With spring and summer approaching, many of my friends have been talking about one thing: losing weight. As we started talking about all the different diet plans out there, one friend asked, "Why diet, when you can just pop a diet pill?" Is it really that easy? Being completely naive about diet pills, I decided to pull a list of the top searched diet pills to find out what all the hype was about. I can see why alli made it to the top of the list. According to their customer testimonials, this pill, along with diet and exercise can increase weight loss up to 50 percent. Has alli kept it's promise? Find out more at AOL Body. Did you know Phentermine received FDA approval back in 1959? It's still the top searched diet pill today. It's strange to think people have been using phentermine for so long.
I have to say, I'm a little skeptical of all these miracle pills. There are so many diet pills that out there that I question how safe they really are. Some of these diet pills I have actually heard of like Hoodia and Hydroxycut. But what exactly are Meridia and Lipovox?
Yes, popping a diet pill does sound much easier than counting your calories or exercising, but do they really work? Have you tried any of these diet pills? And if so, what worked for you? Try searching for diet pills on AOL Search. Or, if diet pills aren't your thing, you can check out AOL Body for weight loss tips.

Whoa. I can't believe I just came across this article on my netscape news page that I read every day and I can't freaking believe all the comments I am reading about Zylene! The crazy thing is that I had never even heard the word "Zylene" until three days ago my husband's friend called him and told him about this company that is actually based in Largo, Fl (about 10 minutes away from where we live in Madeira Beach). This friend is actually dating one of the top producers who hosted an unofficial meeting in her apartment yesterday regarding Zylene and becoming a seller for this "wonder drug". I told him not to go and further more I told him if he ended up spending any money we were getting a divorce. (not really but u know)

WHY WHY are Americans supporting these rippoff drug companies?? Wake up America- stop with the meds.

I personally believe that when you gain weight you do not gain weight overnight so it should not fall off overnight! That is not healthy! Why not do safely and effectively and lose the weight once and for all with Herbalife products! You save money on your food bill at the end of the month and the weight you lose stays off! I believe so much in these products that I quit my job to work with the company! They are 28 years strong and in 65 countries around the world! David Beckham and the whole LA Galaxy soccer team uses them! Email me if you want more info about how this really does work!

It is so obvious that the testimonials above are being written by an advertiser. If this "natural" pill was so effective, don't you think loads of Americans would be taking it, with the obesity problem in this country? Please people, don't be so naive and gullible.
The best way is to eat less, healthy and exercise DAILY. There is yet to be a pill without side effects. I took Accomplia and it did not work, simply did not kill my appetite as it should. Accomplia for some strange reason has not been approved in the US yet. I got it in the UK.
I think it is daily exercise that keeps me trim.

Go to http://www.health4wealth.com That is the home page.
The likes to order from are http://www.health4wealth.com/zylenesales or http://www.health4wealth.com/zylene4u
The name of the product is zylene, that is not the company that sells zylene. The company is health4wealth and it is product my geopharma. Geopharma is a publically traded company that made about 70% of the ephedra products.
You can say what you want but health4wealth is not just about Zylene its about natural and organic dietary supplements such as nutravex and biozyte. The products are pharmaceutical grade and of very high quality. They are filled with great antioxidents such as green tea, Acai, and Resveratrol.

Hey all you guys & ladies out there. Diet pills NO-NO. The best diet you can find is SOUTH BEACH---I started 2 years ago on Jan 12 and by April 15(same year) lost 51 pounds. It has stayed off all but 10 lbs. And I am in the process of losing that. All natural, good food. Lost 20 lbs 1st 2 weeks. Yahoo for South Beach.

Unfortunately, I did not try the primary weight loss pills, Phentermine and Zylene that everyone is raving about. However, I used to use the Green Tea Fat Burner, naively thinking that it was the third healthiest alternative to weight loss next to exercise and a proper diet. However, I truly believe that the Green Tea Fat Burner served as a catalyst towards my developing a Hyperactive Thyroid
Disease. After being diagnosed with a Hyperactive Thyroid, I decided to research this condition to see if there were any "natural" herbs that could cause this and I learned that "Bladderwrack Root" was one of the ingredients that was in Green Tea that also found to cause Thyroid problems. Fortunately, the love of my life, who is a Medical Doctor once said "just because it is all natural doesn't mean that it can't kill you". I didn't listen and only God will determine the outcome. I said all of this to say that you should be careful and research the side effects of each ingredient carefully prior to taking. Believe me you've definitely sparked my interest with this Zylene talk. Be well and Be blessed!!!

