    Good thing that I'm good at researching and finding unbiased information. I've trusted this site and adhered to advice by them with great results. They give good advice and information on all sorts of supplements.

    i have just stumbled upon this and am very intigued... planning on going tomorrow and buying from gnc! heres hoping!!! im going to be tracking progress weekly...just trying to get my fitness tracker up and running... :happy:

    Take a look at the 1 star reviews, basically saying they were giving free product to those that gave them 5 star reviews. Also, I'm pretty sure Amazon pulled the product because it says it's unavailable.

    I really don't think weight loss pills/supplements work. You gotta put in the time and effort to lose weight.

    have now read the above and think I'll give it a miss. I'm within 6 lbs of where I want to be and am looking to tone more. On the fiber note I take psyllium husks (not regularly) mainly because I'm trying to reduce my colesterol.Diet pills and potions depend on active ingredients and over processing can destroy these. I am a great believer in trying to obtain the more natural form which is easier said than done...

    Hello I just started African mango with green tea extract and the wild celery extract yesterday. I lost 2 lbs in a day. I ate every 2-3 hours, starting with half glass oj 10 mins b4 breakfast then 2-3 hours later small kiwi size fruit I ate a plum. And then 30 mins later ahealthy mix of a fist size portion of protein with a vegetable or veg and fat. Tried avoiding carbs. Ex. Half can tuna, 1 tbsp fat free miracle whip and diced tomatoes. Then repeat the fruit and meal every 2-3 hours. I restricted my diet to 900 calories (this may be too little for some I'd recommend 1200 calories or more depending on ur size and age and gender). Anyhow I was referred this by a health specialist because I could not get under 160 lbs. I will report back at the end of the week to tell you if I keep losing.

    Eat nutritious foods and get regular exercise is all you need. How does the fact that the fattest, unhealthiest country in the world sells the most "weight loss pills" and other gimmicks slip past people. It is made up nonsense for people to get rich.
    I agree 100%!

    Hello everyone, I have used myfitnesspal for over 3 years, and I have never posted to any of the message boards until now. I am a certified personal trainer and have never recommended any type of weight loss supplements.

    I have recently tried African Mango in conjunction with Glucomannan and have had amazing results! I had to test, re-test and test again to be sure that I was on the right track before posting my results.

    I am 47 years old and had gained a few extra pounds that seemed to be just stuck on my midsection. I work out everyday and I cut my saturated fat intake to about 20 grams or less per day. I cut my total fat intake (all according to myfitnesspal) to less than 80 grams per day. This means that I cut out a lot of dairy (I only ate a small amount of butter, and I used organic half and half in my morning coffee). I also cut down on meat.

    Here are my results after 2 weeks... I lost 3 pounds and 1 % of body fat in the first week
    I have lost 2 more pounds and 1.4% body fat in my second week

    I have tried just about everything Dr. Oz has recommended including Raspberry Ketones and Safslim. Glucomannan is an excellent fiber source and it keeps you full because it swells 17 times it's original size when placed in water (this is why you need to drink water after you take it).

    I would also like to mention that I do not work for any of the companies that recommend these products.

    Here is how I take the products...In the morning, I take 2 (1200 mg) of African Mango with 3 Glucomannan capsules with about 8 ounces of water. I also take 3 more capsules before lunch and dinner.

    I hope this has been helpful!

    Have a great day

    The two bolded statements seem contradictory to me. I'd think a certified personal trainer would know enough about how the body works to not fall for fads and weight loss scams.

    African Mango is yet another in the never-ending parade of "magic pill" diet scams designed to bilk desperate dieters out of their money.

    Dr Oz recommends a product a week. 2 weeks ago was Raspberry Ketone then before that PGX. He must get kickbacks or something. Eat well - be well!

    I started taking African Mango pills over a month ago and lost nothing and didnt notice any change in my desire to eat. I am now following a sensible eating and exercise plan with MFP.
