How safe is Propolene for weight loss ? Also How effective is it in weight loss combined with exercise?

Really; this is probably fairly safe - who can tell, there are so many poisins in the owrld. However, it will not be effective when trying to loose weight. It simply binds to water nd fat, making you feel artificially bunged up/full and taking away all the good fats you eeat in your diet. you should just eat less and excercise more. Unless you really wanna look like a model/arnie swarzneggar in which case you should go see a proper gym person who will really give some roids or something, or amph etc.

I have used it for years. A doctor told me it was a smart form of exercise because it involves the entire body. It was great to me for weight loss, to help with depression, and lethargy. I have recommended it numerous times.

Hi,\nI've tried all different diets, and the weight loss is only temporary. I finally tried diet pills on the market are made from Hoodia. I saw this stuff on ABC News. It's all natural and safe, and it works! My wife took it for a month and dropped 20 pounds. I took it for a month and lost about 13 (but I didn't exercise).\n\nI bought the natural hoodia from this website: http://www.alllsite.info/free-diet-pills.php . I checked the web site address so I can post it here and I saw they're running a promotion now to get a free 2 week sample for only $4.97! I'm going to order this supply for my wife and give it to her for Christmas =)

I've been taking it and have not noticed any weight loss, but I don't take it regularly.  I also take green tea pills, chromium picolate (SP?) and was taking Hoodia.  No real loss or changes.  I did hear a doctor on tv saying that everyone, everyone should take a multi and a fish oil. \n\nI have experienced weight loss by cutting back on beer (my vacation and de-stresser) and eating 1/2 a grapefruit every day, plus fresh lemon juice in my water.\n\nAs far as depression...talk to your doctor.  I know everyone says that, but do it.  Talk to him about weight loss too.  If he says to change your diet..and nothing else, see another doctor.  LOTS of folks have depression.  LOTS.  Your doctor has heard it many times and won't think you are a nut for saying it.  There are lots of meds for it, so you have options.

Fat burners are not a waste of money for people that need a bit of an edge.  Yes, it is true that diet and the right exercise plays a huge role in reducing body fat, but fat burners DO WORK for many people if you take them correctly.  They do help kick start your metabolism especially if taken in the morning on an empty stomach followed by aerobic activity.  I've tried all the one's you mentioned and others.  Some may make you feel more jittery and others outright nauseous.  They all pretty much do the same thing.  I found HotRox to be fairly effective for me, but Hydroxycut also works well.  Lipo6 made me feel a bit nauseous if I take the dosage they recommend, but it works well too.\n\nDon't get hung up on brands as they all are fairly equivalent.  It's how you take them, when you take them, what you do after you take them and what you eat that is far more important than the brand of fat burner.  That I guarantee.

The best diet pill that I ever used was Hydroxycut with Ephedra. Since they have taken out the Ephedra, it isn't the same at all. There is no other fat-burner that I have tried that is better than Ephedra. Good luck finding it though. All of the people that abused it and had adverse effects have made it illegal in many places. Alcohol can kill you too, and it does kill many people, but it's still legal. Makes you wonder why Ephedra is really illegal.

There is NO safe or effective diet pill.  Take a look at phen/fen and ephedra, they worked at losing wieght and giving you a heart attack.  The best and only safely proven way is eating in moderation and exercise.  I wish there was a magic pill, but it does not exist yet.  And dont believe any ad or commercial saying otherwise

I just started taking Slimquick three days ago.  I haven't seen any major results yet, but I have noticed my loss in cravings (especially for sweets), and a lot more energy.  If all of this energy keeps up, I should be able to do my cardio workouts longer, which hopefully will be able to help me lose more weight.

