Xenical has the same problem. You don't lose weight because you're not metabolising fat, you lose weight because you're so terrified of eating anything fatty and crapping yourself that you cut it out of your diet. As for Type II diabetes: I've got it and it's bloody miserable but I make sure to eat at least one enormous bacon cheeseburger a week just to maintain my weight above 63kg, which is the point where I start to enter the much more dangerous territory of being underweight. The rest of the time it's salads and fruit and fish (wine-poached salmon tonight, yum!) but the idea that the occasional burger will put you in an early grave is just the neo-Puritans trying to wring that extra little drop of misery out of peoples' lives. In a sane world they'd all be put in a big field and napalmed repeatedly, but we don't live in a sane world.David Gilliesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-41907132436993914732010-01-05T14:37:05.015+00:002010-01-05T14:37:05.015+00:00IIRC from one of the lamented "Dr Crippen'...IIRC from one of the lamented "Dr Crippen's" postings... Isn't one of Alli's side effects rather euphemistically described as "anal leakage", ie it causes you to shit yourself?<br /><br />I think that "Crippen" described it as the "shitty knickers drug". :-(Pogohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10812765444160924585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-82203105994667263762010-01-05T10:34:14.533+00:002010-01-05T10:34:14.533+00:00"Buy our products ... or die"
Its a trie..."Buy our products ... or die"<br />Its a tried and tested formula(unlike their anti-smoking drugs)isnt it.<br /><br />The fatties are even more cost effective it seems. They get put straight on the patented drugs. The foul smokers have to be put on less profitable NRT before they can be coerced onto the real money spinners. <br /><br />But, Once that there are nice food and alcohol bans we can all just be put on patented anti-depressants to get through our fun-free lives.The holy grail of pharma.Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02791104221799133550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-86002605527111071782010-01-05T08:45:24.160+00:002010-01-05T08:45:24.160+00:00So...is Alli's method weight-loss through diar...So...is Alli's method weight-loss through diarrohea?

I had stood on new scales that morning and nearly died of obesity. When I saw the bit on the Alli info that said it may alter your bowel movements, I immediately lost interest. My fat loving, foul mouthed wife came home from work that evening to inform me that one of her colleagues had been rushed into hospital for an urgent, life saving operation on her bowels. Yep, you have got it in one, she had been using Alli.timbonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06985165416240833253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-61876243191244211472010-01-04T18:10:41.391+00:002010-01-04T18:10:41.391+00:00Hey, wait a minute. Heart disease belongs to nicot...Hey, wait a minute. Heart disease belongs to nicotine these days, which stole it from alcohol. Except it only causes heart disease in non-smokers when they get a slight whiff of smoke. Smokers are immune.<br /><br />And I'm sure diabetes used to belong to excessive raw sugar consumption, no matter the waist size. <br /><br />Can't these diet fadders find their own diseases to play with? How about leprosy and scrofula? None of the Righteous-controlled things have been associated with those two yet.<br /><br />Or maybe bipolar disorder? Oh, wait, that's caused by comitting a crime and getting caught. <br /><br />There's always ringworm, I suppose.Leg-ironhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04932361799889315359noreply@blogger.com
