Is Xenical a good diet pill? What are the pros & cons of taking it?
Question:
Answer:
XENICAL is a prescription medication that can help considerably overweight people lose weight and keep it off. However, recently the FDA was talking about letting Xenical be an Over the counter drug, which would be great !! the pros: it absorbs fat from the foods that you eat. and it really works, but you still need to watch your fat intake. the cons: be prepared to take a lot of potty breaks. and its rather foul. sorry.
loosing weight the normal way is always best. the pills might effect you in a way you wouldn't expect.
here're some things you can try before taking the pill and see if it works:
-as always, drink lots of water and eat lots of veggies!
-don't eat when you don't need to- when you don't feel hungry.
-having a nice walk in the park 30 minutes a day would help a lot. or you can go shopping which is something you might enjoy and move your legs while doing so!
-go with your friends to a local Y. use the treadmill or others and chat with your friends while exercising. time goes by quickly.
-play a sport you like
-while watching TV, do some kind of exercise during commercials
You can order it almost anywhere online. Just put in a search for Xenical and you will find many sites. It is very expensive. It works by causing your body to excrete all fats and oils. So you have to be careful of what you eat. You could eat pasta all day long and the Xenical wouldn't do any good. It causes gas and if you do eat any fat you have to get to a bathroom fast.
I only took it for about two months. It did not work well for me. You have to be so careful of what you eat while on Xenical, you might as well go it alone with diet and exercise. That is just my opinion of course. My sister took it for a month and it didn't really do anything for her (she didn't need to lose weight; she just thought she did).
No pill is good for dieting.
Exercise and healthy food is the best way.
Don't go sticking drugs in to yourself, they DON'T work with your body. They work by blocking natural instincts, ie to eat.
Get a good fitness regime and eat healthy.
Good Luck!
