Alli is crap! It does not work! You will need to stay very close to a bathroom. I have taken it for three weeks now. Along with 1500 cal. a day, swimming, walking 30 minutes. I have seen no weight loss, nothing. Only GOD knows what this crap will end up doing to people. I hope the makers of alli buy them something to eat with all the money they have made off this stuff and choke to death on it!!!

Was told to try Alli by doctor even though I have hypothroidism for 25 years and am on Synthroid. I had to take Synthroid in the PM instead of the AM as recommended. I had trouble sleeping and heart palpitations. You can't take medications at the same time as you take Alli because your medication will not be absorbed as needed. Oh, and the ((treatment effects)), were so not worth it. I never even went over 10 to 15 grams of fat per meal. Pretty nasty!!

I took Alli last summer and did not lose weight, I gained. I stopped taking it, and lost 10 lbs. I started taking it again 2 weeks ago and now have such bad stomach pains, I'm wondering if it is diverticulitis. The pain is INCREDIBLE and it seems that my bowel movements are less and less. Is the oil clogging up the bowels?? I have just purchased colon cleanse in order to rid whatever is causing this pain and possible blockage. I contribute it to Alli since it is the second time I have taken it, and the second time the pain has come, but this time, it's worse. I would not recommend Alli for those who want to lose 20 lbs or less, unless you want to go to the hospital.
