I started Alli in July 07. Here it is June 08 and I'm down 70 pounds!!!! I just can't believe it. Life has changed so much. I started out at 295 at the top of the 200's and now I am 225 and at the bottom of the 200's. Never thought I'd be here again. I had been living with the additude that this is how I am and I will just love myself as I am. Last July I decide OK one more try. I gave myself 1 year to loose at lease 40lbs. and I met that and surpassed it, all most doubled it. I just can't believe it. People don't treat me like here comes JULIE. I fit in the movie theater seat so much more comfortablly. I can sit in a plane seat and not have to ask for a belt extender and not feel like I am hogging all the room. I can drive the car and not have the steering wheel sitting on my belly. My husband and I snuggle on the couch lying side by side like when we were teens. Alli works people. There are times when it goes slow. You just have to hang in there. IT REALLY WORKS!!!!!!! 

Congratulations!  I always wished to be that person that didnt have to worry if I would fit in the restaurant booth, if the seat belt on the airplane would fasten, the seat at the baseball stadium be too tight.  I feel your joy!

We started around the same time, the beginning of July 2007.  I too am down 80 pounds, and cant believe I really did it!  I can wear size 10 jeans and go sleeveless this summer, and just feel so much more comfortable in my skin.

So continued success, and enjoy being the new and improved Julie

Congratulation to both of you.  You've lost a lot of weight and should be proud of your accomplishment.  You have reinforced the theory that Alli works for those who work with it.  You have to do your part and stay committed to the program in order to be successful.  Your testimony is an inspiration to those who are still struggling to reach their goals.  Thanks for sharing.

 I started Alli on July 31, 2007 and it was THE best thing I have ever done for myself. I'm with you, I'm fitting better in movie seats, plane seats, sporting even seats. I can walk far, run, do things I just couldn't do. It feels like a freedome to me.. I'm getting back to my old self. I'm down 65 pounds, and I can't even begin to imagine what it's going to be like when I loose the 50 pounds to go.

My friends can't keep up with me, and I get to finally tired THEM out. Althogh, my nieces... they still tired me out.. LOL.

I'm glad to hear that the July 07 starters have made some significant changes in their lives! 

Best of luck for continued success everyone!
