But does it really work? (For more information on this, go to: http://celopindietpill.blogspot.com/ )

The Lipozene diet pill is manufactured by Obesity Research Institute. You may have heard of them - they previously marketed similar products under the names Fiberslim and Propolene.

The central ingredient in Lipozene, is a substance called glucomannan. And this is the same substance that was used in Obesity Research Institute's prior diet products. So first, you need to take a good look at what exactly is glucomannan.

Without getting too technical, (I don't want to put you to sleep with a bunch of terminology from my Chemistry lab manuals!), glucomannan is basically a fiber supplement, derived from a plant. It is a substance that your body cannot absorb, so it just passes through your system, while providing fiber to help move everything else through. (Trying hard, not to get disgusting here!)

Now, there are clinical studies which confirm that glucomannan lowers blood-fat levels, and levels of the "bad" cholesterol (LDL). There is also some confirmation that consuming glucomannan with water before a meal, will give you a full feeling (the idea being that you will then eat less).

But before you run to your computer, to order a year's supply of Lipozene, I'm going to give you the honest truth. There are very serious problems with this product!

Yes I realize, you may have heard lots of stories about successful weight loss using Lipozene - from people trying to sell it to you! Well, fortunately for you, I refuse to sell people something that I wouldn't use myself. So I am going to reveal to you, the whole true story, about Lipozene and weight loss.


First, you need to clearly understand the problems:

#1: Diet pills are still drugs. And ALL drugs cause associated side effects. And sometimes, these side effects can even be dangerous.

#2: Glucomannan is a fiber product. And all fiber products can cause certain vitamins and minerals to bind with them - thus preventing your body from using those essential vitamins and minerals. Thus, it is advisable to take a quality multi-vitamin supplement, if you decide to use this type of diet pill.

#3: Since Lipozene is essentially a fiber product, this brings up the question: Why not just buy one of the commonly available fiber supplements, at a cost that is far less than Lipozene?

#4: There are many claims of success floating around the Internet, purportedly from Lipozene users. However, even these people state that they were following nutritional diet plans, and engaging in regular exercise, while on Lipozene. This means that we have no way of knowing whether they would have succeeded equally, merely by using a diet plan and exercise alone.


None of the problems above, however, addresses the most serious concern with Lipozene: Consumer Fraud.

The company that makes the product (Obesity Research Institute), has been cited numerous times for billing customers under false pretenses, and for refusing to provide refunds under conditions where a refund was promised. Furthermore, the Federal Trade Commission has charged the company with making "false and unsubstantiated claims" in the past. As a result, the company has been forced to pay $1.5 million in "customer redress"!

So as we can see, rather than living up to its promises of "easy weight loss", Lipozene comes with a list of concerns, and even questionable results. Plus, it is sold by a company with a history of criminal actions! Fortunately for you, there are other alternatives to Lipozene, which WILL help you to lose weight quickly. But you need to have a Complete Diet Plan - one that uses SAFE supplements to accelerate your weight loss! And I will layout all the details for you, (plus show you for Free, the step-by-step way to put together your own Weight Loss Plan), in my next article in this series.

Male and Female, today's magazines are filled with models who's first priority, is to showoff their absolutely flat, toned tummies or rock-hard "six-pack"! So why have you found it so hard, to get the great-looking midsection you want?

Well for one, the stomach region is a primary fat storage area for humans. That's why your body fights against you, by removing fat from your other body areas first. You have to find a way to convince your body to do something, it will not naturally do on its own.

In addition to this, people who are trying to lose belly fat are faced with a huge assortment of Bad Methods: expensive equipment, expensive club memberships, expensive weight-loss franchises - none of which is needed to great those great-looking abs.

Fortunately for you, you CAN lose belly fat. And you can do it in a way, that does NOT require expensive fitness club memberships, needs NO expensive home fitness equipment, is easy to do and takes little time!


But first, you have to understand the methods which do NOT work, but are sold and promoted widely. Let's start with the Worst - shall we?

#1: Ab Blasters, Ab Masters, and other "Infomercial Ab Machines"

Have you noticed how these come and go, and how there's always a new, "better" one that's just come onto the market? The reason none of these devices has a long consumer "lifespan"? They don't work! Plus, some of the products (and the companies behind them) are so deceptive - they been hit with million-dollar fines!

#2: Endless Sit-ups, Crunches, and other "Ab Exercises"

Sit-ups don't work, and they can create back problems. But even worse, doing lots of sit-ups can actually make your waist look thicker! Crunches are a bit better but again, back problems can be aggravated by them. Plus, you can do crunches forever, and not get a six-pack, nor a toned tummy. As for the many other so-called "ab exercises" - don't waste your time. You won't lose your belly fat, or get a great looking mid-section, by doing any "targeted" exercises like these.

