Question 1

what can be done to shed pounds fast without diet pills?

Calories: Calories taken in must be lower than calories burned off. It is that simple.

Question 2

what are things i can do to lose weight fast without diet pills?

Accepted Answer

Diet: Diet, exercise, rest, sleep, reduced portions.

Question 3

i just need to lose 15-20 pounds. what diet pills work, are available over the counter?

Accepted Answer

No pills: Simple sugars and processed carbs should be avoided or limited. This includes any flour product. The fine grind makes absorption quick, and spikes your blood sugar which increases Insulin and promotes weight gain. Good fats such as olive oil and coconut oil are fine in sensible amounts. Eat a rainbow of organic vegetables and just enough protein.

Question 4

i bought grapefruit diet pills and read that you can use them to lose weight. how much weight will i lose and how fast?

Unclear: No evidence that these type of pills improve weight loss.

Question 5

i need to lose 15 pounds in a week. i weight 150 and im 5'2". what can i do? what diet pills do you recommend? does grapefruit help to lose weight?

Accepted Answer

Lose 2 lbs this week: Helpful diets include natural foods that take time to chew but contain few calories. Examples include carrots, celery, and iceberg lettuce (without salad dressing). When shopping for fruits, buy small ones no bigger than a tennis ball, because fruits contain natural sugar. Drinks without calories include water and green tea. A calorie is a calorie, regardless of where it comes from. No diet pills.

Question 6

phentermine diet pills? is it a fast way to lose weight?

Accepted Answer

No: I would strongly avoid any and all dietary supplements as they will not provide long term weight loss and could possibly even be harmful.  Weight loss requires dietary changes and moderate exercise - with a larger focus on making dietary changes. Those who look to pills even to "help" with weight loss usually are not truly ready for making the changes necessary for long term weight loss success.

Question 7

i've just had a baby and want to lose weight fast.  has anyone used diet pills that actually work?

Accepted Answer

Appetite suppressant: After pregnancy the weight will come off but with time. Breast feeding burns 500cal/day & will help with weight loss. If you are not breastfeeding, decreasing your calorie intake by 500cal/day will help you lose weight. If you need more help it may be better to follow with a medically supervised weight loss program where they can give you appetite suppressants & monitor your body composition & you.

Question 8

i want to lose from 195 pounds to 159, is there any exercise i can do or any thing diet pills or supplements?

Accepted Answer

Don't need pills or: supplements. Eat healthfully &amp; be physically active. Aim for 7.5 to 8 hrs of sleep / night. Hydrate w at least 64 oz of water / day. Calories burned must &gt; calories consumed.  Do both cardio &amp; weight training.

Question 9

are diet pills right for me? i want to use diet pills to help jump start my weight loss. i am 5' 1" and i weigh 135 pounds. my goal is to lose only 10-20 pounds.

Accepted Answer

There : There is not one single study that demonstrates any long term success in patients who use diet pills.  Most diet pills have significant side effects.  You are very close to an ideal body weight.  You most likely already have knowledge of healthy eating habits and exercise habits.  The best choice may be to see a nutritionist or personal trainer to cement some excellent skills with eating choices and exercise which have proven benefit.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

What are you buying?: What kind of "pills" are you seeking?  Its great if you desire appropriate multi-vitamins &amp; minerals that meet your recommended daily allotments to supplement a weight loss diet.  Reputable appetite suppressants are also available in the correct settings, and none come with tapeworms, seriously!
