| Hi adamkelly & wallea00, I,ve been on 15mg all along and have had the same symptoms as you all, not much difference. In one way glad it's coming off evenly so it might stay off. Definitely inches off had to take in buttons on 2 trousers. Tracksuits keep falling down and boobs feel a bit smaller. Happy with all that as I carry all my weight from hips up & don't seem to get too big on the bottom. Crazy weekend ahead, 2 dinner parties and a family party. Wish me luck ! |

Hi All, Its weigh in day for me today. I have lost a grand total of 0.5kg this week. How ever I was really naughty last weekend, so I think I was actually lucky to have lost even a little. I also still have my dreaded P and suffering from fluid retention.
I am on 15mg and have been on them now for 2 weeks. To be honest I havent noticed a huge difference. In saying that I havent been in the best dieting frame of mind this last 2 weeks. I am still going to keep plodding along. Atleast it is coming off, even if it is very slowly.
WEIGHTLOSS TO DATE - EXACTLY 6 KG IN 6 WEEKS
I would love to have lost 10kg by Christmas |

| Hi every1 keep going with the reductil they are fantastic they really work.Iv been taking reductil since july and iv lost 3 stone and am now at my target weight .Alright i have side effects.....At first i had a really dry mouth headaches taste disturbance and felt a bit dizzy but i stuck with it and they subsided i still suffer from constipation but laxitives are working. I didnt diet or do shakes as i didnt want to restrict my life or deprive myself too much. I didnt want to be craving any foods that i love like carbs. I have found that these tablets dont allow me too eat too much anyway . I eat what i like but just cut my portions. Iv also noticed that I just dont want to drink alcohol so that is saving me loads of calories. I know its hard when your getting side effects but keep going u will all see fantastic results..Goodluck x |

Hi Shank1, Im from Aus too and similar age to your daughter. What medication did the phsycologist supply? He shouldnt really be prescribing weightloss medication as he should be aware of her mental illness and legally should not be prescribing it to her because it sounds as though her BMI would be of healthy weight range. He has failed his duty of care to your daughter and has failed to provide basic accurate medical advice.
I understand exactly what you and your daughter are going through as I see it all the time with girls my age and experience it myself.
She needs to talk to another phsycologist, perhaps female as this tends to be an issue common amongst women. Usualy the constant desire for un-needed weightloss stems from a deeper issue as she will never get the self satisfaction she is looking for when losing weight as this is not the issue.
Be proud that you are a pro-active mum and have recognised her issues. Alot of parents would put it down to their childs age and not take any further action.
I know it sounds daunting but try calling beyond blue. They are a fantastic support group for people affected by mental health issues. Ive called them myself before because I was worried about a friend. They will provide you with so much information and people to contact within your area.
Good Luck! |

Hi I'm from Aust, I accidently came across this message board and I am reading that the people here are trying to lose weight and have been prescribed Reductil.
My 20 year old daughter who is not overweight, but is rather thin, has repeatedly asked her physcologist for *** a very expensive prescription that costs $109.00 Australian dollars, she has taken them for approx 15 months, but she has just come to realise they were too expensive and did not really work.
She is fanatical about weight loss, she is also on depression tablets and is always complaining of her weight even though she is pretty slim.
Sorry about my outpoor, I hope you all lose the weight that you want to achieve. Good luck!!!!!!!I just wanted to express my little grief, she is a handful. |

| I have been on Reductil now for 7 days no side effects feel really great , best thing is I do not feel hungry constantly. I started gaining weight about 15 years ago and it has balloned out of control to 115kgs. have tried all the diets, shakes etc. but the feeling of being hungry killed most of those. I now feel I eat better but much less. I need to get rid of weight as I need a double knee replacement and hope less weight may keep me off the table for a bit longer. Would really like to drop around 35kgs so will keep fingers crossed. |

Thanks heaps adamkelly (:
I'm feeling thirsty most of the time from these anyway haha.
Please let me know if you do feel a difference from the change to 15mg :D
I can definitely don't feel hungry from 10mg but was just curious about the difference between the too.
Thanks again! |

Hi Addisonwalton
Yea I have been on the 10mg for a month then changed to the 15mg on day 4 of the 15mg havent noticed a lot of difference as yet apart from mad thirst but they take a while to kick in, but I still have to say that to me its 50% tablets and 50% will power on the tablets, good look. |

Hi Larien
Did you have a nice time in Amsterdam? did you get any walking in at all :-)
Well for the constipation I find if I eat a very hot curry or drink Red bull ( they do a sugar free one) it works for me, sorry not much help but laxatives did not work for me either, go the chemist they might give ya something.... so when are you weighing in? Im afraid to get on the scales might venture on it on sat!!! be good,
A |

| Hi wallea00, thanks, I think I'll probably stay the same this week too but your right much harder with the 2 kids & hubbies around. I've dumped the rubbish this morning ALL IN THE BIN and am back ok today. Headaches I was getting last week were from genuine hunger so you have to listen to your body & eat at regular intervals. Apart from "sweetie" weekend , I'm doing ok too. Got 2 months script today. Hope that's all I need. Good luck |
