Oily anal leakage?!?: Orlistat is only useful with a low fat diet due to side effects if you eat fat. Better to cut carbs than fat, and lower calories. Most people are surprised at how few calories are actually needed to maintain a healthy weight, even with exercise. Also a lot of people eat things they think are healthy, but are actually full of sugar, like granola bars, fruit juice, flavored yogurts. Read Labels.
