    Its the first time I have ever heard of this Dr.... so I wasn't sure whether he is a trust-worthy source or a professional helping push supplement sales for a wage...

    The only diet pill I have ever seen work for people are T5's, but they sound to have horrific effects on the body and make you high apparently.
    Hunny, a word of advice....9 out of 10 things that "Doctor" says about weightloss are wrong. Don't listen to him. He's a surgeon masquerading as a nutritionist.

    Eat well. Maintain a calorie deficit. Exercise. That's all you need.

    Advice taken :) I'm an impatient, dieter newbie. 1st time weight gain so I think I am definitely trying to rush the whole process.

    there is no magic bullet. NONE. if there were, nobody would be fat and somebody out there would be really, really rich.

    forget the bad advice you get from people telling you that any of these "get thin quick" products worked. what they are seeing is the placebo effect.

    there is only one way to lose weight... calories in < calories out. that's it. consume less calories than you burn. it's physics and it is the same for everybody.

    Save your money, or at least don't waste it on useless stuff like this.


    Got a food scale yet? That would be a great purchase....
    A food scale has helped me more than any magic pill I tried in the past.

    Wow. That honesty is shocking. I've never heard someone come out and say that.

    I think you're going to be a big success story if you have that kind of self-analytical ability.

    Ha yes, I hope so!
    I put the weight on. Not hormones, age, under active thyroid or any of the other excuses I could kid myself with. Eating the same portion sizes as my 15stone boyfriend, takeaways and share-size bars of Galaxy put the lard on. I will lose it, if I do it properly. If I don't, I haven't done it right.
    Hun, with that sort of attitude, you're going to do just fine.

    The weight didn't creep on overnight, and unfortunately, it won't go away overnight either.

    This link will answer a LOT of questions for you, and will help guide you in the right direction.

    Good luck, but I don't think you need it. You sound like you're going to do just fine.

    I will check that out!

    Thank you :)

    I tried um for 2 months... shrug noticed no difference in those months and any others where I was watching calories and exercising. I have known some who see a difference but soon as they stop taking them the lbs come back. It could work for you but then you will be taking them forever to keep the same weight off.

    Sadly there is no real shortcut for weightloss but the sense of acomplishment once you have made a difference in your own body is worth it!

    Think of it this way: if even one of the 20 previous things he said would work, actually worked, he wouldn't have needed to mention this one in the first place. :)

    It's the new Acai berry scam.

    Hype.....calories in calories out! (my husband tells me that all the time) I love this plan:) My sister did the HCG drops yes she lost...cause she was eating only 500 calories a day! In the end it came back.

    I used them and still do from time to time they do take the edge off my carb cravings when I'm not intermittent fasting.

    You mention not eating a lot of fats in Induction. You should reconsider. Not eating enough fat will make you hungry, also possibly fatigued.

    With other stressors it could even make you dead. Look up rabbit starvation.

    The low carb diet would be more accurately described as the high fat diet, but no one would have gone on it under that name. You need enough fat to make Atkins work.

    I bought a bag of the chews at GNC last week since it was B1/G1 and I got my yummy calcium chews....I digress, anyways, I don't feel any difference yet but I will probably know better at least after a week. No side affects or anything like that either. I figured I'd try them since they were free...:laugh:
