This is my first week with Alli.  I have been exercising regularly for 1 1/2 years, and while I have toned considerably, I haven't had the weight loss that I need to really get myself in better shape and health.  I spoke with my doctor recently about my weight and she informed me that as long as I was eating fairly healthy and exercising that I shouldn't worry about my weight.  I really became discouraged.  I don't want to be overweight and I really want to be healthy...not just for myself, but for my family too.  I have probably lost the same 20 pounds over and over again for years!  

I chose to try Alli after reading about on the website...and didn't tell my doctor.  I am really hoping that I can be successful with it and loose the weight for good.  

I have enjoyed reading other's posts on these boards...it has been very encouraging for me.
