What works for one person, may not necessarily work for another. I am a fine example of that! A girl I work with was taking Alli diet pills and raved about how great they worked. Although I couldn't see a bit of difference in her weight, she insisted she had lost a total of fifteen pounds in a little over a month. So, I went out and bought a bottle of the pills.
What I liked about the program is that Alli doesn't want to starve you to death. They want you to eat, but eat healthy foods in moderation. Which was fine for me. I like healthy choices. The plan encourages you to limit your choices of fatty foods or food that is high in calories. Not a problem.
First off, let me tell you that the Alli diet plan comes with an instructional booklet the size of the Bible! Who has time to read all of that? So, maybe my poor results were partly my fault. I simply do not have the time to read all the information that came with the pills. I didn't realize I would be asked to take a virtual course in the usage of the Alli diet!
So, for the results. I lost nothing but a lot of.......stool. There. I said it. I was under the impression that if I watched my calorie intake and avoided fatty foods, that I wouldn't suffer from the weird side effects I had heard about. I was wrong. This bottle of Alli was not playing around with me!!!!
The side effects that I had heard about were all correct. At least for me they were. Here's a little sample of what I, and many others, have endured with this product.
One important side effect that I, thankfully, did not have was anal leakage. But it's been reported to have happened to some of the users of Alli. (It has been reported that some users have had to wear several pairs of underwear while using this product!) How horrible is that? The side effects are bad enough that I quit using Alli after just a few days. NO WAY is losing weight that important to me! I have a life to live outside of the bathroom.
Under no circumstances would I recommend this product to anyone. The abdominal cramps that I encountered while using Alli were reminiscent of the cramps I endured during labor!
To be fair, I will note that I have had my Gall Bladder removed. I have no idea if this would cause my body to react to the drug in the way that it did, but for the sake of being completely honest I thought I would mention it.
