First, the proper subject for your question would be something like 'Faster weight loss with a diet pill'. This helps those who might know something about that to know to answer you question. Second, That could depend on how the diet pill that you're talking about works. Some work by attempting to block fat/sugar/whatever from being absorbed into your system. These do nothing if you aren't eating anything. Others can increase the rate that you burn fat. These could work without eating but probably not if you plan to starve your self. Crash dieting never works. If you stop eating your body slows down the rate at which you burn fat. There is nothing you can do about this, it's a survival mechanism to extend your life until you can get some food. How to lose weight: eat an senseable, balanced diet, get some exercise. |

Not only will you most likely not lose weight faster, due to your body going into "starvation mode", you will almost certainly cause more health problems. Many fad diet pills contain ingredients such as excessive amounts of caffiene that can cause high blood pressure, headaches, nervousness, irritability, and a myriad of other ailments that will make it much more difficult to lose weight. It's very depressing to be overweight, and the temptation to look for a "quick fix" is strong, and has been exploited by pill and supplement makers for some time. Anotherbrian is correct when he says that a sensible balanced diet and excercise is the solution. My advice? Lose the pills. Some supplements can be very helpful, and a nutritionist can help you with that, but "diet pills" often cause more problems than they solve. Beware of pills containing caffiene, or anything that promises to "boost your metabolism" or give you more energy. Cut your meal portions, plan your meal to be 2/3 vegetables and 1/3 protein, take a walk outside for 30 minutes daily, and enjoy losing weight the way your body is accustomed to. Why torture yourself by starving daily when you can enjoy eating a little smarter? Good luck. |
