Best Diet Pills
Posted: 01-25-06 13:20pm

Im thinking about trying slimquick or zantrex 3, has anyone tried either of these before and did they actually work for you? I'm only looking to lose about 10lbs, but can't seem to loose any more weight. I work out 4 times a week and eat healthy but am having a hard time losing the last 10.

If you are working out and eating healthy then a diet pill is not going to help you. Infact is may actually harm your body because these medicines are tough on your vital organs.

If working out and dieting has not dropped the 10 pounds you are looking to lose, then maybe you are at your optimal weight and the only thing that will help you to lose weight at that point is to lower your calorie intake. You will then begin to lose more weight because your calorie loss to calorie intake will be out of balance and you cannot help but to lose weight.

Before you take any of those supplements, you need to go to your doc and get a physical done to make sure you do not have any undiagnosed heart problems because these meds can and probably will kill you if you have any kind of a health issue.

Just my opinion, and I am not a dr but diet pills are not always the best way to go, especially just wanting to lose just 10 pounds. If you are eating right, that is great, I myself am a sweet eater and have found out that I can still eat them only just a small piece of cake or pie, just to settle the taste buds. Working out is great but it can also adds muscle which is weight but it is still good to work out. I have pretty much always had a weight problem and have always been a meat potatoes and sweet eater, my dr finally told me what to do and that is to drink lots of water as it fills you up, I used to never be a good water drinker, but now I love it and it has helped. I have always found that the 1st 5-10 pounds are easy to take off and after that, it gets rough, then I stop dieting and back comes the pounds plus.
Good luck!
Keep us posted.
