Alli Diet Guide - Boost your
weight loss by up to 50%

Alli should be taken with a reduced calorie, lower-fat diet.

But why reduce calories? Calories are a measurement of the energy your body needs to function. When you eat more calories than your body needs, it stores the excess energy (or calories) as fat.

Your calorie target is the maximum number of calories you should eat per day. This target varies according to your weight, gender and activity levels and you can set your targets using the information in the alli pack or below. Eating less than 1200 calories daily is not recommended.

Fat is an essential part of a balanced diet. The right amount of fat helps the body absorb vitamins and perform other essential functions.

So, with alli, you don’t need to cut fat out of your diet completely; to successfully lose weight you should limit your intake to your individual fat target e.g. 15g of fat per meal for someone with a calorie target of 1400 calories a day. Your individual fat target is determined by your daily calorie target

Your fat target is the maximum number of grams of fat you should eat in each meal or snack.

Controlling the amount of fat you eat is essential when losing weight with alli, not just because fat is high in calories, but also because of the way the capsules work. Taking the alli capsules means that some fat isn’t absorbed, so by staying within your recommended fat target, you can reduce the chances of experiencing diet-related treatment effects.

Healthy eating doesn’t just last for a few weeks while you’re ‘on a diet’. The only way to lose weight and keep it off is to make long-lasting changes to your activity levels, and maintain a balanced diet.

Achieving your weight loss goals with the alli programme isn’t complicated, it just takes practice to get into the new habits. Like most things, once you’re used to them, healthy eating and maintaining a higher activity level will simply become part of your daily routine.

Sensible eating goes beyond the few weeks that you’re ‘on a diet’. There are no tricks and no mysteries; the simple key to losing weight and keeping it off is to make long-lasting changes to your lifestyle habits. You’ve already made a start, and the alli programme provides support to keep you going.

The following tips can help you make steady progress to your goal weight.

Eat regular meals and snacks

Eating with alli isn’t about starving yourself and going for hours a day without food. You should be eating regularly – three good meals that are reduced calorie and lower-fat, plus 1 snack that are all within your calorie and fat targets.

Take your time

The longer you chew your food, the more you’ll notice the different flavours, because it has more time to stimulate a larger number of your taste buds. Eating more slowly can also give your stomach the time it needs to let your brain know that it’s full – about 15 minutes. A well-chewed meal helps you to avoid indigestion too.

Eat a varied diet

While you’re following the alli programme, it’s important to eat reduced calorie, lower-fat meals which contain a range of different nutrients. This will help ensure that your diet is balanced overall so you lose weight healthily.

It’s important you follow a lower-fat diet to avoid any diet-related treatment effects.

You should also take a multivitamin every day at bedtime to ensure adequate absorption of vitamins A, D, E and K.
