Most of what I've read about Hoodia, says it keeps you from feeling hungry. I'm thinking, well that's not good- if I'm supposed to be eating 6 small meals a day, how can I do that If I'm not hungry? I thought NOT eating was the wrong way to lose weight?

Motheroftheyear (nice monicker by the way):
Despite the marketing hype and all the bogus advertising claims, all hoodia gordonii does is suppress appetite. It does not burn fat or magically melt the fat away. As you've stated, it just makes you feel full - assuming it works for you (not everyone responds to it).
You are totally correct about eating small meals throughout the day for effective and long-term weight loss. The reality is, if you are able to do this, you definitely don't need hoodia gordonii because you'll feel full to begin with eating 5-6 small meals throughout the day.
While eating 5-6 small meals throughout the day is the most effective way to lose weight and keep it off, it is very challenging for most people because when they adopt this lifestyle they are always full so they find it hard to eat so many times to begin with! If you throw hoodia gordonii in the mix, then you'd really be challenged and you'd never want to eat!
If you have the discipline to eat 5-6 small meals per day then you don't need ANY diet pill - hoodia included. By eating several small meals throughout the day you'll keep your metabolism burning high and you'll probably never overeat because you'll feel pretty full throughout the day.
If you really want to get your metabolism cranking, then you should also exercise regularly - particularly strength training as muscles are fat burning machines!
Best of luck to you.

I tried 100% Hoodia and......
Hoodia has worked for me...and with no side effects.
Check with your doctor before starting any weight loss program.

**** VERY IMPORTANT NOT TO GET RIPPED OFF ---
#1. Be sure you are buying pure Hoodia...look for the import certificate on the website. No matter the price, if they do not display this, you really do NOT know what you are getting!
#2. Be sure it is 100% Hoodia & not mixed w/other herbs, etc.!!
#3. Keep in mind it stops your hunger pangs…you MUST remember to break your habit to always eat at certain times.
#4. Drink a full 8oz. glass of water with it!
Hoodia (HOOD-ee-uh) gordonii - A genus of 10 to 20 species from southwestern Africa.
Hoodia gordonii is the stoneage wonder plant found throughout the dry arid regions of the South western African continent now on the verge of making history in the fight against obesity. It is a genus belonging to the Asclepiadaceae family which consists of approximately 20 species. Used to stop hunger, quench thirst, and provide energy among other things since prehistoric times, Hoodia gordonii was first discovered by the San tribesmen and women to get through the most difficult of times.

Well... All we know for sure is that you can't mix prescription painkillers with it.
You end up in the Hard Rock Casino in Florida dead as a doornail!
I hear that if you do not drink enough water with it... It closes your throat like suffocation. Maybe thats why she died?
OOoOoh TrimSpa baby!
