Is anyone trying the new diet pill called Alli?
Question:
Answer:
I haven't tried it and I don't plan too. It has lots of health risks (including oil-producing farts--ew!) and won't make you lose a lot of weight. To successfully lose weight, you need to make lifestyle changes (exercise more, eat healthily), not just take some "magic pill." It's just a temporary, unhealthy fix to a problem that won't work in the long-run.
No way! I don't care to have grease leaking from my butt, thank you! And I'm too young for Adult Diapers!
People actually spotted their clothes with uncontrollable anal discharges. Plus, Alli is just barely effective in clinical trials. Patients who took this drug lost about 1 pound a month. That's hardly any weight loss that all. That's the same amount of weight loss that you could experience simply by eating about a thousand fewer calories a week, which comes down to just a few cans of soda per week.
No, I firmly believe it's not possible to lose weight from a pill. But, good luck.
If you start, please start on your off day so that you are a where of how the loose bowels will affect you. Upon returning to work, bring extra underwear, cleaning cloth and wear dark pants. If you eat a kid's size McDonald's meal containing just the small fries and hamburger, you will need to stay in the bathroom most of the day because it has 38 grams of fat and you are to have less than 15 grams per meal.
All info:
Without Alli, if you follow their diet directions and exercise, you will lose weight.
They say that you can lose 50% more than the regular dieter. The reason they are allowed to say this is because people who dieted with Alli lost 5 pounds over several months and the people without using alli lost 2.5 pounds which is a 50% difference. According to Alli, you have to be commented to the following before starting:
- I am willing to do the hard work to LOSE WEIGHT GRADUALLY.
-I am committed to following a REDUCED-CALORIE, LOW-FAT DIET. (an average of 15 grams of fat per meal)
-I understand that if I take Alli with a meal containing too much fat, I may get TREATMENT EFFECTS, such as loose or more frequent stools, an urgent need to go to the bathroom, or gas with an oily discharge.
-I am committed to eating SMALLER PORTIONS.
-I am committed to making the time to be more PHYSICALL ACTIVE.
-I will READ AND FOLLOW the Alli label.
According to Alli, "If you agree with all 6 statements above, you may be ready for Alli. If you disagree with any statement, learn more at myalli.com
Best of luck.
My friend tried it for several days and is off already because of the oily bowel discharge and because she still could not control her eating intake.
Because Alli works on the digestive system and not the brain (telling you that you are full) she had a hard time sticking with it like any other diet.
According to a report, after discontinuing Alli, the patients put the weight back on.
Best of luck !
