I'm new to Alli. Just bought it today. I've been following a pretty good diet the last 2 weeks. I took 1 pill today. I'm curious if anyone else started out with 1 a day? I'm nervous about "side effects" I've definitely been eating less that 15 g fat per meal but still very nervous since I've read numerous horror stories!

It took until about day 4 before I felt any difference with the pill. Before that I got a little bit burpy after taking the first one or two but nothing down there.... Then day 4 I just noticed the need to go number 2 more often then normal. Now I am starting day 6 and nothing horrible so far, even though I had a Valentines dinner out etc.
I actually found myself a little relieved when something started happening because I was afraid it wasn't working! Ha ha
I think most people it takes a couple of days to get things moving, but not everyone of course. We all have different ....transit...times.

So I'm very frustrated that I've only lost 2lbs in 4 weeks! I've been eating healthy and working out. I upped my Alli to 2 to match prescription strength orlistat. Still nothing! Now I'm on vacation and had a burger yesterday - OUCH! Well it may not be making me lose weight but I got the side effects. Going off of it until after vaca. Very hard to track while on vacation!

I was just about to ask you this morning how its been going. I had lost a couple lbs. as of two weeks ago when we talked about taking 2 pills each time. Now i've somehow gained them back. So basically nothing up to now. I am now out of the first batch of Alli and wondering if I even want to spend the money on another bottle...hmmm

I had just bought another pack. I planned on taking while on vacation and following my fitness pal closely. However, 1st day here in San Diego we went to a restaurant and all they had was "Linner" specials and the burger was the only meal on it. Never shat myself before! My husband, who never thought I should take these anyway, was like hmmm?! But at least we were back at our villa! I will resume after vaca but doubtful it is working!

Well, Mondays are my weigh in day. Last Monday was day after vacation and I gained a few ounces. I was happy with that. Yesterday, I lost those few ounces - so back to pre-vacation. I started with 1 pill a day and just now upped to 2. I'll let you know Monday. But I'm thinking they are sham pills! Except for when I sharted! Otherwise they don't appear to do anything! Will be sticking to diet and exercise hard though!
