Real Talk Series - Talk on Diet Aids - click to comment
I personally used Metabolife when it first came out, I believe it was around 1999 and I was 50 pounds overweight. I remember it did make me feel jittery but I though that was good energy. I was a gym rat so it gave me the somewhere to put all that jittery energy. It was scary at times because I got dizzy when I got hungry because I was starving by the point my body gave the signal. I believe they pulled it off the market shortly after, go figure!
Despite the interest of many people and questions I got on this I really cold not find definite stories in person or online that established reliability for this product! I even found warnings on this product. I had to get a bottle to see what the ingredients were and so much for the natural claim.
The liquid pill promises and people say it half works but you need to have a strict diet and exercise. Well doesn't anything work with those external factors. Comments are that you can feel the thermogenics working throughout your body.
I heard the new Herbal like shaved 30 pounds of a young lady with no workouts but she wouldn't share the side effects.
I had a fred give me a bottle of left over Herbal Life Green tea for the ingredients. He said it was a good appetite suppressant but he could never remember to take it half hour before meals. He would take it with his meal which would impede him from giving an accurate report of its effects. He reported some jitter when he managed to use it the right way.
When the questions were asked about most of the stuff on the market, this is what I got back on deit aids:
Metabolife Comment: Slim Fast and Metabolife were the combination and i was faint and weak all the time! I did lose alot of weight, like thirty pounds but gained it all back in a month! It made me feel like I was having a hard attack all the time too. I would never touch that stuff again!
General Comment: most of those listed, I tried and they didn't work at all for me; was just a waste of money. I stay away from anything with stimulants added. In addition, i've tried lots of extra vitamins and minerals that are supposed to help boost metabolism and none of them have worked for me.
Xenadrine Comment: I used xenadrine in college and probably on and off for a few years after college. I am trying to remember what side effects it had but none are coming to mind. If I am remembering correctly you were suppose to take it after a meal, so for me that was my way to eat more and not feel guilty about it, I thought of it as a quick fix.
Xenadrine Comment: when it first came out it had ephedrine in a high does and it was pulled from the market. Before that, people reported losing 30 pounds! But the same people returned to it after it came back out and it didn't work for them.
Stacker 3 Comment: More recently though (i am thinking it was 2006-2008) I used Stacker 3. This one made my heart race when I was working out, especially when running. It also gave me problems sleeping because it elevated my heart rate so much. Once again I think it was suppose to be taken after meals so as with the xenadrine it was my way of feeling like it was ok to eat whatever I wanted to.
Oxy Lite Pro Comment:OxyLite Pro gave me the worst headache, repaid heartbeat,hot and cold sweats.
Alli Comment: Alli seems like it was working but I was eating less and better so I really cannot say that the pill worked. I know that it made me more conscious of eating because it said if you eat too much fat you will not be able to hold it in. I didn't wanna be running the the bathroom!
Grapefruit Pill Comment: 10 years ago I used this pill and it took 30 pounds off of me. It's not around now and I wish it was for everyone else. I have never gained the weight back but wonder if it was that I started to feel so good that I never sat still and became a lover of fruits and veggies!

"Pizza, Pizza"
Well, you can tell them that...
- pizza is made of grains
- has little fat if made properly; a napkin is used to pat out the excess grease
- the sauce is made of healthy tomatoes and you can load on the veggies
- the cheese gives you plenty of dairy
- choose chicken for your meat
And, my oh my we have a slice of pizza that fulfills all your food group requirements. A slice is around 220 calories so eat sensibly. Stop & Shop sells a thin, wheat pizza crust that is delicious. Add your ingredients with friends and family and you will be a hit in all aspects!
