Can vegetarians take Alli weight loss tablets?

i have heard that there is a structured meal plan, and if you eat more fat than recommended there can be disgusting side effects, so i am confused.

im seriously not a troll i just want to know if i will be wasting my money by buying these pills.

and if anyone tells me they are silly etc, im at my last resort with this dieting, i need to loose 3 stone (14 lb x 3) by September!

( i have already asked this question in alternative medicines category)

Answer on Can vegetarians take Alli weight loss tablets?

Alli should be vegetarian safe. Email them and ask anyway, i would have expected you to do that first. The point of the thing, apparently, is that it voids an enzyme [lipids maybe?] in your intestines that converts fat to fatty acids and prepares them to be absorbed in the body, from doing it's job. So you don't absorb much [or none @ all maybe] fats. By consuming it, the only way your body will get rid of it is via excretion. So oily/loose/wet/stink stools will be expected. Prepare yourself. I'm pretty sure it works, if it's doing that...but I can't imagine when someone gets off the pills..how they will feel when their body's fat converting enzyme is like 'Wait...what do I do again??'. The sucky part is that Vitamins A, E, D and K will barely be absorbed because they are fat-soluable vitamins. So you really need to make sure you want to do this. Make sure you take the proper dosage..I can't stand when people up their dosage when they shouldn't to get 'better effects'. That's a load of bs and will..WILL hurt you.
