No No No No No No NO!!!!! Did I mention NO?!

After that "Bitter Pills" special report last issue of GL Magazine, I will warn everyone I know who is taking weight loss pills!
JUST NO! Common Sense just says "This Isn't Right, This Isn't Right!" How much more do you NEED?!

A flashing sign?

Drop the Pill DROP THE PILL!

No way! Anyways why would anyone take the pill knowing that it causes cancer? I dont understand why so many medications help you, but have horrible side affects at the same time.

Taking pills can be dangerous without proper supervision. If people are going to take them they should see a doctor and get regular check ups. A lot of people abuse pills, even teens do it.

As a last resort, this might be an option to help those with serious health problems concerning their weight. However, there are better solutions out there that don't have as great of a risk. I wouldn't even think about taking it unless it was absolutely necessary.

somw people are dangerously obese though... to the point where it is hard for them too lose weight and it can be very serious. i think if i was obese enough where it was dangerous i would take one but only then

I don't think that these pills should even be on the market. I would never take them, even if I was really overweight. You can always eat right and exercise. And if that doesn't work, there are other things doctors can do to help that don't involve such huge risks.

I know where your coming from @nikki3445 but it's not an issue of looking beautiful for people who are overweight. They might take the pills to look beautiful, but America's main problem is health. They shouldn't stay overweight just because they think it won't matter.

by K8luvscake on 7/3/2012 1:17:07 PM

all the comments about not taking pills should be heard by all the obese people. they should look at there selves and say "i am perfect the way i am and nobody can change me or tell me any different!!!" wo ever reads this and agrees please comment right back at me by:

@nikki3445, and say i agree

I know you all SAY You never would in a million years or whatever, but honestly, I think most of us girls would if someone made us feel insecure enough. I know I would, and that's not something I can easily admit. Sometimes I feel so fat, I'm afraid to sit in my friends' laps because I feel like I'm gonna squish them. Would I take a pill to fix that? Maybe. But let's be honest here, girls. You'd consider it. We all are insecure from time to time. It's not our fault. It's just in our nature, especially since our culture is so focused on perfectionism. I'm just glad that GL is a magazine that isn't focused on "What's Hot and Who's Not" stuff. Thanks GL!

taking a pill to lose weight wont get you anywhere. u dont learn anything. only people who arent up for the challenge to work out and eat heathy would take a pill like this. get smart people! stop trying to take the easy route that leads to cancer etc!

Never, my mom took phen phen when she was pregnant with me, till studies came out linking it to heart failure in death. She made me promise not to take one when I'm older, to lose weight the old fashioned way diet + excersise

by arg5890 on 7/2/2012 10:56:28 PM

I will never take a weightloss pill. They seem to do more harm then good. I learned from watching members of my family that if u eat in moderations and work out for 1-2 hours a day it is easy to stay healthy. I myself have activities planned all summer to keep myself off the couch and outside where i can stay healthy!!

by bellygirl1997 on 7/2/2012 10:43:33 PM

I would NEVER take the pills!!!!!
PS I agree with u, WinnieGirlie ;)

by Chocolate kiss on 7/2/2012 10:21:34 PM

I wouldn't take a pill for weight loss. I'd just use good ole exercise, eating fruits and veggies, moderatly eating sweets (because sugar is a part of the food pyramid but in moderation), and calorie control. Everyone's body type is different; you don't have to look like your best friend. c:

@NeverSayNeverGirl
I know this isn't a funny subject, but your comment made me laugh considering your username!!! I agree with you %101 tho.

by WinnieGirlie on 7/2/2012 8:41:52 PM

I would never take a pill to lose weight. NEVER.

by NeverSayNeverGirl on 7/2/2012 7:56:19 PM

I think this is a really bad idea; it's encouraging people to take pills that are really bad for you (not to mention they could lead to addiction and overdose) and it will just increase the mortality rate in america rather than decrease the amount of obesity. I would not take a pill to help me lose weight, knowing the potential risks and side effects.
