KforKitty is on a distinguished road

In 5 months of taking orlistat the only side effects I have encountered is more gas than is normal for me and occasionally having more frequent bowel movements with loose stools (all manageable). I've never had any 'leakage', no oily discharge, no sudden urgency. I've also lost 41lbs whilst taking this medication and following a low fat, reduced calorie diet. The most important factor in my weightloss I believe is the change in diet, not the medication. I believe its helped me with a speedier weightloss, nothing more.
