Ten years ago, I moved to another state away from friends & family. I "grew" from 150# to 225# in those 10 years due to the habit of not eating all day & then "chowing down" from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. in front of the TV.
I am now on the 3-Hour Diet (where you eat every 3 hours, duh, makes sense...), and have energy galore! I've lost 9# in only 5 days and am eating 1,600-1,700 a day. It's AMAZING how fast it has come off (don't worry--I realize this is just the initial water weight loss & it will slow WAAAAY down!). I am using Alli now to attempt to accelerate that weight loss on a LOW-FAT DIET!
If wasn't doing low-fat, I'd probably stay the heck away from these pills! But since I already was on it when I heard about Alli, I'm trying anything to stay motivated!
