Do you keep weight loss diet pills in your handbag? Do these weight loss pills possibly even have their own special pill box or “spot”? Mine do…well, they did for years, anyway. It was this awesome little pill box made by Lolly Lu. On the top it had the most hilarious (and appropriate) saying, “It’s such a beautiful day I think I’ll surprise everyone and skip my medication.” It always made me laugh because I (and my “people”) could definitely tell when I didn’t take a pill.
Taking weight loss diet pills (or as some will say, energy pills) can quickly start to feel like a prescription medication. You get so dependent upon them to get you up in the morning and sometimes even to keep going in the afternoon. They keep you moving from one thing to another and they keep you too busy (both mentally and physically) to sit still and eat much.
Weight loss diet pills can result in substantial weight loss; especially if they are taken as recommended. And that is the point for most people. They bought weight loss diet pills because they wanted to lose weight. But too often they end up continuing the pill use after the weight loss. They are using it for maintenance purposes or to help increase their energy levels on a long term basis. And this is how it gets a bit crazy.
Weight loss diet pills are problematic for the individual’s health. They have been accused of being unsafe for a long time. They are often accused of being the root cause of cardiac issues in users and they are nothing short of addictive.
For instance, remember when the HydroxyCut recall came out a few years back. There were a lot of people who continued using it anyway; right up until they couldn’t find it anymore. This was in direct opposition to the suggestions to stop taking it right away due to harmful effects. Why do you think people would do such a thing? In most instances it was because they were at least partly addicted to the pills.
Weight loss diet pills went mainstream years ago. They were an accepted weight loss method; possibly the most highly used weight loss method. This is not good and this line of thought is now becoming less and less popular. Most people are valuing their health more than their vanity these days. They are looking at the problems and the disadvantages and deciding it’s not worth it.
Those who really want to lose weight are more likely to work with weight loss programs that offer drastic weight loss through safe methods that don’t require a lot of time. This is the current trend. And there are options that offer all of these characteristics.
One method that provides drastic, safe weight loss in a short period of time is homeopathic HCG dieting. It’s quite popular due to its accessibility, affordability and sheer effectiveness. And there are no known side effects.

With HCG Diet Direct she’s found a program that allows her to combine her desire to control her own body weight with her education and not feel off balance.