#3: Targeted "Spot Reduction"

Which brings us to the final problem - "spot reduction" doesn't work. When you lose a pound, your body decides where to take it from. There's no way to "target" your abs (or any other body area), to specifically lose fat from that region.


So what CAN you do, to lose belly fat?

Your first step is to lose fat overall. Dieting can help, but to get that great-looking tummy, you need to combine diet AND exercise. But what kind of exercise is best?

You need to employ fully-body exercise. Specifically, you need to choose exercises that do target the ab muscles, but while using your entire body. (I layout a specific, step-by-step, tummy-toning and six-pack-creating Exercise Plan, in the next article in this series at http://celopindietpill.blogspot.com )

There are TWO major benefits to using this kind of exercise:

#1: While "spot-reduction" doesn't work, Spot Toning does. That is, while you cannot tell your body where to take the fat off, you certainly CAN tell your body which muscles to concentrate on firming!

#2: Exercises that only use one group of muscles (such as "ab exercises"), burn very little fat. But full-body exercises burn the most fat possible - and in the shortest amount of time!

So you see, the key to getting that six-pack, or that fantastic-looking "toned" tummy - is to lose belly fat with an easy-to-do daily exercise plan, that takes little time and requires no special equipment. And I'll show you how to do exactly that, in the next article in this series at: http://celopindietpill.blogspot.com/

Can you use Hydroxycut for fast weight loss - without suffering through any of a list of frequent side effects? (For more information on this, go to: http://celopindietpill.blogspot.com/ )

Hydroxycut is a product made by MuscleTech, a well-known supplement manufacturer. It is a "thermogenic" compound, meaning that it helps you to burn off more fat by raising your metabolism. It contains both natural and laboratory-made ingredients, including well-known fat burning substances - some of which are used in many others thermogenic supplements.

(Note: The original form of Hydroxycut contained Ephedra. When widespread dangerous ephedra side effects became fully known, bottles of Hydroxycut were quickly removed from store shelves under Federal mandate! MuscleTech then had to scramble to create an Ephedra-free version of Hydroxycut, to avoid those dangerous side effects - and prevent another multi-nation-wide recall. Thus, I will only be discussing the Ephedra-free version of Hydroxycut, from this point onwards...)

Here are the known benefits of Hydroxycut, in regards to weight loss:
-increased amount of fat loss and weight loss
-increased speed of fat loss and weight loss
-increased energy and stamina
-stronger and more successful workouts
-some reports of decreased appetite as well (which would obviously be a further advantage to those trying to lose fat)

Now before you run off and buy a year's supply of Hydroxycut, I'm going to be honest with you. There are some very substantial problems associated with using this weight loss supplement. In fact, over *90%* of those who take Hydroxycut have reported serious Side Effects from its use!

This may be a shock to you, but don't worry. Fortunately for you, I'm going to reveal Insider Secrets to using Hydroxycut for fast weight loss, while avoiding most of those side effects. (And possibly, losing weight quickly without ANY side effects!)


But first, you need to understand what those side effects are - so we can solve them together.

1) ALL diet supplements are still drugs. So they all have side effects.

2) The more frequently-reported Hydroxycut Side Effects include: blurred vision, nose bleeds, restlessness and hyperactivity, increased heart rate, increased/decreased blood pressure, dizziness, light-headedness, headaches. There are even some reports of vaginal yeast infections, body rashes and acne outbreaks!?

3) One particular side effect that is cause for great concern, is arrhythmia (irregular heartbeat). Hydroxycut users have reported feeling their heart skip beats - and even "stall"!

4) A concern for men in particular, are reports of Hydroxycut-caused impotence. In fact, the bottle's label does note the potential for "sexual side effects". Since decreased blood pressure has been widely reported, this would be the most likely suspect for causing the difficulty in achieving and maintaining erections, in men using Hydroxycut.


In addition, many of those who claim success using Hydroxycut, also participated in a diet and exercise regimen during the same period. So there is no way to know for sure, if they would have succeeded without using Hydroxycut.

Even worse, after you suffer through some or all of the above side effects, you then find that your success is short-lived. ALL diet pills only work for a short period. The typical diet pill user finds that after awhile, your body builds up resistance to the pill's effects - the pills lose potency!

This potency problem is much worse, in this new, ephedra-free version of Hydroxycut. Almost all of those who used the previous, Ephedra version, have found that the new ephedra-free version, produces "watered down" results.

