It looks like one of those too good to be true exercise machines that don't really get results... I'm just wondering if it actually makes any difference? I've seen the TV commercial and looked at the website... Just wondering if anyone has any personal experience?? Thanks in advance for your answers!
Answer:
I haven't personally used one, but my mother has been using the Red Exerciser for the past two weeks and she loves it. Its the first thing she does when she comes home from work. She has lost 2 and 1/2 inches in these two weeks and thats without watching what shes eating.
it is too good to be true, but I did try it and it is a waste of time
uy
hello. I do not know of this Red Exerciser, but I guess it had an impressive commercial somewhere to make you take notice. Commercials are great BUT you have to KNOW that no one else is in your bones except YOU. can/will you invest yourself to achieve your goal? good luck : }

Has anyone out there tried the new alli OTC drug?
I am aware of the lothesome side effects, but if one could follow the plan and stay away from the fats, etc. it seems like it would work. Is it an appetite depressant as well?
Answer:
No, it is not an appetite suppressant. All it does is keep your body from absorbing about 25% of the fat that you eat. If you also adopt a good diet and exercise routine, you will lose weight 25% faster than if you didn't use the product at all. So, if you would lose ten pounds in two months (for example) with your diet and exercise, you would lose 12.5 pounds with Alli.
no pills work just change your diet and exercise, the good old fashioned way, and you are in control.
No it is not an appitite suppressant. At work two people have started using it and like the results. After hearing that I did a search for Alli questions on here and read up more on personal answers regarding the good, the bad and the ugly of it. I suggest you do the same here. Just type Alli in the box that says search for questions and read what real live people have said about it.
...it makes you crap oil. I mean... just think about that.

Has anyone out there actually had success with the Charles Atlas program or dynamic tension exercise programs?
Answer:
You can actually make results by "dynamic tension". essentially you are contracting the muscles as hard as possible which does bring a huge amount of the fibers into action.Any bodybuilder will tell you that their condition improves after practising posing which is similiar.Personally, I can only work the peak in my biceps by isotension.
Charles Atlas is a fool . PERIOD!
Has anyone on here tried the lemonade diet?
How did you feel and how much weight did you lose?
Answer:
I would suggest a cleansing diet. I lost 12 pounds in 9 days and then 28 pounds in less than a month. I also lost a lot of inches too! I learned that cleansing will help the body get rid of impurities. Impurities come from a lot of things like fast food, pollution, food additives and preservatives and lots of other things. The impurities get stored in the fat in our body. To get rid of the fat, we have to get rid of the impurities by cleansing the body. This made sense to me and I decided to try a cleanse program and it worked. The weight came off fast and this kept me motivated to keep going, not like other diets where the weight loss it too slow. I did Jenny Craig, Weight Watcher and Medifast. If you want to learn more call the toll free number 1-877-587-4647 or check out the website. This was the first time I ever did a cleanse, it was easy and I feel better. Good luck whatever you decide to do! http://diet4cleansing.com
Don't diet, just eat healthy. Diet just don't work and aren't healthy at all
none of those kind of diets work, you just temporarily lost water weight or muscle and slow your metabolism.the only real secret to losing weight is to eat right and work out.
I have never tried the lemonade diet. But don't listen to people who have never been on a diet to give you advice.I have tried the low-carb diet with excercise and lost 10 pound in my first month.If the diet is healthy then why not try it,just don't go on anything that will make you starve your self.
You aren't trying to lose weight, are you?
Why???????
You tryin some crazy stuff.
Ma momma tried dat carrot diet.
Oooccchhh.Sorry.
hey there basketcase,
yes i know all about your ridiculousness.
only advice ive got: get over it.

Has anyone lost weight with ALLI diet pills (please read)?
If so how much in how much time? Any personal experience? I would like to hear your success stories. Thank you.
Answer:
My mother is on it. She HAS lost weight. In her case, you just have to be a little mindful of fatty foods...really greasy stuff can send you to the bathroom, but overall, it seems to be working. I had a baby 3 weeks ago, and she started using it a week before then...saw her for the first time yesterday actually and I could see the weight loss (could be water weight, not sure). She's in her mid fifties and walks daily. Good luck with your answers!
trimspa baby
I have never heard of them pills to be honest, but I will tell you a diet pill that will drop your weight and show it, and thats phentermine! Everyone I know that is taking it has lost over 20 pounds in 2 mths. It's really great, curves your appetite and gives you energy, u should definitely try it sometime, you wouldnt be dissappointed.
there is no diet pill that works, believe me. i have not heard a single success story from someone who took diet pills. they make you feel horrible and have hundreds of side affects including death! if you want to lose weight, the only way to do it is the old fashioned way - diet and exercise.
I did I lost 30 lbs in 2 months with diet pills, but then gained it all back when I stopped starving myself and popping the pills constatnlythough I found out that for me personally weight watchers was the best option, all of my family has gone on it and instead of starving we learned to eat healthy, fit in excersise time and have pleanty of fun doing ittogether we've lost almost 400 lbs between 6 adults in the last 2yrsI love being able to eat pleanty and have full meals rather than counting every cracker.. and living on water and air ;)p.s.diet pills are a great booster to get you started when you're just starting off since they do curve your appetite and give you the extra energy you dont havebut after you're set in your daily routine you dont need them anymore, since they can cause more harm than help in time
No luck with OTC crap, but my doctor put me on some stuff that I dropped 30 pounds in three months.
all diet pills do is burn the excess body fat in your body, you're given the illusion of losing weight and getting healthy but your body muscle remains the same. you may be skinnier but you're in just as poor health as you were when you began. most diet pill bottles say that best results come when you combine the diet pills, diet and excercise- my opinion, you're better off sticking just with the diet and excercise. an added bonus to diet pills, the minute you stop taking them the weight comes right back.

