Just want to know whether or not it will be SAFE and I will not die. I know about all the side effects, I don't want a lecture, I exercise and eat healthy.

What are the other pills for fat burning?

I am 18, 5'6" and weigh between 133 and 138 pounds. I want to lose 10-18lbs as soon as possible, I already eat pretty well and exercise lightly (cross training, sit ups, squats, small weights) so I need something to shift the last stone or so. Would using Xenical be a suitable way to lose this weight and how does it work?

Hello! I'm a 16 year old girl, first year college. I'm VERY heavy, I'm desperate to lose weight. I think my current weight is 65-67kg. I know, I'm horribly overweight.

Do any of these slimming pills actually help you lose weight? Thanks x

She's obsessed with losing weight, and recently found out about some prescription pill which I believe is called 'Xenical' - I researched into it and found out that this is something given to obese people to help them lose weight, and stops around a third of the fat eaten daily from being absorbed. She is NOT obese - maybe 5 pounds overweight. She's determined to get hold of this drug and use it, I'm worried - what would happen if she did? She is over 18 if that makes a difference. Mickey: Th

I am about to talk to my physician this week. I am 17, six-foot four inches tall, and not quite 290 pounds. Last year, he recommended that I see a dietitian but I never got around to it. I expect he will give me the same recommendation now. I understand that my diet is horrible (I skip breakfast, scarf down a minimal lunch, and then eat two large dinners after school, lots of pop and no vegetables) and I am trying to change this. I also know (generally) what I should be eating. Will another

So over the past 2 years I was gaining weight like never before... like 7lbs a week, in total about 45+ lbs.

So 3 weeks ago I started taking 2000mg of metformin and 1200mg of kelp daily and femergy(some type of multivitamin for women) and xenical 1000mg daily. So today I am surprised, I had my first period in months, I

I am only small framed with a height of 156cm and have always been pretty light as I have just said. My typical day consists of: Hal
