Alli diet pills



Recommended Posts

A good friend of mine tried these pills. Alot of the BDT's are due to the amount of fat you eat and if it goes in our mouth there's fat in it. My friend lost weight, mostly from running to the bathroom. Gained weight back and more when she stopped taking them, also experienced dry skin and hair from them pulling fat from her body. I asked her if she would recommend them to anybody, her remark was "only if they want to buy new clothes from the waist down and look like death warmed over".

wheetsin you are exactly right about not making comments personal so i apologize to any one i affended. but sometimes you can`t help but be defensive. if i have nothin good to say i say nothing at all accept when bein attacked. but i would never insult someone who was just asking and needed help making a decision.

With all due respect, WASa didn't attack you. In your original post, you asked for any feedback regarding the use of Alli. She gave you her opinion, which you asked for. Where was this "attack" that you speak of?

I wasn't attacking you, you asked for opinions and I gave you mine. The whole wonderful and fantastic idea behind the band is the days of orange pooh goo, space suits, red saran wrap, starch blockers, fad diets, weight loss gimmicks... those days are over. There is no longer a need for the horrors of weight loss.

There is a thread here you might want to read. A couple actually. One is about Xenical and the other are diets people have tried over the years. Seriously, everything from wearing space suit types outfits (steam bath concept?) to wrapping yourself in saran wrap before going running.

You asked for opinions, I gave you mine. It just isn't an attack if I don't agree with the need for more drugs such as this. I gave you what you asked for, my opinion. I have no clue how you take that as an attack. If you want people to agree with you then you'll have to explain that. If you want the opinions of others then you can't accuse people of attacking if they do as you request.

Wasa is a valued member of this site. Not only has she gone through the lap band experience and subsequent weight loss journey herself but she is a member of the medical establishment, one who has chosen to engage herself in educating herself on a professional level on the technical aspects of the surgery itself in addition to learning about those issues concerning its aftermath and, moreover, those issues which relate to weight loss in general. It is for this reason that she brings something special to LBT, the marriage of academic/technical knowledge of lapband/weight loss surgical techniques, and general medical issues and of her own personal struggles with weight loss.

She is one of the few qualified resource people who we are lucky to have on this site. Some of you may feel that she is arrogant; the truth is that she is not. She simply knows an awful lot, and has chosen to share this knowledge with us: she cares about us and that really is very bluddy cool.

I agree with Green. Additionally, Wasa will say she doesn't know something if she doesn't. She's also the very first to say to follow your doctor's direction above any other advice given, including hers.

yeah i totally disagree.

there are several posts where someone says they know something when in reading the post its obvious they do not, and they NEVER say they are sorry or apologize when they are wrong. ever. There are a lot of people who clame to be one thing when they are not.

(im trying to not make this about the person, rather the idea but in this specific case its very difficult. im still trying.)

Yum already apologized for any misunderstanding, and its not enough, you got to go on and post and post and post about it instead of just letting it go. I know that wasa has a great deal of fans on here, as devoted to the website as she is, it doesnt suprise me. It doesnt mean that everyone on here is a fan, nor do they have to be.

I myself could come around more if she could either admit when shes wrong rather than continue attaking, or at least say "im sorry" when shes wrong. I dont expect that will ever happen. ill get in trouble for this i bet. I dont want that, but i just have a hard time with all the back patting going on when someone already said they were sorry and hoped they didnt affend.

Do you really believe you have any credibility when you have to create this ID to slam others? Seriously, you created this ID to follow me around and cause problems. Let's face it, you have already pretty well admitted this.

With all due respect, get over yourself.

If you are referring to my post, this was not anything personal against anybody on my part. Green wrote a message and I was agreeing with it. My accolade had nothing to do with Yum (frankly, I have no idea what you're even talking about in that regard) and I said nothing about anybody having to be a fan of anyone. I am speaking from personal experience; this is my opinion which I will state when I see fit. I have not posted and posted about anything or anybody. If I can say something positive in a situation that I am familiar with, I try to do that. I have not sparred on this board with anyone and nor do I intend to start. It's not my bag. It takes two to do that and I refuse to play.

...furthermore, i havent tried to create one single problem. Ive just voiced my opinion. You are opinionated and direct. What? you cant stand it when someone else is too? Does it deserve a response? take your own advice and just dont.

:pound::pound::pound: Seriously, that made me laugh in real time. :clap2:

Here's a news-flash: WASa and I are friends. When one of us gets attacked, the other sticks up for her. Neither one of us is the type of person to make up SNs to go harass another person. Whenever we want to call someone out, we do it on our real SNs.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
