    Wow, you sound exactly like me! lol I just started calorie counting and I am also on the Alli Pill.

    I personally don't know if Alli is really working since I eat a low fat diet anyways...

    I hope you find enough encouragement here!!
  • So Alli is working for you? I want to take it but I am scared of the side effects. I am already eating low fat, but any extra help it can give me is needed. I just joined and need all the support I can get too! Good luck to ya!
  • Hi and welcome. Good luck with your goals
  • WELCOME! I'm kinda new to the whole idea of calorie counting too. I started a few months ago, but found out that if you don't eat enough, then you're starving your body of much needed fuel. If you can stay focused and keep track of everything you eat, then I know you'll do just fine!!!

    Let me know how Alli works. I've thought about it, but also am hesitant because I don't really want to take a "diet pill" then shock my body when I reach GW.
