I had great news today. I have been on Alli about 6 months and have lost about 20 pounds total. I am a real slow looser. My Cholesterol level was high when I had my checkup before starting on Alli (It was 225) and my Dr. agreed I could continue on my diet for 6 months and try to loose some weiight. Anyway, to make a long story short I had my 6 month lab work done last week and got results back today and hooray, my cholesterol is now 169. My good colesterol rose 18%, my bad dropped 50%. My Dr. was really thrilled and of course so was I. My chance of having a stroke of heart attack is only 2% now. I have 19 more to go and Hopefully I will be off my blood pressure pill soon. No cholesterol pills for me! Yeah!
