most likely she used TrimSpa along with starving herself to death. Probably had a contract to lose XX amount of weight or else she wouldn't get paid.

Ephedra does. Now that it's illegal and 'fat burners' such as trimspa no longer have it, the answer is no.

Those pills reduce your hunger... they actually make you feel full. Herbal Life is another one... but it had ephedra which is now a big no-no.

She's still fat... I wonder what kind of gross, stretched-out body is under that black dress.

I tried a pill once that had ephedra in it- no other substance has ever made me feel like it was going to kill me than that one. I'm glad it's gone.

I used to know people who were weight lifters and trainers that purposely gained weight for a period of time, then contracted with these diet pills and programs and lost the weight right back.

They'd gain 20-30 lbs, then get on the pill, go back to their routines and lose that weight back in a month or two. Then show up on the ads. Its all legal since they really did lose the weight.

I don't think so. You're supposed to take Trimspa 1-2 minutes before eating... I doubt an appetite supressant would work that quickly. Anyway, it's supposed to absorb fat and 'neutralize' it in your stomach before the stuff gets into your intestines where it's absorbed into the body.

Ephedra should be a prescription drug imo. It was an effective tool for fat loss, but a few things killed it, namely lack of standardization and Darwin award winners. Dried up plant matter in gel-caps, which is the form it came in from many companies, will naturally vary in potency. On top of that you had people who hadn't lifted a finger in years, were overweight, and maybe smoked as well starting in on this 'miracle pill' (which, yes, does place a strain on the cardiovascular system). To make matters worse, many of those people were of the "if 1 is good, 30 is better" mentality, and some of those paid the ultimate price for their stupidity, ruining it for everyone. Status as a prescription medication would combat all of these things to the point of a safety margin in line with other prescription medications.

You're thinking of TrimSpa "Fat Blocker" Product. Anna is taking TrimSpa Ephedra Free which has appetite supressants along with other natural ingrediants. Two different products.

Anna Nicole is actually hot again. :Q

Disturbing.

Unfortunately, no matter how well it helps burn away fat, it doesn't cure the dumb-as-a-box-of-rocks disease

Because there's nothing I like better than a good conversation post-copulation.
