Hello fellow lapbanders!

I was wondering if anyone has ever heard of the weightloss "drug" Ace? I'm not a fan of weightloss pills in the slightest, but I have heard this is a natural way to assist in the body burning fat. A friend mentioned it to me yesterday and said that she has dropped 2-3 dress sizes since the summer has started when she began taking Ace. I googled it and didn't really find any detailed information on this product as far as if it's an appetite suppressant or just a Vitamin type thing. I'm hoping she isn't taking anything that would harm her body. Any info anyone has on it would be great to hear for research's sake. Thanks!

It's got a lot of stimulants in it, including caffeine and cocoa. It also has about 400% of the recommended B6- which can lead to nerve damage in the arms and legs.

Here's a great breakdown of it. My personal opinion? I wouldn't touch it.

Yeah, I'm with Mis. Stay away from it! Just reading all the caffeine in it, I'm already having palpitations. I found this link with a bunch of info...

I had taken it for a week or so before I got my Lapband on track. It's definitely the "new" thing to try around the area where I live. I couldn't tell a huge difference, but didn't take it long. I have heard it works quickly, but I'm sure there are always side effects. I have someone left I could sure stand to take for a jump start.

**meant I have some left, not "someone. "

I wouldn't do it either. the problem with wl pills is that the minute you stop taking it you risk the chance of gaining it back double.
