Working with the alli^® program can lead you toward a healthy lifestyle by helping you gradually achieve weight loss. To help you begin, we’re providing you with six steps to a successful start.

Step 1: decide if alli is right for you

If you are an overweight adult who wants to lose weight, alli may be right for you.

You should also consider these additional questions:

• can I commit to a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet?
• am I willing to become more physically active?
• will I read and follow all label instructions?

Step 2: know what weight loss to expect

When you take alli while following a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet, you can achieve healthy, gradual weight loss. That means:

• you can lose 50% more weight than you would dieting alone
  • if you were to lose 10 pounds dieting, you could lose 15 with the alli program
• you can lose an average of one to two pounds per week. Of course, the amount of weight you actually lose will depend on how closely you follow your diet and the alli program

Step 3: understand how alli works

alli prevents ¼ of the fat you eat from being absorbed by your body. Since fat contains more calories than other nutrients, this process increases your weight loss.

The fat then passes harmlessly out of your body, which may cause bowel changes known as treatment effects, especially with meals containing more than 15 grams of fat. These effects may include:

• gas with oily spotting
• loose stools
• more frequent stools that may be hard to control

To help manage these treatment effects, you should maintain a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet while following the alli program.

Step 5: set your personal fat gram and calorie targets

Knowing and keeping track of your fat and calorie targets are important parts of the alli program.

• your calorie target is the number of calories you should eat per day to lose weight
  • this target can vary depending on your weight, activity level, and gender
• your fat gram target is the number of fat grams you can eat per meal to promote weight loss
  • you should average about 15 grams of fat per meal, and no more than 30% of the calories from each meal should come from fat

The alli program will calculate these targets for you and will give you the tools you need to maintain them successfully.

Step 6: commit to a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet

Before you start taking alli, it is important that you begin following a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet.

• this diet should consist of three meals per day and, if you’d like, a healthy snack
• once you know your fat gram and calorie targets, you’ll need to make sure these meals don’t exceed them
• it is also important that you spread your fat gram allowance evenly throughout the day. You cannot save up your daily fat gram allowance for individual meals

It is best to follow this diet for at least three days before you begin taking alli. And when it comes to dieting, you shouldn’t confuse low fat with low flavor. The alli program has hundreds of delicious recipes that are low in fat and high in taste.

Starting right begins with you
