has anyone tried slim bomb weight loss pills?

November 4th, 2008

i have just sarted taking some weight loss pills called slim bomb. they were quite pricey and been on tehm for a week and nothing has happened. the suppress my appetite a bit but im constantly having hunger pangs. teh reviews i read reported people losing 6 pounds in the first week etc. im starting to think this was a waste of money. does anyone know any better dlimming pills ? or should i stick at it?

Sucker!! The diet industry makes millions from people's impatience.

The time its taken you to pile it on is roughly the time it'll take you to work it back off! There are only two ways of shedding excessive body fat. One is by consuming fewer calories (i.e. eat less, and/or eat healthier). The other is by burning more calories (i.e. by being more active and exercising). Either way you have to generate a calorie deficit.

Ignore everyone who wants to make you believe that stuff like Reductil or Hoodia works. Its a waste of money. There is no research supporting their clinical effectiveness whatsoever. With Reductil there have even been casualties and its under investigation. You can drink green tea til you're green in the face it'll make sod all difference! "Slim Bomb"… LOL… with a name like that did you really expect it to work??? Its a basic thermogenic… will do sod all for you unless you're a body builder or elite athlete with only the last percent of body fat to shift to get ripped. Doubt that's the case with you. You may lose a couple of pounds of fluids but no significant fat loss. Your "reviews" of losing 6 pounds per week, who wrote those? The manufacturers??? They make ridiculous claims. £40 for 160 pills… oh dear oh dear…

Stay clear of pills and fad diets… Cabbage diet, egg diet, south beach diet, Atkins diet, low carbs, high protein, low cal bla bla bla… A HEALTHY BALANCED diet consists of lean protein such as fish or chicken breast, lots of fruit and vegetables; starchy foods such as wholegrain bread, brown pasta and brown rice; some nuts and seeds and is low in fat (especially saturated fat), salt and sugar. Cut out processed foods such as white bread. No pizza, microwaveable meals, burgers etc.

Have 3 proper meals and two snacks (one mid morning, one afternoon). Chew properly. Never skip breakfast. Try not to eat after 7pm.

There are 3500 calories per pound of body fat. So if you have a calorie deficit of 500 calories you would lose approximately one pound per week: (500 x 7 = 3,500) A calorie deficit of 1000 calories would therefore mean that you'd lose approximately two pounds per week (1000 x 7 = 7000). Two pounds a week is commonly accepted as the maximum rate of weight loss that is healthy.

Find a sport or an exercise you enjoy. Start off with exercising 3x a week. Do a mix of aerobic and anaerobic cardiovascular exercises (running, cycling, rowing, boxing, cross trainer…). Aerobic you do for 30+mins at a manageable speed where you should be able to talk. This builds endurance. Anearobic you do speed intervals where you go flat out and then have recovery breaks where you let your heartrate come back down and go again. That builds stamina. You can do this while running, cross trainer, rowing, cycling. Both aerobic and anaerobic cardio burns fat, just in different ways. You'll also develop your slow twitch as well as you fast twitch muscle fibres that way.

Think about it. Running burns 100 calories PER MILE!! If you run only 3 miles at a comfortable pace of a 10-minute/mile that's 300 calories gone just like that. Do that 3 times a week and you've already generated a calorie deficit of 900 calories by running alone.

Also do weight bearing exercises, either resistance machines or free weights. Lean muscle mass is the best fat burner we have. Once you build muscle it wants to live and it'll increase your basal metabolic rate even when resting.

When you change your lifestyle and "healthy" becomes a habit, you won't just be one of the January New Years Resolution statistics who lost a couple of pounds quickly and put on 5 pounds by Valentines day.

    hoodia is the best they say….try something that will work for you or get your doctor to prescribe a good working one for you…
    or go to gnc and ask for the best seller and working one.

    Slimming pills are not good for your health. Even the ones that claim to have all 'natural' ingredients. Most of these types claim to use thermogenics and contain ephedra (which can come in the form of sida cordifolia or ma huang or be labelled sida herbacea) and caffeine (although usually as guarana). Taking these two together is the same as taking amphetamines because it increases your blood pressure and heart rate. If you are already overweight then you may have high blood pressure to start with and taking these could cause you kidney damage, stroke, palpitations or otherwise.

    Even if these two aren't ingredients, there are many other 'natural' ingredients that are just as dangerous such as bitter orange, white willow, etc. Remember mother nature produces coca plants where cocaine comes from - and that's not good for you even if it is naturally occurring!

    Most Hoodia products have been uncovered as a complete con - because they rarely contain enough hoodia to do any good and tend to just give you diarrhoea to make you lose weight meaning not only will you be slim but malnourished and liable for a heart attack in the same way anorexics can be.

    Go the good old fashioned route and spend that money on joining the gym and eating the right foods. Weightwatchers is really good if you struggle on your own and you can now do it online. At least by doing it this way you'll be benefiting your health, well-being, and extending your life as well as looking good.

    I know you must be v keen to lose weight, but please ditch the diet pills. At best theyre a pricey con, at worst they could be dangerous. It might take some time, but regular exercise and healthy eating is the way to go.

    Your best bet is to buy online. Because a lot of the effective slimming pills contain ingredients that are not allowed to be sold on the shelves in the UK (or USA if that's where you are), you can buy them from countries where they are legally sold (Mexico for example).

    You have to weigh up the pros and cons. The pros are that you get to lose weight with a pill, however the price for overseas meds is huge. Oh and then there's the reason why they're banned over here…

    Most diet pills will only work if you watch your diet and exercise, in other words, there aren't any "magic pills" that can do the work for you.

    You'd be better off spending the money on a good pair of running shoes and using them instead.

    My advice? Save your money and get to work!
