Fat Blockers and Snake Oil



Recommended Posts

Hey all;

I've a question.

Did any of you try the so-called fat blockers, Cortislim (and the like). What results did you have (if any). I don't believe in them, although I do love watching the commercials, especially the testamonials with the disclaimer "Weight loss not typical."

Thanks!

I have never used any fat blockers....but did you ever eat them chips by Frito Lay I believe....they have Olean in them? Some sort of fancy schmancy oil that your body doesn't absorb...so guess where it goes??? Out the other end......and your poopin all the time....Soo i would assume that the fat blockers would cause pretty much the same responce....NO THANK YOU~~~ phew~~~

Wasn't Refrigerator Perry a Fat Blocker?

I never tried them. But I had a friend who did. She was like the Energizer Bunny. She just kept going and going and going.

Tried Cortislim. It did NOTHING. Tried pretty much every brand of those damn chitosan and fat absorber pills. Lots of money. NOTHING.

Really, I've tried almost EVERYTHING out there....NOTHING works. *sigh*

And right now I need a fill so not even my damn band is working. *whimper*

Sorry....I'm so vain I guess I thought this thread was about me....lol!

I tried just about everything, metabolite, accutrim, slimfast, stacker 2's, and so on... the last thing I bought was the trimspa, it made my stomach hurt, and nearly all of them made me jittery or bitchy. NO THANKS!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
