Hi Peta

Welcome to the board
Yes I suppose that a lot of people might read your post and wish there were your weight, but everyone here has issues with their weight so it does not matter if you have 10kilo or 5kilo to lose its YOUR weight to lose..everyone here is doing well on the reds but the fact that your only going to be on them for a month is going to be tough, if you want to get back to the pre baby weight of 50kgs that is way to much to try and lose in a month, (22.3kgs), so instead of setting yourself up for failure, my adive is to set yourself realistic goals for the month ... the normal weight lose on the tablets according to the experts is 1 1.5kgs a week, yes a lot of other people here lost more me including but I had a lot more to lose than you and I do believe the more you have to lose the faster it comes of in the first month as a lot of it is fluid..

You have taken the first step to reduce your weight so be proud of that.. I have to say in my case the tablets worked well for the first month ( im on them now 7 weeks) now they are starting to wear off, but its more will power now for me,

My adice to you is to go for it but dont be to hard on yourself either, I cut everything out first month but have slowly reintroduced some things back becuase you just cant live on rabbit food for the rest of your life , so take one day at a time, and try and eat more low fat food after your month on the tablets..

Remember you have to have will power and starting the tablets for me gave me the kick start I need..

P.S Drink lots and lots of water
Hope this helps

A

Good Luck

Hi wallea00, hi adam weighed in and well lost nothing this wek. So my 6kg has spread over 6 weeks instead. Still I have not gained could be worse. A neighbour noticed yesterday (not seen her in ages) so that felt god. And I can't keep my sweat pants or favourite trousers up anymore. Think i can sacrifice the trousers ha!! Hope next week better, have lost track of TOM as I've been concentrating so hard on the weight. Hope this is why I've not lost any. Good luck , 70kg now so 60-63kg is still the goal !!!

Hey Peta (:
I can relate to how you're feeling! I'm also around the same age. I had been a steady 50kg also, for quite sometime, until I put on a some weight slowly at the end of last year. But then gained a huge amount of weight around march to june. Which brought me to 69kg I have now been on reductil just over a month and have lost around 7 kg.
With the all the exercise that you're doing it sounds like you won't have a problem getting to your goal weight!
I think this is my last month that I have reductil for and would really like to lose 10kg. - I'm doing the same sort of exercise routine as you.
Hope reductil works for you! Let me know how you're going. Good luck.
- Addie (:

Hello My names Peta im 19, i weigh 72.3 kgs my orriginal weight was 50kgs before i had my son. I bought my first packet of REDUCTIL 10MG today and hope that it will help me shed the kilos before christmas I go to the gym everyday and do cardio and every 2nd day i do cardio and weights for body tone i spend 2 hours a day in at the gym and i have a food adiction i cant stop eating i can eat what a average person will eat in one week and i will eat that in one day so im hopign that the tablets will help me with my eating disorder and stop me from eating so much i want to be fit for my son it wont be long until hes up and running arround, Im sick of being fat and sitting on the lounge eating myself to death i know there are some of you who may be alot bigger in the 100 + range and are probably reading this and laughing at me wishing you were my size but ive never been bigger then 50kgs and it has made me feal like i want to jump of a bridge and the only thing that keeps me here is my son i know he needs me so ive been reading some of your messages and your weight loss and i would like to know if there is anyone out there the same size as me who lives the same sort of lifestyle who has shown good weight loss in only one month it was so hard getting this medication but with a little convincing i got it so i think one month is all i will get thankyou for reading hope to hear from you all soon and congratulations to those who have lost the weight. cheers Peta

hi!
Thought id post today seeing i wont be on tomorrow...
For those whom dont know im on the 15mg tbls and have been since sep 28th 09

SW 118/120
CW 103.6kg
GW 85/90kg

in my experience, reductil worked great for the first 3 weeks; well it was apparent/obvious that it had an obvious effect. Now, that obvious apparent effect has mellowed out,but in saying so im not suggesting that its not working, as i havent stopped taking it so i wouldnt be in a position to pass judgment... considering im still losing weight must be testimony but again this has alot to do with me wanting to lose weight. i need to blend the willingness to want to lose weight, thus eating accordingly
good luck 2 u all

The ultimate measure of a person is not where they stand in moments of comfort and convenience, but where the stand in times of challenge and controversy.

Hi Larien

yea been busy myself could not get on, haven been haven a hard time being good and trying to lose weight over the past two weeks , in saying that I havent put any on either,
WOW 11.5kgs is a great weight loss for 6 weeks im down 9kilos and struggling but im going to keep going, going into hiding the next two weeks no partying for me haha...

