Take orlistat during or within 1 hour after a meal that contains some fat (no more than 30% of the calories for that meal). Orlistat is usually taken 3 times daily. If you skip a meal or you eat a meal that does not contain any fat, skip your orlistat dose for that meal.

Don't use orlistat as you are breast feeding, any other drug is also not recommended for you as your baby gets 1% of it through breast milk. What you should do is: avoid sweets and oily food. Reduce dinner quantity to half. Do morning walking dailyfor an hour. You will lose weight and become an attractive lady. Good luck.

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have gone through the details given. However, I did not see any mention of important info like fasting & pp glucose and current hba1c%, dietary details, extent of daily physical exercise and bp as well as lipid profile.

Dear lybrate-user.
Do not use any slimming capsules or supplements. Consume low calorie diet and good dietary fiber enriched foods like green leafy vegetables, fresh fruits and use green tea with ginger but do not take it at empty stomach. Fried foods, junk foods, soft drinks and extra salt should be avoided. Eat skinless fish and chicken. Avoid butter and margarine. For weight reduction you should go for at least 1 hr brisk walk any time or swimming or dancing.
Thanks.
