Just a couple minutes ago, they showed a commercial for some brand new weight loss pill that promises dramatic weight loss without any effort or work on the part of the person trying to lose weight. And, I won't name the product, because there's no way I'm going to give free advertising to a product that I think is a sham. I can't believe these companies are still allowed to advertise sham weight loss products on television. Why doesn't the government put their foot down and stop them. Don't they know that people actually believe this stuff?
In my opinion, I don't think that stuff works anyway. If a person is not willing to make some changes in their eating habits, they are not going to get weight loss results.
Have you seen the weight loss commercials on TV where they promise lots of weight loss with little effort? Don't they look like a sham to you?

I don't trust any of these "medical" offers of quick weight loss. I don't think they are healthy. The best way to lose weight is just to eat less and exercise more. That way you know you are not putting chemicals in your body that may end up hurting you more than they help. I've never taken a weight loss pill, and never plan to.

I have seen them and I'm certain they are fake- the before and after pictures look nothing alike- I too am sick of all the infomercials for weight loss- It's unbelievable- The only way to lose it is to eat healthy and exercise- I'm sure some diets work- weight watchers and stuff- but I don't think the pills work either!

beautyqueen26,
There are so many weight loss products on the market right now it's hard to keep up. I also needed to lose about 60 lbs and recently lost 20lbs in 4 months using a cleansing and fat loss system which was challenged on both Fox and ABC News - http://loseweightnaturally.info
I never received any claims from the company that I would not have to do anything. I would stay away from anything that claims you don't have to do anything.
