This year hasn’t been the kindest to our waistlines. Here is one way you can help to reduce your weight healthily and safely…

Lockdown has been hard on us all, and while the beginning of the pandemic had many of us working out, soon this began to die down. Boredom crept in and before we knew it, we were reaching for the comfort food. Without the option to head to the gym and with the uncertainty of going outside for long periods of time, exercise dwindled. If you now find yourself feeling unhappy or negative with your appearance and that the scales are tipping at an end that you are uncomfortable with, it’s time to do something about it. If you have tried the conventional methods such as working out and eating healthily yet nothing seems to be doing the trick and your weight is severely impacting your life, it is time to get in touch with a medical professional. If you are still feeling unsure about heading out to your local GP, then take a look at an Online Pharmacy like Oxford Online Pharmacy. They are a registered UK pharmacy and have a Good rating by the CQC.

One of the products they may recommend or prescribe if you are looking for a weight loss solution is Orlistat. Orlistat works to treat obesity by blocking a third of the fat which is digested by your body and stopping it from being absorbed. The dosage they will prescribe is one 120mg capsule three times a day, so after each meal. The product is available over the counter is a smaller 60g and is called Alli and Orlos, whereas the 120mg dose is only available on prescription. As with any weight loss program, it is best to take Orlistat alongside a healthy diet and lifestyle. The average weight loss is about 1lb a week, but the more weight you have to shed, the quicker you are likely to do so with the assistance of Orlistat.
