    Lol ok so by now most of the pill "haters" know me, and hate me :-D

    ANYWHO I have used phentermine with great success, it has a RISK of high blood pressure but so does drinking a caffeinated beverage. I have also Used Oxy Elite Pro and LOVE it (this one is OTC) I do not get "high" or "jittery" (though I did learn to not even combine phetermine and a coke... unless you want crazy pingy upbeat Heather, like more then normal upbeat, you wonder if Ive turned into a bouncy ball kind of upbeat) I would NEVER, EVER, EVER use hydroxycut again :)

    NOW my preachey portion. You NEED to use the pills as an AIDE not a miracle or Yes you will gain it back. For many of us when learning to eat right & in smaller portions a diet aide is VERY helpful. We also can learn which foods fill us up quicker (and if youre spacey or have a child writing this down really is helpful) enabling us to make better food choices when we stop our "diet pills"

    So Now I shall climb off my soap box and allow the pill haters to jump on

    yeah i have to watch what i drink with the oxy, after a bad night i stopped and got a Rockstar which i used to drink constanstly. i did not notice any problems of diffrences but my co workers said i was talking faster than an auctioneer

    I think we all know that eating right and exercising is the only REAL answer but I must tell you that I keep a bottle of dexatrim around to use when I know I'm going into a high temptation situation, and I find that it is enough to keep me from gorging on appetizers, mindless snacking, whatever. I only take them once in a while.

    If you really wanna try one I'd just get those $4 green tea pills. I swear no idet pill IMO gives you great results & you're better off saving your money & getting those! Still gave me NO results but some people think they curb your appetite.

    Okay, I've tried Oxyelite Pro and Hydroxycut, and here's how my experience went.

    OEP
    -take 3 capsules each day
    -results- definitely lowered my appetite, lost 22 pounds while i was on it, had stronger workouts and felt more focused (prob from the caffeine)
    -side effects - sweat!! a little bit of anxiety, headaches, overall restlessness

    Hydroxycut
    -take 6 capsules a day
    -results- lost 12 pounds while i was on it, more enegry
    -side effects -sweating again, headaches

    I was on Xenical (Orlistat/Alli) for a while a couple of years ago, prescribed by my GP. It did help a bit but didn't make a huge difference, I think because my diet was not particularly high in fat in the first place. I think I was overweight because of excess carbs/alcohol/calories, not excess fat.

    I know some people who have had good results with it, although from what I hear the side-effects if you eat anything high in fat are pretty horrendous :-/
