Has anybody had any results whatsoever from Garcinia Cambogia or Green tea pills? I have both and tried them on and off for a couple weeks and was losing weight but I don't know if it's just from dieting

    Pills like that have minimal to no effect. They're just a money making scheme.

    There are no magic pills that will make you lose weight quickly.

    Start tracking your calories, drink plenty of water and exercise = weight loss.

    If a pill promises the same effects as exercise and calorie deficit- without needing exercise or a calorie deficit (fat burning) then dont bother.

    And when they say "with proper diet and exercise" - well, its the proper diet and exercise for the win.

    I tried this garcinia cambogia drink about 6 months ago. It did make me feel less hungry but somehow I feel that it's not the right way to lose weight. The minute I stopped taking it or if I forgot to take it, I'm back to craving for more food. But I did shed a few (minimal) pounds - since I didn't eat much.

    I don't recommend it tho. Stopped taking it after 3 weeks. I've been eating healthy, counting calories and working out since :)
