[cinnzeo]

for those of you who plan to take diet or fat burning pills to reduce weight or body fat, please think rationally first. there is no wonder pill in the world that will work like magic or that seems effective without side effects. most of them causes the person to have steatorrhea or fatty stools. some give you palpitations, headaches and the like. it depends on a person to person basis. one popular agent is xenadrine which you can buy in GNC or other specialty stores. it increases your metabolic rate, and in many people...increased heart rate and palpitations (which may be dangerous). there are also popular diet pills coming from china or other parts of asia that works like xenical. it seizes the fat in what you eat and helps you pass it out. problem with that if you are a chronic user, you are at risk of developing vitamins A,D,E,K deficiency. why? these are fat soluble vitamins, they need fat in you diet to be absorbed by your body.

 

my advice to those people who still want to take those pills....go ahead so long as your careful and rational. exercise and a hypocaloric diet is enough until you've reached your desired weight. then you can eat anything u want (in moderation of course) but still maintain the rate of exercise you have. you'll see. try it.

 

be realistic with your weight loss regimen. in the first few weeks, you'll see several pounds lossed but it will soon taper off to a regular value. it some people a pound or two a week. dont despair, dramatic weight loss is not good. so guys, discipline and commitment lang =>

 

*this is mostly my opinion based on experiences with my own patients. if there are any violent reactions, please feel free to let me know. i might learn something from you

short version: there is no magic pill. the formula is right mindset + clean diet + exert effort to exercise + rest + supplementation

 

it comes last

[dashing_debonaire]

regardless if it is otc, it would be best to consult w/ your doctor first or better yet, a nutritionist/dietician.

[hitme!!]

my friend took herbal diet pills that contained chitosan. in two weeks time, you can really see results. dosage was twice daily for the first week. 1 tab in the morning 30 mins before breaksfast and 30 mins before dinner.  :mtc:

ano effect sa kanya? how much po 'to? is there no side effects?

 

Tnx!

[bluegreen717]

I was on Xenadrine EFX and Xenadrine NRG for some time. I combined it with plenty of cardio and a low-carb diet.

 

Xenadrine NRG had a stronger effect on me...by stronger, I mean stronger palpitations! The first few on NRG, I felt hyper. I was shaking and sweating profusely as if I were on crystal meth.

 

I got off it after a few months. Verdict? Stick to cardio for fat burning, weights training for building muscle (and better metabolism), and a good, sensible diet. Xenadrine alone cannot help you lose weight. If it does, placebo lang siguro.

 

Xenical? Haha...really disgusting! You'll lose weight alright, and s**t in your pants at the same time!

Follow these "Change Your Life" tips to lose

weight, improve your nutrition and help stay slim

forever.

 

1. Set Multiple Goals: Instead of setting an

intimidating, unrealistic goal like "I will lose

20 pounds by Christmas," set small, achievable

goals like, "I will lose from 2 to 5 pounds this

month by following my plan and exercising."

 

2. Re-set Your Goals: Each time you achieve your

goal, give yourself a (non-food!) reward like a

massage or tickets to your favorite team's next

game, and then set another goal.

 

3. Step by Step: Each week, change ONE food habit

to a healthier one. Do this every week. For

example, change from whole milk to 2-percent milk

this week. Next week, change to 1-percent milk;

the next week try nonfat.

 

4. Your Diet: Dieting doesn't end when you lose

all the weight you want to lose. Your diet is what

keeps you slim, and needs to be healthy,

personalized to your needs.

 

5. Don't Be Fooled: Read nutrition labels, and

ignore the pretty pictures. Just because there's a

picture of fruit on the package doesn't mean there

is fruit in the package. Some examples of this

misleading packaging are fruit roll-ups, fruit

juice drinks, and cereals like Fruit Loops.

 

6. Great Start: Eat a non-sweet or just slightly

sweetened cereal every morning for breakfast.

Kashi GoLean, Shredded Wheat, Bran Flakes and

Total are good choices. So is hot oatmeal.

 

7. De-Stress: Reduce stress and increase immunity

by getting enough sleep, exercising regularly, and

eating a nutrient-rich diet including fresh fruits

and vegetables.

 

8. New Brew: Drink green tea instead of coffee for

a mid-morning pick-me-up: it may have

immunity-boosting properties.

 

9. Light Dinner: Have a salad for dinner. Add a

can of wild salmon to a bag of mixed greens. Add a

cup each of chopped tomato, onion, cucumber,

broccoli, shredded carrots and any other crunchy

vegetable you like.

