    Bad Idea! Enough said. The side effects outweigh the benefits all the time.

    Bad.

    Boils down to being a waste of money...you can get the same outcome by changing your diet, without the side effects.

    If it was a good idea nobody would make money from it, because it would work and there would be no fat people....

    IMO - bad idea. I have tried almost everything over the years and have been disappointed every time. Save your money and follow a sensible eathing and exercise routine and you will get there faster than relying on a diet pill.

    Think about it this way: if diet pills worked, they would be manufactured and sold by the huge pharmaceutical corporations, not a shady side market that pays off doctors to make ludicrous claims.

    If you need to ask you know the answer.
    FYI: If you use the search facility before writing a topic you might save some time and not get sarcastic snarky responses :flowerforyou:

    As much as we would all like to believe.. there are no shortcuts...Diet pills don't keep the wieght off and sometimes the side affects are worst than if you would just bite the bullet and work hard at excercise and eating right.

    Bad idea, think of it this way, you might lose weight on it but once you quit taking it, what has your body learned? To rely on a pill to lose weight, that's about all so you will most likely gain it all back plus some.

    They're a great idea! I take them whenever I have a big home project to completely or an all-night party to attend.


    But they don't do anything for weight loss... it's just that they're more easily accessible than meth.

    I think some can get you high. So if you're into that sort of thing, they *may* be a good fit for you.

    Oh, did you mean for weight loss? :laugh: Don't be a sucker.

    THEY are Really really bad idea! You're in the wrong place hun for diet pills support. It's a life style change. Pills are temporary and can really affect your health in a bad way.

    Most are basically thermogenics and green tea shiz.

    Just spend that money on food, peppers, tea, chicken breasts. You can learn to eat right forever, not take a pill forever!

    Plus if you take the pill and do no exercise then nothing will happen. Minus the pill and exercise something will!

    Great idea!
    But only for the company selling them.

    I take Lipozene that I get from Walmart (a double pack for just under $20 and no shipping), and I seem to lose more weight than when I've not been taking them. I was on them for almost two weeks and was losing daily, then quit taking them to see if they really made a difference. After about three weeks without them, I would gain and lose the same 2-3 pounds no matter how much I exercised, and I was staying within my food goals daily. I guess it depends on the individual, but I know it helped me. I'm back on them and have been losing again.
