1st day on alli

April 12, 2011
As I stated before I have been watching my fat gram and calorie intake for the last 3 days so getting into this program was not "messy". I read way too many warnings about it not to. If someone was watching me take the first pill they would have laughed quite hard. I had this envision that the moment I took it I would be running for the commode. I held that pill between my fingers poised in my mouth for probably a full 5 minutes before I let go. Low and behold nothing happened. I logged my food on the alli website for every morsel that passed my lips. So far so good. I have also increased my water intake up to the required 64 oz (8 glasses w/8 oz each). So I do run for the ladies room only so that I can dispose of all the water.
You see I know that the treatment effects are suppose to make the extra fat that you ingest come out of you in a very oily orange gross way. No thank you. I will do anything I can to not make that happen.
The website has me set to weight in on April 18th. Knowing I have a goal of 70lbs to lose should keep me in check right.

Alli

Okay so I completed the entire Standard Process Program with ehhh okay results. I was however proud of myself for having completed the entire program with no major slip ups. True to form as soon as the program ended so did my will power. I ended up packing the pounds back on due to my complete lack of trying. I even sold my treadmill so that the reminder was no longer standing in my ever growing face.

I have now hit my highest weight ever! I can't handle the idea of that. Some of the amazing things that happened to me while on the Standard Process Program such as the lack of heartburn and headaches are now back. My sleeping patterns have now also gone back to sparatic. So here I sit with heartburn, a dull headache as well as body aches reminding me that I need to chose a better lifestyle. I want to be healthy for me and for the future children I would love to have. Speaking of which I also would love to be in a healthy body when I do get pregnant so that I can bounce back easier and have a smoother pregnancy.

Soooo.....after wasting entirely too many days at work researching for an answer I found one. One that kept telling me it helped people overweight with zero will-power act as a babysitter. Yes, that is exactly what I need. Sad I know.

I ordered my first bottle of alli. I am sure you have at least heard about it.
Here is the simplified form of it. If I go over 15grams of fat per meal I more than likely will have an accident in my pants. Who in the heck wants that to happen? Not me. So I have done what was recommended and starting eating correctly and logging my food intake 3 days prior to popping the pill.
