If I am on a very low fat diet, how effective will Alli be?

atlanta sedeno asked:


I’m on a very low fat diet in which I only consume about 5 grams of fat per meal. Since I read that Alli only blocks about 1/4 of the fat you consume, does that mean I’m only blocking about 3-4 g of fat from being absorbed everyday? I could burn that much off in 10 minutes of walking. Does anyone know if it blocks more fat than that?

    Probably not much, then. Alli is a simple fat blocker. The displays for Alli specifically say that the people that should take this need to be ready for a lifestyle change, specifically that they would make a commitment to diet and exercise, which it sounds like you have. As long as you accept the risks (the side effects of it, along with the warnings we’ve pointed out), then you can certainly try it.

    It can actually help you lose an extra 1-2 pounds per 5 pounds you would lose on your own because of that…. but if you eat any high-fat meals, be prepared to take a dump whenever you cough or sneeze (and I mean that literally). That’s why it says to wear brown pants.

    By blocking the absorption of fat, it passes through your digestive tract and will make your bowels and stools very oily and slippery (which is the nature of fat and grease). If that’s worth it for you for that extra couple pounds, I’d say go for it!

    Slim down – remove fat

    Please be careful on a very low fat diet. Do you have your gallbladder? Your body needs fat in order for your gallbladder to function properly. If you lower your fat too much, or go on crash diets, your gallbladder is not doing it’s job and therefore is not functioning properly That’s why you see many people’s gallbladders go out on them; because they crash diet, low fat diets, or low calorie diets.

    I have been taking it for 3 weeks now and it seems to work great. I have had no accidents whatsoever, even though I eat foods with quite an amount of fat. You can tell that it works since the fat released by your body is noticable in the toilet. I used to have an oily face when I ate too much grease, and now my face is not even oily as my body is not absorbing all the fat that I eat. Since it is a fat blocker you should eat the correct aount of fat as you do nide some fat to be healthy. In your case if you are eating so few fat grams Alli is probably easyly removing all the fat that you eat. If you eat a regular amount of fat daily then Alli will onle be able to remove some of it. If I where you I would jump to 10 grams fat per meal.

    How many calories are you eating a day? I have found that even with low fat meals and 1400 calories a day taking Alli shaves off ~ 100 calories/day. For me that $1.50 /day is worth it. It also keeps me from splurging.