Has anyone lost this large amount of weight?
60 pounds in 3 months...so 20 pounds per month?
Answer:
I've done it twice in my life
Me! But that was only cause I was going to middle school then and I got so worried that there would be prettier girls than me =(. Lol, yea, I was a bit self-centered... But yea. And I exercised til the point I wanted to DIE! I never felt better 'bout myself tho =D.
What about you?
And outta curiousity, why'd you ask? =D Cheers!
it could be done but check with your doctor, so he can monitor your weight loss. blood check for anemia, people who lose lot of weight in a small amount of time can get sick. best thing is ask a doc

Has anyone lost 30 pounds in 3 months or less and how did you do it?
REAL answers only PLEASE
Don't BS me and tell me you ate right and exercised. Tell me exactly what you ate because obviously you did something very specific. Also, how much exercise, how intense, how often. How often did you eat, what did you restrict yourself to. What was your overall success--in 3 months and longer. Also what weight did you start at.
Answer:
I lost 20 pounds in about 14 weeks.
Diet
-2 glasses of water on empty stomach
-breakfast 1 boiled egg with 1 low carb bread toast, with a little margarine, sometimes half an english muffin(whole grain), egg was always the constant, on week ends made my self an omelette(onions, tamatoes), without the toast. Probably two or three times in the total 3 months I ate a bran cereal, with very high fiber.
-Lunch Mostly salad with a protien, like chicken or fish
Sometimes I ate hummus, with low carb pita bread and a protien. or low spinach dip with low carb pita
-snack nuts like cashews or almonds, or a low carb yoghurt, and very somtimes an apple
-dinner whole grain bread, or low carb pita bread or roti with a protien curry or baked protien and some cheese
Generally I followed a very low carb routine, I rarely ate white rice or desert, or any sugar for 4 months.
Work out
3-5 miles daily on the treadmill for 6 days
2 times a week stretch yoga
2 times a week weight training
I was very consistent with the cardio workout, I skipped yoga somtimes, but never the cardio.
The low carb diet was very difficuly in the beginning, you will crave carbs like crazy, but do not give up in the first week, that is the hardest. Keep up the cardio, and GOOD LUCK with your diet.
NOTE:always keep a protien bar handy, when you are out of the house, if you are hungry outside you will tend to cheat on the low carb diet, keeping a protien bar with you will help you stay on diet.
This may not help but what I do to keep in shape is...
Run 6 miles everyday
Drink alot of water
Do about 2 hours of other excercize everyday*If you stay away from the kitchen, TV, and computer and go outside, it is pretty easy*
Well I hate to tell you this but I lost 25 pounds in 3 months by eating right and working out on a daily basis. I cut out all the carbs in my diet. No breads, rice, pasta or anything like that. I eat lots of fruits and veggies now. I am not saying this works for everyone but it does work for me. Also, you need to work out at least 5 days a week. Do lots of cardio. I am telling you, You will see a difference. I run 4 miles a day everyday and I spend 40 minutes weight training. Its working for me so far. I feel really good these days! I started at 210 pounds and I now weigh 185.
I started at 207 and am now at 170. I'm doing a modified South Beach diet. This took me 9 weeks.
You have two meal substitutes a day---A South Beach diet frozen dinner or a Lean Cuisine spa dinner (with whole wheat pasta or whole grain rice) they are in the light blue edged box. You can add a piece of fruit or a cup of non-starch veggies to thees. A sensible dinner of 6oz of lean beef, pork, chicken, turkey or fish, ( nothing fried) a half cup of whole wheat pasta or brown rice and two cups of non-starchy veggies. you can substitute a half of a baked sweet potato for the pasta or rice.
Also, three snacks a day. Two low fat cheese sticks, one fat-free sugar free yogurt or a pack of South beach whole wheat crackers or cookies.
You can also have a South Beach meal replacement bar instead of a frozen dinner if you want. I find thees helpful when I'm on the go.
Good luck!
OK. Many of my friends make fun of me for this. But you know those Richard Simmons exercise tapes. They work. I mean they really work.Sweatin' to the oldies and Disco sweat are my favorites. They are about an hour long. I do that at least 3 times a week. It is a stretch, exercise, cool down. Some of them have sit ups etc. The other thing is that i now have a real demanding job, climbing ladders, lifting heavy boxes, just moving around, so i have a little more workout to do almost everyday. As for my diet. I am doing something simple. I eat breakfast so i have energy. If you want starch, like spaghetti this is the meal to eat it at. For lunch i eat meat (hamburger, chicken, ham) whatever is available. along with a veggie medley. And for dinner i have my salad diet. Basically, some ice berg lettuce with 2 roma tomatoes, 2 carrots, peeled and coined, some onions, diced, 3-4 radishes sliced. And the wish bone spritzer things for the dressing. I love the Italian. And since this gets boring after a while, i go to the grocery store when i am hungry and whatever appeals to me in the veggies, i put it on the salad. Otherwise, i try some of Rachael Ray's salad recipes. So far in the last 3 and a half months, i have lost 23 lbs as of today. I don't want to tell you my weight sorry. Well i hope this helps. Good luck!
Hi , I want to ask you one question, that is are you getting balance nutrition. Answer is No, that's the reason you are overweight. Our Indian diets are with high fat, calories, sugar, salt and less of protein and fiber. That's the same thing with you. Nutrition play a very important role in weight management.
