Re: Anyone using a diet or weight loss pill that actually works??

Unfortunately, I think that there is no pill that is going to do anything that you couldn't just do on your own. Sucks, but the basic stuff is what works best (i.e., everything in moderation and some exercise). Good luck!!!

Re: Anyone using a diet or weight loss pill that actually works??

Sadly, pills don't work. At least not for me. The only thing that's ever worked for me is good old fashioned diet and exercise... and ATKINS, of course.

Re: Anyone using a diet or weight loss pill that actually works??

Oh how I wish there were a magic pill to take and lose weight instantly! LOL!!!! I've lost weight recently but that's mainly because I've been working out like crazy and eating rabbit food! LOL (J/K)

I tried TrimSpa and I didnt like how I felt on it .. but I've seen it work for a lot of people. All those diet pills make me jittery and nauseuous .. not for me!

I didn't like Atkins , so I just went back to WW .. portion control, and treating myself once in awhile so I don't feel deprived.

But for someone who loves to eat as much as I do, dieting sucks!

Re: Anyone using a diet or weight loss pill that actually works??

I'm doing Atkins and that totally works, although...

This is bad to say, right after I graduated college I started taking ephedra and I lost about 40 lbs.

But that stuff totally messed up my system!

Re: Anyone using a diet or weight loss pill that actually works??

Dexatrim Natural, is pretty good, helps curb your urges between meals.. but if you can't take them early enough in the day, then tend to make u a little hyper.. first week I took them had some trouble getting to sleep. The other reason I like them, is that they are alittle more budget friendly than some of the stuff from GNC.

That plus a very low carb diet, I've lost 10 1/2 lbs in three weeks.. and I haven't been working out anymore than before.. so I think it's working..

But honestly no pill works by itself.. it's always in combo with diet & excersise.

Re: Anyone using a diet or weight loss pill that actually works??

see a nutritionist and join a gym. I have lost 9 lbs in 10 days. I love it. Atkins works but it only keeps the weight off while you are on it. A friend of mine did atkins lost 28 lbs and once she lost all of it and went back to eatting moderately she gainned 35 lbs back right away. WW is the way to go or see a nutritionist and have a diet made for your body type.

Re: Anyone using a diet or weight loss pill that actually works??

I agree with diet and exercise, but my problem is plain old hunger! And the more I exercise, the hungrier I get!

I'd love to find a (safe) pill that would help to curb my raging appetite!

My fw(BriBri529) is doing weight watchers, and she lost 24 pounds. In my opinion she always looked good in my eyes but she wanted to do this and i supported her with this decision 100%. Ask her if you have any questions about this diet.

Re: Anyone using a diet or weight loss pill that actually works??

I have been doing Herbal Life. It is alot of pills and you are not really hungry all day. You have to replace two meals with shakes but I make them in the blender and add fruit and different flavored exacts. It actually fun to make and the shakes are awesome. I eat fruits and vegtables in between if i am hungry.
And take it from me- (who is always hungry) these pills are great.
I also go kickboxing 3 times a week and walk the other 4. I am doing great. I haven't lost any weight but i have lost inches and I am down a size in clothes.
I was one who couldn't live without ephedrine. I lost alot of weight with it. I was also able to eat everything and not gain a pound.

Overall the best way to go is a good diet with all the food groups and alot of exercise.
Atleast 45minutes to 1 hour of cardio 3-4 times a week really helps

Re: Anyone using a diet or weight loss pill that actually works??

No diet pills work and they are dangerous to take....if you want to take something that really works and is all natural try CLA it helps burn fat in hard places....

Re: Anyone using a diet or weight loss pill that actually works??

I'm doing Atkins and it works for me, BUT if I wasn't getting married so soon I'd opt Weight Watchers, which to me is the only really healthy way to go.