If weight loss is what you're looking for then here's what you need. The best combination for weight loss is calorie restriction, resistance training, and aerobic work. Let's start with calorie restriction. Over the years I have had personal training clients as well as athletes come to me wondering why they are not losing weight. They tell me they eat right, exercise right, say their prayers, eat their vitamins, etc., and they just can't seem to lose weight. Well, most of the time, once I really get to know them, I find that nutrition is the culprit. You need to know what you're eating. Most of the people I'm talking about all thought they did. \n\nHow do you change this? Well, it may sound tough, but it's not that bad. You need to keep track of what you eat for 2 days over the week, and 1 day over the weekend. Next, go to you're local book store. You can find charts, books, and computer programs that will help you analyze the foods you ate. Another suggestion would be to take your dietary recall to a nutritionist or exercise physiologist at your local college and let them find it for you. \n\nThese recalls will tell you how many calories you're getting plus where they are coming from. For example, are they coming from protein, carbohydrate, or fat. It will help you see where you stand nutritionally. \n\nNext, you need to get on a good strength program. When a person is losing weight, the weight comes from fat, as well as muscle. That's kind of an unfortunate thing because muscle is an important thing when keeping metabolism high. There is enough research out there to safely say that when going through a phase of high intensity aerobic work and calorie restriction, strength training decreases muscle wasting. So, in short, strength-train. It's important. I wouldn't strength-train for anymore that 20 to 30 minutes. You can get what you need in a short period of time. \n\nAfter the strength training, it's time to get on the bike, treadmill, stepper, track, whatever. Keep your workouts to 30 minutes and up in order to burn the calories. Train between 3 to 5 times per week. Keep your heart rate at 60 to 90% of heart rate max. \n\nDon't look at losing weight as some mysterious monster that you can't get the reins on. Look at it as nothing more than stored energy. That's what fat is?stored energy. If you had a tank full of energy and it kept filling up higher and higher, what would you do to keep your tank from growing too large from the excess energy? Well, burn some of the energy off. That's what you need to do to lose weight. Keep the "energy in" lower than the "energy out" and abracadabra, you're losing weight. \n\nNote: You need to change your routine every 2-3 weeks in order to get the best results. \n\nMonday \n\n\nLeg Press 2x12 \nChest Press 2x12 \nLat pull down 2x12 \nShoulder Press 2x12 \nDB Curl 2x12 \nTricep kickback 2x12 \nAerobic Work  30 or more minutes. \n\n Click Here For A Printable Log Of Monday! \n\nTuesday \n\n\nAerobic work 30 or more minutes of aerobic exercise.\nWednesday \n\n\nSame as Monday.\nThursday \n\n\nSame as Monday, or take a day of rest.\nFriday \n\n\nSame as Monday.\n\n\n-Brad

My gyno prescribed phentermine to me when I went to her with problems in conceiving. She told me I needed to lose some weight for that purpose. I have never taken any diet pills before. I have been on them for 8 days and have lost 5 lbs. I've never lost that fast before. However, I am cutting back alot and am exercising periodically as well. So, yes, it really works...but make sure to do the exercise/drink water as well so you can make the most of it. You shouldn't stay on it too long. Good luck!!

Just the facts, ma'am.  Slow is better because you lose more fat and less "other".  It is only physically possible to lose 1-2 lbs. of fat in a week, and fat is what you want to lose. It takes 3500 calories to make a lb. of fat, so you have to "burn" or reduce your calorie intake by about 7000 in a week to lose to lbs. of pure fat.  If your daily calorie needs are 2500 per day, and you diet at 1500 calories per day, you have created a 1000 calorie daily deficit which will equal about 2 lbs. of fat loss, mostly.  When losing weight, one does inevitably lose some muscle. The best way to prevent extra muscle loss is to be sure you get 40 g of protein daily while dieting (at least 2 decent servings of meat) and do some weight lifting. When you're lifting, your body is building new muscle which helps prevent the loss of muscle tissues. It's rare to gain much muscle while dieting, but just maintaining it will keep your metabolism higher.  More muscle on your frame equals more calories burned daily without exercise.   Exercise does help, but it should be a combo of cardio and weights.    Eating lots of veggies and fiber helps because fiber absorbs fat. I g fiber absorbs 1 g fat = 9 calories per gram that never lands on your hips.\nThe most important factor in keeping the weigh off is to find healthy snack and recipes that you enjoy so that you don't feel like you're "sacrificing" for the rest of your life. It's key to learn healthy habits and choices that you can live with.  Try some Healthy Choice desserts and ice creams.  Better yet, go to www.cookinglight.com and get 2 free trial issues. The food is so fabulous that you would never know that it was healthy. I started using their recipes almost 10 years ago and now that's pretty much all I cook. I've had tons of people eat at my house and never say,"Is this low-fat?" What I do get are rave reviews on my food and wine.

