    Might. Might make you so sick you can't eat. Big calorie saving.

    Losing weight is about eating fewer calories and/or burning more.

    If drinking vinegar before meals (which seems unpleasant to me) makes you eat less somehow, then sure, it could.

    There are many other ways to do the same thing, though, like just eating less, eating mindfully, counting calories, eating satisfying and satiating foods.

    I do not believe that drinking vinegar would result in me eating less, and also my meals tend to be about the size I want to eat.

    No weight loss benefits in using it that way.

    Make a delicious salad dressing with Balsamic Vinegar and freshly chopped mint. It may help to keep calories a bit lower than using some other type of dressings.

    If I drank vinegar before I ate my meal I might not even eat my meal, so I guess I would be saving calories that way. But that isn't very rational now is it? :smile:

    Lose weight by eating less food. Simple.

    No, there are no magical potions such as ACV that work. Sorry

    There are drugs that cause fat loss. That statement in general isn't true.

    No there aren't. ...there may be pills that help you with Co that will then help weight loss but direct and only fat burning....no.

    I think you said the same thing I did.

    Nope....you said drugs caused FAT loss....
    Not the same thing at all.

    There are drugs that cause fat loss, but they are either illegal or are questionable like yohimbine; and some OTC combos like EC stack that do provide some fat burning effects. Not that i would recommend any of these.

    But ACV is not going to do anything

    This diet fad goes back to the 1970's at least. It doesn't work any better now than it did back then.
