Diet supplements--

Just make sure your problem is actually appetite before trying diet pills.  I tried a few different kinds of diet pills years ago, but they did nothing for me; the problem wasn't that I was hungry too much, but that I ate when I wasn't hungry.  If you eat due to cravings, or emotions like boredom or depression, diet pills will be a waste of money.

That said, as far as I can recall, the diet pill that suppressed my appetite most was probably just plain old Dexatrim.  They've probbaly changed the formula since then, though, since when I tried it, there was ephedra in it -_-; .

I have tried different supplements over the past few years. Nothing was for major weight loss (5 to 10lbs), mostly for energy/appetite suppressant. In my experience I do believe products with ephedra were effective. Yeah, I know they are "bad" for you so I don't want any lectures. I am just being honest. Recently I have tried Ripped Fuel (ephedra free) and it kinda gives the the feeling of downing a double espresso but I am not sure if it actually helps with curbing appetite. One thing I will say, NO SUPPLEMENT will burn fat or make you lose weight strictly by taking it. The reason I feel an ephedra-based product works is because it speeds up your heart (to unhealthy levels for some people) and it totally curbed my appetite and cravings. Therefore, I lost weight. Could also be the mindset. Studies show that there is such a thing as the placebo effect.

I've tried a few supplements, Xenadrine, Hydroxycut, Celuburn, and others, I've went so far as paid $100 or more for weight loss pills. I've used some of the same products with and without ephedrine, and although very unhealthy, I have to agree norskygrl21, those ephedrine products worked like a charm for me, even with little exercise. I've even used runners creatine, but that stuff eats away at your pancreas. Crazy to spend that kinda money on supplements, but I HAVE to stay within very unreasonable weight standards for the army. So I do what I have to do!

I no longer use any of those products, I saw a man fall out and die right in front of me, one minute he was running the next he was on the ground. We later found out that he was taking these supplements, his age and health conditions, may have also been contributing factors, but it was enough to scare me off of em. I continued to exercise, but now I had to work a little harder and keep it on a regular basis, but I wasn't eating right, so I slowly gained the weight back.    Which by the way seems to be a never ending battle.

Regardless of what supplement you decide to take, try not to become dependent on it and still exercise and eat right, so if you stop taking them your still ahead two out of three.

 

The Trim Spa with Hoodia worked well for me to make me feel full all day.  I actually had to make myself eat.  The only think I did not like is the size of them.
