Well, over the summer I and my mechanic decided to start taking ALLI. I bought a scale and brought it to work so we could weigh ourselves 2 times a week. Over the summer I lost like 10 pounds and she lost 15.

This is what we did, the normal OTC Alli dose is half the prescription orlistat. So we took a double dose (2 pills) with each meal. It worked pretty well. The only thing you have to worry about is not eating something with too much fat because you will pay!! I pooped in my pants a couple of times this oily stuff when I ate too much of fatty foods. Also, when you think you have gas go to the bathroom because there is a good chance you will fart the oily discharge. Not fun at work!


All of that can be avoided by limiting your fat intake. So not only does the drug cause you to not absorb as much fat, but it trains you to not want fat so you don’t crap yourself. If you have constipation problems or pain when defecating because of hemmorhoids this will help you too because it comes out with little effort. Now, the pills are not cheap but you can order them online with a discount.

I have stopped taking them for a month or so but am going to start again this week. If you have any questions about alli let me know!!
