Raspberry Ketones??

Options
Hi guys not sure if this has been discussed before but has any tried raspberry ketones?
and have you had any success stories?
I've got a wedding coming but and want to lose as much weight as I can.
Will these diet pills help?

    NO.

    They won't help so don't waste your $. Just eat at a deficit.

    ^^^ This. Yes, it's been discussed plenty of times, and no, they won't do anything for you. The only thing they'll make lighter is your wallet. lol

    And exercise. :) Move more, eat less. You can do it without fad diet pills. I have faith in you. :flowerforyou:

    How long have you been counting calories, and how much is a "slowdown"? I'd just be happy I was still losing weight.

    Sugary stuff isn't bad for you, but if it helps keep you in a deficit, then good job!

    How long have you been stuck for? Weight loss tends to slow down as you get closer to your goal and if it's just been a couple of weeks without a loss than that's likely just a typical stall due to water retention (sodium, hormones, exercise, etc can all cause a bit of water retention). If it's been much longer than that you may want to double-check your calorie goals and your logging accuracy to be sure you're still eating at a deficit.

    Stalls and plateaus are generally beaten by getting more diligent with your logging and activity, not with magic pills.

    If you've been stuck for a few months then you're not eating at a calorie deficit. You're either overestimating how much you burn or underestimating how much you eat (or some combination of the two).

    With your diary locked it's hard to give specific advice. How many calories are you eating? Are you accurately logging your food? Including things like veggies, condiments, and cooking oils? Are you using a food scale, measuring cups/spoons, or guesstimating portion sizes? Are you exercising? Are you eating back your earned exercise calories? If so, what method are you using to estimate your burn? Do you have any health issues that might be affecting your weight loss?

    Trust me. I've tried several "diet" pills including raspberry ketones. None of them work. I haven't had luck with diet and exercise either, but at least that's free. :laugh:

    sorry didn't realise my diary was locked. ive stopped adding calories burned for couple weeks nw thinking maybe I am over eating
    n if I dont add calories burned I wont eat.
    Im on 1200 calories and near enough am close to my target for home cooked meals yh im guestimating. for everything else
    im adding whats on the packets.
    I walk for 30 mins morning and afternoon sometimes miss a morning but always do afternoon.
    I have machines behind my kids school in the park I use them for about 30-40 mins in total and if I dont do that
    I work out at home for 30 mins. Im active throughout the day cooking cleaning the usual.

    Im using the MFP estimate for burn.
    Im thinking maybe my bodys gotten comfy with my routine thats why I started to exercise more often before it was 2-3 times
    a week nw im tryin to hit 7 times a week minimum 5 days at least. kids r hme on weekend so dont always get chance to work out.

    This would be the first thing I would suggest changing. Get familiar with the recipe builder here and start logging the actual ingredients you're using. Buy a cheap food scale and start using it, or at the very least a set of measuring cups and spoons (food scale will be more accurate, but anything is better than guessing). Unfortunately, it's really easy to wipe out your calorie deficit by logging inaccurately.
