Not tried it.  Look at studies:\n\nWhite Kidney Bean Extract Induces Weight Loss\nKEARNY, N.J.--Phase 2, a concentrated starch neutralizer extracted from the white kidney bean, proved effective for weight loss, according to final results of a clinical trial released by Pharmachem Laboratories Inc. on Dec. 10. The study, which the company noted is being considered for publication, involved 50 subjects who were randomly assigned to receive Phase 2 or placebo for eight weeks. Subjects taking Phase 2 lost an average of 3.8 pounds, which was approximately 200-percent more than the loss experienced in the placebo group, according to the company (www.pharmachemlabs.com). And, subjects taking Phase 2 also lost 1.5 inches from their waists, which was 43-percent more than the reduction seen in the placebo group. \n\n"One of the most surprising results of the study was the impact that the starch neutralizer had on triglycerides, a form of bad cholesterol," said Jay Udani, M.D., medical director of the Integrative Medicine Program at Northridge Hospital Medical Center in Los Angeles. "There was a dramatic 26-point drop in triglyceride levels, on average, for patients taking the starch neutralizer, while those on placebo averaged only an 8-point drop in triglyceride levels."

The preparation of tea alone actually helps to take your mind off of junk food. The heat from the tea fills you up, and the aroma helps to satisfy your cravings.\n\nTip 2: Limit High Carbohydrate Foods\n\nTo maximize the fat-burning process, it's best to gradually eliminate carbohydrates toward the end of the day.

Motivation really keeps you going!\n\nTip 5: Use Low-Calorie Food Alternatives\n\nTry to save as many calories as you can. Substitute water for soda, baked chicken for fried chicken, sub sandwiches for pizza, etc.\n\nTip 6: Don't Starve Yourself\n\nStarving only promotes a bigger "rebound" effect because your body likes to hold on from what it is deprived of. Instead, fuel the body every 2 to 3 hours with small meals.\n\nTip 7: Drink 1 or More Glasses of Water Before Meals\n\nThis is to help fill the stomach and give you a full feeling. I

You can lose weight by drinking more water. Forget about the hibiscus flowers.

Firstly, a significant diet change aimed at weight loss will automatically cause you to lose excess water from your body tissues before you ever lose any fat cells.\n\nSecondly, what kind of a diet are you on? For instance, an "all meat" diet will make you urinate more frequently mainly because meat protein raises the acidic levels in the blood, and your body in its effort to maintain a balanced PH level, will be in a continual state of "flushing out".\n\nKnowing nothing about you or the type of diet you are on, all I can highly recommend is that you get enough good carbohydrates (primarily in the form of vegetables & fruits) into your system everyday. \n\nAside from that, though I can't tell you what to do regarding the taking of diuretics, I need to point out that this is not natural to the body and so will certainly have some side-effects.\n\nFinally, many years ago I too used to retain water and it turned out that, ironically, I wasn't drinking enough water and so my body, believing it was in some sort of drought period, struggled to hold on to every drop of it.\n\nHope this helps - good luck with your diet - be healthy.

Herbalife products work for many people.  I've tried them and I like the wild berry flavor.  I've lost 15 pounds in a month with a combination of shakes and exercise.  Some people will initially lose inches around the waist before they lose any weight.  Being consistent (such as allowing equal time between meals and shakes) plus light exercises will help.  The pills sometimes made me nauseous.  I asked my distributor and he recommended something called "Herbal Aloe Drink".  Herbaldietshop.com has a good weight loss FAQ if you are concerned about your program. Good luck!

My husband, who does research at the University of Hawaii med school, was telling me this weekend about a clinical study they saw a presentation on demonstrating how bitter melon helped control borderline diabetes in rats, which resulted in significant weight loss after their bloodsugar was stabilized.\nSo guess what we bought at the nutrition store this weekend? ;)

I would AVOID any weight loss supplement.  They are not healthy.  I lost weight (lots of it) without a supplement.  How?  Read on: Cut all processed food and watch the weight fly off! Eat veggies, fruit, unprocessed meat, low fat dairy. Stay AWAY from white sugar, flour, corn syrup. If you can't hunt it or gather it, don't eat it! I lost 30 lbs eating this way. You would be amazed how much better you feel once you cut out sugar,white flour, and the chemical additives in processed foods! You will have much more energy. Substitute your sugar intake with Stevia (300X sweeter than sugar) and no calories or carbs! It is natural and does not raise the glycemic index. Important tip:  Shop only on the outer rim of the Supermarket. Good LUCK!!

No it's not baking powder  that does it.  It's baking soda and not alone but with lecithin\nIt  helps the lecithin break down the hard body fat quicker!  Dandelion tea will work too if you don't put any sweetener in it! There are many herbal teas available in your local health food store that can help you lose weight.  Be sure you really need to lose weight. Most any worker in the Healthfood store will tell you if your right to lose weight if you tell him or her!\nI find Clover tea works best for me!  What works fast on one might not do as well on another!

Well, what I've done to lose weight is stay away from soda and candy (all together) and don't eat any meat. To get protein eat rice mixed with beans (any kind (I use kidney beans)). It really helps. Also, exercise every day. Jog around the block a few times, do some sit-ups, and dancing is actually REALLY good exercise too. Hope I've helped.

I had it a while back, you do lose like 20 inches, but bear in mind these inches add up to like 1/4 of inch here and 1/3 of an inch there, they mark about 20 parts of your body.  Must admit, I did feel cleansed and lighter after it and if you detox for about 3 days after you do lose more.\nIt works for a quick fix or as a kick start of a diet.\nPointless if you do wot my mate did........went into the chippie next door to the salon after having one!!!!!!!!!!!!

The only weight loss product that works is the one called "Diet & Exercise".  Everything else is 'snakeoil'.  Don't buy it.  It'll make you sick, rather than healthy.  If it worked, wouldn't it be on the front page of the Times?
