YES IT WORKS. but you really need to find the answer to the question of why you gained the weight in the first place. if you dont do that, then fasting is all work no gain because you will put the weight right back on + about 10%.

I've heard that Mederma works well.  It's a little bit expensive, but it's probably worth it, and it's available over-the-counter.  I've seen it at Wal-Mart and other drugstores.

I've tried many...and I wish I could have my money back lol.  Only thing that worked a little was Leptropril.  I lost about 8lbs, but gained it back.  Just stick w/ a healthy diet & regular exercise.  There's nothing better.

NO, IT DIDN'T WORK IT WAS JUST LIKE TAKING A VITAMIN.  I HAD BETTER LUCK ADDING GRAPEFRUIT, VINEGAR TO MY DIET.

I have tried several over the past few years and none have really worked.  Rigt now im on topamax (which is normally used for migranes) but is used in bipoloar also, along with a small dose of paxil.  The side effects were really bad the first two weeks(bad headaches, ringing in the ears, tingling in the tips of fingers and toes, no soda at all - any carbonated beverages taste like blood, but have since gone away, (except for the carbonation thing) and I actually do feel pretty good now.  And topamax, is also used as a weight loss pill too!! BONUS!!  (they say topamax is similar to depakote without the weight gain)

I use Dexatrim Results, it's definitely helped me loose 62lbs, it's a big help with controlling my appetite.

I tried it, didn't find that it worked one bit.  I ended up returning it for a refund.  Even though it tasted great, it made me sick to my stomach, and I didn't lose any weight at all.  In my opinion it's a scam.

You really ought to try the product offered at the following website.  I cannot make a claim as to its effectiveness for any medical condition, but I did meet a lady who was bedridden with fibromyalgia for 2 years, and was able to get out of bed after two days using a double dose of the vitamin and mineral supplement.  you can return the empty bottles for a full refund, within 1 month, if you don't like the product.

Nutrisystem food sucks!!! And I was always starving to death!\nThe serving size is soooooo tiny! And I know that it is the best way to lose weight. But get real!! One of the cereal packets had 1/2 cup of cereal in it. And nearly every thing has beans in it. One of the dinners I ate the beans were stil crunchy! The deserts I got were mostly soy chips or nasty pretzels.\nJust not my idea of a diet that I could stick to.

I tried it. It was easy to use. I guess I had some mild benefits. Flatter tummy, good digestion, etc., but it was nothing dramatic. \n\nI didn't see any weird creatures or "plaque." What I DID see was strands and particles of partially digested food, which could look like worms and eggs, if you didn't know what to look for. I also saw "ribbons" which looked like what some on the website were describing as plaque, but to me they looked like ribbons of the psyllium product that you take.\n\nI'm in pretty good health, so maybe my experience wasn't typical of someone in poor health. But I have to say, it wasn't worth the money, but I was willing to give it a try.

Worked Great!\n\nPersonally I think 100% Hoodia in tablets is best! \n\nCheck with your doctor before starting any weight loss program.\n\nI tried many diet pills/shakes/bars with no or little results. \n\nThan I tried Hoodia and......\nHoodia has worked for me...and with no side effects. \n\nFor all you doubters, here is the prior feedback for another Answers user who followed my advice:\n\nAsker's Rating: *****\nvery good comment i lost 2 lbs in a week\ni think i can almost get in my leather dress, i can hit the town in no time \n\n\n**** VERY IMPORTANT NOT TO GET RIPPED OFF --- \n\n#1. Be sure you are buying pure Hoodia...look for the import certificate on the website. No matter the price, if they do not display this, you really do NOT know what you are getting!\n\n#2. Be sure it is 100% Hoodia & not mixed w/other herbs, etc.!!\n\n#3. Keep in mind it stops your hunger pangs…you MUST remember to break your habit to always eat at certain times.\n\n#4. Drink a full 8oz. glass of water with it!\n\nHoodia (HOOD-ee-uh) gordonii - A genus of 10 to 20 species from southwestern Africa. \nHoodia gordonii is the stoneage wonder plant found throughout the dry arid regions of the South western African continent now on the verge of making history in the fight against obesity. It is a genus belonging to the Asclepiadaceae family which consists of approximately 20 species. Used to stop hunger, quench thirst, and provide energy among other things since prehistoric times, Hoodia gordonii was first discovered by the San tribesmen and women to get through the most difficult of times. \n\nYou can read a good article about how it works at:\n\nhttp://www.hoodia-diets.info/hoodia-diet-capsules.htm\nhttp://www.hoodia-diets.info/hoodia-gordonii-diet-use.htm\nhttp://www.hoodia-diets.info\nhttp://hoodia-research.blogspot.com

While I was home over spring break, I used SmartBurn because my mom had recommended it and she was using it too.  I noticed results the first day, and truly couldn't believe it.  I took two capsules about an hour before I wanted to have lunch, and two before dinner.  Although it didn't increase my metabolism, I noticed a significant difference in appetite later in the evening.  I also had a little burst of energy later, too.  I only used it for a week, but I was pleased with my results.  I recommend trying it at least, but I also suggest you cut some calories and exercise regularly.\n\nBest of luck!

After reading this, get off your computer and speak with your doctor.  His medication cocktail for you is not working to your benefit.  If you need to, get a "second opinion" and don't let the cure kill you.  Good luck.

I haven't tried the diet but for the past week I have been having one in the morning. It taste gross like baby formula and smells the same, but it keeps the hunger down. I have been exercising like crazy (for me) (running 7 miles a day, 2 in the morning, 5 at night) and eating healthier I have lost 4 quick pounds. I mainly use slimfast to stop my hunger cravings not because I think it burns away the fat or gives extra energy.

Was not successful, for me.\n\n"Mindfulness Meditation worked (still works) for me !!!\nAuthor  Jon Kabat-Zinn PhD."!!!\n\nAnd I ate a good size healthy breakfast daily (still do),  a  moderate lunch and dinner.  Never eat after 5:30 PM.\nAnd always drink a Full 8 oz. glass of Water (not tap water) right before you eat lunch and dinner.  Keeps food consumption at a moderation.\nAnd lastly,  exercise every other day.\n20 to 30 min. of  Cardio.\n\nBe  Very  Patient  with  Yourself.  Be Kind to yourself  and  forgiving toward yourself also.\n\nExcellent Question.\n\nR.N. -  with  Masters  Degree.\n\nP.S. =  Diet pills are Not recommended.  They give most people the feeling that they are on Speed, or other recreational drugs.  And  I  know many people that are presently in  drug \nrehab. clinics because of there addiction to Diet Pills.

Didn't work well for me. Side effects - didn't really notice any. I was nauseated quite a bit though. Pro's vs Con's - most diet pills can work but only temporarily and they are not healthy for long term use. I had to make a change as I had to loose weight. I discovered that a natural and healthy approach is much better as I have tried all kinds of plans, diets, pills, etc (I'm 45). I just started a natural and healthy "No Diet Weight Loss" plan along with a healthy and natural high energy drink and I have lost 24 pounds and 2 3/4" in my waist in 31 days (Today being my 31st day on the plan) with 0 side effects - However, the choice is totally up to you and no one else

I've had friends use it and it seems to have worked for them.  They also tried to eat more healthy, so it was a good combination.
