Has anyone out there tried Alli?

Haven't taken it myself but my friend does and like the comment above sometimes you have explosive results :laugh:

I thought about trying it, but decided to take the MFP route instead of being meticulous with eating exercise calories. I really don't have a lot of fat in my daily diet, and didn't want to deal with having to eventually stop taking Alli down the line. I figured it would be better to just find something that I could do my entire life instead.

I agree with this. I have done the "easy" route before and it just doesn't work for long term. I am not saying Alli won't work for some but for me I needed to learn a different way of living. I needed to teach myself about proper portions and about what foods would fuel me. I needed to get my butt off the couch and exercise. It's really a pretty simple combination of things when you think about it. I know it is harder for some but the slow and healthy way is the ONLY real way to go, in my opinion. This absolutely has to be a lifestyle change for it to be permanent.

Hello, I took Alli for about 2 months and I lost 5-10 pounds on it. I have to tell you that I was vigrously exercising for about 50 minutes a day for 6 days a week and in total I lost 20 pounds over a 3-4 month period. Everybody is right about the side effects though. If u take it 2-3 times daily everyday, u will for sure see the SE which include lot of gas (take gas-x) and anal leakage (very oily) to the point where it stained my underpants, I sometimes had to wear a pad... So i had to control the SE and I started taking alli as 2caps once per day while a skipping a day in between.

If u have a lot of fat in your diet, i really recommend taking alli, especially if ur like me... i eat a lot of junk food. it really helped me change my eating habits and at the same time it will helped me lose 50% more than i would with exercise alone.

i hope this helps... good luck
