Alli

After being on alli for a while (over a month) I had my weigh in today, I haven't lost a thing! I've not cheated and have been walking 3 miles a day and doing aerobics too, to find that i've lost nothing is really disappointing, I don't understand what went wrong

Hi Froggy, I am on Xenical, not Alli but the double strength of it, just didn't want to read and run. It seems odd that you haven't lost any weight, and very disheartening for you. Can I suggest that you post a food diary here telling us exactly what you eat on a daily basis and see if we can point you in the direction of something that isn't quite right. Do you keep an eye on calorie intake as well as fat? Don't give up!

yes I kept at 1400 per day, my usual daily diet was something like this

Breakfast: 2 slices of toast, scraping of extra low fat spread
Lunch: Ham sandwich with low fat ham and no spread, banana.
Tea: Something like a weight watchers meal or some soup.
Snack: pack of snack a jacks or slim a soup.

That looks fine so I don't know what to tell you. 1400 calories is at the upper end of the scale you should be eating for your height and weight but you should still be able to lose a pound a week at that level. Have you spoken to your doctor?
