    Eat servings instead of portions walking and excerise and try decreasing
    your sugar intake..try alternatives like honey and agave. Eating raw veggies and cutting carbs is helping me alot and as for cravings go ginger root and lemon tea seem to decrease my appeptite big time...and give me energy.But i think the best thing for weight loss is a will to lose and a positive attitude love yourself and dont give up..theres no magic pill to shed the pounds..trust me ive tried ..youll just waste your money on that stuff :|

    1) Sugar is sugar is sugar. There is no use replacing one type of sugar for another. They're not healthier than each other. All that is required for weight loss is a calorie deficit.
    2) Not necessary. All that is required for weight loss is a calorie deficit. It can be a way to achieve CICO, though, but not necessary.

    Everything else is cool, though.

    I can't lose weight easily, my doctor has been monitoring me for over two years and realized it's hormone related. I've had bad experiences with various pills to correct this after trying various diet plans and exercise plans (i lose few but re-gain more while still on the plans). He recommended Hydroxycut so i'll try next year

    I'm surprised to read that your doctor recommended Hydroxycut.

    Hormone problems affect your appetite. But if you count calories and ignore your appetite you can lose weight. Of course ignoring your appetite day in and day out is no small thing. But if you are determined enough, you can do it. Best of luck.

    I take fish oil daily and CLA. I take both to A) Help my heart and cardiovascular system and B) to help burn fat/keep my arteries in good shape. The CLA is reported to help reduce fat and increase muscle but the jury is out, I use it to help my arteries (which I figured were half clogged from years of being obese) clear and to help them recover.

    What's CLA?

    Thanks

    I do hear very good things about Ali and it's the only over the counter drug, regulated and approved by the FDA. It doesn't burn fat however, it blocks some of the fat the user ingests. Also... I don't put much faith in the FDA so I only believe about half of what they claim. I also hear very good things about Belivq but again, it's not meant as a fat burner but a fat blocker. You would need a prescription for that one from your medical doctor.

    Read this before you decide to take Alli: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10290083/alli-xenical-does-it-work-please-only-answer-if-you-have-actually-taken-it/p1

    That thread never gets old, and is a great deterrent for me at least, from ever considering taking anything like that. All kinds of nope..

    Oh...My...God....
    If people still choose to take that after hearing all the people say no and the horror stories maybe they deserve it.

    Still feel bad for the people who don't know :D
