This is not going to make you look like Paris Hilton by tomorrow.If that's what you're looking for, see a psychiatrist rather than an endochrinologist!
This is not going to keep you from being hungry.There's plenty of junk on the pharmacy & "herbal supplement" store shelves for that.
What it will do, is mitigate some of the fat you eat.If you have an extremely low-fat diet, it will do nothing for you.If you have an extremely high-fat diet (i.e. an American) it will do lots.
My credentials:I've been taking doctor-prescribed Xenical for a several years now.I've recently switched to Alli, because it is the exact same chemical ingredient (Orlistat) at exactly half the dose, and is significantly cheaper.
My results:When I started, I weighed 320 lbs.I now weigh 240.Now, I can't give all that credit to Alli, because in the two years it took me to lose the 80 pounds, there were numerous other factors to consider.Mostly, changes in my medication for type 2 diabetes.But the important point is, there was no change in diet or exercise over that period.Makes it a pretty good success story in my book.
Point 1)All of the other diet drugs fall into a couple of categories.One of which is the "appetite suppressant" group.Means nothing to me, because I'm never fighting my appetite.I eat well (and, according to two diabetic dieticians, appropriately) so I seldom get so hungry I have to binge.I understand the phenomenon, (on the rare occasion I miss two meals in a row, I'm ready to main-line Sugar Pops) and feel truly sorry for those who experience constant hunger, but Alli won't help that.
The second group are the "Metabolism Stimulants".You want to take "uppers" to lose weight?You deserve everything that happens to you.It's not for me.And Alli won't help you with that, either.
The point is THEY ARE ALL DRUGS, by definition.They enter the bloodstream and work on some chemical or organ in some way. Problem is, you expose every cell in your body to every one of them.Side-effect galore.
Alli is not a drug.It never leaves your gastro-intestinal tract.Pie-hole to Hershey highway, no destructive stops along the way.The so-called side-effects are identical to the effects of particular foods.Sure, they are real, and maybe you can't live with them, but it's nothing compared to the potential damage from the other drugs & herbs.
So the point is that this food additive stands alone as a non-drug alternative to weight loss.If you're like me and are plagued by half the side-effects listed of about every drug on the shelf, then this (and insulin) won't hurt you.
Point 2)This will mitigate a high-fat diet to some degree.Literally can't live without some bacon in the morning?Some animal must die for you have eaten well?Think of butter as a beverage?Well, stage one is "don't eat like that".Once you determined that your quality of life is more important than the advice of the putz from stage one, move on to stage two.Alli's whole deal is to simply bind with the fat you've eaten and pass it through.So with no change in your diet, you'll be eating less fat.Period.It's tough to imagine a scenario where reducing the fat in your diet isn't a good thing.(Fat soluble poisons collected in your system?You're already Paris Hilton?Macrobiotic?O.K., then move on.Everyone else, line up.)
Point 3)As I said before, the side-effects do exist.With practice and good sphincter muscle control, you will be able to skywrite.Six-hour staff meetings are a thing of the past.In the worst cases, keep a spare pair of BVD's handy.(That one's right from the manufacturer.Believe them.)
Basically, if you've ever had a bowl of my chili, you'll be fine.If your fastidious about your "number two" habits, you might want to give it a miss.Oh, and don't miss a day.I believe the ballistic equivalent would be called a "sabot".I won't go into further detail here.Just trust me.
So, to summarize:
It won't help you with your appetite.
It won't affect your metabolism.
It will remove some amount of fat from your diet.
It will give you the green apple quick step.
It will help with diabetes.(Lowered my average blood sugar by 50 points!)
It will take time to lose weight.(But hey, I should be the "Jarod" of Alli.It does work.)
It will lighten your wallet.

I've been working really hard for a few months now - exercising, eating better, not eating after 8pm, taking supplements, etc. I added this supplement to my routine 2 months ago, and I do feel like it has boosted my weight loss.
