Honestly, if you rely on the diet pills as a crutch you will more then likely just gain all the weight back when you stop taking them. I speak from experience. All you need to do is just keep half of what you're doing - the gym and lower cals - and you will have continued, permanent, weight loss.0

Why do I drag myself into this........When is your birthday? What do you weigh? What do you want to weigh? Are you a couch potato or do you get out of the house to do anything? How old are you? Kids no kids? BF or husband?
Let me know...I'm not a doctor but I played one on TV.0 -

*nods* I can definitely understand that, but (as others have noted and you yourself said) pills are not the right way. Look around here on MFP and ask lots of questions. MFPers know a LOT about different diets and exercise programs/sites. You can find something that will work and get you to your goal on time and do it safely.
I'm trying to get to my goal weight of 183 by my birthday, too. If you want, send me a friend request. We'll keep each other going.

unfortunately I think you will find that they saying "you didn't put the weight on overnight and it's not going to come off overnight" to be extremely true. We all want to lose weight, and human nature is we want it to happen fast. The key is gonna be setting some goals to attain and working hard. This is just not an easy process and you aren't going to be able to take pills to reach your goal...sorry!0 -
I think it was the gym and less calories that made you lose 45lbs in 2 months lovey not the pills. Are you losing weight at the moment?
Why don't you try doing what you did before without the pills and see how that goes? If it works, the sense of achievement you will get from it will spur you on. If it doesn't, then look around for something else.
You may not be able to lose the whole 70lbs before your birthday but you will have lost a lot and you will feel like a different person.
Good luck :flowerforyou:0 -
Just wanted to point out that obviously you know your way is not right as that is the title of this post. Think about that. If a friend told you they were doing something that they already knew wasn't right, what would you say to them? Keep doing it or change your ways?
I'm not condemning you for using these pills as I have used them in the past as well. What I have found is that the exercise and dieting are what is actually effecting change. The pills become a crutch. When I used them I found myself acting hyper all the time, I couldn't sleep or focus on one task and sometimes I would feel like I was having heart palpitations. But I would just keep taking them because I thought they were the thing that was helping. But one day when I was feeling all these things I decided, just like your post "I know my way is not right" and I stopped using them. I am still tempted though, when I walk by them in the stores.
Those type of pills can be very hard on the body and although the manufacturer's claim they are safe, I would take a much deeper look into them before continuing on. I know when you have a lot of weight to lose you really want it to come off fast. If you were to ask any doctor or pharmacist about the safety of those pills, I am sure they would not recommend. Keep in mind that at the end of your weight loss you want to be healthy and potentially doing damage to your organs is not OK.
Perhaps if you are stagnating in your weight loss you should try to change something. More or different exercise or change your diet plan. If you are doing low calorie, that might not be the best diet for you. Not everyone responds well to a low calorie diet. A low carb diet might be the change your body needs to get losing again.
That's my two cents, for what it's worth. Good luck.0 -
thanks for the replies
i'll post my updates next week.
i'll try to go and spend more time in the gym next week,0 -
I have known of others who have used diet pills with great success but with a few unwanted products: they either had to continue taking the drug or they put all the weight back on (and more) shortly after going off the drugs or worse - kept taking the drug and put the weight back on!! So the journey each of us take to live in the body we choose is unique. We have to figure out what works for us chemically (what we eat) and psychologically (why we eat). Good luck to all my new friends!!!0

I can understand wanting to lose your weight, and see quick results.
You know the pill route is wrong, and it's been confirmed by many above.
It's your head that needs to be 'right'.
Think positively, walk 20-30 minutes each day to start with, and eat less.
Do that for a week and see what happens on the scales.
You CAN do it!
Good luck.

This from a 32 year old male?
I expect it from a 16 year old girl FFS!
But a man your age should know better and be smarter than this.
Edit:
Plus the "I have 11 more patients" comment shows that he is a CNA or something similar. A comment thrown out there to make us realize he should know better due to medical training....
I smell a BB.Com invasion.
Please don't feed the trolls.0 -
Most of this stuff doesn't work. There is very little, that works. Probably prescribed by a doctor for very obese people. But these Over-the-counter-pills are trash. It is a money making machine, giving people false hope.0

I totally sympathize with you Kornido. I completely understand the desperation! I exercised, I ate exactly how much MFP told me to and I gained. I didn't even cheat and I gained. Then I started eating less than what MFP told me to and I started losing ever so slowly. There are some days that with exercise calories added back in that MFP tells me to eat over 3,000 calories but I eat 1100-1500 instead because I've already proven to myself that I CAN'T eat all the calories that MFP gives me or I'll gain. If I complained about it here, the folks would say. "OMG you're not eating enough, you have to eat to lose weight!" But everyone is different and some of us honestly and truly are blessed with a super efficient metabolism.
All of the comments about people who reach a desperation point and want to reach for pills are just wanting to sit on the couch and eat what they want are hurtful. Obviously you don't want that, you just want an aid that will make you feel like you're on even ground with everyone else. something that will help you actually see some results from all of your hard work.
Personally, I do take some supplements, but I'm extremely careful about what I take and err on the side of caution. I take green tea, klb6, Gymnema Sylvestre, chromium, and Garcinia cambogia . None of these are miracle workers but they do help a bit.
If you're in need of something strong, then I'd strongly recommend visiting your doctor. Please don't go to some quack weight loss doctor. See a regular doctor whose only business isn't prescribing weight loss pills en masse. Understand the risks associated with the pills. Read the warnings. Make your own decision. I took doctor prescribed pills back 15 years ago and they worked amazingly well but after a few months, I felt like my aerobic capacity was diminishing during vigorous exercise instead of increasing so I stopped taking them. That was my experience, but everyone is different.0
