    Well, there are other methods of speeding up metabolism than doesnt involve physical exercise! Going to the sauna, drinking water and eating more protein foods can all boost metabolism rates. True, not to the extent of strenuous regular exercise but these methods do have an effect. Controlling your appetite by eating a regular breakfast of high fibre cereal with fruit is also possible. Website aside, do you think it could be possible than mankind could ever invent such a thing that compresses all these effect in an 'all in one' item? I do.

    I was attracted by the free trial offer to be honest ;) But you should always be open minded about everything in life! It wasnt that long ago, that people used to think the earth was flat. I might just give it a go and report back with the results!
    I take it you didnt study the laws of conservation of enegy at school

    It will definitely work if the suggested placement site means one's lips are stuck together

    Ive just searched it on wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_of_energy Call me stupid, but I found the whole page quite challenging to understand. Not sure what school you went to that taught you this subject, but I'm assuming you must be a very brainy professor type person.;)

    The only way to increase metabolism is to burn calories and that is done by exercise . It is simple physics. burn more than you put in get lighter. If you dont exercise any extra burning will mean you run a fever.
    It is nothing like a nicotine patch which as Jojo says has very little success anyway.

    Interesting article here about exercise and weight loss but I agree about the patches being a con

    Oops, I was toying with putting either mouth or lips, thought mouth sounded too direct, so trust me to choose the option with innuendo. :D

  • Doesn't matter, either way wouldn't stop sex...
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.
