    I don't get the "it's natural, so I'm more apt to try it" argument. Cocaine is natural too.

    Hear hear. Hemlock is also natural, but they aren't racing to swallow it.

    you are 5'3" and 124lbs....been at the same weight for a year and you call that a plateau?

    Did it ever occur to you that 124lbs is perfectly healthy and that the ten pounds you want to lose aren't realistic? You are most likely unhappy with your body composition and the only way you are going to change that is with exercise, more specifically strength training.

    Yes, because I gained the weight when I started nursing school and have tried to get back down to where I was before at 114. The weight doesn't seem to budge and yes I am unhappy with my composition.

    Why don't you try calorie spiking, changing up what you're eating, or changing your exercise up first?

    I have :( been at this same weight for a year now.

    You are smack in the middle of the "normal" range for BMI. Why would you even consider taking anything for weight loss? (I see you are a nursing student.) Have you considered that you are at your body's natural weight and don't need to and shouldn't lose any weight? If your goal really is fitness, then work on some toning to get that bikini confidence you want, because considering taking a "diet pill," even a "natural" one, to lose weight when you are at a perfectly normal weight looks a little like an unhealthy concern over the number on the scale.

    I am not so concerned over the number on the scale. But when I was 114, I looked great. If I were in a bikini today, I would have the belly flab, arm flab, and chin flab (haha). That is just how 124 looks on me. I've always been active, and exercised. I work out about 4 days a week. I really can't work out any more than that due to school. I also eat very healthy as you can look at my diary and see.

    Beware! Supplement manufacturers are NOT required to demonstrate safety or efficacy before putting a product on the market. If it sounds to good to be true, it probably is.

    Also, the fact that it is "all natural" is completely meaningless. Ricin is completely natural; its also a highly effective chemical weapon.

    Maybe add extra strength training to your workouts to tone up?

    Do you currently workout? If you don't i would suggest picking up Jillian Michael's 30 day shred DVD. it's a 20 minute workout and the dvd only costs $10. I don't know anyone who has done it that hasn't achieved great results.
