    I'm worried they might affect my mood negatively. Have you experienced anything similar to that while using them?

    it seems some people are happy to ignore community guidelines and then tell people " honest opinion" unfortunately we live in a society that does not like admitting the culture of bullying still goes on but in the disguise of honesty, banter or jokes.

    Some people find it hard to lose weight initially, some find using supplements help while they make the transition from rubbish overproccessed food marketed to us as "healthy" to real healthy fresh produce.

    Sometimes there are medical problems that have not been diagnosed due to healthcare providers assuming people are not trying or simply because some people find it too expensive to seek medical treatment.

    Some places it actually does cost more to eat fresh produce and some places you would need a mortgage to buy organic.

    But while we may not always agree with what is posted, it is always nicer to be polite just like the guidelines want:-

    MyFitnessPal Site-wide Community Guidelines

    1. No Attacks or Insults and No Reciprocation

    a) Do not attack, mock, or otherwise insult others. You can respectfully disagree with the message or topic, but you cannot attack the messenger. This includes attacks against the user’s spelling or command of written English, or belittling a user for posting a duplicate topic.
    b) If you are attacked by another user, and you reciprocate, you will also be subject to the same consequences. Defending yourself or a friend is not an excuse! Do not take matters into your own hands – instead, use the Report Post link to report an attack and we will be happy to handle the situation for you.

    OP why not just stick to diet (using MFP as a calorie counter and stay under your calorie goal) and exercise? If you are willing to do that, you will lose weight. Do something you can stick with for the rest of your life, not just a temporary fix. Good luck.

    And the only one who attacked anyone is the OP.

    No one here bullied anyone. That word gets thrown around so much on this board it's ridiculous and the more it's used to describe posts that aren't bullying it is giving less importance to when it ACTUALLY happens.

    Blunt honest answers =/= bullying
    Blunt honest answers =/= unsupportive

    So I wanted an ALL NATURAL weight loss supplement or dietary supplement to start taking along with exercise and changing my eating habits. I found a supplement called Doctor's Select Natraceuticals Weight Loss 4, which includes Green Coffee bean extract, Raspberry keytones, garcinia cambogia and white mulberry. So far i love it, it makes me feel like it is cleaning my system out, and im not as lazy and tired as i usually was. Has anyone else tried this for a longer period then 3 days, with any results?

    Or do you have any other supplements that you might like?

    I like broccoli, kale, or spinach. Steam or roast with seasonings and just a little olive oil. They are all natural, healthy, and if you eat them every day, they are guaranteed to help you lose weight *. They can be found at any grocery store.

    * In additon to a low calorie balanced diet

    wow y'all are kinda all a**holes. this is suppose to be a supportive community, it was a simple question. I don't need smart a** answers, if you don't have positive and helpful answers then keep the comments to yourself. If you don't even know what the hell I'm asking keep the **** to yourself. I asked if anyone has used it, simple answer should be NO or YES and what you got out of it. Everything else you can honestly shove back up your a** because it doesn't mean **** to me.

    I haven't used any type supplement ever. And I thought several people were rude to you also!

    If I buy you a pony, will I be in the nice club?

    you are so funny...NOT!
    YOU are rude and nobody is laughing.

    I really hope this all natural and organic fad dies a quick painful death. I doubt it will, but I'm holding out hope.

    Um, I'm nearly 53 yo and the all natural and organic fad has been around longer than I, so you are probably out of luck. (depending on what you consider "quick")

    Sooo.... for people that want to try these pills and think everyone is rude, can you step away and think about this objectively? If you went to the Vitamin Shoppe and was trying to buy a protein powder that claimed it would keep you full for 8 hours and the guy there said, "I wouldn't waste your money on that, there's nothing special in it" would you be pissed? Wouldn't you say, "Thank you kind employee for not letting me piss away my money on something that isn't special?"

    Likewise, imagine you are at GNC buying these magical pills and you ask for experience. What if the employee says, "You know, they don't actually have any proven benefits so I wouldn't waste my money on them." Would you call them rude and storm out.

    no - maybe you'd have a light bulb moment.

    Take what you want but when someone is trying to save me money.... I'm usually grateful.

    ETA: Why does it seem like everyone is so freaking sensitive all the time?




    People WERE rude and continue to be so. Why not simply answer the question in a helpful way. The OP did not start out being rude, she asked a sincere question. It was a sincere question where she was looking for knowledge. Some people helped some did not.

    If people can dish out the hatefulness then they should be prepared to get some of it back.

    I am not sensitive in the slightest --my opinions count just like the next. I am here to try to help anyone I can, if I can't I certainly am not going to try to knock them down further or use jokes so it appears I am not being passive aggressive.

    I bet a million dollars that had she asked a person, IN PERSON, this same question she would of gotten a sincere thought out answer.

    BTW, I think she did get some very helpful answers too.

    I tried the Green Tea thing a year ago. Bloody awful! My bowels loosened and one day I had to leave early from a nice wedding because I had an accident, if you know what I mean!!! What a mess!

    As everyone on here says it is about doing something long term and for the rest of your life. Quick fixes are just that. We all need a good long fix. As my work colleague says eat sensibly and exercise.

    Good luck in you weight management but think about the long term.:smile:

    accusation of bullying.

    now i can end my day satisfied (and with a full bingo card!)

    that said, these products are money-sucks and not worth it. just eat at a deficit, hit your macros, and let your organs do the work that science intended them to.

    hold onto your money.

    I now fully understand why the MFP bingo card was invented. I've seen several threads lately that would result in a full card by the end of page 2. It's kinda frightening really.

    Also, I like how the OP was the one who started swearing and name calling but it's everyone else that was rude. :huh:
