Is there a pill out there to lose body fat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No Diet Pills Work!: Nope. There are no pills or other supplements that lead to true and permanent weight loss. Please do not be one of the gullible who want a magic bullet and thus postpone the life changing choices one makes to truly lose weight. To lose weight you must eat, but limit your calories to 1500 to 1800 per day. Your calories must be a majority from proteins (60%) and you must exercise.
