Alli Works 
2008-10-06
I have been on Alli for 2 months now and I will say, IT WORKS. It's not the fast, dramatic loss that fad dieters are looking for. I've lost 13 pounds at this point and am thrilled with the results. The "treatment effects" are a not so gentle reminder to climb back on the wagon when you slip. And, FYI, you can't skip a day of pills and expect to go out and eat fried chicken (I tried it in week three and learned my lesson). Once it's in your blood stream, you really want to work hard at eating right. I'm hoping to take off another 15 pounds over the next 3 to 4 months with smart food choices, light exercise, and Alli.
I'm finally loosing weight!!

I am loosing weight, ALLI is a dream... it keeps you eating healthy or else... and obviously I need that or I would just loose the weight myself. But it also blocks the fat you digest and it has to go somewhere!
I will continue to use ALLI as a lifestyle change, until I know I don't need it anymore. Until then, happy weight loss for me.
What really works about this system? 
2008-10-03
Alli is a very questionable product. How effective are the pills versus the entire system is the question. The system consists of a diet, which alone would make a lot of people lose weight, and the pills, which knock only 100 calories off your total if you follow the diet.
And, the key word is "diet." The instructions instruct you to eat 3 meals with at most 15 grams of fat. I know a lot of people who would lose weight if they made this change alone. So, again, what's really working? Do you really need these expensive pills that, when they work, cause oil to be excreted in the stool?
Essentially if you consume the small amount of oil that is excreted, you lose the full benefit of the product.
The most helpful part of the system is that in the starter pack come very handy booklets of information such as healthy choices at fast-food and dinner restaurants. It makes it easy to make the choices, but as a guy, I don't have a purse to carry these booklets, and they're too big to fit in my pocket.
I think the real power behind this system is the close attention that the user must pay to what he or she is eating, not the pills. To those who say it does work, you need to ask yourself how much those expensive little blue pills actually do apart from what you do.
Best I've tried

I have taken several weight loss aids over the years, and this has worked beautifully. The plan really helped me to focus on what to eat - it is a simple plan to follow. 8 lbs. & counting!
Great Product, even though side effects are bad

I have been using Alli for the past two weeks and it has worked great!! I have lost ten pounds so far. I have had the side effects, but I just wear an adult diaper to eliminate the embarrassment and the extra laundry. Wearing an adult diaper is more discreet than messing your pants in public, as long as you change as soon as the accident occurs, which is why the diaper is better than the disposable underwear.

Alli is the only FDA approved over-the- counter weight-loss aid for overweight adultsAlli is more than a pill; it's an innovative weight-loss program that includes an individually tailored online plan that teaches people healthier eating habitsAlli binds to gastric and pancreatic lipases blocking absorption of 25% of consumed fatUndigested fat is excreted from the body instead of being turned into fatAlli, in combination with a reduced calorie low fat diet, can help an individual lose 50% more weight than with dieting alone
Definitely like it. I lost 15 pounds in 2 months.

It works great. But it's still a myth how to get it work for me because my first experice with Alli was not successfull. I took it for over 1 month but hardly see any change. Then I stoped for a couple of month until I decided to give it another try this summer. This time, I work together with the online Myalli program and look into the chatting board to learn from others' experience. Somehow it works and I am so exciting to see my weight off 15 pounds in 2 months without doing extra execrises. I feel healthy and never have any trouble with my heart or stomach. There is no longer pains to stand on a balance and I like it so much.
I don't know why it didn't work the first time. Maybe what I ate didn't match the way how the pills work. One thing I learned from the chatting board is that you need to reach the daily target of calories and fat. If you eat too little, Alli doesn't work either.
The side effect is annoying but it's worthy. I would recommend it to anyone who is willing to establish a way to eat. I believe after I stop taking the pills, I can keep my weight or even continue to lose some with the current diet that Alli teaches me. The online program is also a great help that you can easily check your daily intake of calories, fat, all kinds of nutritions, etc. It also gives you low fat reciepts and the chatting board is a good place to look for more practical advice and help.
very embarrassing

After taking the pill for about 2 days I noticed it working. Boy did I ever- Its true instead of your body absorbing all the fat you ingested it passes it through your body to the toilet. Problem is you might not be ready for that. I had 2 accidents while on alli and they were while I was out and not able to get to my home quickly. I felt like I wanted to die since one time I was out with my husband and his best friend. Alli is good just as long as you have some depends on or plan to stay home.
it didn't work for me

THE ALLI PROGRAM HAS NOT WORKED AT ALL FOR ME EVEN AFTER THREE WEEKS. I HAVEN'T LOST ANY WEIGHT AND I NEVER HAD ANY OF THE UNPLEASANT SIDE EFFECTS.
I EVEN PURPOSELY ATE A HIGH FAT MEAL TO SEE IF I WOULD HAVE THE OILY STOOLS, AND NOTHING HAPPENED AT ALL. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED AND FEEL THAT IT WAS A BIG WASTE OF MONEY.

I was very optimistic about using this product. However, I lost nothing except money.
