Hi Kelly T,
I’ve been reading your blog for quite awhile now. I admire your story because I have dealt with similar issues of binging and purging. I have gained enough strength over the past 2 years to overcome the battle. In 2009 I have wanted to try and lose weight. I didn’t want to try any crazy diets or anything extreme because I didnt want to fall into that awful trap again. I’ve been eating healthy and exercising but have not seen any results at all. I’ve even been to doctors and nutritionists but they don’t even know/understand why nothing is working.
I am now losing hope. I was going to consider hydroxycut.. is that way crazy? #1 – is it even safe? #2 – does it work #3 – should i just totally drop this out of my mind or consider it? bc really NOTHING IS WORKING!
advice please!
Dear reader,
I think it’s perfectly fine to use diet pills.
How weird would it be if I said that? You guys would so have a heart attack, lol.
Ack, it scares me when people ask questions like this. With all the information out there, it seems like this would be common sense, but apparently, not so.
I can’t tell you why your weight loss efforts aren’t working, especially if your doctor and nutritionist cant figure it out, because they are professionals in the field, and i just know how to make people throw up in the gym, but based on my past your metabolism might be screwed up from your past.
What I can comment on is what a horrible and dangerous idea taking diet pills are.
If you google Hydroxycut, you can find all the side effects, including, but not limited to:
The only thing I can say, is ask your doctor if its a good idea. I’ll bet you a million dollars he’d tell you without a doubt, no. Aside from it being dangerous, there is not evidence that it’s effective.
Think about it: if there was a weight loss aide that actually worked, don’t you think it would be all over the news, and be perscribed by doctors for those in immediate danger of weight related diseases, instead of in the back of magazines or on infomercials at 3:00 am?
