"It's amazing - people were not asked to change their daily lives. Just take 2 pills per day - that's it!" Lipozene - only meant for those with a serious amount of weight to lose.

I wish that "miracle" pills could be outlawed.

    I nearly had a heart attack because of weight loss tablets. Four years ago, at the age of FIFTEEN. Never again!!

    I don't think it's gullible, I think it is desperate and just tired of trying. Maybe hoping it won't harm them and will help like it says it does.

    They are still sheep, follow the media craze that milk them for every cent they have.

    Unfortunately it is a variety of things - gullible, desperate, lazy, etc. I have found myself trying things here and there - it always works until you stop the program. I finally figured out that nothing will sustain improvement except real life changes - long term changes. So, I know from experience that someone is calling those numbers when the commercials air - I just wish I could intervene and help them see a better way.

    what gets me is when you see ads for all that crap in women's (and men's) health magazines! they fill their journal with countless articles of why you *shouldn't* use any pill, and then campaign for them in the back. that drives me crazy...

    Amazing point! I've never understood this either.

    I have tried weight loss pills once and I didn't like the way they made me feel. I know ppl who are currently taking them and I think it's dangerous. If not just dangerous because of the health affects but also for the fact you can't keep taking them forever. Eventually you're going to have to learn how to be healthy and live right. There are no simple fixes. And there are no quick fixes, Maybe if we weren't such needers of instant gratification these things wouldn't be on the market...
