i have tried it.. it makes you really shaky and makes your heart race.. the only way it works is with both diet and exercise, but for me it has never made a big difference in weight..

I tried that, but I just stopped taking it after a while, I did try the new diet pill out now, Akavar, and I must say I did see some weight loss and then I forget to take it for a few days and the pounds just seemed to pour back on...so depressing

I had major problems with many different diet pills out there. A recent trip to my dr made me never want to take another diet pill again. There is no magic weight loss pill. Not only do most of the diet pills cause heart problems but, they can actually slow your metabolism down. Then when you try to diet you have trouble because your natural metabolism is out of whack.
Honestly, the best thing is to make healthy eating your way of life and fit in 30 minutes of exercise a day.
I follow weight watchers. I learn how to eat, what to eat, and what habits made me gain the weight. WW is not a diet but, a way of life. Best of luck to you.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
