Ah, laughter is the best medicine. Except if you combine it with Alli.

OP. Trying to get to the bathroom in time.
Just a guess, h.5 -
Doesn't matter who you are, what you do, where you're from. A good sharting themselves story is always both hilarious and horrifying.10

I'm pretty sure that would rip a hole in the space time continuum. Not a black hole. An orange hole.22 -

I thought the story about the dog drinking too much salt water a couple days was the best post but you have all gone beyond my exceptions with these stories!

Have you tried the Sugar-free Gummy Bear Cleanse?
I dare you to read the reviews on Amazon.
Speaking of which, I wonder if you can get just Orange Sugar-Free Gummy Bears.12 -
Anything with sorbitol has this effect1

Just a note. I wasn't looking for only positive responses.
I just wanted honest feedback from people who have actually taken the product, not a bunch of people who have no firsthand experience with it. I like to hear right from the horse's mouth, good or in some cases here, extremely bad and somewhat hilarious, before I make a decision. I have friends who have taken it and their results were what I would call mixed. The product is FDA approved as a weight loss supplement, so I thought it might have some credibility, but online reviews that I read were also mixed, so I wanted to hear from more people.
I just didn't want a thread full of the same thing that we have all heard a thousand times (calorie deficit, calorie deficit, calorie deficit). This I know already. I didn't need to make a thread to hear that. I just wanted firsthand experience. I mean, if you haven't taken the stuff and are commenting, you are pretty much just "talking out of your *kitten*."
So, I want to thank those of you who shared your firsthand experiences. Going by that, I probably won't be taking this product. It just seems to risky.
P.S. I did not know that there were this many people in the world who had *kitten* on themselves. I am shocked, terrified, amused, and disturbed all at once.27 -

He meant that as a pun/tongue in cheek.
I'm glad you came back though OP. We get so many people who start threads like these and just abandon them at the first sign of "that's not what I want to hear".
And yeah, the traumatization of pooing yourself... it's truly horrifying.6 -

I know it was joking, but I just don't want people to get the wrong idea. I want to hear the real side effects that could be experienced taking the pill, good or bad. I don't want it sugar coated. If taking the pill actually makes you poop yourself at random, I would like to know!10 -
I am glad to hear you have decided to stay away from it @CleanUpWhatIMessedUp. To have something with the side effects it gives one, I would have to have something seriously wrong with me.
Cheers, h.1 -
So plan B is a reasonable calorie deficit determined by consistent weighing and measuring for a sufficient period of time to reach your goal, right?

I mean if you need a good cleaning out then maybe. otherwise no0

I remember several years ago, I bought the stuff, knew about the poop risk and was always too afraid to take it. It sat in my medicine cabinet unused until I finally threw it away. I am so glad I never tried it, even more so now lol. This is for me, officially the funniest thread ever.5
