diet pills?

I'm looking for any brides that tried a weight loss medication that has worked for them. something that would suppress your appetite and give you a little more energy if its natural that's better but anything that you use that works let me know!

    I've also seen some of the purehealth100 supplements at walmart so you don't have to order them, and at any health food store they will sell them.

    @Catera did you put all the weight back on quickly though?

    I don't diet and I never really have but I made a commitment to being active when I was in college. I make time to work out at least 5 days a week with a goal of 30 minutes a day. I eat what I want in moderation and watch my portions as much as possible. I train for long distance runs so usually from March-May, I'm running 30+miles a week. That is when I'm eating like a boy hitting puberty crossed with a woman pregnant with triplets. I've managed to stay the same weight for almost 6 years by being in tune with what my body wants/needs. Do not use diet pills, you'll lose weight quickly just to gain it back.

    I have taken a certain brand of diet pills before, but I was also eating well and working out. I stopped, ate like shit and ballooned up to a horrible size. Fast forward 6 years ... I have began taking those same diet pills again. I started them last week. I cut out all fast food, fried food, soda, drinking more water again and working out. I have already gone from 186 to 182.5 in a week. It's not just the pills, it's a combo of also working on getting healthy again. If you do decide to use diet pills, do a lot of research. Read all the reviews. I am only using what I've used before because I know it works for me. Every one responds differently to whatever is in pills. Proceed with caution.

    I use advocare!! I love it. It is created by surgeons who wanted to help their patients get the daily recommended nutrients and vitamins as well as help with weightloss, natural energy, and overall better health.

    I use thermoplus 2 times a day (before breakfast and dinner). I also do a 10 day herbal cleanse from advocare 2-3 times a year. It is a great product Smiley smile

    check out the store, not only do I use it, but I am a distributor. Feel free to message me with any questions!

    Sometimes you just need help when eating correctly and exercising. We all have different bodies and sometimes the extra helps with what results we want. Good luck

    I used diet pills and they worked - at first. The weight came back because I was just losing water weight. I don't even want to know what I did to my body during that time.

    Please don't use diet pills. The only people they "work" for are the manufacturers making $$ off you. Exercise and eat healthy!

    Diet & nutrition are very important! Use a good online tool like My Fitness Pal to keep within your daily calorie intake. Most importantly, exercise... lift weights, challenge yourself everytime to lift heavier. That mixed with some cardio.. I promise, you will see results. Lifting is the key! Good luck! No pills, please!

    Yeah yeah, we all know diet pills aren't good for you. But like you, I want to lose weight fast and I need help. I have been taking pure garcinia cambogia for about a month and half and lost 2 freaking lbs. So I definitely don't recommend that. My friend lost a ton of weight taking phen. I haven't had any great success stories from any diet pills, so that's why I opened this thread!

    I have never heard of a diet pill actually working. However, I have had two sets of friends that recently lost a ton of weight.

    One is christian, and she did the Daniel Fast (http://danielfast.wordpress.com/). The only reason I like this fast is because it isn't really a fast- it's basically only eating frutis, veggies and nuts. My friend has lost 20 pounds in a month. I was concerned about her gaining it all back since she lost it so quickly, but she has decided to keep eating that way, even after the fast ended.

    Two of my guy friends have been doing these video sets called T25 by beach body. One did it with no diet and after a couple months he has lost 20 lbs, and the other has been doing it with a restrictive diet and has lost 50 lbs.

    I actually have an appointment for next week to go to my Dr. for this. I have been on them before they do help! It gives you the appetite suppression and energy you need to help lose weight and if your not doing your part your dr. Will take you off of them.You still have to be motivated to do your part working out and eating healthy.

    I looked into diet pills at one time. Most of them has side effects like "anal leakage" or "explosive diarrhea" so I decided against them.

    Nothing beats daily exercise with good natural diet. You can try pushing a little more in exercise but pills are something I will never go for personally.

    Take a look at your diet and try to figure out what's causing you to not have energy. For some people, it's carbs, and upping your protein will help a ton. Or try adding a multivitamin. Seriously--a few months ago, I started regularly taking a multi and found myself with a ton of more energy. My body must have needed *something* but who knows what.

    Diet pills just aren't worth it. I am by no means a purist about what I put in my body, but I would not take the risk of diet pills. I have heard great things about Advocare, but that's more of an energy or workout supplement I think. If that's what you're looking for, do your research on the ingredients and go for it!

    I have tried almost everything! I took adipex and lost over 50 lbs in 3 months. I looked amazing but when I couldn't afford to go to the doctor and get more I gained all the weight back and then some! So I am battling my weight again but I'm doing it with herbalife shakes and the total control pills and I absolutely love it and feel better than ever. I've only been doing it for a couple weeks and have lost almost 6 pounds.

    I do not recommend diet pills. Drink water, watch what you eat, and exercise. Lose weight the healthy way. Diet pills may help you lose the weight, but more than likely you'll just gain it back. Plus, people tend to get lazy when they start taking diet pills (I see this all the time at work) and then they expect the pills to do all of the work for them. You have to stay healthy and active for anything to work at all. Workout supplements or supplements that may assist you in losing the weight would be much better to take than an actual diet pill. Multivitamins are good to take as well. Plus, like Kat mentioned, they usually have terrible side effects.

    Jim - Phentermine is a controlled prescription substance. It can only be prescribed by a physician and they normally have to monitor you closely while you're on it since it can mess with your organs. It also does not work right away for many people. I have patients who have been on it for close to a year and they don't look any smaller.

    @koch I did gain my weight back bc I stopped working out and eating healthy after I won the biggest loser contest at my job. Once I had that hamburger I fell back to my old habits. I plan on starting it up again this weekend
