I agree. Well, also those diet pills sometimes contain hormones--steroids which throw your entire body off balance. Yeah you might lose weight after initial therapy but then you come back with appetite alterations and changes in metabolism which make your body store fat instead of burning it. I don't remember the exact name of the drug but it was on TV for a while about a year ago...no I don't hear from it. Too many side effects.