Diet pills all come with the promise of "easy weight loss", but we have seen that using Hydroxycut can produce Side Effects accompanying its use - and a long list of them! However, as I told you above there ARE ways to minimize (or even eliminate) these side effects - yet still lose weight rapidly and easily! And I discuss exactly how to do that, in the next article in this series at: http://celopindietpill.blogspot.com

And despite their claims of rapid, easy weight loss, the fact is that a large majority of diet pills DO NOT WORK AT ALL.

The first diet pills go all the way back to the 1950s, when amphetamines were offered as a way to suppress your appetite/boost your metabolism. Unfortunately, amphetamines (also known as "speed") are highly addictive, and caused so many serious side effects that the drug companies were forced to take them off the market.

There then followed a long line of diet-pill drugs, which came and went as the continual discovery of side effects would force a new pill off the market within a few years. The most infamous case of this, were the "fen-phen" diet pills. The FDA approved this combination of fenfluramine and phentermine, assuring all that it was completely safe. Mere MONTHS later, the FDA had to issue a humiliating reversal of its decision - the "fen-phen" combination produced some of the worst side effects ever seen in any diet pill offered!

But "Big Pharma" wasn't about to lose this "cash cow" that easily. In order to regain the trust of the general public, they began moving towards the use of "natural ingredients" in their new diet pill offerings. Of course, just because a chemical is produced by a plant, doesn't mean it's any safer than one produced in the laboratory.

The most notorious "natural" diet pill ingredient, was ephedra. Similar to caffeine (but more potent), it was eventually found to be causing caffeine-like side effects - but much more serious. Heart palpitations, heart arrhythmias, other heart problems, allergic reactions, nervous system problems - quite a list indeed! It too, was eventually banned in most of the technologically-advanced, Western civilized nations.

Are you seeing a pattern yet?

All of this does not mean that diet pills are entirely useless. A very few, select diet pills, have some value in assisting with weight loss. They can be useful - but only if you know how to use them correctly, and are fully aware of their problems:

1) ALL diet pills are potent drugs. They all have side effects - some of which are potentially very dangerous.

2) The more frequent side effects of diet pills include: heart complications, high blood pressure, dizziness, nervousness, insomnia, dry mouth, and diarrhea or constipation.

3) Like many other drugs, diet pills can be addictive. People have been known to become quite dependent on these pills, even long after they have stopped their dieting.

4) Many "successful" diet pill claims, are by people who also used a diet plan and exercised regularly during this period. Thus, there's no way to know for certain, whether they would have lost the same amount of weight WITHOUT using the diet pill.

5) Recently, Big Pharma has tried a different approach: Offering watered-down versions of their prescription diet pills, as "over-the-counter" diet pills. Of course, being watered-down, they are even more useless than their original, stronger, prescription-required versions.


Even worse, after taking all these risks and possibly suffering through a list of side effects, ALL diet pills only work for a short time. Typically, your body will adapt to their weight-loss effects, and the pills will lose potency after a couple of months.

But worst of all, is the "bounce". Many diet pill users report that after they went off the pills, they regained all the weight they lost while on the pills - plus more! (I have personal experience with this: After trying several different diet pills, each time I finished my diet-pill regimen, I would eventually end up at a HIGHER weight, than the weight I started at before using the diet pill!)

So as we can see, despite the promise of "easy weight loss", using Celopin Diet Pill (and other diet pills) can lead you through a potential minefield of problems and dangers. But as I said earlier, there are ways to deal with these problems, and alternatives for losing weight quickly and easily - if you know where to find Diet Plans that really work! And I will show you exactly that (plus give you full details on how to make your weight loss Permanent, and avoid the "bounce" entirely), in my next article in this series on: http://celopindietpill.blogspot.com

And can it really help you lose weight that fast??
Although many think of this diet as something "new" in truth, it's been around for a long time. Every few years it seems to take on a new life, as the myth of its creation is re-circulated through the "moron mainstream media".
The Fairy Tale goes like this: The Sacred Heart Memorial Hospital in Montreal, Canada, designed this diet to be used on heart disease patients who were scheduled for upcoming surgery. In order to lose substantial weight quickly, the patients would use the diet for 7 days at a time.
The problem is, the Sacred Heart hospital has sent out an official press release which says that no one at their hospital, "took part in the development of this diet". On top of that, their Medical Centre has also officially "disclaimed any association" with the diet. On top of THAT, the American Heart Association has officially stated that the diet is a fake.
Get the idea yet?
Now this is not to say that the diet has no value. The diet CAN work - and work well - IF you know the correct way to use it.
(By the way, this diet goes under many other names, for example: the Sacred Heart Memorial Hospital Diet , the Cleveland Clinic Diet, the Spokane Heart Diet, and the Miami Heart Institute Diet.)
The first priority is to deal with the problems the diet creates:
1) The diet claims that you can lose 10 pounds or more, in a single week. As expected, weight loss that occurs this quickly, is mostly water. Which means there's the danger that you will gain all the weight back, as soon as you go off the diet.
2) The diet is very low-calorie. As expected, this means that you cannot continue the diet for long periods - and certainly cannot follow it as a "healthy lifestyle"!
3) The diet is somewhat unhealthy (due to its severe restrictions) - but this problem can be reduced with the proper modifications to its "rules".
4) The very low-calorie nature of the diet, and it's food selections, cause frequent, unwanted "side effects". Diarrhea is the most widely reported. But also, weakness, light-headedness, dizziness - and even fainting! (The modifications mentioned in point 3 above, can also reduce these problems somewhat.)

