Alli Weight-Loss Aid, Orlistat 60mg Capsules, 90-Count Starter Pack

 (350 customer reviews)

I started taking alli 3 days ago and today was the first time I noticed anything different happening with my body. First, I had to go to the bathroom really bad after my breakfast+alli and there were floating drops of fat. Then, I cannot stop passing really nasty smelling gas, and I'm continuously afraid to pass gas for fear I will pass something more. However, seeing the fat come out kind of makes me happy. Fat is good for you, but I don't mind sending a bit of it down the shute. This experiment is pretty cool so far. And it does make me watch what I eat a little more. But make sure you don't just eat empty carbs now, you still need your complex carbs, your lean meat and your veggies and fruits. That's my goal. I know this is kind of gross, but it's an honest review from someone who is using this pill. I also checked out [...] for info about orlistat before starting. You should do it too. Especially pay attention to metabolism, interactions and adverse events.

Alli Weight Loss Aid / B000OWN65U

I've been faithful to a low-fat, low-calorie diet for over a year now, but the weight loss has been slow going - my family metabolism just seems to be *really* efficient and fights giving up every single pound. I would really like something safe and effective to help me along, and my doctor refused to even let me try any other weight loss pills on account that the stimulants could be damaging to a pre-existing heart flutter.

Alli seemed promising, though, so I thought I'd try it. I was a little concerned about the side effects, because they didn't sound, ah, *pleasant*, but I noted that the Alli literature said:

"Treatment effects can be lessened if you stick to reduced-calorie, low-fat meals that average 15 grams of fat per meal."

Well, now, that sounded a lot more promising. I track my diet religiously, and I know for a fact that I hit that bar every single day, so maybe the "lessened" treatment effects...Read more

Yes, this week I've been eating low fat, exercising 1.5-2 hours each day and watching the calorie intake. I also follow Weight Watchers.

Even though I did not pass the recommended fat intake per meal yesterday, I had an awful surprise this morning. Two changes of clothing and having to wear a maxi pad the rest of the day has me rethinking this diet plan. All of this trouble today for having used 1 tablespoon of olive oil in an entire dish of mostly vegetables and poached chicken last night? geez

I naturally eat low fat, but wanted an extra something to help get rid of this weight. I'm thinking now that this is not for me. Thank goodness I don't have a job and was at home.

Oh and I had to clean the chair I was sitting in as well...keep that in mind before using this product.
