  • Hello - my user CP so has not been telling me there has been posts!! Well it did today but not yesterday!
    Still maintaining here so booo. However i did something i never thought i would do - i ordered a slimming pill :o somebody on another forum mentioned how they had used them in the past and lost 1st in a month but after that they just stopped working, however she said a few of her friends had the same kind of results, so i figure, id be happy with a 1/2 stone in a month never mind a whole one! So its worth a shot. Not been eating too badly, however not had the motivation to exercise as much as I should be! grrr bad Emmy.

    Well done on all the losers, naughty naughty to all u eating the bad stuff lol - stay away!!! (although I know its hard with it coming up to Christmas! doh!)
  • hey all,

    How do those pills work lil miss?

    I know about quite a lot of them but they seem to be realted to speed or something??

    I know that quite a few people have tried the pink patch and not had any results.

    Will be interested to see how you get on :)

    Watch out with the pills folks,

    I think that there might be speed in them right enough as I know someone who was taking them. She was up at 4 in the morning cleaning her windows and stuff, so I think it's safe to say that there were 'substances' in them!!
  • the ingredients list when I googled it was plant extracts and herbs on a Chinese medicine site. They where for sale on amazon so I can't see amazon selling speed? :o or I would hope not!

    Apparently they just help your body burn fat quicker and suppress you appetite. Will see how they go. If they interrupt my sleep i shall be stopping! As my sleep is bad enough on its own!

    You can only try and see what they are like Emmy,

    The ones I am referring to were being sold by a 'doctor' in Glasgow, and I think there was always a queue of people to try them.:eek:

    The best method of losing weight is changing your eating habits as we all know, the pills might work for a wee while, but you will go back to normal when you stop taking them.

    I hope you won't be up doing the windows in the night!!:D Let us know how you get on with them.
  • oh yes, do be careful, but I am curious about them, are they expensive?

  • Hey All,

    Lilmiss, i guess you can only research as much as you can and then try them, good luck, i hope they work for you!!!

    I have a challenge for everyone (i did threaten to come and challenge you all lol) today i am having one of those days where you look in the mirror and can only see the bits you hate.

    Now i really hate my nose, if i ever won the lottery i would get it changed (and made a lot smaller) - it really gets me down to look at my nose cause then i start thinking about all the other vile bits of my body.

    BUT i love my eyes, and as my eyes and nose are next to each other i have decided that my eyes soften my nose and dont make it that bad (this is only of about an hour ago thou lol)

    Therefore, i challenge you ALL to go look in the mirror at your worse bit and then find the best bit and see how your best and worse bits compliment each other making all of us into beautiful packages.

    You dont have to share, just thought a change of tack might help us all :)

  • That's a lovely idea Puzzled! I had a very disturbing thought this morning , I was gettign dressed and caught sight of myself in the mirror and thought, 'hmm I'm not as fat as I thought'. I'm now feeling happier today, it prob won't last long and I'll be back to feeling like a heffalump tomoro! lol!
  • Well done WTBAS!! Your flying!!

    CC - glad u had a nice surprise looking in the mirror :) and i bet you don't look like a heffalump! and no the tablets where not pricey at all actually £4.35 for the tablets and a stupid £4.50 postage... saying that they did arrive today as they had been sent special delivery which cost them £5.05 so i got off lightly.

    Lynne - i know its best to change diet, which in all fairness I have, i just am sick of being on a "maintain" as its been about 5 weeks again, i often drop a little and then maintain which is so frustrating. So my diet can't be that bad if its maintaining so consistently :) I just want something in the short term to get me back on track for a loss, I know it isn't a long term option. I'm not even 100% sure it will work for me even though it has others, but I figure its worth a shot this once :) AND if it does work, then at least I know my current diet will have me maintain the loss rather than piling it back on again :)

    Puzzled - i hate my saggy stretch mark covered post baby bits, so belly, boobies, thighs and my bingo wings (which ok have no stretch marks i dont think but i do hate them lol). I do however think that my tummy (if u can call it that) under my boobies looks a bit better than it did before the current weight loss, in all honesty though thats about it. I used to like my eyes but now i swear I look like im wearing purple eye-liner constantly as there is a shadow under my lower lid grrr
