I tried that green coffee bean extract stuff "Dr." Oz was toting for a while and it caused my anxiety to skyrocket and I had so many panic attacks because of them. My manager at work saw me taking them and made me throw them out, thankfully.
Like my mom has ALWAYS told me, if there was a diet pill that worked, Oprah would've talked all about it. It would have clinical studies proven, and it would be the biggest money maker ever. But there isn't one that actually works, and many haven't gone through proper testing and can be dangerous to your health.0 -

You weigh 70kgs and in your profile pic you certainly don't look like someone with a lot to lose.
How tall are you?

I'm interested in an answer too. After loosing 80 lbs without diet pills, I still have at least 65 lbs to loose before attempting IUI fertility option. I've been trying to loose it for about 9 months and only lost 10 lbs, which I gained back. My OBGYN started me on Contrave and said to stop it at least a month before trying to conceive. I went ahead and started it. I've lost 6 lbs this first week. I'm following up with my Fertility Doctor in a few weeks to discuss his opinion on how long to wait before starting the process.

Most diet pills are basically legal speed. Even if they do help/cause you to lose weight, you don't develop the habits you need to keep the weight off once you quit taking them.0

If you want to know how wonderful "diet pills" are, go watch the movie "Requiem For A Dream".0

Ok, the problem with a lot of diet pills that you can get over the counter us that they are "supplements". This means that the FDA has no jurisdiction over them. Makers don't have to test these pills to even show that they work. They certainly don't do long term tests to look at things like fertility.
They can be dangerous or the can be useless. If they were useful a legit pharma company would work it into real medicine fast. As it stands you have no way of knowing if these things are good, bad or just useless0 -

If you are not losing weight, you are not eating at a calorie deficit.
If you want help figuring out where you are going wrong, please open your diary so we can give specific advice.
Make sure you weigh your food, log everything you eat and drink, ensure you are using accurate entries, log your exercise calories and eat a portion of them back.

I like your mom, and what she said sounds like what my mom would have said if she were alive today. She always told me that losing weight was not about WHAT you eat but about HOW MUCH you eat. She's been gone for years, but I just started listening to that advice in the past few years.0 -

I just don't see it happening. I hope I'm wrong.0

I'll repeat my advice. Start taking a pregnancy vitamin now with Folic Acid to prevent certain birth defects in the future. Spina Bifida is a defect that is caused in the first four weeks of pregnancy, before many women even know they are pregnant. Sufficient Folic Acid prevents this defect.
Other important vitamins include the B vitamins. So if I were you I'd stay away from vegetarian diets and make sure you get a good variety of foods including proteins, vegetables, and dairy.0 -
A good multivitamin with iron and a probiotic for your general health. Diet pills are a gimmick.0

The FDA 100% has jurisdiction over nutritional supplements pursuant to the DSHEA Act of 1994.
Makers do have to prove both efficacy and potency.
Lots of nutritional supplements are neither dangerous nor useless.
I am not commenting on diet pills, but on your completely incorrect statements about nutritional supplements.

I agree with the other comments there is no diet (miracle) pill. Most of them are loaded with stimulants that mess with the body chemistry or are hyped up by saying made with healthy green tea extract. what they aren't saying is the extract part is the caffeine part that is no good to you. Dont get me wrong I love green tea but only drink the decaf kind. Caffeine is a stimulant that wreaks havoc on your hormones and chemistry dont need it. Getting active will give you the same affect as caffeine. At least it does for me. Without the jitters and crash afterwards.
My advise is real food, lots of water and get active. It really does work.
It takes bad habits and time to get out of shape, so it only makes sense it will take good habits and time to get back in.0
