    Really Nervous

    I am really really nervous to try this. I just bought the pills last night, and I am planning on taking one for lunch and one for dinner. I have tons of panty liners in my purse cuz I am at work (I can go to the bathroom at time I want, easy to access). Here is my outline for eating:

    Breakfast:

    1% Milk-Instant Carnation Breakfast-Banana  Total of 4.5grams of fat (I don't think I need an alli pill, do I?)

    Lunch:

     Weight Watchers Smart Ones Creamy Rigatoni with Broccoli & Chicken 8 grams - Strawberry Applesauce 0mg - Propel Mix In 0 grams            Total of 8 grams of fat (Should I start taking alli with lunch?)

    Dinner:

    Not sure just yet

    Do you think I will have any treatment effects? I am nervous hahaha.

     SW: 217lbs

    Weight as of Aug 1: 211lbs

    GW: 150lbs

    Re: Really Nervous

     Hi and welcome to the alli family! *waves*  I'm Rachel. Don't worry.  There's no need to be nervous.  You don't usually have treatment effects unless you go over your fat grams for a meal/day.  I've been on Alli for over a month, lost 14 lbs, and have had no T. E.s  at all.  My goodness, that isn't anywhere near enough fat to take Alli.  Me thinks you must be deprogrammed. LOL.  We've all heard little to no fat is the way to go with weight loss but that isn't true, especially with Alli.  Check out Betty's post at the begining of the forum.  It will help you understand it a little better.  With the Alli plan you have a fat and calorie goal depending on your weight.  It seems like a lot of food (and a lot of fat.  Mine is 1800 calories and 60 grams of fat.) for the day but it keeps you from feeling hungry, keeps your body from going into starvation mode, and Alli blocks out most of the fat.  You really will lose weight.  This is the easiest way for me to lose and trust me, I've tried everything short of cutting it off.  I hope you stick with us and give Alli a try.  You'll meet a lot of wonderful, supportive people here.  Good luck and keep us updated.
