has anyone tried Alli after weight loss surgery

Hi, I had surgery in 2005 RNY and lost most of my weight, about 10 pounds away from my goal. Anyways over the last 5 years I have been gaining a little here and there around 50 pounds. I wanted to try Alli to see if it helps. Has anyone tried it yet?

Sorry for the late reply, just found this forum...   I have been thinking the same thing about alli.  I had my surgery 8/22/2002 and have gained about 30 lbs back in the past 2 years...  My Mom has been taking Alli and seems to be doing well on it (she hasn't had WLS but struggles with about 10lbs)...  Anyway, I have an appt with my WLS doc next week and I'm going to ask him.  I'll keep you posted.  

There's someone on the Lap Band Forum who just started taking it.

I want to know too!!!!!! almost at 2 years out and have never gotten to goal and have gained 15 pounds.... Ellie

I tried it.  I didn't get the diarrhea that some people compain about but I got excrutiating abdominal pain (the kind that doubles you over!) and so I stopped taking it.  I've been thinking about trying it again.  I've gained 27 pounds and am desperate to take it off. 

Ok, I havent been on the boards in a LONNNGGGG time, but could someone please tell me what Alli is? Where you get it or anything about this? Im guessing it is for weight loss??? I have 15 lbs to lose and am interested in losing them pounds.  Thanks everyone!!! Hugs, Sherri
