    It helped me lose 25 lbs after having my daughter. but once I got to the point where I wasn't considered "overweight" I couldn't lose anymore pounds so I stopped taking it.

    I just started taking it this week. I am hoping between that and following a better, low fat diet, it will aid in the weight loss.

    It worked for my wife, it wasn't something she wanted to stay on in the long term, but it help drop her a few pounds to start out.

    I tried to myself for a month and didn't experience ANY ill effects. I was a bit disappointed and felt like I wasted my money. Granted I didn't really WANT to see any effects, I wanted to know it was at least doing something.

    I tried it...and HATED IT! It gave me the trots :) and oily gas...I ruined some pants! Was not a fan of it. But...good luck if you try it! Maybe they changed the formula since I tried it, I used it about 4 years ago...or longer.