 

10. Sweet Promise: Swear off all sweetened bottled

beverages forever. Soda, sweetened teas and

bottled juice drinks are empty calories in a

bottle and are linked to increased rates of obesity.

 

11. Pop Corn: Invest in a hot air popcorn popper.

It's just as quick as microwave popcorn, and it

makes a fiber-rich, guilt-free snack without trans

fat or cholesterol.

 

12. Abstain: Swear off all fried foods for the

next month. Bake, broil, grill or saut with

broth, wine or water in a nonstick pan. You'll

find that you won't miss fried, forever.

 

13. Powerful Rule: Adopt "on the side, please" as

your rule when dining out. This applies to salad

dressing, sauces and gravies.

 

14. Code for Calories: "Crispy" and "crunchy" are

code words for added sugar and/or fat to packaged

products. Buy the original versions.

 

15. Neutral: Food is not bad or good. Food doesn't

have human qualities. Food is either healthy, or

fatty, or high in fiber, or high in calories.

Choose based on your goals.

 

16. Stop Now: Resign from the Clean Plate Club.

Eat as much as you need, and if you're full, then

stop and take the rest for a snack or meal tomorrow.

 

17. Sweet Snack: Plan for a sweet snack that's

good for you. A perfect treat is a 6-ounce cup of

calcium-fortified sugar-free or fat-free hot

chocolate; it has only about 50 to 60 calories.

 

18. Sweet Tea: Avoid sweetened teas, even if

they're labeled natural. Most have water and

high-fructose corn syrup as the first two

ingredients and about 200 calories per serving.

 

19. Read Labels: Most bottled sweetened beverages

contain at least 2.5 servings per container, or

about 500 calories per 20-ounce bottle. Most drink

the whole bottle!

 

20. Weight Loss Mantra: Adopt the "Been there,

done that" mentality when it comes to food. For

example, you had a great meal. You're full. When

offered dessert, you think, "Been there, done

that," and take a pass.

 

21. No White Foods: Avoid "white" salads, dips and

casseroles. White usually means mayonnaise, cream

cheese and sour cream.

 

22. Whole Grains: Whole Grains have more

nutrition, taste and fiber, and they make you

fuller. Read the nutrition panel on the package;

the first ingredient should be whole wheat or

other whole grain. Wheat or enriched flour doesn't

make it whole wheat.

 

23. Adventure: Explore the neighborhood on foot,

and don't be a stranger. Wherever you are, take a

stroll around the block and expand your horizons

while getting some exercise.

 

24. Add Crunch: Instead of salad croutons (usually

high in trans fat), add some chopped walnuts,

almonds, or sunflower seeds. Theyre all good

sources of healthy fat, plus fiber, vitamins and

minerals, too!

 

25. Portion Control: Mega plates make

average-sized portions look smaller. I serve

everything on salad plates, which helps avoid

portion distortion.

 

26. Tomato Power: Switch from ketchup to salsa for

excellent antioxidants. Make your own: Add to a

cup of chopped, seeded tomatoes two tablespoons

each of chopped red onion, seeded cucumber, red

pepper and cilantro (optional). Whisk and add to

vegetables two tablespoons of balsamic vinegar,

one teaspoon of olive oil, one teaspoon of lime

juice, one garlic clove, minced and a quarter

teaspoon of black pepper.

 

27. Anatomy Is Not Destiny: Even if your mother,

father and siblings are overweight, you can

outsmart your genes with a healthy diet and

exercise. Light weight training can actually

change your body type so you can stay slim more

easily.

 

28. Drink to Your Health: A glass of wine with

dinner may have health benefits. Men limit to two;

women stay with one glass. Exceptions to wine

include pregnant women, or if your doctor advises

you abstain.

 

29. Veggie Power: Snack on quick and easy (and

nutritious) vegetables. Frozen veggies are

ultra-convenient: I love broccoli florets or mixed

zucchini and carrots. Sprinkle with some herbal

seasonings or dehydrated butter flakes.

 

30. Build Muscle: Replace fat stores with lean

muscle and improve your fat-burning naturally.

Start gradually, and work up to at least three

days a week of training with resistance bands and

light weights. Consult with your doctor if you've

not worked out before.

 

31. Portion Distortion: Most people underestimate

their intake, and take in more calories daily then

they think. Break out the food diary and, for one

week, measure what you eat and make adjustments if

necessary based on your meal plan.

 

32. Slow It Down: Eating too fast usually means

eating more than you need. Give your brain time to

catch up with your stomach: It takes about 20

minutes to feel the food, so savor your food. When

you enjoy it more, you'll be satisfied with less.

