Ok so I took this pill!!!!

Options
Ok I just Tried that pill.! Lets see if it works on me!!!!I will wait for 30min before I eat my breakfast.

I was skeptical about it but...
Last night I stayed up researching it further and I read alot of interesting infor on it!

Sometimes when I have my meals I still FEEL like I want to eat more sometimes so I believe this will just COMPLIMENT my weight loss efforts.

In case anyone is wondering what I am taking about... I was telling Carol about this new weight loss program that is about to hit the airwaves Sept 1!!

It is from a company called XXXXXX and they have a pill that is suppose to do what gastic bypass does for patience .. you take one pill 30minutes before you eat and it expands in your stomach so you feel fuller faster.

The pill is called XXXXX...
XXXXXX capsules are filled with a water expanding polymer substance that has the consistency of applesauce. The polymer substance expands in your stomach reducing what you want to eat because it simulates a full stomach. This would have the same effect as the gastric bypass surgery where they surgically reduce the size of your stomach limiting the amount of food you can consume.

They also have a shake (meal replacement) called XXXXX and there is also a XXXXX product that will be available for those that want a more natural approach to portion control. From the website it states:

XXXX™ is a natural, proprietary, soluble, cleansing fiber-based bulking agent. 2 to 3 capsules provide fiber to cleanse your system, helping you feel full and maintain healthy regularity. XXXX should be taken 20 minutes before eating to provide maximum results. XXXX is not intended to be a meal substitute.

There is a huge buz going on about this product!!!!

This is a ground floor business opportunity also..... here is my website...

    of course you can talk about things, but your post is a total ad, wording and all. It is kind of insulting to us for you to try and pass this off as just "talking" about it.

    well take care!

    Well It was an original post i had posted on my NS site.

    I thought of posting it here too.

    My sister has been telling me about this for a couple of months and I stayed up all last night researching about it.

    I have had the samples in my purse for weeks and beiing on NS I did not know how it would work for me.

    Putting the information about it was just that... putting the onformation about it!

    I have been struggling with my weight all my life and if by sharing this info will help ONE person then its all good!!!

    Am I not suppose to talk about NS either??? I am confused now actually.

    I had hoped to encourage not to cause an angry response.

    Had i known I would of gotten this response I would of never of posted it!

    I was simply SHARING the INFO like it was shared with me!

    I am truely sorry if you did not RECIEVE it the way I INTENDED it to! The intentions of my heart were from a good place not a place of greed or self promotion or anything like that.

    WOW this sucked as a welcome!!!!

    Dont get all worked up about it...Like Ali said...the people here are like family and all of a sudden on your very 1st post to MFP, you post about it all being a great business opportunity etc...it really did come across wrong....even if you intended it to come across a different way...that is the one bad thing about email postings, they dont always come across the way we intend. So, no worries, keep posting your successes and use this site to help! It really is a great site and a great group of people...
    Where in CA are you from by the way?
    Kathey, who is new here, too....

    Fact of the matter, is that you are tryin to sell something. You know that was your original intention as well as I do.

    We *are* a family here. Your feigned defensiveness, not withstanding, you *are* welcome here. We just don't care for charlatanism of any form.

    Yes, I am being harsh, you'll find that I am quite protective of my family, online and off. If you have something productive to the community to contribute, then by all means share it. Otherwise, sell your product elsewhere. This isn't the place to do it.

    ARE YOU KIDDING ME??????? YOU REALLY NEED TO READ THE POSTS OVER!!!!!!!

    This is a very inclusive group. I've been here ~3 weeks and people are warm and welcome.
    I've read your post several times. To me it does read like a scripted sales pitch. It reads as sales post Especially as it was one of your first posts. We don't have any evidence or background knowledge that it is not/was not a pitch.

    Key words that sound like a sales pitch :
    XXXXX™ is a natural, proprietary, soluble, cleansing fiber-based bulking agent. 2 to 3 capsules provide fiber to cleanse your system, helping you feel full and maintain healthy regularity. XXXX should be taken 20 minutes before eating to provide maximum results. XXXX is not intended to be a meal substitute.

    There is a huge buz going on about this product!!!!

    This is a ground floor business opportunity also..... here is my website...

    You as a person working on your own fitness and health are welcome here. Get to know some people. Share your struggles and successes.

    A sales representative (as a representative) is not welcome here.

    I visited your website and you are independent distributor, and YES your post is a definite ad for the product. I make no apologies when I say get off the site. We are here to support each other and ask pertinent questions. We do not need you to tell about any quick fix pill. if you care to join us at working hard to lose the weight and change our lifestyle, then do that. BUT NO MORE POSTING ABOUT THIS PILL:mad:
