How to Restart My Alli Program

Alli is a FDA-approved weight-loss aid that helps prevent your body from absorbing the fat you eat. The diet program comes with online tools to assist you in achieving you weight-loss goals. After taking a break from Alli, you might want to get back on the program to lose more weight or maintain your current weight. Restarting Alli is similar to starting Alli for the first time. Remember, diet and exercise are important parts of any weight-loss program.

Instructions

• 1

  Consult with a doctor before starting any diet and exercise plan to ensure it is a healthy decision for you. Make sure your doctor knows you were taking Alli, how long ago you stopped taking it and that you plan on taking it again. Follow your doctor's advice to ensure you lose weight the healthiest and safest way possible.

• 2

  Complete the Alli "How to Start" quiz online (see Resources) to establish your personal weight loss plan, based on your current weight, eating habits and goals. Follow the advice and use the support tools offered through the Alli program throughout your diet.

• 3

  Eat a low-fat diet for 3 days before starting to take the Alli pill again. It is recommended that you start the diet over the weekend so you can concentrate on eating well.

• 4

  Exercise for 15 minutes a day during the days before starting to take the Alli pill again. Build up the amount of exercise you do over the course of your diet, and look for ways to be more active during your normal day by taking the stairs rather than an elevator or parking farther from work or the store.

• 5

  Take the Alli pill after your 3-day low-fat diet, and continue with the diet and exercise. Utilize the support tools that come with Alli as you work toward your weight-loss goal.
