Leaving their efficacy aside for a moment-- even if they DO work exactly as promoted-- keep in mind what you're signing up for. If you CAN'T lose weight without gimmicks or specialized products, you need to either make peace with buying and taking them for the rest of your life, or you'll start slipping once you do finally go off them.
That said, that's a fate I do feel comfortable enough to live with. I'll stick with my morning and lunch cups of coffee, which help immensely in keeping the hunger at bay. Despite this being a casual AND socially accepted addition, its not a choice I would make lightly.0 -
I've been using them for about 2 weeks now, I really don't think they help. I think once I finish this box, I am done with pill gimics. In my opinion the only pills that are likely to work is if they are recommended by a doctor. I've heard mixed reviews about Alli, so I'm not sure I want to dish out $45 for a bottle.
Doctors are not nutritionists, therefore even doctors needlessly prescribe diet pills that don't do ANY thing. Ignore ALL diet pills, diet supplements, magic pills, fad diets. JUST EAT RIGHT AND EXERCISE.0 -
As with most supplements, the benefits of a vitamin/nutrient from a natural source is much better than one from a manufactured pill. It's my understanding that you can only get the benefits of green tea by drinking it. And you have to drink brewed tea, not instant or bottled. The pills don't work.
Diet supplements in general are a waste of money, and some can be dangerous. Almost all of them come with a diet and exercise plan...and THAT is what does the trick as far as weight loss goes.
As for not liking the taste of green tea, there are TONS of "flavors" out there. You should sample them and find one that you like. And when I say "flavors" I'm talking about tea bags with natural flavorings like jasmine, lemon, etc. NOT the bottled stuff.
Do you mean like buying the tea bags and doing it that way?
I was just wondering because I not only warm up hot water and put green tea bags in it but I also buy the cans of "Diet Green Tea" because they are tasty cold.
Just wondering what your opinion was. You sound like you know what you are talking about. =]0 -
Green tea is what does the trick! Try just making cold green tea to drink. It boosts your metabolism. It helped my husband's friend get in great shape. He drank a lot of green tea while working out.0

How long have humans been drinking tea, namely green tea? Let's just say since long before humans could write about it. Do you think that by now people would have caught on to this "miracle" weight-loss supplement? It's tasty and it adds interest to your drinking water. The studies done on its ability to help us lose weight and speed up metabolism are worthless because we don't know what else the participants of the study were doing to lose weight. Popping green tea pills seems like a waste of money. Drinking it is cheaper and has other benefits...like it can keep your hands warm.0

I was just perusing the American Cancer Society's information about green tea. Needless to say, they support it as a possible cancer fighting substance, but NOTHING on there about weight loss. They also warn against excessive intake of the tea due to unpleasant side effects and toxicity concerns.
Meanwhile I'm sure there are PLENTY of websites out there that promote it as weight loss. Why? Because they SELL the products. It's called a marketing program, folks. AND, the companies that make these products do NOT have to get approved by the FDA, so anyone can make any kind of statement about any of their so called "magic pills", and not be held accountable by anyone. How? Because all they have to do is put the words "When used with proper diet and exercise" on the label, and that removes all liability from the magic pill makers.
Please do your research THOROUGHLY before you start posting erroneous information.0 -
I take these! My only supplement. My doctor said they're good because of the antioxidants in them

This.
Your husband friend lost weight due to working out and most likely changing his eating habits.
Green tea does not boost your metabolism to anything noticeable. It's something like 50 cals an hour if that and that is only due to the caffiene when it is in your system. Green tea is nothing special and didn't make him lose weight. I should be stick thin if it did with the amount of green tea I drink.0 -
I tried green tea as part of a diet many years ago. I only bought one packet of tea, and didn't lose any weight. 'Nuff said!0

I have been taking the green tea fat burner pills. In one week I have lost 2lbs. It helps me do my calorie count better and I don't struggle to go work out. I don't have an over abundance of energy. I get the right amount. I love them.0
