| i am sure i a saw something on GMTV about these pills hun.......if you eat something really fatty it passes straight out of you......apparently you need to be permanently next to the loo.....
r u thinking of giving them a whirl? are they expensive?

| thats what I thought....
...that surely its the fact you CANT eat fatty foods stop you?!?!
but its meant to boost your weight loss by 50% so for every 2lb you lose you lose another 1lb!! If you just have a salad you dont need to take a tablet  | | | | Status: Offline

| Totally agree
these pills conjure up images from Frank in Shameless last night behind the tree
What i dont quite understand with these is that you are supposed to have a daily intake of fat, yes a small limited amount ... so what happens then?
Does it give you the poops anyway? And surely you must be having to drink tons of fluids to stop yourself dehydrating from the effects ... thus making you more bloated and unable to see the real weight loss effects? | | | | Status: Offline
