Default Re: Has anyone tried Atkins and Alli (Orlistat) together?

Thanks Maggie - well done on the weight loss.

I have lost 11lbs since I started taking Alli/reducing my fat intake about 3 weeks ago. I took Alli for a week, and then stopped for the last two, and have managed to keep my fat to between 60-80g a day, my carbs low - 25-40g and my water high! Am feeling really good about things, and may just use Alli for the last surge. Will post pics later.

p.s. Am not endorsing Alli with Atkins, as it is too high in fat a diet to be a happy coupling, but I hold my hands up and admit I didn't count my food and ended up eating way too much fat. It can't be said for certain whether pulling up the reins on my diet, or the addition of Alli was the catalyst for this little whooshie, but I am happy in how I am doing.
