Why Should a Diet Pill Cost $150.00?

    I had lost 45 lbs. and then put it all back on from sitting at this  computer eating pop tarts and setting up 3 weblogs. This 45 pounds took a long time to lose. OK so I'm self destructive. Using the diet pill I lost 9 lbs. the first week. I'm a yo-yo for sure. I got more pop tarts and Girl Scout cookies but only gained back 4 pounds. Now I must say that the key to the whole diet is drinking a lot of water. This also flushes your system (as well as your toilet!) so that toxins are passed from your body. Now I drink 96 or more oz. of water a day. Yes, you do "tinkle" a lot, but that's ok because walking to the bathroom is a form of exercise. I have more pep (diet pill contains caffeine) but there are also really good herbs in the pill. I also noticed a remarkable change in my moods. I'm not depressed, and not crabby - two of my wonderful character traits.
    I would suggest drinking at least 80 oz. of water for a week, and then try the pill just for giggles to see what happens. If you can loose it with the water, you may not need the pill. As far as I go, need to loose 100 lbs. now so if I am loosing weight with the water and the pill, I would say it is a very good combo for me. I hope this helps you in some way. If you are working out, don't forget that muscle weighs more than fat, so if you are building muscles, your weight loss should be measured by a tape measure.

UPDATE:  You have to quit Pop Tarts, too.  The solution seems to be a combo of the herbal diet supplements and water.  At any rate, If it did cost $150.00, I doubt I would have tried it.  I think that's just a marketing tool.  I purchased mine on a popular online auction site.  I wish you all best of luck loosing!!

I am no nutritionist, but I have had some experience in the weight-loss department. Only 20 lbs, but it was all thanks to excercise and diet. No pills - pills are a shortcut, and a bad one at that. My problem was smoking. I told myself I could ride 30 miles to and from work and still smoke because I'm in exceptional shape. Well, smoking diminishes that edge in a large way, just like Pop Tarts, whole dairy and alcohol. I quit smoking, drinking and dairy, and lo and behold, the weight melted off. The key is on your head - how badly you want to lose the weight? I know you can do it - I did. Discipline :-)

Hiya Trudie, thanks for the comment on my blog. Yes, I did design it myself. I'm hoping to start a web design business within a year or so (right now I'm taking classes for it).

As for diets, I was diagnosed with Diabetes in January and am doing the South Beach diet, which is good for diabetics. I've lost 13 pounds, not much, but it's not water weight so it'll stay off as long as I keep on it. Good luck with your weight loss. I also need to lose right around 100 lbs to have an average BMI of 22. At least 75 lbs lost to get down to that 25 BMI mark. But I'm not worried about BMI, I need to get my blood sugar levels and insulin levels down.

Anyway, thanks for the compliment on my design!

I have fought my weight my whole life. I am now 50 lbs overweight. I just gets harder as you get older. I figure if you are happy with yourself then the weight isn't a problem, unless there are health issues.
