Is any one out there using alli? I am and was wondering how others are doing. I am eating a good diet too and limiting my fat to less than what that diet recommends. Man, do you know it if you eat too much fat! For me, it is not to bad but just a reminder if I do.

  • My doctor suggested it and when I looked at the side effects I declined. My mother-in-law takes it and has lost zero pounds! Plus...she had an evil discharge until her body adjusted to it.

    Fat doesn't make you fat, so I don't see why people are jumping on the low-fat bandwagon again. What's better for you, 200 calories of a peanut butter sandwich, or 200 calories of white bread? (Hint-not the white bread. :wink: ) I don't see a point in subjecting yourself to the side effects when simple caloric reduction will work just as well.

    I tried Alli, my Dr said go ahead, but nothing happened, I didnt lose anything, I even tried to eat more fat than I was suppose to, and nothing happened, I think its no more than sugar pills

    I agree with songbyrdsweet. I think it's a waste of money. Eat less=lose weight, it's very simple. All you need is a caloric deficit. that's it. really! :flowerforyou:

    Ooh, you are brave. I read the book and decided if I have to pack an extra pair of pants for work in case I poop myself, I will pass on that diet pill. :sick:
