Day 1

Of Alli, and Slimquick Hoodia.

Alli is a diet pill which is proven to decrease the amount of fat you absorb, up to half of the fat you eat per meal. The fat that you eat, that is not absorbed must go somewhere so it goes out your butt! This is the main complain for Alli, that when people do not follow the low fat diet, they pay for it with uncontrollable bowl movements, and being leaky and gassy in general.

I would prefer simple hoodia extract capsules, because vitamin companies would be more reliable, but it only comes in diet brands. Hoodia is a South African herb, used for appetite repression during long hunts. Even those that oppose the effectiveness of this herb admits at least that. Clinical trials go both ways, but that just makes me think of how everything effects everybody in different ways. If it doesn't work for you, doesn't meant it won't work for someone else!

It probably sounds like overkill to take on two different diet plans, but I'm okay with that. I used to be a crazy fit athlete that did cardio and weight training 3 times a day, 7 days a week, and thus could eat whatever I wanted, and stayed at 5'3, 140lb. I am now (still 5'3!), and 168lb. I plan to loose 60lb. That also might sound like over kill but my old ju jitsu and weight training partner was a body builder (and you could see it in every part of her body!), and was 110, and my height. I don't want to have as much muscle as she, so there is no doubt that I can reach that weight while staying athletically muscular.

I gained nearly 30lb because of a thyroid problem my doctor just discovered. For now, I am taking 3 daily thyroid supplements but I want the weight gone as fast as I can get rid of it, so you might say that I am taking 3 different medications for weight loss. I will never be able to swim as much as I did when I was on my college swim team with a coach pushing me and daily practice, but I can swim two days a week in a class and do my best to push myself. I also plan to join a new dojo for Shotokan Karate, and potentially another dojo for karate, since all my old martial art places I did attend are now closed. So sad! I hate to see good sensei's talents go to waste, due to the economy.

Anyways, wish me luck in lowering my my diet to less fat, since I loooove fried, fatty foods, though I am sure I would dislike anal leaking even more!!
