Has anyone tried Sensa? It seems to good to be true, but am, considering giving it a try. Taste/effectiveness? Any feedback?

    I read this review on Sensa a while back and decided against trying it:

    So maybe try the onion powder and crushed smarties for a while and see how that goes. lol

    They now sell it at Costco by the 50 gallon drum. You're set. :flowerforyou:

    Save your money. MFP is a fantastic resource, with lots of support. Weight loss is not easy, but it can be done. (I weighed nearly 200 lbs after my 2nd child was born, and less than 130 lbs now.)

    Unfortunately, the only way it can be done is by eating less, moving more, or doing both. I hate these snake oil salesmen.

    However, if you really feel compelled to try it, please google "sensa" and "complaints" and see what the search results have to offer.

    With or without products, I wish you every success - and I accept all friend requests.

    It's a scam. If it's too good to be true then it is.

    When I saw the commercial my jaw fell to the floor. And I wondered how many people saw this stuff...this magic powder they could sprinkle on their food and lose weight without trying and thought...OMG...it's finally here! There is the answer! I haven't tried it, but I knew from the moment I saw it that it was a scam. Sorry!!

    =) Nope. My mom has tried it before and it only made it worse. I've asked tons of friends and people who have tried it and it is just like sprinkling crushed smarties and onion powder on your food. Seriously. I advice you to use the good old fashioned way; eating smaller portions of healthy food and exercising. ^.^ GOOD LUCK! <3

    One of the ladies at work tried it, she lost weight the first month and it was pretty effortless, but after that she only maintained. She is not going to buy it again.

    I've wanted to try it for so long, but I keep reading bad reviews. You can't get an honest review over three out of five starts. There are too many complaints listed also. So for a hundred bucks I decided not to try it. If it were 20 bucks I would have. So I tried something else for $20, and I noticed I wasn't eating in between meals any more, but it altered the taste of the food in a bad way, so I decided to just enjoy my food. If you want to know what it is, message me.

    The fine print on these ads always tells you that a product works "in conjunction with a calorie controlled diet and regular exercise," or similar. Ask her why she's not buying it again - maybe it wasn't the Sensa.

    See, now I'm gonna sell my famous raisinets diet and just tell people to eat one raisinet per day with each snack and meal and then quote the above bolded part and get rich and famous off my book. *smh*

    I sprinkle dried, ground up cow dung on my food, and it suppresses my appetite beautifully. It's cheaper and just as effective!

    I just sprinkle some of the sand from my cats' litter box. Works just as well and easier to get than cow plop. Maybe I should try marketing it instead of throwing it away. I've probably been putting thousands of dollars out in the trash every day.

    I am pretty sure it is just fiber. Either way - If you don't plan on using it for the rest of your life...don't do it. Learn the proper way of eating smaller proportions.

    I have never tried it but I think sends is amongst the worst crap they try to sell us.... Sprinkle that magic over your food and you'll look like those models dancing on the beach...

    My mom tried it because she's easily duped by all those stupid diet gimmicks (sensa, ketones, green tea, etc.).

    She said that it was like someone took amphetamines and crushed them up on top of her food. She totally freaked out on that stuff.

    Just. Say. NO.

    Maybe it makes the food taste like crap so you end up throwing up or not eating it. LOL

    Not even sure i know what it is... But, anything outside of facing the demons in your head straight on, improving your diet, eating less than you burn and exercise will truly bring about the lasting mental, emotional, spiritual and physical changes most people hope for!

    I tried it once. It made me sick. Not sure if it was the milk, as I am lactose intolerant. No taste at all. I say its not worth the money. spend that money on an awesome gym membership!!

    A lot of people are fooled by gimmicks, or gimmicks would go away (and Dr. Oz would not have a show.)

    My son said, "Mommy, I saw some stuff on TV that you sprinkle on your food you eat so you won't get fat. Why don't you get some of that so you can eat sometimes?"

    (He's six years old, so just hasn't learned yet, but we've all bought into some idea or product in the past that was a scam. I once tried the vinegar diet! Bleah.)
