I was just wondering if anyone has used those Hoodia Diet Pills? According to 60 minutes and other tv reviews they do. I have also heard a lot of other things do to. But I have never had any luck with them. I'm just looking for something to give me an extra boost.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Just wanted to let everyone know I have lost 7lbs and 1 1/2 inches off my waist.So with watching what I eat I guess they work. It curves the cravings. When I get over being sick I'll add exercise and hopefully see better results.

Hi. They worked for me for about 3 weeks, then once my system was used to them the effects faded, just as the guy at the vitamin shoppe said they would. I like Redline. The key is to use for a few days, take a break, and go back. I found this is a little more effective.

I hate to burst everyone's bubble, but there is no way to actually put Hoodia in a capsule. When I first heard about Hoodia- a plant native to Africa that is eaten on hunting trips in order to suppress the tribe members' appetites- I did a ton of research on it. However, I found out that it loses its effectiveness when trying to capture it in a capsule. So, anything that claims to be the real thing is NOT. There is a race between leading manufacturers, like Johnson and Johnson, to be the first to actually be able to capture the active ingredients from the hoodia plant. Until then, the only way to reap the benefits from hoodia is to actually go to Africa and eat the plant.

I've never tried Hoodia, but I have tried a diet pill you can buy it at Wal-Mart it's something for mother's after having babies. I don't remember the name but I know it was specificly for mothers who have had children. It seemed to curve the appetite I don't know so much about the energy. With me I'm always busy with and 8 month old and a 3 year old. Plus school, so I dont know about the energy but it did work. Hope this helps

Theres also a new gym thats opening up next month I think, it's called Butterfly Life. They have several helpful tips, you can get a week free to try it out. The owner is awesome.

Essentially, the best and only way to lose weight and maintain your health is to diet and exercise. I know, to bad words! I hate exercising, but I recently purchased an inexpensive exercise ball and I've had a lot of fun with it. I feel better already and have dropped weight in the small amount of time I've had it!

I am taking a great one with Hoodia in it called Ultra Skinny mini. It is loaded with vitamins and really works.
I found it at Supersuppliments for 32.00. they always run coupon ads for 5-10$ off.

good luck. Remember Hoodia is JUST for hunger control. It does not burn and it does not rev up the metabolism. Basically it's for people who snack too much on the wrong things.
Speaking of that. I LOVE this fat binder called Fat magnet. From Natural balance. It is GREAT if you know you are going out and HAVE to eat something you should not eat. look for that too.

I agree with Yvonne, diet pills aren't good for your body. I gained a lot of weight with my first son, and wasn't able to lose hardly any of it. After the second boy and constantly being on the move with them I didn't have any energy.

I was introduced to a company called Usana and did a lot of research on vitamins and why it is so important to add them to your diet. I started taking the Essentials from Usana and I was shocked at how much energy I had within the first few weeks. now my whole family is taking them and I have lost 20 lbs and 3 pants sizes.

I don't mean to sound like an ad. I just never thought that taking vitamins would have such a huge impact on my life. I am also more aware of things I put into my body and I exercise at least 3 times a week.

My goal this year is to lose 30 more pounds. Usana has a weight lose program called reset. It isn't about counting calories, but rather what types of food you're eating. It focuses on the glycemic index. I'm pretty confident that those 30 pounds will be gone by the end of the year!

it's ok not to be super skinny, as long as your healthy!

Best wishes to you!

Hi A.,

Most of what you are seeing on TV are just another company trying to make a quick buck on the trends out there. A lot of what you are going though could be that you are not getting the right nutrition on a daily basis. I am a nutritionist and I would be happy to do a free evaluation. This way you can see what areas, if any, need a little tweaking.

You should try AloeComplete.com there is a few different types of all natural aloe energy drink. Our drinks are very popular with the fitness world, as well as those suffering from Cancer or Aids/HIV ... the ingrediants within the drink help boost your energy, blood cells, and overall health. They come in some yummy flavors too. Since your in Oceanside too, like i am, you dont have to buy through the website if you dont want and come directly to my home to get them if you like. Avoid shipping cost.

Other than that, i used to dring the Green Machine when i worked at the YMCA years ago... it doesnt tasts as great, but it gives you the kick you need/want. Not all natural (meaning no chemicals) like aloe complete, but it is better than some of the other dima a dozen stuff out there these days.

We also have a myspace page

here are the top 10 reasons why people should have a aloe drink instead of energy drinks

TOP 10 REASONS TO DRINK ALOE VERA GEL

Source: Forever International, Issue 59, February 2006, page 5 (reprinted with author's permission)

10. Dental Health and Hygiene

Aloe Vera is extremely healthful for your mouth and gums. Take that to your next dentist appointment!

Provides Rapid Soothing
Aloe Vera enhances fibroblast function. Fibroblast are those remarkable little cells responsible for collagen formation. They also assist in the soothing of minor burns, cuts, scrapes and skin irritations.

Aids in Healthy Digestion
A healthy digestive tract ensures that nutrients from the foods we eat are absorbed into the blood stream. Aloe Vera has natural, detoxifying abilities. Drinking Aloe Vera Gel regularly may improve bowel regularity and increase protein absorption, while at the same time decrease unfriendly bacteria and yeast – all done naturally! Aloe Vera has also demonstrated its ability to assist in soothing heartburn and other types of digestive upset.

Immune Support and Function
Aloe Vera provides natural support for the immune system. Since the immune system works around the clock protecting the body, aloe vera, with its natural immune enhancers, gives the body a continual arsenal from which to draw. Drinking 2 to 4 ounces of Aloe Vera Gel regularly may give your immune system the helping hand it needs

Regulates Weight and Energy Levels
Aloe Vera Gel naturally, and with regular use, allows the body to cleanse the digestive system. Our diets include many unwanted substances which can cause lethargy and exhaustion. Taken regularly, Aloe Vera Gel ensures a greater feeling of well-being, allowing energy levels to increase and helping to maintain a healthy body weight.

Collagen and Elastin Repair
Aloe Vera can add a rich supply of building materials to produce and maintain healthy skin. The skin replenishes itself every 21 to 28 days. Using the nutritional building blocks of aloe vera, the skin can utilize these nutrients daily to help combat the effects of aging! A daily dose of Aloe Vera Gel can be just what your skin is thirsting for.

Daily Dose of Minerals
Some of the minerals found in aloe vera include calcium, sodium, iron, potassium, chromium, magnesium, manganese, copper, and zinc. What a powerful storehouse! We all know that adding foods to our diets with naturally occurring vitamins and minerals is recommended for overall health. Drinking Aloe Vera Gel is a natural and healthful way to replenish the body’s supply.

Daily Dose of Vitamins
Aloe Vera Gel includes Vitamins A, B1, B2, B6, B12, C and E, Folic Acid and Niacin. The human body simply cannot store some of these vitamins; therefore we need to supplement them regularly through our diets. What better way than by drinking a daily dose of Aloe Vera Gel, while at the same time building the body’s defense system naturally against oxidative stress!

2. Anti-inflammatory Properties

Aloe Vera Gel has 12 natural substances that have been shown to inhibit inflammation without side effects. Aloe may also support proper joint and muscle mobility.

1. Body-Building Blocks

Amino acids are our body’s building blocks. Eight which are essential and cannot be made by the body are found within the aloe plant! Drinking Aloe Vera on a regular basis allows you to help maintain your health by replenishing your body naturally with these essential amino acids. An analysis of the aloe vera plant shows that it comes closer than any other known plant to the duplication of essential amino acids. Just think – all this, and in just 2 to 4 ounces a day.

Hope this helps?
