How does everyone feel about using weight loss supplements along with better eating and exercise?

    You don't need them! They are only a crutch!

    The key is "with better eating and exercise". That's what actually makes the difference. The pills just lighten your bank balance.

    I wouldn't even call them a crutch. Crutches are useful.

    Truth!! LOL

    I used them before and I can safely tell you that it doesn't work, use that money to buy healthy foods that will help in your weight loss.

    If pills worked I would sell everything I own and buy into the company.
    That company will become the richest company in the world overnight.
    It would take over the world.
    = Pills don't work.

    The only weightloss supplements you need are a good multivitamin maybe some protein powder.

    And they don't even help you lose the weight!

    Most bodybuilders use fat burners. I've had success with them as well.

    I did Herbal Life, lost 12 pounds over 2.5 months, gained 6 pounds back when I was off from it.

    Weight loss supps are a temporary fix that usually results in gaining the weight back as soon as you stop using them. Learning how to eat within a given calorie range and sticking with that knowledge is the solution to long term weight loss and control.
