I have been researching the drug Xenical. It restricts 1/3 of the fat in the meals you eat from attaching to your body (unfortunately, all the fat comes out in your stool). I havent gotten it yet and was super curious to hear of others' experiences with it and if it has any reactions with Met. On paper it sounds great!

I took xenical when i was first d/x with pcos years ago. I lost 50lbs taking it. But woah let me tell ya the first week be careful where you are because sometimes that poo just sneaks up on ya with that stuff. I didnt mind it @ all. The one thing my familydidnt like was the greasy film it would leave in the toilet after using the bathroom. But if you watch what you eat and that that goes away. I basically lost that weight and learned how to eat better. But when i went off of them i ended up gaining the weight back slowly but it came back.

I took xenical for a month and I actually gained weight. I think the reason for that in my case was because PCOSers typically have a problem with properly using the carbs they digest, not so much the fat.
