hello, I started the same day as you as well, I need to loose 35 pounds, I weigh 178, and I have in my early 40's and 5.3...I hope to god this works...Have you started exercising?  I walk around the block twice a day.....no treatment effects yet? Have you?

 

Day 2.  No treatment effects except for some gas.  I'm on the 1800 calories a day and didn't quite get the whole calories in but I didn't eat more fat then I was allowed.  Wasn't too hungry except for the nighttime but I couldn't find anything to eat that was fat free so I didn't eat anything at all.  So far so good.  Today is dinner at Red Lobster but I have my books and I know what I can eat so it shouldn't be a problem.

I also bought my kit at Walgreens on June 14.  I took my first pill at dinner that night.  I am 48 yrs. old weigh 147 and I'm 5'3". I'd like to get to 135-138 pounds.  I started losing weight about 6 yrs. ago.  I started at 183.5 lbs. and did weight watchers.  After losing 20 lbs. in six months I got stuck.  I stopped and tried again but no success.  I then tried Trim Spa and lost a little over 20 lbs.  Then I stopped.  I probaly was at 135-138lbs at that point.  Now I'm at 147 average and I can't drop an ounce, AT ALL.  Plateau at this weight for over a year. Yes, I work out, walk ride my bike and I'm going crazy!!! I'm sick of watching what I eat and drink and excersizing and NOTHING.  I've seen ALLI advertised and thought I'd give it a try.  I've tried everything over the counter and NOTHING works.  I hope this does.  Last night had a bachloette party and had pizza, fried calamari etc.  I shouldn't have but it was preordered and nothing I could do.  I've just started yesterday seeing the side ffects.  Not too bad, I'm sure today will be worse because of what I ate last night.  So today I'll be on track again and hope for the best.

 

Anyone can help me it would be great.  I'm really desperate at this point

 

Good luck to all!!

Down 6 lbs as of Sunday morning!  No side effects either.

bsmith404: Hi. I'm also 5'6" and I'm 173lbs. I've had 3 kids but there are 10 years in-between the first two. I'm excited about being more conscious of what I eat and making better choices. And, I want to lose my baby belly and get down to 155 for starters. I find it tough to work excercise in so I'm initially just focusing on the new way of eating and just trying to work in little things like taking the stairs at work. Good luck to everyone!

Hi, I started the 14th at lunch. Ive been on South Beach Diet for 3 mos so was already eating healthy and didn't need to change anything before taking the pills.  I already lost 28lbs on SBD but am looking forward to losing about 60 more with the help of Alli.  Today is my 4th day and I'm feeling good. A little stomach discomfort a few times but I have been so constipated on SBD that the Alli had been a godsend for that lol.  I am down another lb today, so 29 total so far. I did notice a few drops of oil in the toilet this morning so I know it's working!  I am from San Diego CA, good luck to all of us!

I am keeping to this as well and can't wait until we can post our own defined foods... Guess they are still getting the bugs out ... so many signing on.  Last night I ate at the local Original Roadhouse Grill.  Be real careful boys and girls ... the web site has info and I was blown away when I came home and added the fat calories .... Thank God I had only tiny fats throughout the morning.  I will research the restaurants I can in advance now.  NO symptoms,  Can I have an AMEN.  I am 5'8" and started at 195 and today I am at 193.  I also attend OA meetings and the camaraderie there is great. I have not told anyone except my family to keep me balanced emotionally with this as I make a good start.   Finishing commitments is hard for where food is concerned ... obviously.

HI, Glad to have the support.  I am 55, 5'4", 173 lbs.  Hope to get to 140.  Have been carrying this weight too long.  Started pills with dinner on 15th and have had no side effects.  The only thing keeping me from eating is that I have spent so much for the pills and also afraid of side effects.  Hope we can all do it this time.  I have NEVER in my life been on a message board like this but maybe this will help.  Good Luck to everyone!!!

so far i have lost two lbs. no difference in the bathroom. it is  like the pill they give people who need to stop drinking that makes them sick.....i take my alli and then i think "do i want to eat all of that or do i want that" Even though i was on a low fat diet, i was still eating more fat than i realized. Alli makes you make the right choices or you pay the price. it is about behavior modification as much as anything. if we would follow the diet and exercise guide we would be just as well off. i like most of you cannot seem to do that on my own, and for that i am glad to have my alli.

I've lost 4lbs since I started on June 16th.  I'm so happy.  The treatments effects have been practically nil.  The only problem I'm having is not getting the whole allowed calorie and fat in each day.

lets keep this thread going ... we are the beginning people .... let's not lose touch ... I checked in and many of the bugs are getting solved.  I lost 2 to 3 pounds last week !!

Hi all, I have not lost ANYTHING, not sure why! Anyone else in my boat?  Maybe it will show up in time.   Thanks for the support.  When I want to eat I just get on the message board to get my mind off of food.