Here is a brief outline of what it's like to follow the Sacred Heart Diet. (I will give you the full diet plan, including the main Soup Recipe, plus ways to deflect the "side effects", in the next article in this series - see below for details.)
The diet runs for 7 days. The main component is a "special" soup recipe, which can (and should) be eaten all 7 days. To that, is added a list of fluids, which are also allowed on every day.
On each of the 7 days, there are specific foods added to this base. (Different foods on each day.) Most of the additions, not surprisingly, are vegetables and fruits. However, there are days which also allow some definitely non-dietary additions: some starches, baked potato WITH butter, milk, beef, rice.
Despite these odd additions, the truth is, the Sacred Heart Diet is NOT easy. And it can be unpleasant - especially in its "side effects". But you can deal with these problems, and we will discuss exactly how to do that - plus the Full Diet Plan layout (including the Recipe), in my next article in this series on: http://celopindietpill.blogspot.com/

Note: I don’t know if they can sue a guy, just for putting his story online to help warn others. But just in case, I’ll play it safe: No brand names will be mentioned in this article. (And no, the pill that nearly killed me wasn’t celopin.)

Anyways, every time they put me on a diet pill, I’d suffer through a list various bad side effects. And after I’d had enough (with barely any weight loss results by the way), most of them would be taken off market due to dangerous side effects (Note: discovered AFTER we all suffered!), or they were proven UN-effective in losing fat.

Besides, have you tried ordering diet pills recently. As I began my online investigation, I was shocked to see the hundreds of complains about diet pill ripoffs!

Here’s a typical quote:

"On 12/03/06 I placed an online order with www.(name removed)... they said they had some wrong info in there system and were going to call my Doc for a fax number... Two day's later it said there was no information the day after that my account was charged and I checked online again and it said My Doctor had rejected it. I spoke with him and he said he has never heard or received anything from them! I sent them 3 more emails asking what was going on and asked for my money back no reply. Yesterday I checked again and it said they are sending me a non prescription alternative. I sent an email back telling them I do not want it I want my money back because they lied. Still no reply."

Here’s one with a reply from a consumer advocate website (spelling errors left unchanged in the interest of accuracy):

"Ordered product from (name removed) pharmacy. They substitued a different product than I ordered. I requested to send product back. They stated that in their terms that they can substitue another product. I may return product but they charged $45.00 for processing and cancellation fees plus I have to pay return shipping."

Response:
"I had the same experience with (name removed) Pharmacy - ordering one thing and receiving something else. So I called them and requested a refund. Of course, their pat line was that the fine print told me that I could not get a refund once the product had been shipped."

And this beauty:

"My daughter, friend and I all ordered the "free" thin- tabs for the small shipping and handling fee. Before we knew it we had all been charged $149.99, this happened immediately, and we received a large bottle of the pills which NONE of us accepted and all 3 of us sent back " refused". We were all told we had agreed to a monthly club type thing and would be charged EVERY month.

...My daughter cancelled her credit card as the only way to get them to stop charging her monthly charges. My friends account was sent to Collections (in Bombay INDIA) and I have yet to see a credit on my Visa."


After I finally got fed up with diet drugs, I started working out at a gym. The muscle-bound oafs were all recommending various "supplements" (just another word for "drugs"), to all the beginners like me. So like a fellow oaf, I tried some of them. More wasted money and time.

The answer to REAL weight loss is NOT drugs. The odd drug may work for awhile, but it’s just a temporary solution and the bad side effects just aren't worth it. And the answer is definitely NOT "supplements" either.

I’m just trying to do the right thing, and help people to not make the same mistakes *I* made. Don’t get SUCKERED the way I did for so long. Consider yourself warned!


Now that I’ve "done my duty" and warned you about the worst (drugs & supplements), I need to warn you about the other failures people often encounter on the road to successful weight loss.
