I took no doze and a pot of coffee every morning to boost my metabolism. Surprised I lived through it.

In my early twenties I took yellow jackets....ephedrine. Lost weight, yeah, but NOT a good way of doing so.0
-
multiple vitamin supplements that probably just ripped up my stomach for a few months.0
-
Cambridge Diet for 8 weeks. Survived on 3 shakes and 100g or so of chicken a day for 7 weeks. Lost 2stone and fit in to my wedding dress...so as awful as it was it was worth it - NEVER again though.
Took ephidrine (lots!) and lost a fair but - also had heart palpitations!
Seriously too many stupid stupid things to mention! So glad to be doing it slowly and safely now!0 -

What is no doze?
It's just a high dose of caffeine (200mg), and a few inactive ingredients0 -
stopped eating0

I dont think iv actually had anything bad.
Iv had alot of ideas, but never put any of them into place..
I think the worse thing i did was proberlly wrapping myself in cling film, so that when i exercised i sweated more....
But i only did it once it was a bit un-comfy.0 -

I did Cambridge no food though just the shakes, had to stop as my depression kicked back in and put all the weight back on plus an extra stone.0 -
I have done literally every bad thing in the book, and the depressing thing is, I've never even been overweight, but I was anorexic as a teenager, and really did every cliche going.0

nothing,I only gained weight about 4 years ago before that I never had issues with my weight.So when I was ready to lose it about a year ago I started going to the gym and watching what I ate0

Used some horrid tasting herbal supplements that I bought at the mall. I'm not sure if they had ephedra in them or if it was some herbal cocktail that had the same effect. I lost about 20 pounds but it made my heart race and I am pretty sure it jacked up my stomach for life as I now have heartburn daily.0
-
cabbage soup diet....you just eat cabbage soup daily, with a few other treats like veggies and certain fruits.....(still don't like cabbage sou:P!) and it was just a quick loss that came back on even more quickly! Life style change is the way to go.....0

Well to be honest I spent about 2 years hopeing it would magically go away on its own :laugh: but ive never taken pills or done any kind of diet0 -
I have ALWAYS had a weight problem even since childhood and I have probably done every stupid and bad diet in the world....including yellow jackets by prescription, herbal concoctions, and a round of bulimia as a teenager. Every time I just gained back more than I had lost. Now with severe health problems and a nutritionist I am doing it the right way.0

Became vegetarian. It was traumatic. I am definitely an omnivore...0
