ACE diet pills, do they work??

This question is a success story?

Wanna know what actually does work????? eating less and moving more:flowerforyou:

i prefer DEUCE diet pills

I.m taking them. Yes they work as long as your willing to eat under your calories and excersize. They work for curbing your appetite and energy making it easier for me to stay under my calorie intake.

how do you know the pills are making you lose and not the fact that your simply eating at a deficit and exercising?

Exactly! If you are eating right and exercising, you are going to have more energy and not be as hungry. There is no magic pill.

I understand your question and I don't really know if they work because you're changing your lifestyle with it (eating less and moving more).

Also, I understand people's disdain for diet pills, but come on-- many of us have tried them. I know I have. Don't be hard on someone because they asked a question that many of us have asked ourselves before. Who hasn't wanted a quick fix? I get mad all the time that I gained so much weight and want to lose it quicker than how I gained it.

If you get snarky comments on here OP, just ignore it. There are really nice and inspirational people on here...and then they are meany-faces.

Hey- looking for anyone who's taking ACE, heard alot of good things- just wondering if they work. Thanks!!!

Yes, they work. I have a friend who is taking them.

what happens to your friend when they stop taking them? I just don't understand diet pills. What is so horrible about monitoring your intake and exercising that make people think a magic pill will fix their trigger hand to the snack bowl?

Well said Bravo!!!! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

My daughter and i both tried them, they didn't help us at all.

I take them and they do curb your appetite. However, the biggest plus for me is the added boost (caffeine) i get from them. I have been involved with a long project where I work long hours and feel exhausted...... they have helped me keep up my work out schedule in addition to work tasks. They have also helped me totally give up diet coke, coffee (almost....) because of the caffeine.

I believe in hard work and eating right....but if there is something that will help.....go for it!

I don't know about ACE pills, but I think it's interesting that people are so unwilling to think that *any* diet pill has *any* effect. The argument seems to be that if you eat under your calorie output, and exercise, and take diet pills, then what's creating the effect is just the diet and exercise- since those alone will have you losing weight.

Well, folks, from that argument, you may as well not exercise. Dieting to calorie deficit alone will have you lose weight. Exercise without shifting diet generally will not. Therefore exercise doesn't work? No one would say that. Some diet pills may actually help burn some extra calories, or help curb appetite (read: diet). Giving the effects of better diet a boost. Just like exercise supports diet.

I take ACE..and I love them. Probably not the pill that actually makes you loose weight..but they give me the energy to get off my butt and do something..They do have caffeine..but it is a natural caffeine...I was addicted to Mtn. Dew, and I have given it up..I am totally satisfied with my ACE and a bottle of water...And they also help curb my appetite. To each their own..but in my opinion, it's a pretty good investment.

That's what I was thinking! Stop looking for shortcuts people, because there are none.

If you are rolling in dough and have lots of extra money to waste, can I "borrow" (never to be repaid) some money??

I have never understood the concept of taking a caffeine pill to give me energy when I have a nice coffeemaker, a good bean grinder and access to high quality whole bean coffee. Delicious.

I have been taking 1 pill a day for the past week and I have already lost 8 pounds. I eat whenever I am hungry but I try to make "healthy" food choices and I drink lots and Lots and LOTS of water. I also move around alot and exercised for about 45 minutes twice during that week. I will continue using ACE until I get close to my ideal weight. I am taking ACE for the "appetite control" portion, not the energy. I did not notice a "huge" increase in energy I guess because I am use to having more than that amount of caffine.

Sorry for any typos. Any questions, message me

I don't have experience with ACE but I have taken (and lost 60 lbs) using phentermine. When I was taking the pills I just was not hungry-I had to remind myself to eat so of course I lost weight. The problem with diet pills (IMO) is they fool you into thinking you are doing all the hard work and will be able to maintain that weight loss. Once you stop the pills (for most people) you gain it all back because you haven't learned how to deal with the cravings, emotional eating, fast food etc. It's easy with the pill because you just don't want those fattening foods. I have been counting cals/exercising for 3 months now and I have lost 16.5 lbs. It's so stinking hard to really honestly try and ( trust me I am making major changes in my diet) and only lose one lb a week. But I decided this time I am in it for the long haul. I know it will take me close to a year and a half to lose the weight and I am FINALLY OK with that. I have been on every diet and diet pill imaginable-I really honestly believe the only way to do this is by learning to control your food and get into a regular exercise routine. Until we all do that we are just going to yo yo forever. But I would still LOVE to lose 8 lbs in one week......that is the lure of those dang pills!!!
