    In the event that there was a magic pill, which there isn't, it would not be available over the counter. The pharmaceutical companies would be all over that.

    This!!!! I have a friend that loves her diet pills. She lost 10 lbs one time & gained them back almost immediately. Not to mention that diet pills arent good for you.

    I know loads of people are against any "diet pills". I am currently using a "Irvingia seed extract" and "Green tea" supplement. It works for me. And in the end that is all that counts right? Do your own thing. Good luck!!

    Ps. There is no "magic" pill, where you can take a pill and still eat all the junk you did in the past. Weight loss is all about putting in the hard work. That is the mistake most people make when taking a pill. Don't do that. Get something that will HELP you along.

    Im using it now and in conjuction with watching my diet, in 7 days I lost 11 lbs. Of course some of that was water weight, so waiting to see what happens this week. But I would say yes, it works.

    you don't have to spend 200, I bought mine of amazon and I paid 19.99 per bottle, I do take 3 of these a day to equal the 1500 mg
    your supposed to take daily. and of course as with any diet pill, you have to eat healthy.

    I've been taking them as well however haven't seen any change at all... not sure why. I'll likely stop taking them as they do not appear to have any effect; at least not on me. Good luck!

    My wife and i was using it as well, good results but honestly you are painting yourself in a corner with the aid of something besides real food. We knew sooner or later we would have had to give it up so we just bit the bullet early. Nothing you cant do on your own, put that money to good use, Buy food <3

    if these pills REALLY worked, you wouldn't be able to afford them!!!! They would be so popular that the supple would deplete and only the wealthy would be buying them. So if you can buy it at Wally World---then NO a pill is just a pill........But you DO need to take supplements...B12 and Vit D are the most important ones in weight loss.

    I'm gonna save you a fortune and share the true secret to sustainable weight loss.

    Shhhh.... Don't tell anyone...

    Eat less or move more. Or both. :laugh: :laugh:

    All joking aside, there really is no other way to sustainable weight loss but calorie reduction and/or exercise.

    The only thing that is going to stay lighter over time by taking the latest diet pill is your wallet, IMHO.

    Anything that is going to give you dramatic results won't be sold over the counter. A lot of people have had luck with phentermine, but in my experience and based on what my doctor has told me, when you stop taking it the medicine causes your brain to release some chemical that tells your body to eat more. So basically you will gain the weight back once you stop taking it.
    Just eat right and work out. Its the only long term solution.

    For those of you that say it's working for you...how do you know? You're likely eating at a calorie deficit already, so is the pill really doing anything or is it likely just a placebo effect?

    I have tried every pill on the market, from Xenical to Xenadrine/Hydroxycut, and many more "fat burners", to my own made up ECA stack. While they may have worked in the short term, either from an overdose of caffeine and/or ephedra for energy, or the placebo effect and your braining thinking "well, I put this stuff in my system, I better work it off", nothing works as good as the old saying, eat less, move more. There is no pill available for long term results. Hard work and determination is all you need. I read a study saying for one NEW, AMAZING pill that there was not enough of the "active" ingredient to actually do what they say it can. If you can part with your money and try something, then by all means. But just be mindful that chances are your being duped and you will not see the results your expecting. Have a happy day!

    Oh yeah, they also say, in very small print, when used in conjunction with diet and exercise. Moving more, eating less, who'da thunk

    There is some evidence that this works on fat storage--as there is on other, less expensive supplements such as L-carnitine--but no evidence so far on humans. Probably not a great investment. Investing in quality foods and exercise opportunities that make a new lifestyle a habit is a much better investment.

    ok so I know there is no magic pill or drink for sure. but I just started plexus which has this stuff in it. also using a calorie defecit to lose. I lost 8 lbs and 3 inches in 9 days. its not anything magic for sure it just curbs my appetite so that I can stick to my diet. if that's what u mean when u ask does it work then yes it can work.... but u still gotta sacrifice calories to lose weight. that's just my opinion.

    From what I've read, which is not extensive, it has been successful in some clinical trials as an appetite suppresant when combined with other plant extracts. But it is nothing magical. There are a number of appetite suppresants available. The problem is that most people who overeat do not do so because they are hungry.

    You didn't lose 8 lbs of fat in 9 days.

    If pills worked, no one would be overweight. Eat at a small caloric deficit, it's free.

    If you want to try them, go ahead. But don't spend $200. That's crazy. Do some research online and I'm sure you can find them for cheaper, just make sure they are a quality supplement. I have tried them, but they didn't work for me. I have tried lots of things once, some worked and some didn't. Some worked when I was younger, but don't now. I don't think you are planning to eat like a pig and take the pills, expecting an overnight cure. I think it's a combination of things together that help us to lose weight, and everyone is different. What works for one, may not work for someone else. When people ask how I've lost the weight that I have so far, I tell them it's not just one thing. It has been a combination of a few different things. It's all trial and error, but what's important is that you get where you want to be and learn things along the way.

    If you know they generally don't work then why are you asking if anyone has tried it.

    Do the work. It's not rocket science. No pill can save you. Not trying to be mean, just honest.
