Personally I don't like Diet Pills. I took them a few times and everytime they made me feel sick. I suggest better eating habits and a lot of exercise! You cannot take Diet Pills forever but if you develop healthy eating habits and a regular exercise schedule than you will be better off in the long run.

I've been on hydroxycut and I like it. I've lost about 10 lbs with it plus diet & exercise. No real side effects, more energy

I have a couple of friends who have thrown away hundreds of pounds on Diet pills.

They really do not work, I would also choose a sensible diet, eat in moderation and move around more than usual.

Seems to keep me fit healthy and in trim!

I would never take diet pills (don't need to, as I am not even slightly fat). Just eat a healthy balanced diet. Lots of fresh fruit and raw or lightly cooked vegetables, nuts etc, and lean meat. get a bit of exercise everyday, and diet pills will be unnecessary.

Pills aren't a good idea, yea they'll help you lose weight but it will all go straight back on once u come off them. Exercise more have smaller food portions

All the weight loss stuff on TV, gum, pills anything, if you look close at the bottom it says

*With proper exercise and diet


..... Well there's a clue.

Edit- I just realize that sounded rude and I apologize, I didn't intend for it to be, I just think those ads are stupid because it just points out they don't really work because you can lose just as much as they say with diet and exercise alone. I suggest trying that! Good luck. I'm going to start trying too soon, I just have low ambition lol


I don't want to be one in a million. I want to be one in 6.6 billion.

Depends what type of pills. Do you take a multivitamin? I take natural vitamin and mineral supplements as we are not able to get the right amount of nutrition from the food we eat.
I also take smoothies/shakes as meal replacement in a weight managament program. I can send details if you like.

Pills just give you a new problem, they're not worth it. My cousin tried Alli- it did embarrassing things to her intestinal track Exercise has worked for me. Take it slow, when I did the fast route it came back fast. Over the last five years I've lost 60 lbs., I eat what a want in moderation, and the weight stays off. Yoyo diets and pills will probably give you heart trouble. It's rough, but you can do it Oh, I chew a lot of sugarfree gum.

..."I don't really like pills"...

I think you have yourself an answer.

Eating healthy and getting regular exercise is the best way to lose weight (if you aren't already 250kgs and stuck in bed, of course). Pills may help you lose weight in the short term but most of the time, when you stop taking the pills, you'll put weight back on. Don't think of eating healthy and exercising as a diet, because it's not a diet, it's a healthy lifestyle that everyone who wants to live a long and healthy life should adopt.
