"i started this pill 2/15/11. i told myself if i was going to pay for this pill every month i was going to do everything i needed to do to help this pill work! only water to drink, lean meats, fruits all colors, veggies all colors, fiber, fat free or light dairy-1200 cal diet with 20 min of elliptical the 1st month 6 days a week. the 2nd month 25 min-and the 3rd month 30 min 5 days a week. i agree with everyone to give yourself a off day to rest, eat something you feel a little guilty about then get right back on the next meal. give yourself goals and rewards and good luck.
