Weights or a book on common exercises. Anything else is either a rip-off, gimmick, or likely going to stress out your kidneys and liver. There are no shortcuts.

golferd

If they had a drug that worked like that. You could not get in the door due to the demand for the product, and no one would be fat.

A good multivitamin

AnvilHead

Do they sell self-discipline and hard work there? If so, those would be the two best things you could buy. There's no shortcut to losing weight and getting fitter. There's no such thing as a magic pill/potion - it takes work and dedication.

Hard work, exercise and healthy eating!!!!

Protein powder
Much of what GNC and stores like it sell is gimicky. You can find multiple articles on line talking about the that of effectiveness with the various "supplements" Be very careful going down that road and make sure you know what it is you're putting in your body. Many of the "diet and energy" pills are simply large doses of caffeine wrapped in mystery substance.

Look you already posted this and everyone told you that there is no miracle pill.

Either start eating correct(healthier foods and correct proportions) or deal with it.

Once again, you didn't get fat in one day you wont lose fat in one day. It takes work and dedication.

I didn't buy these at GNC. I got a performance formula multi for women vitamin and a co-q 10. Not sure if ti actually "helps" with weight loss, but I'm making sure I am getting all my vitamins

Isn't it amusing when people don't like hearing "There are no shortcuts" and they post more threads?

Yes, yes it is. I should pop some popcorn just in case there's a 3rd!

CLA supplements seem to help me and make a difference.

Y'know what?

These are the same kinds of people you read about in magazines or the news dying because they've taken X dangerous drug and ended up overheating so badly that they have a heart attack.

I'll not quote the drug i'm referring to, but it's WELL known. And no, i'm not referring to speed/meth, but that does end in the same result.

No doubt...

...but seriously, what can I buy?

Tropical_Turtle

aww didnt like the answers you got the first time - because you were told there are no real shortcuts? How about you eat right, work out and take care of yourself. There is no quick fix.

A coffin. Because if you get that desperate you'll end up doing something that you'll need one for

Biotin (vitamin b)
aids metabolism and gives you nice hair and nails. They also have a good selection of multi vitamins and protein powder. I would say get some low calorie whey protein powder, a multi vitamin and some of those emergen-C packets.

I would say those things will help you with weight loss because if you are reducing your caloric intake and working out you want to make sure your body is getting everything it needs or you will become weak and lethargic and hungry and mess it all up.

I am not 100% against appetite suppressants, but only very mild, non caffeinated ones and i think you might only need them for the first week when you are craving really unhealty food or junk. once you start eating healthy you wont need them.

and finally, if you are looking for something like a pill to boost your calorie burn before a work out, they have those too but i really don't recommend you make a habit of using them because they mess up your bodys natural schedule of hunger and energy.

you feel all this fake energy and think you are full when actually you are starving. then you cant make it through a day without them. they are kind of evil. but if you do get them i would only take it once in a blue moon, similar to a cup of coffee to get you going IF you have eaten enough and IF you really just cant get motivated to work out.

again, i dont think you need any kind of diet pill at all after the first week again because your body and metabolism will start to heal itself from clean eating, water and exercise and you will have tons of natural energy.

then you will lose weight

those are my opinions but what the hell do i know

innocenceportrayed

Yes, I do believe I'll take two hits of crack with my dinner tonight. That'll make you not wanna eat. -___-

Apparently, someone hasn't heard of BLUEBERRY ketones yet.

Next. Big. Thing.

windycitycupcake

what is a raspberry ketone? i'm googling it

sionnain

Flaxseed oil is good to add but again it won't speed up the process. Only make you healthier!

Was a manager at gnc for 5 years. I can tell you with certainty and confidence nothing is going to make you lose weight except for you. You may find things to decrease appetite or give you energy. Both are temporary and may cause other health problems. Chances are once you stop them you will go back to your former habits. And I have seen many people who felt far hungrier after diet pills wore off. You may find very high priced products to "cleanse, but what you lose is not fat. And the side effects can be disgusting. They have meal replacement shakes. That still comes down to calories restriction. Why spend the money on that when you can limit to those same calories and eat things that taste good.
Vitamins are good for you for the most part.
The really interesting thing I learned while I worked there was that it was much easier to help those trying to gain weight than lose.
There are a lot of supplements there that will help with many things so I am in no way downing GNC. However, weight loss is better achieved with hard work and a change in your food habits. It is also more permanent if you find a way of life you can stick to.

When given to mice in very high doses (up to 2% of body weight), raspberry ketone has been shown to prevent high-fat-diet-induced elevations in body weight.[8]

However, no effects on body weight were observed with doses up to 200 times greater than the estimated intake in humans.[9]

The high dose effect is reported to stem from the alteration of lipid metabolism, increasing norepinephrine-induced lipolysis.

Although products containing this compound are marketed for weight loss, there is no clinical evidence for this effect in humans.

i agree for the most part. those diet pills are only a quick fix and i don't think should be taken on a regular basis.

i don't like meal replacements. they are super high in calories and dinky little portions. they make me starve. id rather have oatmeal, yogurt, fruit, nuts, egg white omlette, sauteed spinach, toast...all that food for the same caloric intake and im stuffed
