Tip 36: Diet pills are a big no-no

Okay, we've all seen the advertisements. In magazines, on TV, on billboards.

Some take the approach of a medical doctor, using chart and "double blind" studies to sway you into thinking they're a safe (and sure) bet to lose your unwanted belly fat.

Others go the sex-sells route, and flash images of the perfect body - a tight toned stomach and stick thin arms and legs - and get you to imagine yourself looking like those models, and thinking that the only way you could ever look like that is to buy their product.

Still others are more sneaky, with eye-catching and interesting commercials that confuse you but make you remember their product.

The point is that the diet pills and drinks are a multi-billion dollar industry. We keep buying and buying their products.

But did you ever stop to think about it for a minute? If some company had actually found the magic pill for weight loss, all other companies would be out of business, everyone would be thin, and EVERYONE would know about it.

For those of you that have tried the pills, did they really work? I'm going to take a guess and say they didn't.

Tip 38: Diet pills are a big no-no


Click "read more" for more insight as to why these "quick fixes" are complete crap! 


Diet pills, powders, and drinks are a bad idea. I'm talking about everything from the HGC drops, Alli, and Zantrax-3, to Slimfast, Lipozene, and Hydroxycut. (These are just a few examples, and I feel the need to mention for legal safety that I do not have anything to do with these products and I do not own their names or rights, etc.)

The thinning results are NOT permanent, but it can cause permanent damage to your organs and your heart.

Many of them work by reducing your water weight, which can cause dehydration and other horrible problems. 

The second you stop taking the pills, all the weight come right back, and usually you end up weighing more than you did before! How frustrating!!

Save your money!!!

Changing your diet- even little changes like switching from white to wheat bread can make a huge difference. just watching what you eat can have a huge impact on your weight!

Better be safe than sorry, taking these shortcuts can be deadly, or at least make you gain more than you started with.
