    I'll repeat it for you one..more..time.

    If diet pills worked, would anyone be fat?

    Let us know when out find a pill that kills appetite, increases will power, increases energy, takes you to the gym while you sleep, and also overpowers emotional eating.


    Hmmm..let me check my pocket....oh here it is...I found one...Oxy Elite Pro! Next up....

    I'm taking Oxy Elite now and I definitely feel the increase in body temperature, energy, and appetite suppression. I've always researched ingredients via PubMed to see their effects in randomized controlled studies and learn how they work. OxyElite definitely checked out. If you really like it, you don't have to stop taking it entirely. Just cycle off for 2 weeks like it says on the bottle. :)


    Yes...I will actually start my two week break in 3 days! Thanks for your input! And, your hard work definitely shows in your profile pic! Nice job!!!

    Gosh...I really didn't have a chance to read everyone's comment because some where just things I didn't care to read. I was looking into fat burners and one of my MFP's swear by Oxi elite pro so maybe I will just try that.

    And no need to waste energy on these people. It's like placing a sign up next to the red button saying don't touch and they continue to touch any way. I too would have rather read what those who are for fat burners had to say rather than those opposed.

    AND FYI diet pills don't work for everyone because they depend soley on diet pills. People don't take the time to learn how to eat and exercise properly and that is why they triple their weight back. You can't continue to eat the same way expecting the same result...

    Just because fat burners/diet pills didn't work for YOU doesn't mean it doesn't work for the next. Although MFP is set to help lose weight, when you sign up it didn't say if you take diet pills and/or fat burners don't sign up... smh


    Well said! U win an award!!!!!!!!:flowerforyou:
    My 5th comment to this post was that the "haters" were polluting the post from what it is really about...and have filled it with non-valuable info pertaining to the original topic! And, I only keep responding, because they are directly "bumping" my post to the top! Luv it!
    I will say, that I have had a great experience with Oxy Elite Pro, just as many others mentioned! I stand behind it and highly suggests it to those in favor of complimenting their fitness goals. Inbox me if you have further questions, as I am compiling a list of previous suggested alternatives from this post!

    ok thanks, I will definitely inbox you with a few questions. I like to hear suggestions from those that have lost an incredible amount of weight.

    the only thing fat burners make thinner in the long run is your wallet.

    fueling your body properly, continuing to work out, and on occasion a cup of coffee or green tea to get you going should be enough. fat burners burn such a negligable amount of calories you are better off just not using that pat of butter...


    This!

    Drink coffee in the morning and save some money!

    To all: I simply asked for Fat Burners to COMPLIMENT my fitness journey, not supplement my fitness journey!

    Before, you make suggestions to eat healthy, know all of the facts:

    I complete 5-6 workouts per week (varying degrees of HIIT cardio, strength training, circuit training, speed weight set)
    I calorie count and stay within my suggested means
    I eat a well balanced diet
    I honor "cheat" days to shock the metabolism
    I consume min 100oz of H2O per day
    I am guided by my BFF who has won the 2011"Mr. Natural Philadelphia" Bodybuilding Championship
    ...and I have been dropping inches and pds since July of 2011.

    So, I know my stuff and am open to learning more...but, again this forum was intended to learn more about diff fat burners, not to debate with those against!
    Some of you have valid points, but this is not the right thread for them!
    Consider this: If this thread was about being a vegan and sampling out different vegan foods, would it be ok for an onmivore to comment on why I should eat meat?

    Have a nice day people and be blessed!

    I haven't had success since they banned ephedra...now that stuff worked! On Hydroxycut w/ephedra I lost 30lbs in a month (coupled with a drastic change in my diet and working out hardcore).

    Sheesh....30 lbs in a month....amazing results, but possibly too fast for msnewbootie! However, key phrase " with drastic dieting and hardcore workout"....sounds like a guaranteed plan! I have witnessed my BFF (natural bodybuilder) lose 20 in a month...so it's doable! U rock!!!
  • Like you I love Oxy Elite but got off of it to try to do this "on my own". I do enjoy the kick I get from a fat Burner. You should try Burn 60, it is part of the Total Lean line at GNC.

  • msnewbooty ... when you're asking for help and opinions etc it would probably work out best to not be mean to people and put them down when they post something you don't want to hear. Granted you did ask for those people not to post however they did as they have the right to express their opinions. You don't need to be putting them down by saying things like they didn't pass ENG 101.

    Mommyx3... have you read the terms of this website? You cannot sell your own products to people here.

    Pssssh that chick was being a rude *kitten*. I would have smarted off, too.
    I would too. What is the matter with these people. If she wants to take the pills, it's her choice. It's no one's business. Go be nice somewhere else. Keep your advice to yourself. gosh.

    If they wanna waste their money and time then let them! Someone has to fuel the ol' economy
  • 20 cups of coffee does it for me.
  • A few years back I took Hydroxicut for a few months and got great results. I quit taking it when I went to college and managed to keep most of it off. Last year I started taking Phentermine after a doctors appt. I took it from March to November and lost about 20 lbs but I wasn't working out and eating right. I decided at that point that I was done wasting $70-$100 per month.

    I have been working out 5-6 days a week for 1 1/2 hr and it sucks not seeing the results like I did. I lost 7 lbs in one week when I was first on it. Now its taken me about 2 weeks to lose 2 lbs. But I feel much better not having to rely on a pill to have energy.

    I hope this helps a little! Good luck! :)

    Thanks! If you are curious about other supplements and don't have access to a journal database, feel free to PM me and I'll look up studies for you.

    Two other things I STRONGLY recommend are a potent probiotic (well over 1 billion cultures per pill) and butyrate which you have to order online. Both have helped me with digestion and reducing bloat, especially after a cheat day.

    I'm using a drink called Define 8. I was originally looking for CLA and the guy at complete nutrition said this had it and was great for a pre-workout. Also can take before your lunch meal( he said its the new thing out). it doesnt seem to make you jitter, sustained energy for about 5 hrs. and not the big crash.. It comes in many different flavors as well. I LOVE IT!!! (ive ordered several more containers. If you are an ebayer a guy is selling it for around $50. its so new that the flavors I bought were sold out and I had to take alternate flavors which is o.k.) ive used the oxyelite as well and still have some in the cupboard, but reviews from friends and myself said it made me to *****y LOL. short tempered etc. I think fat burners are great as long as they are incorporated with a clean diet and exercise. I've wasted A LOT of money buying stuff and not having the diet n exercise in the mix. Now that i'm eating healthy and working out I love trying new things. Good Luck!!

    I absolutely love Oxyelite pro...but they are reformulating it to take out the DMAA so I would strongly suggest that if you love this product buy as much as you can before it's gone.

    thermo-burn XTR are a good fat loss supplment, I do agree natural sources are the best but I have no issues with people including it in there diets, My friend struggled with his metabolism and was naturally slow, he took thermoburn and it really did improve his performance and fatloss, there is no caffine in these either witch is good too as alot of supplemts include it

    There's guarana in it which is caffeine but a more concentrated form. just thought to let you know.
