Experience of weight Loss drug - Alli

[pirate101]

Does anyone have experience of using Alli? If so, how did you find it in terms of side effects and did it help you lose weight? I've seen it advertised in Boots and thought it might be worth giving it a try; however, it's always worth asking for someone else's opinion before doing do!

Not sure I have used that; I did try one weight loss drug but I threw it away, since it made me feel rather peculiar, and anyway I realised that healthy eating and gradual weightloss are part of a lifestyle change, and that's the way to feel better about yourself, get fitter and lose excess weight...

I used it several years ago but I was prescribed it (orlastat) by the GP. I would GP to the GP first as it's very expensive otherwise.

It worked but it wasn't a good solution as I put the weight back on once I was off it. I don't think it was worth the hassle to be honest.
