Has anyone tried the new Jillian Michaels QuickStart Rapid weight loss program, Maximum strenght fat burner pills, or the Thincare international Jillian Michaels maximum strenght calorie control tablets, or the triple process body detox and clense. If so could you tell me is it safe and is it worth the money?

Hello,
May 4, 2011 - 11:11amI haven't responded to a post in over a year. I read anything I can get my hands on on this topic. I am aware that I do not even drink CLOSE to as much water as I should. For some reason I really DON'T LIKE WATER. Weird I know. I drink liquids, tea, coffee, flavored water, all day. But I have been adding regular water to lunch, supper, and post workouts. I am hoping to increase slowly. I have been switching up the workouts. I alternate with running, Jillian MIchaels videos, and have recently been doing the Insanity vidoes with a friend 3 days a week. I also started doing these workouts after work on some days so I can get more sleep (not getting up at 5 a.m). I feel more rested if nothing else. I am 35, 5'5 and bounce between 138-143. I used to weigh 127-130. The weight has not budged, so between age, having two kids, and the PCOS, this might just be where I am. I'm trying to foucus on being healthy more than the number on the scale, but as a female, we all know that is hard! :)

You are so right! It is hard to not focus on that number on the scale. Keep up the good fight! Keep moving, and don't ever give up.

u are not eating enough food u are starving and therefore not losing weight. u need to fuel ur body to lose weight also ur wkouts are probably not enough are u mixing things up and adding weight training? I lost 70 lbs with out drugs just diet and exercise over 2 yrs this 3rd yr I gained back 10 and trying to lose that 10 along with an additional 10. Eating healthy small portions and lots of different exercise.

Just so you know.. if you eat less than 1200 calories a day then your body is going to hold onto everything it can. 1200 calories is the amount that your body burns off by itself. If you don't supply your body with at least 1200 calories in a day then you are failing your body and it won't lose weight period. I am a nurse in an anorexia and bulimic rehab center. You don't have to take my word on the calorie thing, I just don't want to see people trying to lose weight but instead end up destroying their body in the process.

I also have PCOS, and I am sorry to say, a low cal diet didn't work for me either. Only by taking Metformin and limiting my "bad" carbs I lost dramatic amounts of weight. Even down to 1200-1500 a day, with insulin resistance I just didn't have the metabolism to burn off the excess weight. I do find supplements help, but I really had to change HOW I ate, instead of just limiting calories. I would have to eat some 3000 calories to maintain my weight, and I was at half of that and lost very little. With the amount of exercise you are doing this is surprising. Be sure to change up what you do every day- mix up the cardio, surprise your body with something new, interval training etc. and see if it helps!

Im taking Metformin as well for PCOS, but I have not lost anything weight. Im up two lbs down 2 lbs. What diet worked for your dramatic weight loss. I eat about 1200-1400 calories and I work out about 4 days a week.

I don't have any kind of medical condition (that I know of) and I tried the quickstart 2 week deal and it didn't do anything for me either. I didn't fully utilize the fat burner pills because i got discouraged after the first 9 days so i don't really know how effective those are. may try those again separately but the quickstart didn't work for me either. i took it back and got a refund.

hello, seems to me you are on a severely resticted diet. If your body isnt getting sufficient nutrients your body shits down and does not burn calories in fear of starvation. 900 calories is WAY too little! depending on your height and weight, normal diet caloric intake should be 1200-1800
