Default diet pills

do you take them? what do you take? what are the results?

like a couple others here, I've been on a get fit or die diet plan. I really cracked down June 1 and have done a great job of working out 4-5 times a week, drinking plenty of water and keeping my caloric intake in check. no fast food, no sodas, very little sugar. I used to take Adipex (illegally obtained, of course) and it was like a wonder pill. then I started to build up a tolerance, the **** is expensive and I couldn't find it anywhere so I had to stop. then I heard about Lipo 6 and just bought a bottle last night. so far this morning it is working like Adipex did and it says you will not build up a tolerance. I'm still taking my vitamins, etc. but was just curious what anyone else is doing...

my goal is to be halfway at my mark by my birthday (August 26) and the rest by Thanksgiving. so far I've done a good job, losing slow and steady.

Jason, you need to let me know how this goes. I've never tried pills (except dexie-whatevers in high school) because I'm always afraid I'll feel wired out. Do you feel like that. If not, PM me about where I can get it. Seriously. xoxo

This thread scares me, be careful with those things.

This is going to be a little harsh - but it is coming from someone who has lost about 80 pounds. Pills and diets do not work - period - trust me, I have tried them all. The reason is once you get off of them, you balloon back up. So, I concluded that if change the way you eat and add some daily exercise and the laws of physics mandate the weight will come off. A great diet is Weight Watchers because it is not really a diet, but a modification of what you eat and when you eat it and it excludes no food groups I can think of.

So, don't take that shiitte and start eating better and exercising.

I am eating much better and exercising 4-5 times a week. I just wanted something to help curb my appetite while I got used to eating less. thanks for the advice though...I see what you're saying and I guess like most people I wanted a jumpstart.

you didn't...I know all that and I should listen to myself and not be sucked into it, but I have my weak moments. nice Ledgies bitchslap you back into reality.

by the way, even though this is the first day I've taken Lipo 6, I think I'll return it to GNC...I'm not liking the way it's making me feel. so, no pills and just stick to my healthy eating and exercise.
