Just a warning about so called cheat days... i had an awful day yesterday and went out to dinner and ate all sorts of crud... i knew ahead of time i was going to do this and didn't take ANY alli pills yesterday... and this morning i had a very minor incident... my first alli opps... to be blunt, i felt the need to fart, did so, and a tiny bit of greasy stuff came out when i did.. i immediently went to the bathroom and finished my business, mostly normal looking, but def big orangey droplets of grease too... sorry to be so discriptive, but wanted to let everyone know to be careful when "cheating" even if you dont take any pills that day.. i think it must stay in your system at least a little bit.  i learned my lesson and hopefully got at least some of my "cheating" out of the way.  at least now i know it actually works! before this i hadn't seen any symptoms or treatment effects in the least!  good luck everyone on reaching your goals!

That's good to know.  I've been wondering if it will stay in your system when you don't take it for a day.  Good luck!

In the starter kit it says that Alli stays with you for 48 hours!

what a way to find out if it works, lol. glad every is alright. i have had a little bathroom brakes also but i think they will pass in time with a little better eating. good luck to you!

THANKS for the WARNING!

Oh thank you!!!  I cheated today!  I took the pill at 4 and had an early dinner.  At about 8 tonight I figured it has worn off so had a bunch of potato chips thinking that I am safe.  Oh No!  I will stay home tomorrow for sure!!!!

Now I am scared because we are going on vacation next week, staying at an all inclusive resort in Mexico and wasn't going to take the pills while there...now I wonder how early I should stop takng them?

I had some Treatment Effects today after eating those darn potato chips last night!  Not bad though.  Just some orange oil in the toilet and rumbly stomach.

NO MORE Potato Chips!

I hadn't had any TE so I decided to put it to the test. I didn't go crazy, all I had was an extra serving of peanut butter. Never again. I know that your digestive tract usually takes about three days to digest and pass food. I would stop taking it at least that far in advance of a cheat.
