    Do you use a food scale to weigh and MFP to track every thing you eat every day?

    Weight loss isn't linear... in the beginning my weight would go down 2lbs.. up 3.. down 4.. up 2.. down 5, etc.
    During my last menstrual cycle I gained 9lbs overnight.. I weigh myself twice a day.

    Do you take measurements? I also have PCOS (as well as hypothyroidism) that is controlled by the birth control implant. Has your endocrine system been further checked?

    Raspberry Ketones = gimmick. Your friend lost weight because she was dieting and exercising with them. I took them for 5 months with no change in lifestyle and had 0 body change. They really don't work

    Raspberry Ketones were the only diet fad I've ever tried. All I did was burp raspberries for 2 hrs every morning.

    Measurements of your body. There was a point I stayed the same weight for about a week and a half but my clothes fit a LOT better. I didn't take actual measurements but I know despite no movement on the scale that my body was improving.

    I used to take them, and would feel much warmer after taking them, so I thought that was my metabolism revving up(shrugs shoulders). I haven't taken them in a few years because I got the impression that I could stimulate my metabolism in better ways through eating and my exercise and now that I know more about caloric deficits I've been seeing a gradual decrease in weight and even though some weeks it's not a major loss (less than a pound), I noticed that when I take a week off or 10 days, that the weight doesn't come back up, and even during my period/week before period I don't see the same kind of bloating/weight gain that I used to see before.

    But to get back to your question: I did see results, but from what I know now I'm pretty sure it was moreso the calorie deficit and the exercising.

    Hey! So I felt like for awhile I was in the same boat as you--I would try and try and only lose a few pounds. I would then go out to dinner with my husband once in a blue moon and gain it all back just from one meal (meanwhile, I used to lose weight so easily a few years back just by cutting some things out). I even tried Raspberry Ketones but it didn't work. I got my thyroid checked and everything. The ONLY thing that helped JUMPSTART my weight loss was the 21 Day Fix (no, I'm not a distributer) sold by Beach Body. I tried Weight Watchers and other portion control programs but the 21 Day Fix and meal prepping are what caused me to lose ~20 pounds. I suggest trying it! Lately I feel like I'm back to being able to lose weight fairly easily as long as I'm eating good and exercising--it doesn't seem IMPOSSIBLE anymore.

    I use to sell several major diet pills out on the market that are from supposed competing companies. I would strongly suggest not expecting major results from any sort of quick fix supplement like this. I will say I have PCOS and I have lost 45.5 pounds doing a combo of Paleo and Keto paleo 'dieting'. I would suggest looking directly into a keto diet and a book called keto clarity. Some specialists suggest ketosis for people with PCOS or other metabolic disorders. However, you need to check with a well educated doctor as it is pretty extreme compared to most eating habits. They will need to do some blood work before giving you the okay.

    You need better friends that don't recommend you waste your money on useless junk.

    I tried them. Got scammed into 'free supply for 3 months then they wouldn't answer my calls to the number they gave to 'cancel after the free period!' I just kept getting deliveries of them and money coming out of my account every month! Ended up going through my bank to stop the payments! Anyway I had loads so thought, why not try them. I felt fuller when I took them but I can't 100% say it wasn't a placebo because I stopped taking them and still lost weight. Maybe it was because my appetite has shrunk by then, maybe it was all in my head. Even if it did suppress my appetite, it's still not a quick fix. You can't eat what you want and still lose weight because you took a magic pill. You'll still need to eat healthy so what's the point?

    P.s- I burped raspberries all morning too! :wink:

    Way too much energy for me. I used them and it almost felt like I was having a heart attack or something. When they wore off, I crashed terribly. Definitely not recommended.
