Hey everybody I started a week ago tomorrow taking Alli. Im only 5'1 and rite now weighing 207. I started last Sept on my own and have lost 48lbs but hit a plateau, so Im hoping this will help...

Hey Congrats on the weight loss..i was seeing if you wanted to be online diet buddies. Our starting weight is about the same.........

Thank you, Yes that woud be great ....It will be awesome to have someone that understands what we are each going thru.... When did you start Alli? 

I too am just starting.  I am 28 and 168lbs at 5'2".  My goal is 125, but I would be happy at 130.  I started on Sunday 4/13/08.  I have 2 kids.  My daughter is 8 and my son is 18 months.  When I got pregnant with my daughter I was only 122.  The day I delivered her I was 152.  A week later, I was back down to 120.  And from there, I don't even know what happened... but I am sick of being too tired to take my kids to the park, or too tired to go with my husband anywhere.  Now, Changing the way I eat has been a lot easier than I thought.  Just in a matter of days I feel so much better.  I'm not tired, I look forward to my workouts every day... and I actually don't look forward to going to bed at night.  As before, I couldn't wait for my kids to go to bed so I can relax... now when 8PM rolls around I get kind of bummed.  I haven't had any TEs yet and hopefully I wont .. but I am looking foward to this whole process and meeting new people along the way.  Best of luck to all of you!!

hey:

I took my first alli pill today...I've been reading the booklets and and am very inspired...It would be nice to have a partner...I weigh 135 and would like to lose15 lbs...what are your goals?  I have already been on a low-fat diet for the last couple of weeks and have lost 6 lbs. but have read alot about Alli and thought I'd try it...Is there a mininum amount of fat we're suppose to consume?  I'll probably be like you and not eat enough fat...tell me what you've found out about all that...I'm very confused about the total calories that comes from fat...I've left a message on the message board but haven't heard back yet...I'm trying to stay around 1200 calories and 35 grams of fat daily...but I didn't know there was a minimum amt. of fat...anyway, keep it up and keep in touch...
