Dr. Clayson from The Peel Medical Practice in Tamworth did nothing except inject my tummy with very expensive water - missing the site completely and therefore I was empty until I met Dr. Dovey.


Arguments for the first case:

1.) When I fell down the stairs I was in agony in my stomach. I ended up being admitted to hospital for 3 days where they systematically gave me a rectal exam, ultrasound and x-ray and various drips and plugged me full of morphine.
2.) I weighed 16 stone 4 before the fall. I now weigh 17 stone 12, slowly regaining the weight in the following 5 months down the track.

3.) Every time I get a fill I am incapacitated for DAYS. I have to plan my fills carefully so that I don't need to work after them. My stomach swells around my port scar and is sore and hard like a rock. (check the photo) Today the scar is a little inflamed and red round the edges from the swelling.


coincidence?


Arguments for the second case:

1.) I never liked or trusted the guy Dr. Clayson in Tamworth. He was a smug arse.

2.) His hands were shaking when I was there and he was giving me my first fill

3.) I didn't feel a thing. No whooshing in my band area, no pain in my port. It also didn't feel the same as when Dr. Dovey does it. With Clayson it was like getting a tetanus jab. With Dovey there is all this pressure and I feel the needle connect with the titanium plate at he back of my port and everything.


Arguments against case one:

1.) I know that you are able to do all kinds of violent sports with a band, and 3 months after it should have been ok.

2.) Even after going to sri lanka I didn't put on an ounce, it was only slowly after that

3.) I have some kind of restriction now, which I dont think I'd have if there was a leak or something

4.) I am allergic to loads of stuff and its possible the reaction at the injection site is just me

5.) I lost 6 pounds after my last fill, and then put it back on, but I hadn't exactly been eating good things :o(


Arguments against case two:

1.) there arent any.


Dr. Dovey actually said to me that he thinks Clayson screwed up and that I had absolutely no fluid in my band. The initial restriction was simply from the swelling after the operation and the fact that there was a band there giving some form of restriction. Also I was being a very good girl, eating carefully, stopping when I was full and taking my time, not drinking wine and not drinking with meals.


He now thinks I have 5 mls in my band in total from what he gave me.


If I count Clayson's fills I would have 12 mls in there or something, so you can see why I am worried that its not working or broken and that there is a leak!!!!!!!!


I think basically that I have to forget Clayson's fills, and only consider Dovey's fills. That means I have 5mls in there. Its a complete swine because I thought I was so much further along the line. But I am going to run with it.


Just to put my mind at ease, I have booked a Fluoroscopic fill with Dr. Dillemans in Brugge on 27th November. I am hoping that this will allay my fears, restore my faith in the band, and then I am going to SO HAVE A GO AT CLAYSON! I will be wanting my money back actually. And my petrol money for the 5 hours drives there and back. Yes, I think so...


I am going to try and consider that I have just had my operation, and now I am on the way to being restricted. 5 mls is not a lot, and most people need 6 or 7 mls to get good restriction... but guess what? Dovey said my next fill is Free!! Ha ha. I wonder why that is... maybe they know the other guy was RUBBISH.


So In 4 weeks I will have another fill anyway under fluro, so things should start to shape up.


I am also taking myself in hand and not drinking whilst I eat, and am not going to eat junk like takeaways and stuff. I am also not going to have any more wine, as I don't think its helping at all.


The morning before my fill on Saturday weighed 17 stone 12 pounds. This morning I weigh 17 stone 6 and 3/4's. I have done 2 days of fluids granted, but it makes me feel better.


I got down to 16 stone 4 before all this crap.


My next target is 15 stone 13 and 3/4's.


I know I am making progress when I hit that! I know its a far off target, but I think it has to be. anything less will be an empty target as I have been there so many times before.


I am also going to dob that slimmingworld Pig in. MWA HA HA HA HA
