    I bought the NOW brand of 7-Keto and tried it for 3 days. It made me SO TIRED and freakishly unmotivated that I had to stop. It was a bit scary. Good luck!

    I must admit, Dr. Oz is getting real annoying with all his magical weight loss secrets! Pul-leeze!

    I do take a B complex, and that's supposed to help your metabilism. But other than that, I think all those pills are just a way for companies to make money! imo

    I sometimes think that Dr. Oz just promotes certain products too, but I honestly believe he is a good hearted person who wants to give advice to millions of women who are searching for a solution and want to learn more about their bodies.

    One reason health professionals become quacks.

    The prophet motive. Just as Old Testament prophets called for conversion and repentance, doctors have to "convert" patients away from smoking, obesity, stress, alcohol and other indulgences [6]. As prognosticators, doctors foretell what is going to happen if patients don't change their way of life. The prophet role provides power over people. Some doctors consciously avoid it. They encourage patients to be self-reliant rather than dependent, but in doing so they may fail to meet important emotional needs. Quacks, on the other hand, revel in, encourage, and exploit this power. Egomania is commonly found among quacks. They enjoy the adulation and discipleship their pretense of superiority evokes.

    I try to add foods into my diet that are proven to support weight loss. I don't take pills. It seems like a new pill is all the rage and then you find out a year later it causes some health problem. Add foods to your diet like sunflower seeds, avocados, foods high in fiber, etc. There was a good article on yahoo yesterday http://shine.yahoo.com/vitality/25-ways-flatten-belly-summer-182700093.html

    Good luck!

    Pick up something with some actual health benefits if you want some supplements. I use the Bragg organic vinegar and some coconut oil on most days. But not because it has miracle belly-fat removal properties...because I like em ;)

    One word. Scam.

    You want to burn fat? Intermittent fasting. When there is no food in your system, your body has no choice but to use what is already there.

    Yumm. Bragg apple cider vinegar is amazing on salads. I even found Eden Organic Apple Cider Vinegar. It's unfiltered, naturally fermented, aged in wood and contains Mother (the best part of the vinegar - the cloudiness that gets filtered out).
    And coconut oil is just yum. I could eat that by the spoonful.

    I eat more fat than anything else and I fight to maintain my weight. It keeps wanting to drop and 108 is low enough for me!!

    I take B12 in liquid form. I do it for energy, but I also am B12 deficient.

    I take OxyElite Pro- got caffiene and thermogenic fat burner's in it...just lets me burn a few more calories during my workouts by raising my HR and it has an appetite suppressant in it as well. As long as you cycle it correctly it works wonders- and I have lost fat quickly and developed much healthier eating habits....to each their own

    I stopped watching Dr. Oz a long time ago. This is about as funny as, Exercise in a Bottle,I saw that once!

    If it were as easy as taking a couple of pills to get the bodies we want, then everyone would have great bodies. Eat right, exercise, and you'll likely get the results you want.

    Simple answer: Are you going to take these pills for the rest of your life? No? Then don't bother.
