I used to take thermoburn from a site called astronutrition. I took it after Christmas when I had got to nearly 11 and a half stone. It took me around 4 months to get down to 9 stone. They might not be healthy but they definitely work. Of course you have to put the effort in as well but they make you want to exercise! You also won't want to eat very much on them. I took 1 in the morning and would only eat half a slice of toast, then an apple and a very small lunch. I would then take another before exercise and later on eat a small tea. I still ate takeaways but only small portions and drunk alot of alcohol. I have come off them now I'm a size 8 and my weight is still the same even 2 months later. I am now eating normally and not exercising as much either. They might not be the correct way to lose weight but they certainly worked for me!
Slimming pills like Reductil and Xenical can and do work and many people have successful results.
These medications should only be prescribed by your GP, as they do have side effects, some severe and most GPs will not prescribe them unles your BMI is 30 or above.
Reductil works by suppressing the appetite and although you will feel hungry when you need food, after eating you will feel satisfied for longer and not crave food.
Xenical works by removing fats in food from the body, but a strict, low fat diet must be adhered to, if not then the main side effect is that excesses of fat will be flushed from the bowels, when least expected.

Most of the side effects are good! They give you a real buzz and make you want to exercise. They can make you extra moody and if taken too late on in the day interrupt sleep but like I said, they work. Nothing has happened since I stopped taking them, my weight is the same and I am now eating normally and have cut down on the exercise alot. I think if you really are at the correct weight for your body then maintaining that weight isn't too difficult. I still am quite active, walking alot and bike riding I just don't do the 30 mins of vigourous exercise I did whilst on the tabs for 5-6 times a week!
