    I tried raspberry ketones, hated the side effect, stuck them in the bin.. hate to say it, but i havent found a 'cheat' pill yet... If you are in calorie deficit the weight will come off sooner or later. stick at it. good luck

    I don't get how people think a colon cleanse will help them lose weight. Logically by the time the food you ate gets to that area it's pooped out anyway. And the raspberry keytones sounds like a 50's doo-wop group and hard to take seriously.

    I can't with MFP sometimes.

    Well, my GI did give me this stuff once that cleaned me out REAAAAAAL good. Granted it was also pretty viscous and tasted like salty lemon Pledge. I couldn't finish it. He also put a scope up my backside and cut a precancerous polyp out ... so really it's not a colon cleanse I recommend to much of anyone. :laugh:

    Maybe you weren't supposed to drink it?

    Ive just started using these in conjunction with each other as part of a calories controlled diet with exercise thrown in....
    I was wondering if anyone had any experience of these - that they would like to share? Ive read awful stories of the side effects, but want to know really - am i putting my health at risk?
    Thanks.
    Save your money.

    All you have to do is control your calories to where you are eating at a deficit and you will lose weight.

    Also, your colon does not need to be cleansed, as it already does that on its own. :)

    I was very sceptical of these things but thought id give them a go. Think i'll carry on with them (otherwise that would be a proper waste of money...) and then give it a miss. Im doing enough exercise and my diet is (generally) good - but thank you everyone for your advice and comments.
    Have you thought of returning them? Some places you can return things for a refund or store credit.