People always want to take diet pills to lose weight, but there is no substitute for good old-fashioned exercise.  I think if a person wants to lose weight & be healthy he/she should change their lifestyle & be physically fit overall, not just rely on pills.  Once you stop taking the pills, you have to think how you're going to maintain your shape & continue to keep the weight off.  I suggest exercising.  Taking a walk is great exercise, especially if you walk at a brisk pace - it burns a lot of calories.  Do some aerobics (I use The Firm & it's really fun) or kickboxing, anything to get your heart rate up & burn fat.  Try to do a variety of things so you stay motivated & don't get bored.

Not tried it.  Look at studies:\n\nWhite Kidney Bean Extract Induces Weight Loss\nKEARNY, N.J.--Phase 2, a concentrated starch neutralizer extracted from the white kidney bean, proved effective for weight loss, according to final results of a clinical trial released by Pharmachem Laboratories Inc. on Dec. 10. The study, which the company noted is being considered for publication, involved 50 subjects who were randomly assigned to receive Phase 2 or placebo for eight weeks. Subjects taking Phase 2 lost an average of 3.8 pounds, which was approximately 200-percent more than the loss experienced in the placebo group, according to the company (www.pharmachemlabs.com). And, subjects taking Phase 2 also lost 1.5 inches from their waists, which was 43-percent more than the reduction seen in the placebo group. \n\n"One of the most surprising results of the study was the impact that the starch neutralizer had on triglycerides, a form of bad cholesterol," said Jay Udani, M.D., medical director of the Integrative Medicine Program at Northridge Hospital Medical Center in Los Angeles. "There was a dramatic 26-point drop in triglyceride levels, on average, for patients taking the starch neutralizer, while those on placebo averaged only an 8-point drop in triglyceride levels."

Selinium is an awsome way to lose weight. It doesn't cost a lot of money and you can find it at pretty much any health store. It's not really even a diet pill. It doesn't speed up your heart or give you tones of energy like other things. When you take it everything is normal. What it does is it just speeds up your matabolism. I take one every day alond with being on a diet. I started this last year around Christmas and I have already lost 28 pounds.

On their own, not likely.  As an ingredient in other pills such as Xenadrine, somewhat.  But even then, weight loss pills are most effective because they give you a little more energy and most importantly, encourage you to exercise, not because they burn more fat.

Garbage!  All hype...\n\nLipodrene works well.  It's the strongest diet pill (without a prescription).  The FDA banned it for awhile, but it's back on the market again.

Hi Lucky,\n\nI just started taking it today. I am approx 145 pounds at 5'3. When I first took the two pills with breakfast I was feeling kind of fearful because the pills made me loose feeling in my skin. Plus I read some article that chromium could be bad for you. Nevertheless, I still want to experiment. The pills won't take your hunger away completely I think, but it helps you have more control. I must say I had an explosion of energy and had to go work out on my treadmill till I burned 350 calories to get the pill out of my system. I think because I am such a small girl at age 33, I just need to perhaps take less pills. So, I am going to reduce the amount to just one a day. Because I think they are way too strong for me. I just simply could not concentrate after taking them, all I wanted to do was get rid of the strange feeling that overcame me. It sort of felt like I drank 2 cups of coffee and could not sit still, to me that was a bit scary but, I am going to get through it, losing 20 pounds means a lot to me. The directions state you should lose a few pounds after the first week and then, they should start falling off a lot after the first week. Did you lose any weight at all? I will let everyone know my results after my first 10 days. ...then 20 days...and then 30 days to see if this stuff really works...I will eat right, not overly so, and I will exercise to burn atleast 200 calories a day. Let me know how it goes, and if anyone is experiencing the same emotions as I when taking this pill.
