What Diet pills are safe, work, and have been tested?

[petricabilo]

Also what are the side effects, or are there none? I am kind of desperate to lose weight very soon. school starts soon and i need help.
Has anyone taken diet pills, if so please give your feedback on your experience with it.
I just need to know about pills, not be lectured so please dont =l .
Or if not pills, is there something that eats fat, some kind of medicine or something?

However - as you're about to find out from the deluge of posts that follow - the best, most "safe" route is to change your lifestyle. If you only want to lose weight (and not build muscle), you only have to change your eating habits. Switch to lean meat (turkey, chicken, tuna) and complex carbs (brown rice, sweet potatoes, broccoli). Eat 6 small meals a day instead of 3 big ones to deal with food cravings. Expect to lose about 2 pounds a week, otherwise you run the risk of getting "loose skin" (search on google images for that) if you are very overweight.

That's pretty much it. You can exercise if you want to, but mostly you need to change your eating habits to lose weight. Exercise will make you healthy and help you slim down faster and stay slim, as well as build muscle.

2 people I know had their doctors put them on hGC, they do like 15 drops a day and eat only 500 calories. You can't stay doing it for longer than I believe 45 days, but holy crap one of them told me he lost 32lbs in a month. The other 27. After you stop taking the stuff you'd have to find a safer pill that works longer term. But for short term I've never seen anything like hGC. Almost as crazy as the # of lbs they shed, both told me they're never hungry. 1 use to eat 2 double cheese burgers and a 44oz coke every morning for breakfast. To see him only eating 500 calories and his mood's perfectly fine just blows me away.

Most of the amphetamine based ones seem to work quite well...

I heard Cocaine works well.

Any psychomotor stimulant (i.e. cocaine, β-phenylethylamine derivatives) is usually great for appetite suppression. Easiest ones to get are probably pseudoephedrine and ephedrine, which are sold otc as sudafed and primatene, among other brand names.

Keep in mind, there are obviously side effects with such stimulants and they're much more useful as appetite suppressants than for increasing your metabolic rate.

if you want to lose weight and keep it off, diet pills and other 'magic bullets' arent going to work.

eat better and healthier and make some lifestyle changes.

Caffeine is a safe and effective stimulant / appetite suppressant and has tons of positive effects, as long as you keep consumption to a reasonable level. Drink 2-3 cups of coffee per day, black or with a bit of half&half. The rest should come from lifestyle and diet changes. Cut out sugars and sodas, stay at a calorie deficit, get some physical activity at least 3-4 days/week, and don't lose more than 2-3lbs/week because of the loose skin issue as mentioned above.

Although I made a pretty penny off of Vivus in the past week, I wouldn't recommend Qsymia to anyone...especially women. Belviq (former lorcaserin, from Arena) is much safer.

There is more to HCG than doing the drops. Chances are those individuals if men and are responding so well to it, they have low hormones (testosterone / etc).

It seems like this thread is full of spammers? 3 people with 1 post each... 2 of which recommend different products with specific name brands.

Put yourself on a 500 calorie diet and you will lose as much weight w/o the HCG. It's called starvation and thats most likely the reason the diet only works for 45 days. Your body will get used to it and slingshot that weight right back on when you go off the diet. The only diet that works is to eat right for life and excercise.

lol bro, I am sure Batman and the Machinist followed this dogma.

[thescholar]

I really don't recommend pills...

One diet that worked like a charm for me is the raw food diet. I changed from fat to skinny a summer. I also made a lot of jogging on the beach.
