I actually take them and like them, a lot! However, I do not think they make me lose any weight, I have only lost 6 pounds in 2-3 months and that was through diet and Jillian, I am sure. If they did what they claim, I would have lost a ton more by now. I have been taking them 3 months. What they do is give me a lot of energy, nice consistent energy all day. Even in the evening I am still going strong, no afternoon yawning. I notice a huge difference when I run out, like today. I meant to go get more today on my way home and forgot. I have been tired all day. I will get more tomorrow and feel so much better after I take them. I take them in the car on the way home and by the time I get home, I am more energized. But it does not feel like a coffee high, I do not crash, and I do not feel jittery. I just feel good and energetic. I tried to go a week without them, just to see if they were really making that big of a difference or if it was my diet. I was so tired all week, made it 5 days and went to get more. Felt so much better that night after taking them, got all my energy back. Now I do not like being dependent on anything, so I am not liking that part. I took the raspberry ones at the same time for the first month, I don't know that they did anything, couldn't tell a difference when I stopped them.

Perhaps, but maybe not. If so, I will take it. It is caffeine, so why wouldn't it give an energy boost? I am not claiming it helps weight loss, but some people sure claim it works for them.

This is known as the placebo effect.
