Answer 1

Go to:

http://www.elementemporium.com/order_books.html

and order the book, The False Fat Diet.

The MD who wrote it is head of The Preventive Medical Center in San Rafael, Calif. He did a blood test for me to pinpoint foods that I am reactive to. In the book he tells how you can do that by the process of elimination. I have dropped 44 lbs. since last April. I will never eat dairy again and a few other foods. But I'm happy to be eating healthfully and I can live without those foods.

Billy, what you should do is see your family doctor BEFORE going on this diet to lose weight. The reason is because you are not simply overweight, you are Morbidly Obese! And you want to make sure that before you engage an anything like a diet and exercise, that it won't affect your health. And don't expect to lose weight FAST, after all you didn't put it on FAST! What you want to do is start buying foods that are little or no fat, so to answer your question, slim milk would probably be best. You won't find an EASY fix to lose weight, so don't even look at diet pills or diet drinks, etc. It takes HARD work. First off, cut down the size of your food proportions, whatever you normally consume in a meal, eat 1/3 less that amount at every serving. You'll still feel hungry, but only until your stomach starts to shrink, then'll you'll feel OK. And you cannot diet and expect to lose weight without exercise. The simplest and easiest form of exercise is WALKING< simply walk a block, and increase the amount as tolerated each day. Try to walk about 20 to 30 minutes daily, at least that is your goal. You'll notice as you exercise more and eat less, the pounds will come off! Slowly at first, but it will be noticable. Maybe 2lbs a week is your goal. Any weight loss over that amount is unhealthy for you and it won't last, in other words if you lose the weight too fast, you'll simply gain it back just as fast. What you are aiming for is Life changes, that you will learn a healthier way of living. Best of luck!

Diet pills can cause other health problems so talk to your doctor first. Most important is what you put into your mouth, though. One of the best things you can do is drink 5 to 8 glasses of water each day. And that does NOT include flavored water or soda. Just plain old water. Avoid eating fried foods. Stick with baked or grilled instead. Eat lots of fresh fruit and veggies and take a good multivitamin. DON'T skip a single meal, especially breakfast. Try and have protein, carbohydrates and a bit of fruit or veggies at every meal. Getting the right amount of nutrients will help your body deal with fats and sugars more efficiently. Avoid anything with high fructose corn syrup as it blocks signals that tell you mind when your stomach is full. Don't eat junk food or large quantities right before bed since you won't have a chance to process your food well when you're asleep. A glass of milk or a banana are light enough and can help you sleep better. Exercise can help a lot if you take it at a pace that is enjoyable and comfortable for you. It's better to do a little every day than do too much and give up. Your friends can be supportive, too. Think of physical activities that you can do together and you won't feel so resistant to it. One last thing, stress can really hinder your weight management, so smile even when you don't feel like it, watch funny movies, schedule your school and chores so you have time for you as well, and do random acts of kindness. Always speak kindly to yourself and about yourself. You are your own best cheerleader. Good luck honey!

Ok notice how EVERYONE is saying that diet pills are bad? They are, so please dont use them. My advice is to adopt a healthier lifestyle. Go on walks in the evening or join a gym. Stay away from regular soda. A helpful way to control portions is to leave half or 1/4 of your meal on your plate. If your parents are the "eat all your food" type, then dont serve as much food during meals. Also skipping breakfast only makes you eat more later in the day.

The food that most schools serve is really bad for you as well. If your school serves mini pizza's for lunch, that about 1000 calories and about half of your daily calorie needs. There are tons and tons of websites online that list the calories in common foods. You may want to check that out so you can make more informed decisions on eating.

Remember- you will only lose weight when your body burns more calories than you eat.

Good luck.

Answer 5

At your age diet pills are too dangerous unless a doctor prescribes them and then monitors you closely. Stop taking them.
Go to a doctor and get a diet, then do exercises for half an hour at least three or four days a week. Weight loss will be slow but, then, you didn't put in on all at once either did you?

Answer 6

What are you thinking?! Put down the diet pills right now! Diet pills will speed up your heart and raise your body temperature, and possibly give you a heart attack or stroke. The best way to lose weight is to eat right and stay active. Try to eat within 3 hours of waking up, every three hours after the first meal, and stop eating three hours before you go to sleep. Choose foods that are high in calcium, fiber, and protein. Make sure that you stay away from foods that are high in saturated and trans saturated fats - they are bad for your heart. Also, stay away from sugar, especially High Fructose Corn Syrup. Don't forget exercise. Try to get one hour of moderate exercise everyday. Remember, Put down the diet and start losing weight the right way. GOOD LUCK!!!

Answer 7

Weight loss pills are widely advertised as a quick method to lose weight. These are food supplements and are not regulated by the FDA or any authority. They have severe side effects. Some weight loss pills may help you lose weight for a short time, but after a month or so, the body becomes immune to them. I found information on weight loss pills and their side effects at http://www.toloseweight.org/weightlosspill.html

Answer 8

Diet pills are a scam. Meet with your Doctor and come up with a plan. With a change in lifestyle and eating habits that work for YOU, the pounds can go away. You have a lot of life ahead of you. Let people accept and love you for what you are for now. Get more physically active, eat right and you CAN DO IT!

Good luck!

Answer 9

Diet pills might take away your appetite for awhile, but what about when you stop taking them? You can't take them forever.

If you follow a plan like the Kimkins diet your appetite naturally goes away quite a bit because of ketosis.

Maybe talk to your parents? I'll be they won't want you taking pills. I know it's hard being overweight. Pick a diet and find friends to support you!

Answer 10

If diet pills really worked I would be out of a job.
In the long run they're not going to help you.
We need to work on a healthy diet. If your diabetic, or high blood pressure (if so please, leave the pills alone).
If you truly want help, e-mail me your details of what you do as far as eating and workout habits. I will help you, no charge I swear. I want people to succeed and be healthy, or I wouldn't do what I do. I swear you can lose the weight, but its hard work, you can do it
