Diet pill??
Question:
Answer:
Do NOT take diet pills! They are dangerous!!
Last year I was visiting my parents and took diet pills on top on my exercise routine and normal diet. I was 26 at the time, 5'11, 180 lbs. By week three I was sick. I had diarrhea, dry heaves, dizziness, headaches, and a general feeling of being sick. I thought I had caught the flu or something. I had lost 13 lbs in 4 days. One morning I told my mom I didn't feel good. My vision kept blacking out and I felt (for lack of a better way to say it) stoned. Later that afternoon I was walking from the bathroom to my bedroom (a 5 foot walk) and I passed out. I was rushed to the hospital emergency where they did a bunch of tests on me.
My pulse was up to 120, My blood pressure was 150/40, they had to start me on an IV, the did an EKG on me, took blood and urine samples, and a whole barrage of other tests.
They finally got me stabilized and said that I was dehydrated and malnutritioned. I told him that I took diet pills. When I mentioned diet pill, the doctors face lit up and said that's why. He said they can cause a whole bunch of health problems, including death. He told me to toss the diet pills or next time I might not be so lucky.
I was kept in the hospital for almost 10 hours, given 3 or 4 IVs, potassium, juices, and monitored (by the EKG, blood pressure, and heart rate machines) every 15 minutes.
Please take my story as a warning. If you seriously want to loose weight there are better ways (I know because I've lost weight after this)
The quickest way to lose weight is to cut out red meats, starches, breads, sugars, alcohol, and sodas.
Eat veggies (salads are good), soups, and drink TONS of water. If you get hungry between a meal, drink water to fill up.
In moderation eat white meats, and fruits (fruits contain natural sugars, and that can put on weight)
Practice portion control. Yes, you'll feel hungry at first, but think of your goal, and soon your stomach will start shrinking and you won't have that feeling anymore.
Eat 5 times a day. A small breakfast. A mid-morning snack, such as an apple. A small lunch. A mid-afternoon snack, such as carrots. A lite dinner. Do not eat any later than 7pm (6pm is better.)
Go exercise for at least an hour - two a day, incorporating weight training along with your cardio. Cardio helps to melt the fat, while weight training builds muscle. Muscle burns fat, even when you are resting. You get the idea. It also gives tone and definition. Also do a few yoga and pilates exercises to help tone those hard to reach and stubborn areas.
They work but they are bad for your health
They reduce hunger make the metabolism faster its bad for the body. diet and exercise. Atkins diet worked wonders for my parents. look into it.
It's a scam for people who are desperate. Please don't waste your money. Follow the WEIGHT WATCHERS or DIABETIC diet. You get plenty of food and nutrients for your body. Things that promise quick fixes are just money in other peoples pockets. I lost 30 pounds on the Weight Watchers diet in 5 months. It's nutritious AND satisfying and COMPLETELY healthy. Try it. You've got nothing to lose but pounds! GOOGLE Weight Watchers or better yet.DIABETIC DIET. Same thing!
what diet pills do you mean? The prescription phentermine really helped me. I have never tried the slimquick, trimspa, none of the pills advertised on tv/ for sale at Walmart. My Dr gave me Phentermine, and it really helped me lose about 20 lbs over 3 -4 months. Some people lose more weight faster than i did. Its good for people who look forward to eating, always looking in the cabinets for something to munch on, or for those who eat when bored. It makes you feel not hungry. Hours can go by and you realize you have not eaten. You can look at a hamburger on tv and it really doesnt look good. You go to the cabinets, refrigerator and look inside.. its easy to turn away and say no because it doesnt look good at all. Once you are off of it though, same appetite comes back.. My Dr told me it is intended to be used as a jump start to a healthy weight loss plan. He says I can take it up to 6 months, and during that time, I am supposed to learn good habits like eating better foods, and exercise. The idea is that after 6 months, you dont need the pills.. It gets you over that initial hump.. you see results on the scale, so you are more motivated.
they are so dangerous. try avoiding them .
just ther is a pill called L CARNITIN which is burning the fat , it is not bad but only take one daily aftr break fast .of course please consult with you doctor
Let's face it, losing weight is no easy task.
But do not use pills!
1. Because most diet pills are just a form of speed.
2. Because they have side effects, so you can't take them forever - once you stop, theweight comes back.
3. Because diet pills are a poor substitute for what you shopuld be doing - eating healty foods in smaller portions and getting some excercise.

They can be beneficial when you combine them with a good diet and exercise.
If you are going to go the diet pill route, go natural.
There are two all natural diet pills that are safe and have no side effects. They are Cha de Bugre and Hoodia Gordonii.
Cha de Bugre, is a new weight loss supplement that is growing in popularity and is similar to Ma Huang (Ephedrine) without any of the bad effects. Cha de Bugre is from Brazil and has been used there safely for centuries. Cha de Bugre provides energy, fat burning and appetite suppression that benefit weight loss. Cha de Bugre also has additional uses that are known in Brazil that include being used as a mild diuretic, a cellulite reducer, aides in reducing herpes simplex outbreaks and a heart tonic. You can find more about it at http://hoodiagordonii.totalink.com/cha_d...
Hoodia Gordonii is a natural appetite suppressant derived from a South African cactus that the bushmen have eaten there for thousands of years. You need to make sure you get a strong pure hoodia that is certified to be genuine. Check out Totalink's unbiased Hoodia comparison at http://hoodiagordonii.totalink.com/hoodi... in the "Confidence" column it will indicate if the brand is "Certified". These Hoodia brands have the credentials to back up their product. Also in that column it will indicate if the brand is "Returnable". These Hoodia brands allow you to return opened bottles and get your money back. I think this indicates that a company has confidence in their product that it works.
Keep in mind that Hoodia Gordonii alone provides appetite suppression but not fat burning. Cha de Bugre is a fat burner but not as good as hoodia with appetite suppression. There are also brands that mix Cha de Bugre with Hoodia Gordonii and other weight loss herbs like Green Tea that can increase both fat burning and appetite suppression.
I have written a lot of articles on Hoodia. Just search Yahoo or Google under my name “Andrew Aitaken” to find them.
Remember, you should always consult your physician before taking any diet pill or weight loss supplement.
