Name

I was on Alli for 2 and 1/2 years and yes I experienced the nasty side effect they warned us about, but I was able to control them for the most part and barely ever had "accidents". I lost weight and ate whatever I wanted for 2 years (yes even pizza and fatty stuff.) I more used it to eat whatever I wanted without gaining weight and while I did have the oily side effects, I could always make it to the bathroom in time and rarely had an "accident". I'm getting off of it now because it seems like it's not helping anymore and plus I am scared of what being on them for this long is doing to my body. Anyway...did not experience all the horrible things everyone else on here talks about and it looks like I have stayed on it way longer than any one else it seems.

I was told that if you eat to much food with a lot of fat in it, you can get very sick.

O.K. I don't get it... If everyone is having all these serious medical issues/problems why isn't there a class action lawsuit yet. I also don't understand why the FDA would approve this and hope their reading comments people make. If not shame on them. I just started taking it a week ago. Yes I have the gas and soft bowel movements more frequently but nothing like the oily stuff; sounds nasty though. Maybe they've fixed their product; I don't know. I'll stick it out for another week and give an update.