It would be really sad if you all are bull shitting about Zylene. I tried every diet in the world and I never heard of it.
By Exo77 on Feb 11th 2008 at 10:17PM
I CAN HONESTLY TELL YOU FOLKS OUT THERE, ZYLENE WORKS,MERIDIA IS GREAT ALSO, BUT ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY LEAVE PHENTERMINE AND EPHEDRA DERIVATIVES ALONE THEY ARE SHIT PRODUCTS THAT WILL JACK UP YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE AND CAN CAUSE PERMANENT HEART DAMAGE TRUST ME PLEASE LEAVE THAT CRAP ALONE, I HAVE BEEN IN THE HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY FOR 31 YEARS AND I HAVE SEEN JUST ABOUT ALL OF IT. STAY SAFE

By joy on Feb 11th 2008 at 10:24PM
I would like to say that I have tried many diets and the only one that works for me is herbalife. It is great!I have lost 4 dress sizes.

Under products there are some FAQs... and all about what is in the 3 products.
You do not need to take the other two pills (biozyte and nutravex) however for best results it is strongly recommended. If not make sure you take a very good multivitmin so you get all your minerals and nutrients you do not get in your diets.
By Jason on Feb 11th 2008 at 10:29PM
clearly 3 out 4 of the post for Zylene are people or the same person that works for the company. Don't go out and buy the product because of this nonsense. For God's sake people it didn't even make the list.

So anyway, to make a long story short my husband did end up going to this meeting and he (as well as 10 of his closest friends)ended up spending money (about $300). No, I'm not going to divorce him yet. However, I have spent just about my whole night last night and all day today searching for information on Zylene. What I have found has been totally positive but also decidedly biased. My husband did bring home two sample packs last night which we took today and both of us agreed that it gives a ton of energy without being too jittery. I do feel as though the results have been positive enough to try selling it once we receive our box of samples to pass out. What really intrigues me about Zylene isn't really even the product itself (although I am excited about it's ephedra-like properties)but rather what the company (Health4wealth) claims the earning potential is for selling this stuff and getting others to sell. From what I can tell it's basically a pyramid/matrix system which usually I wouldn't consider getting involved in. However, I can't deny that the buzz so far is good and furthermore, spreading rapidly. At the meeting my husband and friends attended they were pretty much assured their earnings would reach the six figure mark in less than 6 months which pretty much did all but assure me this thing was legitimate. My husband on the other hand is practically shouting it from the rooftop. He wants to get our whole family in on it while we are on the level directly under the top 10 seller but I want him to wait until we actually have a check in our hands.
Anyways, I'm sorry for rambling but I just wanted to shed some light on why possibly all the posts about Zylene are suddenly popping up. I myself would LOVE some more information from someone who has been selling this stuff and can tell me how much they are earning.
In the meantime, I made a website today (www.Zylenefacts.com) to post whatever info. I come across since in my own searches all I could find was how great Zylene is, followed by a link to the sellers health4wealth page. I do encourage anyone interested in this thing to check out my website since it is basically like a journal where I (and others) can discuss whether or not Zylene is really a scam or if it is actually the wonder drug we've been waiting for.
P.S. There is a link to Health4Wealth on my webpage.

Me and my husband have used zyleen in the past and we have used other diet pills before that. Out of all the diet pills we have used zyleen has been the only one that works. I lost 20lbs with no exercise and my husband lost 30lbs with no exercise. We stoped taking it after about 3 months and we keep the weight off by eating healthy and working out on a daily bases. Zyleen is a great way to boost your energy level so you can get out there and exercise. I love the product and i will recommend it to anyone.

Omg Alli only causes diarrhea if you eat more fat then you're supposed to. Don't eat like a pig and you won't have loose stools.
By Melissa on Feb 11th 2008 at 10:35PM
I just started Phentramine and I love 'em. I've lost 7 pounds in less than a week... i've taken 'em in the past and they've always worked best for me.. I say ... do whatever works.. as long as its legal. :) ~!

Again, that site is:

Remember, it was just made today on a generic web host (by me) so while it is informative it's not exactly going to win any awards for style. ; )
By Missy Brooke on Feb 11th 2008 at 10:39PM
hey number 51 if you lost weight without diet and exercise why do you care if the pill gives you a boost of energy to exercise. Hhmm just another person doing a little false advertising.
