Diet Pills

POSITIVE COMMENTS. I just bought garcinia cambogia. 100% pure 60% hca. Going to start Monday for a month and see if I can't kick start this up again. I am frustrated. 90% of the time calories in vs calories out is the only way to go. However I also believe that sometimes you just need a magic bullet. Good luck. I will try to find this feed again and let you know how it is working.
The truth is not negative. Garcinia Cambogia is tamarind, save yourself some money and buy it cheap at an Indian grocery store if you think it will help (it won't).

People aren't trying to be condescending. What they're telling you is that if you're looking for a pill that will increase the "calories out" part of the equation, you won't find it.13 -

I didn't mean to be condescending. Many people who say they have "a clean diet and regular exercise" aren't aware that those don't necessarily lead to weight loss. My post was intended to educate. But feel free to search the forum archives for other opinions, since diet pills have been discussed countless times.4 -

You said yourself in the OP that you know pill don't work long term, so really, what did you expect people to say?! :noway:5 -

My sister had good luck with diet pills in the 90s.
They gave her a heart condition and, between the hospitalizations and the cardiac diet, she lost weight.7 -

Stuff in the 90s was no joke, soooo many compounds have been banned because of the craziness of diet pills in the 90s, literally people were dying in gyms during workout sessions, hardcore stuff.3 -
^^ Yup. These days, the things that work aren't legal, and the things that are legal don't work.5

I guess no one is going to mention Phentermine...so I will. It helps you control yourself so that you don't eat too many calories! I admit that I've taken it for a few months 2-3 times over the past 10 years and every time I lost 10-15 pounds quickly and easily. This time around I am really trying to think long term and changing my habits so that I don't gradually gain weight again. Honestly though, phentermine really helps you control yourself and eat (and not eat) the way you're supposed to.1

Um...if you keep regaining the weight...then it doesn't work, does it?15 -
I also know that there are drugs that do work. A lot of them are prescription, such as vyvance (now used for treating both ADHD and BED). Theres other drugs (like aderall and ritalin) that are prescription, usually for ADHD that cause weight loss.
There are herbs that surpress appetite (marshmellow root or licorice root) and herbs that stimulate digestion (senna), a few of these beneficial herbs coupled with a dose of caffeine could be helpful to support weight loss I believe. So i was simply asking the public if they had experience with any particular product.
I SEE THAT THAT IS NOT THE CASE HOT DAMN. ill make my own tea or herbal cigarettes or somethin.
And thanks to everyone who attempted to respond to my question instead of regurgitating some *kitten* about calories (also a flawed system, as metabolisms adjust to reduced calories and your diet and metabolism, stress level, biology impact the effects of a calorically deficient diet. But whatever.
I love caffeine in the morning shortlyy after my prescription concerta (slow release ritalin) which has been helpful for appetite control and adhd symptom reduction. I have also had a lot of success in the past witb intermittent fasting, good tip.0 -

Senna does not enhance digestion. It makes you poop. There's a difference. It is NOT for weight loss, ever.
I guess you've already done your research on what works and were here looking for validation. I'm sorry you didn't find it.6 -
HIIT works well for me. Walk 1 minute, jog, then sprint, then repeat.2

Just start.6 -
I noticed you first created an account in 2012. Had you not been searching for a quick fix you could have most definitely kept a very modest deficit and been at goal probably 2 years ago. Food for thought11
