    I'm taking Xenical aka Orlistat. It's a higher dosage than what Alli is but generally the same thing. I will say, I just started taking them again as the first time around wasn't a pleasant experience. You do have oily discharge at times. It's not just oily but complete grease. And I say discharge because half the time it is NOT under your control. I actually had accidents for 3 days the first time around. First time I felt completely ashamed of myself in front of my husband. I don't take it three times a day either. Only once or twice when I feel I've had a somewhat fatty meal.

    To lessen this horrible side effect, you MUST eat less greasy/fatty foods. I will be using the last of my prescription, then never again. I am only using to give myself the boost I need for results. But that's it. I know the consequences of eating greasy food while on this so I won't touch it with a 10 foot pole. As for results, I'll let you know in a couple weeks.

    The average weight loss when using it is 1-2 pounds/week, which is the same as you'd likely lose just restricting your calories. Why bother?
