    My stepdad was prescribed this a few years ago (4+) by his primary care physician. I really dislike his doctor, he's prescribed him several different medications that are to help with weight loss (my step dad is diabetic). Yet not once has he suggested to my stepdad to exercise more and eat healthier. :angry:

    I will admit that when I found out he had been prescribed the "gila monster saliva" - I did ask him if he's supposed to stop taking it if he develops scales. HAHAHAHAHA

    if you wrestle the gila monster and make out with it to get its saliva, you burn a bunch of calories. so that's a nice bonus.

    It's a win win

    If the gila monster is pregnant does that mean you can only eat 500 calories a day?


    You are kissing the WRONG end! :love:

    Excellent point and it should be noted that they are venomous -- a nice dose of venom would reduce food cravings in pretty much anybody.

    Prediction of the next crop of threads that will pop up in the next 12 months about this stuff:

    I want it!!!, I want it!!!, where can I get it????

    Has anyone taken it!??!?, should I take it too?!?

    OMG, this is totally the only thing that will make anyone anywhere lose any weight ever!!

    How many carbs in a spoonful?

    Should I only eat the wholemeal spit or is the white spit ok too?

    My friends, well my friend's friend, well this person who works in my office knows someone who has a third cousin who lost, like 7lbs, in a week! on this stuff.

    Is it true you only lose water weigh taking it?!?

    Hellllpppp......my iiilla izzard iz bifing moi tongueeeee ..... HELPPPPP!!!

    Then the 'you should only drink less than 1200mg of spit a day' crowd will weigh in and the whole discussion will go to hell in a handbasket

    I'm on the synthetic version to control my diabetes and I would'nt knock it however I am on in for genuine MEDICAL REASONS not a quick fix.

    I doubt it would ever be sanctioned as a weight loss aid.

    Seriously NOT recommended for healthy people as a weight loss medicine! and licking lizards is not recommended either LOL!!

    I used to take it, too, and I did very well on it. Too bad I lost my health insurance, right? I've actually wondered how long it would take for it to be touted as a weight-loss aid rather than a diabetes medication.

    Also, to the poster who mentioned disliking his/her father's doctor for never suggesting diet and exercise for weight loss to help with diabetes...I've been lucky that both my primary care physicians have recommended it, but their patient education skills were lacking. I've always understood that it would help, but I've been too lazy to do it. I really feel bad for those who don't understand the benefits due to lack of education from those in a position to help.
