Default Alli, A new weight loss revolution!

Alli is the new FDA approved over the counter diet pill. I know there
are many out there skeptical of diet pills, but this one is
different. First of all its the first and only approved by the FDA.
Second of all its not being promoted as a "magic pill". You will need
to maintain a balanced diet and be more active for it to work. Its
more of a boost that helps you lose more weight, up to 50% more as a
matter of fact! If you want to read more about alli you can go to the
website below

I also have created a group just for current and potential alli
users! Check it out!

http://groups.google.com/group/alli-...-program?hl=en

Please feel free to join the alli group! Im trying to get a support
group going for all alli users with questions and comments!

The FDA is nothing but a sham agency in the pocket of pharmaceutical
companies.
They'll approve anything they are paid to approve and go after anyone
(ex cherry farmers who couldnt say their antioxidents prevented
disease). Go figure.


First of all its the first and only approved by the FDA.



Lots of diet pills are approved by the FDA, its just that this is one
marketed for over the counter use. Isnt DexaTrim in that category
too,
oh but not 'approved' by the FDA? Its been sold over the counter for
years, as are many diet supplements that are not controlled by the
FDA
(yet).


Second of all its not being promoted as a "magic pill". You will
need to maintain a balanced diet and be more active for it to 'work'.



Duh. Diet and exercise works everytime. Even without your stupid
pill.

as a matter of fact!



Yeah if you want to poo your brains out - symptoms are similar to
Olestra that give you an upset stomache, diarrea, gas, bloating etc
based on how much fat you eat. It doesnt resolve your eating habits
at
all. Well, unless being scared of a bathroom blowout curbs them!
This product says its stops your body from absorbing a percentage of
the fats you eat, yet if you know anything about fats, its not how
much you consume of them, its what kind that matters. Healthy fats
are
good for you.

Blah! Just another scam to rip of the desparate. (oh but it
'works'!) :-P

I just don't get all the hype. Alli blocks about 1/4 of the fat you eat.
Today I ate 43g of fat. If I was taking it, it would have blocked about 10g
of fat, or about 90 calories. This is such a small amount, I don't see how
it could have a significant impact on weight. I guess if you ate a
tremendous amount of fat, and the majority of your calories came from fat,
it would work. But my personal weakness is carbs! Do they have a pill that
blocks that?

if you maintained your exact diet for a year and saved 90 calories a
day compared to normal you would lose nearly 11 pounds.
