Same info as the pamphlet

2008-07-06
This book said the same thing as the pamphlet that comes with the alli pills. It was a waste of money. It tells you to eat healthy and to exercise and you will see results...well duh!

Not just a diet, a healthy and DOABLE lifestyle change!

I wholeheartedly recommend both the diet and this book--the materials that come with the starter pack are not nearly as comprehensive. I set a goal of 25 lbs. weight loss and I'm within 15 lbs. of being there, having started the diet in mid-Nov. This is much, much more user-friendly and easier to stick with than South Beach Diet, and yields tons more progress than I got on the Abs Diet for Women. I also HIGHLY recommend the Alli Cookbook for long-term success on the program--250 pages of recipes, many more than you get in this "overall" book. Great book, great cookbook, great online support, great overall diet plan!!!

tasty recipies!

2008-01-09
I first thought this book was a waste since alot of the information was redundant. Then I tried some of the recipies and loved it. Alot of tasty recipies that make you feel like you are eating healthy without sacraficing a great meal with great taste. I altered some recipies to my own taste while still keeping it low fat. My family has no idea on how much healthier they are eating!

some good recipes

Even though the pills did nothing for me, the recipes are pretty good in this book and I do use some of them.

Save Your Money

I was hoping to find definitive information within this book. However, it was not to be. It really didn't list any new information than was offered by the instruction booklet that comes with the pills. In fact, it appeared to just be a PR device for the product. What a disappointment. Save your money.

Alli- Finally-a diet aid that works!! 2007-08-09
I'm one of those people that has a very slow metabolism so in the past I've had to nearly starve myself to loose any weight. I've been on alli for almost 5 weeks and have lost 9 lbs. That's a great accomplishment as far as I'm concerned because I LOVE to eat, especially ice cream! The diet, low fat, is fairly easy to follow however grocery shopping and taking the time to check out the contents of items takes a bit longer than I like. Fortunatlly my support system is GREAT! My husband is behind me 110% although he loved me as I was...but I didn't. I like the responsibility alli takes in communicating with me, reminders, etc. I have a bit more to loose but the future is looking great. My advice; 'Try is you'll like it."

An excellent addition to your Alli Diet Plan 2007-08-07
Yes, the starter kit includes cards which have some of the same information contained in this book. I still think the book is a great asset, as it is far easier to find the exact chapter you need, whether it is starting a walking or other exercise plan - or simply planning meals, with tons of recipes included in Chapter 6
Other benefits of this book include:
A Detailed explanation of how Alli works

Explaining each of the three phases of the diet as well as menus for each phase

Teaching people how to stick to the plan and still eat out

Exercise

Recipes which are LOW in fat, minimizing the unpleasant side effects of taking too much fat while on this medication.

The alli Diet Plan

I have been using the Alli product for a month and have lost 11 pounds. This book is a great asset to have, it helps with the hard to find recipes and has helpful hits along the way. It also talks about how to maintain your weight when you have lost the pounds you wanted. A must read for all Alli users

Book really a way for Alli to get more people to buy their pills. 2007-07-11
It seems to me that this book is an attempt to corner the profitable "diet book" market, and while doing so encourage the readers to also purchase their even more expensive diet pills. If you already have these pills, then like the others have said, you really don't need this book. If you don't have the pills or the book, I would highly recommend that you don't waste your money on either. The pills are actually just an expensive way to give yourself explosive diarrhea, if you haven't already heard about this...Just Google the words (Alli the diarrhea diet) and see what you get.
