"i have been overweight my whole life and never before have i been able to lose very much weight at all. i have never broken down and wanted to go on a diet pill, mainly for the sole reason that i am scared of medicines. i started taking it 12-1-11 with a starting weight of 283 pounds. as of today 1-17-12 i am down to 239. that is a total weight loss of 44 pounds in not even 2 months. now many people on here say it is a magic pill, and they do anything different other than taking the pill. i do not agree with doing this. i took it to the max, i quit all pops and only drink water, and eat really healthy without starving myself. also i am 19 yrs old and male."
