I have a friend on it now. If you eat too much fat, it gives you the shits. I think that's motivation enough!

I LOLed for realz when it suggests that you wear dark pants and bring a change of clothes until you get used to it.

ROFLMFAO!!!

apparently this makes spray oil when you fart.

I don't even know what else to say here.

There may be some truth to the oily gas stains... They say on the healthcare professionals site for alli that the side effects are some GI disturbances as well as those other things...

It is a GI Lipase inhibitor that does not allow the cells in the GI tract breakdown triglycerides.

I have not seen the actual clinical trial.

My guess, folks predisposed to HNPCC will be having problems... The dayum thing is a carcinogen and good one... Or cause IBS.

And GlaxoSmithKline is questionable right now...

And this issue is folks pop pills, but don't exercise or eat properly.

Hands down one of the best posts I've seen in awhile on here. I'm with AlphaFrog, I'm crying here.

I don't know, these pills seem to provide a "quick fix" when the name of the game really should be "stop eating so much fatass and start working out!"

Who knew Xenical (with all of it's crazy side effects) would ever hit OTC? YUCK! I'm surprised this was approved to be OTC without a doctor's supervision. Then again, I have a feeling that most people won't stick with this one (and potentially abuse it) because of the side effects.

Yes but will people stop eating fat or stop taking the drug. That's more what I meant.
