Anyone going to try it?

LOL... the manufacturer’s suggestion to “wear dark pants” and “bring a change of clothes with you” has deterred me from trying it.

But it can also result in what the manufacturer describes as loose stools and gas with an oily discharge. “It’s probably a smart idea to wear dark pants, and bring a change of clothes with you to work,” the drug’s official website says. (The drug maker’s literature and website say side effects can be minimized with a low-fat, reduced-calorie diet.)

No thanks

What are treatment effects? alli™ works by preventing the absorption of some of the fat you eat. The fat passes out of your body, so you may have bowel changes, known as treatment effects. You may get: * gas with oily spotting * loose stools * more frequent stools that may be hard to control What to expect The excess fat that passes out of your body is not harmful. In fact, you may recognize it as something that looks like the oil on top of a pizza. Eating a low-fat diet lowers the chance of these bowel changes. Limit fat intake in your meals to an average of 15 grams.

You may feel an urgent need to go to the bathroom. Until you have a sense of any treatment effects, it's probably a smart idea to wear dark pants, and bring a change of clothes with you to work You may not usually get gassy, but it's a possibility when you take alli. The bathroom is really the best place to go when that happens

After reading that, no thank you! :)

It sounds as though one has to be very cognizant and disciplined in the amount of fat one injests or else they have some not so pleasant problems, but sure. If I am going to go through all the trouble to follow the sort of lower fat eating they suggest as I usually do when I am trying to lose weight why not do something that will help me lose up to 50% more atleast for a short time as motivation.

Overall though it is long term changes. I just find as one gets older even with massive exercise and correct eating it sure takes forever to lose 5 lbs or more and that can be very frustrating. I think that is why this would appeal to me IF I ever decided to use it.

Them main accomplishment though for me or anyone would be to stop the yoyo dieting that is so very detrimental to body and soul. Anyone else?
