I know a few people who have taken this pill with success. Does anyone here have anything good or bad to stay about this pill, or know of anyone on it.

my wife took it and was a bitch while on it, she lost weight and did not eat much. It works but the side effects suck

Hedge-
Other than being a bitch, what were the side effects?

irritable, moody, if you take it short term its probably okay, she had to go back to the doctor to get bp checked each month and weigh in, I think she took it for 4 or 5 months, dropped weight like crazy

I am no doctor, but would not take this drug for any reason.

My suggestions for anyone considering taking weight loss drugs is to do so under the supervision of your doctor.


Not that you care, but this is how I would address obesity:

Start by running 30 minutes (at least 5 times weekly, but I prefer 6)on elliptical(better for joints than treadmill) ,and increase by 15 minute intervals every 3 weeks until you are at 1 hour daily. Mix in some light weight training. This will become habit, and the high you get from working out can be addictive.

Stop eating fried food, fatty reed meat, processed food, fatty dairy and anything after 7pm.

Keep hydrated, eat lean red meat less than 3 times weekly, drink booze no more than once weekly, eat oily fish at least 2-3 times weekly, increase intake of legumes, veggies and fruit and eliminate fatty milk(including lowfat milk), juice and soft drinks.

This will work, but discipline is the key.

exactly...i agree that you don`t need to run....but do some resistance training,too...muscle burns fat.....nothing makes you feel better than resistance training..it releases endorphins that improve your feeling of well being....

one of the hardest things in life to do is to stop working out(if you started in your youth)...you feel like shit pretty quickly...and that`s a good thing...it`s addictive...

if you`ve really never worked out and waited until your late 20`s and 30`s,i have no idea how hard it is for someone to start and sustain......

probably pretty hard,i`d guess....because theres no immediate gratification...it takes a little time....

interesting :toast: topic...

Agree with all of this, Wease.....


Like someone mentioned, you do not need to exercise to lose weight, but cardio and resistance training burn calories and increase your metabolism, so I would highly recommend it.

You can always lose weight like Mad Jack. No workout, count calories and fast for a couple of months. It is not my cup of tea, but might work for you.

Either way, there many ways to skin this cat. Hope you find one that suits your needs.......

U all forget that a lot of heavy people can barely walk much less run. Nothing wrong with the diet pills.

I just got thru taking the pills and they worked for me.When I started I weighed 203lbs,now I weigh 174 lbs and I did this in 5 months.There are several rules to follow for it to be succesful.
1.No soft drinks of any kind,the diet ones are even worse.
2.No milk
3.Eat meals that consist of 50% lean meat,30% carbs and vegs and 20% sweets
4.walk at a steady pace for 1 hour 5-7 times a week,no running or lifting weights.
5.drink lots and lots of water
6.eat nothing between meals,not even a grape
7.get plenty of sleep
I will continue the diet except for taking the pills.
I had two side effects from the pills,they gave me more energy and they put me in a good mood all of the time.
