Okay, so like I eat lightly, and throw up and all that stuff.. but my question is, what do diet pills do for you? do they make you feel full? or do they just burn up fat you eat? Becuase I take them, and i want to know if it will help me loose wieght!

They won't help you lose weight. All they will do is make you broke and uncontrolably jittery. Not a good idea if you like to sleep.

Depends which ones... I think it's a phsychologicla thing though. When you're on a diet pill, you always think about it and that way you don't want to eat as much because you want to "get off the pill". That's what happened to me last year and I lost some weight but then the pill just became a habbit and it no longer helped at all so I stopped. Even gained weight while on it and while off it again (binging got back).

It depends which diet pill you get but the ones i had did not have much of an effect. Ive heard not many of them do. Sometimes diet pill are the wrongroute to take they make you feel like you can eat more when they will have little effect afterwards.

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
