    CLA looked promising... in rats, humans, not so much:

    L-Carnitine's effect on body fat is minimal:

    I just started taking them. Im doing calorie deficit with cardio a few times a week. No difference in weight except from deficit. Not sure if supplements will help with weight loss but my son trains professional athletes and he recommended them to me. So we'll see.

    Nice job on achieving a deficit for weight loss! As per @senecarr's post, neither supplement would cause loss, if anything else.

    I stopped taking both. I don't notice a difference with or without them.

    They will help you lose a lot of money, but not weight. They are insignificant to weight loss. Just maintain a caloric deficit
