Need help! - green coffee bean and rasberry ketone

For once in my life Im not trying to take the easy way out.... just trying to give myself a bit of a boost. Going to try and take the green coffee been and the rasberry ketone together. Girl at GNC said I wont see results right away... will take at least 2 weeks to do something. Hopefully will have some good feedback!

it won't give you a boost. It'll just make you lose from your wallet.... it's a con, basically. They want the money of people who are desperate to lose weight... which is how you describe yourself in your OP.

you've tried all this stuff before (not raspberry ketones, but other kinds of diet pills) and it hasn't worked for you. That's because they don't work for anyone. Maybe in the short term, but the weight piles back on. This time you need to do something radically different, in fact you need to change your whole mindset.

- don't focus on losing weight quickly, focus on how you're going to maintain your goal weight for life. I know you're not at goal yet, but what you do now to lose weight, you'll have to keep doing to maintain it, so you need to ensure that whatever changes you make, you can stick to them for life.

- instead of trying to find the next diet, make small, sustainable lifestyle changes, e.g. doing some kind of physical activity that you enjoy and will be able to stick to. Find ways to make your favourite meals healthier, e.g. substituting ingredients, adding more fruit/veg etc.

- set your goal on MFP for 1lb a week loss, and eat all your MFP calories and also eat back exercise calories. This may seem slow, but what you are aiming at is long term maintenance, so it doesn't matter if you take longer to get there as you're going to stay at your goal weight for life.

- use a kitchen scale to weigh your food so your food diary is accurate. Log your exercise carefully and honestly

- enjoy your food... in order to stay in your goal you will need to be careful about portion sizes, you'll need to make a few healthy substitutions and some foods you won't be able to have as often, but you still should aim to really enjoy your food, because this is a new lifestyle change that you're going to maintain, so you stay at your goal for life. You're not trying to punish or torture yourself, you're simply learning how to enjoy eating while taking in fewer calories so you can slowly and steadily lose fat until you're at your goal weight, then stay there for life because you really enjoy your new lifestyle.

- some exercises are more beneficial than others, exercises that work your muscles hard are important.... but the most important thing is that you'll stick to it in the long term, so your main criteria for choosing any exercise or physical activity is enjoyment and being able to stick to it. So do what you enjoy and what's easy for you to keep on doing.

The op doesn't want advice it seems. She hasn't responded at all to anyone's comments.

For sure my fav quote "you can out eat a good exercise program but you can't out exercise a good diet"

Hey whatever is going to help Ill take a chance and try it. If it don't work only thing I loose is $10.. Why am I a sucker for that?

Welcome to the placebo effect. If you want to throw your money away, give it to a charity.

It's always a good idea to read amazon reviews for things like this. The amazon reviews are very misleading in this case though. NEVER trust a company that gives incentives to get god reviews. This company offer free bottles of pills in exchange for positive reviews which I think stinks. There are a lot of negative reviews and unhappy customers.

There is no easy way to loose weight and keep it off. Self-regulation is like a muscle, you need to practice your will power and it will get easier and easier to resist. You also need to learn to walk away from treats. Same as everything in life, you need self-control and to work hard. If you learn the good eating and exercise routines they will become sencond nature and will always help you.

Hi I just bought the Green Coffee Bean diet pills last night. I heard many great things about them. They are not going to work unless you go on a low calorie diet and excercise at least a little bit. They help with the weight loss. If you are doing My Fitness Pal and staying within your daily calories and take the Coffee Bean, It is supposed to help you loose twice the weight. Good Luck!

The only way you will lose weight with those pills is due to the low calorie diet and the exercise. A pill will not make you lose twice the weight. It's a load of crap. I would return them if you can as they are simply a waste of money.

A diet pill company can say whatever they want. Their claims are not reviewed by the FDA and there is really no proof to any of their claims.

Green Coffee Bean Extract and Raspberry Ketones: Truth or Hype? - http://s.shr.lc/14pyPDc

The raspberry keytones can not only impair your weight loss, they can INCREASE weight gain- not to mention raise your blood pressure. Don't believe everything a TV doctor says.

The raspberry ketones are horrible! The green coffee bean do work for me though and I do agree with a multivitamin, but I did not take the green coffee bean for long. I also took it to jumpstart and get me going and I do agree it worked, but I only took them for a month and then that was it. You shouldn't have to rely on them after that. I don't know why they would suggest you take both, that I would say is just a money grab for sure!

Good luck on your journey!

I take kelp, clp?, vitamin b, super b complex, 5-htp, calcium and maybe another vitamin. Anyway, I've noticed that I'm not as hungry as normal when I take the vitamins. I take them at night though, because 5-htp makes you tired. I use the 5-htp to balance my emotions, since having my baby...but it's been known to help with weight loss too.

I also took MFP calories down by 200 and I'm actually losing now. go figure :P

Gimmicks, methinks.
