You get it from the Vitamin Shoppe you start seeing a difference in a couple of days. I'm down 8 pounds in 10 days I'm no longer bloated and my stomach is 3x smaller than when I started. I hate those kind of commercials it's not an easy fix. Make sure you check with your Dr. first this worked for me I can't speak for anyone else.
Or any actually

As long as your doctor is Dr. Oz. Because he's about the only "doctor" who would recommend this kind of unsubstantiated woo.2 -
Those ads have always annoyed me. Praying on the desperate and uneducated.The "if your belly is getting too flat" one is amusing, too. At least it would be if people didn't seriously fall for this nonsense and send them money. I'm in the wrong racket.

And you probably regained about 2.5 lb of that over the next couple of days when you put food and liquid back into your body.
I am in day 3 of my prep (the clear liquid day). I get to do the drink tonight because my procedure is tomorrow. Good times ahead.3 -

And it's crazy we have to put in these kinds of disclaimers, right? In case someone might actually think it's a good idea!
Yeah, I've seen a lot of threads lately. All tied up in the mindset that you can eat it all, and the laxative will pass it on through before it turns to fat. So dangerous, and people think because it's OTC it can't hurt you.
I used to abuse laxatives back in the day when anorexic and I am still suffering the consequences. I have no firm link but I really think it at least triggered my severe crohn's disease.
I do know it can cause your intestines to no longer function properly because the laxatives used to trigger the contractions and your body forgot how to do it by itself. Most people recover function in time but whether this would trigger a permanent condition like Crohn's would be something maybe a GI doctor would know.0 -
