I keep on reading these advertisements that say,
"Lose 30 pounds in 30 days" or "Lose 21 pounds a month" but I am interested in them but never follow up on them...
Some of these are outdoor advertisments tacked to telephone poles, newspaper advertisements, etc.
What do you think about advertisements like these?
Do you ever call the numbers advertised to see what they are trying to sell or to do with their clients?
Have any of these advertisements ever led you to something that worked for you?

These are not worth my time or money. The ones on the television in small letters to the bottom of the screen say that the results are not typical. I don't bother with these diet things. They are scams to get your money.

Thanks for sharing about the "results not typical" as there are some people who do not notice the small print.

Also it is better to lose slow and keep it off than lose fast and when you stop dieting to gain back the weight plus more than you lost.

It would be nice if there was a button that one could push and say presto, chango, Reduceo and achieve the desired weight with no effort...
I have seen some people lose a lot using supplements and then when they could not afford to take the supplements or just decided not to take them any more, they gained a whole lot of weight and were bigger than they were before they had the supplements...
It would be so neat if we could lose weight and keep it off without any effort at all and still be in wonderful health.

Have you ever heard of NutriSystem before? This service will offer you great food that actually helps you to lose weight and curb cravings. Well, just please check with your doctor first before moving on to plan special diets as well as exercise. The website is: www.nutrisystem.com. . What do you think?


myLot reputation of 95/100. whiteheron (922)   ranked 2 out of 165 in lose weight  4 months ago

Hi Plum Wish,
Thanks for sharing... that is what I thought... consumption of a product doesn't work as well unless there is exercise too.

Well, if you come across advertisements about quick weight loss. Be absolutely careful. Just please check with your doctor first. Have you ever heard of NutriSystem, yet. That company has lots of great food that will actually help you to lose weight and curb hunger. The website for this is: www.nutrisystem.com. . Check with your physician before moving on. OK? How about SlimFast?


myLot reputation of 95/100. whiteheron (922)   ranked 2 out of 165 in lose weight  4 months ago

Thanks for sharing about Nutrisystems. I have heard that people lose weight when they are on it and gain it again if they for some reason cannot afford to continue purchasing it. I don't know about Slim Fast. I have been reluctant to try anything.
