    I know that a lot of bodybuilders like to use Ephedrine (Bronkaid/Primatane) along with caffeine pills, for increased fat loss. I would say treat any diet pills like a supplement. Use them to enhance your already good diet and exercise lifestyle. They are not magic, but sometimes they can help

    i've tried oxyelite pro after reading loads of wonderful reviews.. i took it for less than a month, i did give me tons of energy, but after 2 weeks of taking it my hair started falling out like crazy. when i brushed my hair they were everywhere - in my hands, brush, flour - EVERYWHERE! after one month i stopped taking them my hair is till falling out, but it's stopping i think... my hair never been so thin in my life :( it's like half of what i used to have :( i'm sure it is oxyelite pro what caused it, because everything else is fine! :( i haven't changed anything




    That's horrible! I have been losing weight and changing my eating habits didn't know if any worked. I'm happy I asked I will stay clear of them. The fish oil is something I will look into and someone also told me if I increase my vitamin d levels it would also help.

    I had great success on diet pills....NOT LOSING ANY WEIGHT and feeling shaky and spending money on the ridiculous claims of 'fast weight loss'....eat clean work out, lift weights, its simple, thats the formula. If there was a magic pill or shake, we would all be doing it and all be thin.

    This ^^^

    ....eat clean work out, lift weights, its simple.
    As Jess said - It's not EASY but it is SIMPLE

    For the last a few lbs, take 1000mg fish oil will help. I had done this before and it worked great.

    Take 1000mg of fish oil 3x/day or you will prolly die. Every day

    Consult your own doctor. There are medicinally ordained pills that I took once that helped kickstart my weightloss. They are called "Regenon" You take them 30-60 min before your meal and halfway through your already feel full. It works for people who are clinically overweight and should not be taken for esthetic reasons. They also contain many dangerous sideeffects though. I only experienced the mildest form. Extreme thirst.
    I lost 12 lbs within 2 months, then I had to stop because I was no longer overweight (clinically)

    I used Ali for about 6 months. Lost 23 lbs. That was two years ago. Have gradually gained 18 lbs back, but sometimes in that period of time it was as though I was on a diet to gain weight--oh! I hate that. I'm not really sure how good that is for you. I think it is better and safer this way

    You can't buy fat loss in a bottle/pills. If they did everyone would be thin. You can buy fat loss in the kitchen and with sweat.
    Oh, how I wish it were so!
    Done here....:drinker:

    i had an RX for phentermine years ago & i lost a lot of weight. i know its controversial, but for me personally it helped to get me moving b/c its basically speed. but what i lacked in motivation on any given day it made up for b/c i had so much 'energy' i couldnt not move. i was non-stop! it can be hard on your heart though so protein is of the utmost importance. also, if youre a jaw-clencher, get a guard before you take anything b/c it made mine way worse. i would do it again to help me along but not as the solution.
