TWO WHOLE BAGS!!! As for Alli, eating with a modest calorie deficit over time will most likely be as if not more effective - without the worry or necessity of keeping an extra pair of pants/underwear at the office... As Julia above said, not to mention the cost! Besides, in her SIGNIFICANT weight loss (45lbs is a big deal, so serious congratulations to you) she has no doubt started up some healthy eating habits which will last a lifetime. You just can't get that in a bottle.

I've lost 45 pounds in the past five months, and I considered it but don't think that the added expense would have been worth whatever additional loss I might have had. (I still have about 40 pounds to go, but I don't think I'll add Alli to the mix, now.) It’s about $30 a month, too, so is that worth it for 8 pounds?