 

33. Energy: Health experts tell us that overweight

and obesity increase your risk for heart disease,

Type 2 diabetes and stroke, but there's also the

toll excess weight has on your energy. Overweight

not only makes you feel sluggish, it's hard on

your muscles and tendons.

 

34. Eat: Don't eat too little! Poor nutrition

decreases energy, and can depress immunity. Too

few calories can play havoc with your metabolism.

Lose weight in a healthy way, with a balanced meal

plan and sufficient calories to fuel your engine.

 

35. Bad Habits: Do you drink too much (choose as

many as apply to you) Coffee? Alcohol? Soda?

Excess caffeine can keep you up late; the more

caffeinated beverages you drink the stronger the

effect. Some sodas have as much caffeine as a cup

of coffee. Alcohol also negatively affects sleep.

 

36. Break the Fast: Start your day with breakfast.

Studies show that those who eat breakfast have

more energy for the rest of the day. People who

skip breakfast are not as alert, not as

productive, and tend to be more overweight

compared to people who eat breakfast.

 

37. New Breakfast: Don't like breakfast foods? Try

a sandwich, and make it a lean one, such as turkey

on whole wheat bread. A fruit smoothie made with

yogurt and fruit is delicious and balanced.

 

38. Take a Multivitamin: Even if you're eating a

balanced diet, a daily multivitamin is nutritional

insurance that you'll get the minimum of the

requirements you need for energy. Your body can

take advantage of all the foods you eat when you

have all the vitamins and minerals necessary to

complete the chemical reactions needed for energy.

 

39. Switch To Whole: Whole grains, unpeeled fruit,

salads and vegetables help you maintain your

weight. Unprocessed contain the most valuable

nutrients and energy imaginable. You will feel so

much better when you switch to whole.

 

40. Reduce White Sugar: If you eat sugar when

you're feeling low you'll create a rebound effect

that makes you crave more sugar. The rush of sugar

is very short-lived, and sugar is essentially just

empty calories, void of vitamins and minerals.

 

41. Sleep: The average person requires 7.2 hours

of sleep to feel rested. There are exceptions;

Bill Clinton needed only 4 to 5 hours, but Albert

Einstein needed about 10 hours. There is something

to be said for dreaming! Whatever you need, be

sure to get it.

 

42. Diet Liquids: Fluids are necessary to process

foods and to absorb nutrients; to regulate your

body temperature; and for elimination. Drinking

water is a good habit to learn. Instead of a can

of soda, reach for a glass of water. Sip often;

don't wait until you're thirsty to avoid dehydration.

 

43. Move: When you park your engine in the garage

and never take it out, it'll rust. Feeling

sluggish? Breathe. Your body needs oxygen; you'll

be amazed at how energetic you'll feel by doing

some deep breathing exercises. Stretch, roll your

shoulders, tense your muscles and then relax; this

will increase the blood flow and energize you

immediately. Increase your heart rate by fast

walking, or dancing, or even marching in place.

 

44. Prepare to Succeed: Have healthy snacks

available for snack attacks! Buy pre-cut fresh,

crunchy vegetables for a quick snack. Microwave

frozen veggies, and sprinkle with Butter Buds or

herbal seasoning for a tasty snack.

 

45. Cravings: If you have sugar cravings, keep it

nutritious with a sugar-free hot chocolate. It

goes great with a crisp Granny Smith apple. The

combination of tart and sweet is infinitely

satisfying.

 

46. Cancel Your Account at the Coffee Shop: Coffee

is an addiction that's shaking our wallets. Are

you stepping out a couple of times a day to buy

coffee? That's an expensive proposition, and is an

unnecessary temptation. I've spoken to people who

say they just "can't resist" the sweet rolls and

cookies in the display case. I say, stay away!

 

47. Bring Lunch: Buying lunch everyday is a budget

buster, and it's more difficult to control your

calories. Save money by bringing your healthy

lunch and snacks to work or school, and put the

money toward a reward that enhances your health,

such as a new bike or a gym membership.

 

48. Write in Your Journal: Each day, set aside at

least 10 minutes to log what you ate, when you ate

it, and how you felt when you ate it. Journaling

helps you pinpoint the times when you need more

help, so you can strategize for success.

 

49. Talk to Yourself: Write a list of affirmations

on a note card to keep in your car, or desk, or

purse. "I will do it," "I am worth it" or "One day

at a time" works well! Read your affirmations

first thing in the morning and throughout the day.

Savor the meaning, and you will succeed.

 

50. Your Buddy: Walking is more fun with someone;

you'll motivate and support each other. If no

friend is available, use your personal stereo to

listen to your favorite tunes or talk show.
