    Bariatric surgery along with diet and exercise. Highly successful.

    Doesn't bariatric surgery literally work by enforcing CICO?

    Have any of you tried to lose weight without diet or exercise, such as taking diet pills, using body wraps, or even as crazy as freezing your body to get thin. If you have tried a different method what was it and did it help?

    Phentermine plus fenfluramine (phen/fen) worked marvelously for me, but fenfluramine was of course withdrawn from the market due to damaging hearts, and that soured me on the whole diet pill thing.

    I didn't learn healthy eating habits when my appetite was artificially suppressed by taking a legal amphetamine-like drug and I gained the weight back when I stopped taking it.

    I want to market a new fad diet. It's called the "Smack Your Hand Diet." It works every time for everyone. All you do is hire someone to follow you around and smack your hand whenever you reach for a food that exceeds your calorie limit.

    Nuns that have retired from Catholic school teaching?

    Perfect! They could also have a bell and follow you yelling "shame" if you exceed your calorie target for the day.

    I look at like if you're hungry eat, not to feel full, just satisfied, be conscious about what you're taking into your body, stay away from trigger foods or alcohol that will forget how much calories you're taking in and if you are going to be physically active feed yourself to maintain strength so you do lose energy or risk injury. Simple guidelines to follow

    Is that the one people have died from by essentially "cooking" themselves from the inside?

    As far as I am aware there have been 63 deaths attributed to DNP published in the medical literature. However, that goes back to 1918 (a factory worked in a explosives factory) so not exactly a startling number. In fact almost all of those were prior to the 30s when it was banned.

    They are due to "cooking" themselves as you say. I was more think about the incidences of non-lethal side effects reported though.

    (sorry if I'm not allowed to discuss things like DNP this BTW)

    Deaths from DNP occur because people take it without knowing how it builds up in the blood and they take too much. Also it makes you flat and soft and hold water so people fall into the trap of upping the dose. A modest 250-300mg daily over a longer period is ideal (and illegal) but DNP isn't the monster people make it out to be.
