On Alli Again

Filed under: Alli | 08/31/2007 (7:25 am) |

I’m starting on Alli again today, thanks to a friend who found out the hard way that she’s just not capable of cutting her fat intake back to the 30 grams or less required to avoid the “unwanted treatment effects”. Her loss (and lack thereof) is my gain since she gave me the rest of her bottle for free.

Meanwhile, Amazon is running a one-day special on Alli 90 capsule starter pack (a 60 day supply) for $41.99 instead of the usual $59.99.

That deal expires at midnight, though.

Yay for freebies!

Wishing you the best of luck on the pills.

I thought for sure Alli would be the pill for me when I was able to afford it, but from what I’ve read I can’t take it ~ I have no gallbladder and apparently many people found out the hard way that if you don’t have a gallbladder you shouldn’t take it, as the unwanted side effects are worse and happen no matter what your fat intake might be.

I’ve heard the same thing and, although I don’t have the product pamphlet around anymore, I think it actually warns against its use if you’ve had gallbladder surgery.
