Alli?

sallywilson06

Soo I don't take Alli and I have heard really horrible things about this product ie, the side effects are really bad... However I heard that if you can live with the side effects of it, it really works.. soooo Does anyone on here take it? Also how bad are the side effects?

I am not a person that can take a pill daily and I more than likely will not ever take it, it was just a little discussion I was having with my sister and I wanted to know other peoples take on it... Thanks

i used it- some people said they crapped their pants but i never had any problems like that. the biggest thing is it makes you get rid of extra fat/grease so just watching your intake of that should stop the poopy pants problem. i didnt see any results from it though so i stopped using it. its the otc version of meridia so if you ever used that and had results you would love it

I just started taking it two weeks ago. I am not having extreme side effects. While things are a little "looser" I am doing very well. I have lost about six pounds so far. I just watch my fat intake according to the alli site I should have 60 grams of fat a day or 19 grams per meal. So that I don't suffer the side effects I actually try to have 16 grams per meal.

I've only used the Acai berry and Cleanse before but never had too many side effects. I can't take too harsh of supplements because I get jittery and a crazy caffeine buzz from it then crash. I heard from recent people while on Alli you get some sort of orange leakage which is basically the fat that you intake.. is that right?

I am not a person that can take a pill daily

That rules out birth control and any pills you might have to be on as time goes by. I have to take 4 pills every day, but I'll never try Alli because it is so expensive.

Also, SallyWilson06, may I just say that although your "fat"
picture is just a head shot, I find it hard to hard to believe you need to lose 50 lbs. I bet in 30 you will be super happy with how you look.

hi, I took this for about 6 months. Over here the doctor can give you the alli at 120mg strength and it goes under the names of "ORLISTAT" or "XENICAL". Basically if you overeat on the fat in food you will pass it through. It teaches you what you can and can't eat where fats are concerned. I lost 3stone in 6 months and yes you do get loose orange coloured stools but its nothing you can't get used too. The worse side affect for me was silent smelly farts lol!. For every 2lb you loose the alli can take off another lb. I have started using it again in the last two days as I want quick positive results. Just make sure if your'e gonna have a curry or fish and chips that you are near a loo! lol.xx....:)

ps. you need to take the pills 3 times a day with food. xx:flowerforyou:

I have never been on birth control due to blood clots my doctor will not let me take it. My "fat picture" is just one that I uploaded, I don't really have that many pictures of myself so I just used this one. I am currently around 191-193 depending on which day of the week it is. I want to get into the 140's-130's to be healthier.

I've mostly heard negative things about it, so I was never tempted to try it. It looks like some people are finding it useful, though.

Here's what's ironic about it. You NEED to supplement with vitamins and fat since it also absorbs those and will expel them. So you have to eat fat (since it's essential) and because this pill gets rid of it..................................

FYI, no pill works in the long run. Most bodies don't like to lose fat at a fast rate. The reason is because when you hit your goal and do maintenance, then your body thinks it still needs to save the same amount of fat and a person usually ends up "doubling" the fat when they eat normally. In other words your body is going to want to gain weight back to what it was because it thinks it needs too. Exercise and slowly changing from losing to maintenance is the only proven method. The real goal, after losing weight, is keeping it off. Alot of people find they gain their weight again if they aren't paying attention to their bodies afterwards, which is easy to do after all the hard work. It is important talk to a doctor before trying anything including diets or pills.

I plan on doing it the old fashioned way, Eating right and working out.

Being told there is a possibility of anal leakage that 'looks like pizza grease'...Kind of puts me off. I don't care if it gives me perky ta-tas, a brand new Benz and washboard abs. If I have to wear a pantiliner because my tookus leaks sporadically... Im not gonna feel attractive, regardless.

I tried Alli and it gave me greasy gas... it was totally gross and since I'm a teacher, it would have been embarassing to soil my pants like that.

I'm really curious about the OTC meridia. I've never heard of it. Where did you get it and what is it like?

^ This does not sound like a good situation to be in.

ABSOLUTELY NOT! This drug is not the OTC version of meridia. Meridia is a stimulant agent that was withdrawn from the market:grumble: .
