    I drink about 2 pots a day lol

    This may be part of the problem. Doesn't caffeine spike cortisol?
    I still drink coffee every morning, but a couple of pots a day may be too much.

    You should evaluate what your calorie goal is and if it is too low, start eating more. If you can eat more and still be in deficit, that will save you money and the pain of fat burners. If that's going to be too low, try eating filling foods like meat, rice, vegetables, etc and drink plenty of water.

    I can help more if you provide your stats. Like your weight, goal weight, calorie limit, etc.

    I'm 5'9 161 lbs medium frame and I'd like to be 140-142 Let me know if u need any other info! I appreciate it!

    Ok, since you're only looking to lose 20 lbs, maybe try changing your weight loss rate to a half pound per week. This will give you more calories overall (unless you're already at that rate) How many calories are you eating now?

    Mfp has me at 1645 but I have a hard time keeping it at that. But anymore and I feel like I won't lose. I try to stay at 1200 but then wind up binging at some point.

    Read this: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1235566

    For real, eating 1645 will allow you to lose weight. I eat 1690 or so every day and I lose weight. Look at some of the most successful people on MFP, they eat at or above 1600 every day and they look dayum good!

    This might put everything in a little more perspective: http://scoobysworkshop.com/calorie-calculator/

    Use this calculator to see your TDEE (how much you burn per day with activity) and this will also tell you how much you should eat per day based on that. I've used this calculator for years and it hasn't failed me
    Thank u for all this!! Just read it all and definitely helped.

    You aren't eating the right foods if your insulin levels aren't in check while dieting. Try eating your 1645 calories a day with low carb foods. Eating more often as well so you don't end up binging.

    Why did the oxy elites work so well? I've tried a bunch of other pills and nothing ever worked...but those worked so great. I know it's an easy fix but I don't know what else to do to squash my appetite at this point. I'm a type one diabetic so I know that has something to do with it.

    As a diabetic, you absolutely should NOT be considering taking any of these products.

    Focus on eating to your goals. Drink a lot of water, get enough fiber, have an occasional cup of coffee and exercise. These are the only safe things that are going to work.

    Maybe it's just because I hate vinegar, but this made me gag. I would suggest just focusing on calorie deficit and exercise if possible. You might also consider lowering your calories little by little to make it more sustainable for you

    It might sound strange but tend to gain weight when taking fat burners. I feel hungry 24/7 and I am talking about some abnormal and uncontrollable hunger. So, I avoid taking diet pills. Is it just me or there some people feeling the same way?

    HaHa that doesn't surprise me! I reckon a lot of companies would slip their own reviews in.
