You are all intelligent, and no matter how much you want to believe they will, Don't you think if there was really a pill that works (and is safe) it would be all over the headlines and cost more than the dollars of teh ones sold over the counter.
Please be senible with what you put in your body. Many have serious health risk, such as strokes, heart attacks, and even death.
Stick with your exercise and eating sensible and it will happend!

I agree!! After all, you want to get fit and loose weight by getting and keeping good habits, not by taking pills for the rest of your life.

Actually the pill I was talking about is a supplement- it's actually a an enzyme extract of a white bean- it's been written about in a medical journal- actually helps you burn more carbs b/c the enzyme eats the carbs.. it's weird- but it's not dangerous (like Xenadrine, etc)

I still don't believe in Supps either. they are not regulated by the gov. which means they can vary so much in contents/dosage/etc. Not worth it too me. I played with too much fire in my past, glad to be around today (eatting disorders, etc)

Re: There is no PILL that's gonna work...
I have tried every diet pill that there is..my friend owns a GNC, so it was easy to try everything..they did lessen my hunger for teh first few days, but then just made me very crabby. Excercise unfortunately and watching what I eat is the only thing that works for me.

Re: There is no PILL that's gonna work...
I am ok now, but have some long-term effects.... I have the shakes & I have lost my equilibrium, so I get dizzy alot. It has also permanently damaged my thyroid, which ironically, is making me 'puffy'
But I am safe, thank goodness. The Dr. said if I had not stopped, it would have probably killed me.

Re: There is no PILL that's gonna work...
I have seen pills in the healthfood store or GNC that have a thyroid stimulating hormone type thing in it. I cant believe they are even allowed to sell those. That is very dangerous, and people dont know better. They dont tell you that messin with your thyroid can kill you, and it that you can do permanant damage. Diet and exercise is what works. Not necessarily having to be on a diet, but just making healthy choices.