Been Hard I have to admit the 15mg are just the same as the 10mg I dont see any difference now at first just very thirsty but not now.. back on track, find that when I wasnt posting on here, I was getting a bit lazy so it really does work I find...

Still another 11kilo to go but its better that 20kilo :-)

Mind over matter and lock the fridge door is my motto this week.

Keep in touch

Hi Hillychick

Yya im in the same boat only people who notice is the people who knew I was on a diet, but the main things is that you notice!! feel better in yourself as well, Its all about you feeling good and not what others see. I find when I feel good I look better,, dont give up now, I have had a hard two weeks but if we all stick to it together we will get there, two more weeks left in the month, lets see how well we get on..

Hi wallea

Well I have decided to go back gym later, although cant do as much as i have fecked up my knee.. I have also decided to use mind over matter and go back to the first day that I started the reds and how low I was feeeling and how far I have come since then and look at the next two weeks as a fresh start, forget all about the last two weeks and try be postive.. so from now untill the end of the month its 13 days lets see together how well we do... lets aim for 5lbs and see how we can do that is 2.2kilos... dont weigh in untill the end of the month and see how we get on, are you on for that???......

Hey everyone

I am on reductil 15 just finished my first month's supply and i have lost 7.8 Kilos i dont really do heavy exercise just general everyday walking. I have however changed my eating habits alot i eat fruit for breakfast ,lean protein with salad for lunch and lean protein with either salad or steamed vegies for dinner. I have cut out most of my carbs like bread , rice, if i have vegies i will have 1 steamed potato and thats it. As Vegies and salad still has carbs in certain foods so i am still getting low levels of carbs. I am noticing that my clothes are getting lose and i now have to wear a belt with everything to hold them up!! I refuse to buy new clothes just yet as i have a long way to go..

But Good effort to everyone losing weight!!

Hi wallea00, in almost 6 weeks I've done no gym at all. Can't be bothered, no motivation and to be honest not got the desire or energy. So you not the only one, in saying that I'm down 13 lbs and no-one has noticed! Not even my husband ! Am I glad I told no-one I'm on a "diet"

Hi k maree, you are doing brilliant, it took me 5 weeks to get to 6kg, 4.5kg is still a lot of weight in a month, and anyway you want it to stay off. Might sound great to lose loads quickly but that's when it easier to put it back on. Chin up better off than on !!

Hi maryamami

When my doctor prescribed me the reds she said the best kind of things to eat was low fat high protein meals with a high fibre breakfast..so for example..most days ive been having weetbix with skim milk for breakfast, a peice of fruit for morning tea (if im hungry, which im usually not) Lunch is a salad with any type of meat such as chicken or ham, and dinner is usually a peice of meat with no fat on it and steamed vegetables. Also drinking lots of water.

Ive been trying to stick to these kind of foods but have slipped up here and there adding rice or lots of bread or skipping breakfast..I must admit I havent been doing much exercise I just cant seem to get motivated, but I have two friends who have been encouraging me to come walking with them so ive started that.

Good luck with your weight loss 3kg is a good result =)

hi everyone, just got back from the doctor today after finishing my second box of 10mgs i lost 4.5 kilos this month...im alittle dissapointed with myself though because it should have been a loss of 6 kilos but i had a drink on saturday night and the next day i had gained 1.5 kilos! i thought it was fluid or something but i worked my ar$e off for the last three days and yea...it didnt budge! the doctor is still really pleased he said 4.5 kilos is great(i guess its just because i knew it could have been better) so he gave me a third box! im going to work so hard this month!

Hi Ada
Yep I know how you feel, because I am there with you. It is so hard! I lost 0.3 this week but in saying that I had a huge weekend as well. Its the exercise that I am failing at, and I just can not seem to get motivated to do it. I just hate exercise!

Every week I tell myself that I am going to exercise and then do nothing. How do people have the motivation?

hello again maryamami,
no problem! well any sort of exercise is good, if you start doing a little more exercise everyday even if it's a couple of mins more than usual & so on.. you will soon start to feel fitter! :)
with the food thing, you should definitely be eating breakfast it fuels you and you concentrate a whole heap better. have grain toast, or eggs (not fried). if you find you're hungry in between breaky and lunch have a piece of fruit or low fruit yoghurt. for dinner maybe try having it a little earlier, if you can.. just because your metabolism slows down as you are not doing anything and getting tired.
it sound like you're doing really well already! all the best for your next weigh in! :D
