Fat lose products

I support the above statement, if any of this worked everyone would know about it and do it.........I sure as hell would and I would be telling everyone......so far all I am telling people that works is diet and exercise.

You couldn't pay me to buy protein powder from Coles/Woolies or the chemist. The brands I've seen there are fairly crap imo.

In regards to protein, a shake won't burn fat. It will contribute to your protein intake, which may make you feel fuller and therefore stick to your deficit more easily. Protein is also important for your body functions, not just maintaining muscle. You may be able to get sufficient protein through food though, you don't necessarily need shakes or supplements

Most fat burners are caffeine and diuretics (they make you pee) or laxatives (make you poop).

Just eat real food, not too much, mostly plants. This isn't rocket science. Stop making it hard.

Agreed. I've looked at the ingredient of some of the cheaper meal replacements and protein shakes, and I'd suggest going to GNC or some place that specializes in nutrition.

Also, in addition to satiety, protein has a higher thermogenic effect than carbs or fats, meaning that it takes more calories for our bodies to process protein than it does any of the other macronutrients. This is probably what these advertisers are talking about when they use marketing terms like "fat blaster" or "fat burner."

There is no magic pill and a lot of those "diet pills" have ingredients in them that are down right dangerous. I used to work at large chain vitamin store and NOTHING I repeat NOTHING in there was regulated by the FDA. There was one ingredient in particular called bitter orange extract that has some scary emerging research. Some studies claim it can strain your heart and cause heart attacks in perfectly healthy people. Granted there is no real scientific research done yet so take that as you will, but personally I would not want to risk a heart attack just to lose a few pounds.

Unfortunately, these fat burner shakes and diet pills are a gimmick. I few years back when I was trying to lose weight fast in my first years of college I resorted to trying hydroxycut, garcinia cambogia (spelling is probably wrong lol), and other brands that claimed quick and effective weight lose. However, they're essentially diuretics and laxative so the weight you are "losing" is usually just water weight. I struggled with unhealthy food and attempted weight loss habits for awhile so I spent a lot of time and effort trying to get those products to work for me. In the end, a healthy diet and occasional exercise always wins!

Thank you guys so much. I didn't know that i can get all that support and advices here on this app.
I'm just getting tiree of my diet, i'm losing weight when i check on the scale but i'm not seeing the difference that's why sometimes i give up but then i say i started and i shouldn't stop before i get to my goal.

I lost 28 pounds and I can't see a difference because I see myself everyday but other people see a difference!

Yes I'm the same way! I've lost enough weight to where I think I should look completely transformed, but since I see myself and analyze my body daily I'm not seeing the difference. However, my friends, family, and clothes are telling me otherwise!

Exactly I'm like 28 pounds gone and I tell my fiancé I'm discouraged because I don't see a difference but he tells me all the time how much I look like I lost! But it's just because I see myself everyday
