I believe it slows down your digestive tract, the pharmacists in work had some training on it and have told me some snippets, I've had constipation as the only minor side effect, but that's normal.

I still eat stuff, but more healthy stuff and I don't get that mad hunger in between meals where I could eat a sharing bag of crisps and chocolate bar pretty much every night.

I'm trying to shift another 2 stone and I'll be happy at around 14 and half stone.
