What are the "best" diet pills to suppress appetite?

Question

Preferably diet pills, nothing too expensive.

My mom said I need to lose weight for my prom dress -_- so she said she'd buy me Hydroxycut but they are supposed to be "fat burners"

I have self control and I know I can work well with just control but since my calorie intake will be pretty restrictive and low, I don't want to take chances.

I need to lose around 7 lbs, hopefully from my midsection, since I'm 117 lbs. it'd also be great cause then it would make it easier for me to get to 100lbs!

best diet pills?

You've never seen my body nor should you care about my weight loss or weight loss goals. Answer the question or leave, it's that simple.

i think you and I have had an exchange about this type of thing before, so you know my personal feelings. but to simply answer your question, you're literally throwing your money away with diet pills. I took hydroxycut close to ten years ago, and it wasn't very effective. in fact, it used to mess with my heartbeat, that's why I stopped using it. also, back then, it was legal to have ephedrine in it, and they can now no longer use that as an ingredient. that was the only thing that made it at all effective. if it was so simple that all we had to do was take a pill, we wouldn't need gyms or nutritional listings on food products.

if you need to cut weight for the near future, you're going to want to spend a fairly significant amount of time doing cardio, probably around an hour a day, five days a week. but 7 lbs is reasonable over the course of a month (proms are usually in may, right?) if you do the right things.

nutritionally, you'll want to LIMIT your carb intake, but not cut it out altogether, because you'll need energy for the cardio. try to get plenty of lean protein. also, one of the best things in the world for your metabolism is to drink lots of water. and you'll want to space out your meals properly, that does WONDERS for your metabolism. the same amount of calories, carbs, fats, etc can be consumed in different ways that will have a significant effect on how your body breaks it all down. try to to eat smaller meals every 2-3 hours instead of the usual 3 meals every 5-6 hours the way most of society seems to do. the amount of time between meals affects how your metabolism manages what you eat. in layman's terms, if you only eat every 6 hours or more, your body says, "i'd better hang on to this and burn it slowly because it's going to be a while before more fuel comes along." that means nutrients are going to be stored as fat instead of burned off as fuel. if you eat smaller, more frequent meals, your metabolism starts to say, "f*ck it, burn away! there's more coming soon!" and it won't get stored as fat to be survived off of in times of hunger. also, you want make sure that you lose fat, not muscle. the more muscle you have, the better your metabolism is at rest.

unfortunately, there are no healthy shortcuts, but doing all that should work out for you. remember, suppressing your appetite and NOT eating is counter-productive. no matter what you want, your body is going to respond in the way that it's biologically intended to. doing things the healthy way is not only safer, but it's MORE EFFECTIVE. you don't have to avoid food. just manage it, eat good things, and eat at the right times, and you will be SHOCKED at how much better it works. good luck!

You could try Ally. From what I know it's a short term solution.

Go to a weight control center. They will provide you with real diet pills, not that crap you buy at GNC, or other places.

They give you straight up amphetamine. It's not good for you, but you'd only be using it to get into your prom dress.

Alli diet pills are the same chemical compound as a prescription diet pill that is used for morbidly obese patience. It keeps you from digesting a large portion of your fat intake thus reducing your total calories. If you already eat low fat though, it will not do much for you.

In the end it's better to just eat right, reduce your calories, exercise, and drink lots of water.

I don't think miracles happen. Stay away from any "diet pills" your doctor didn't prescribe.
