Anyone tried Green Coffee Extract recommended by Dr. Oz?



Recommended Posts

Here is the link.... I've have two friends taking it and they have seen results....

Apparently Dr. Oz conducted his own trial and got great results..... He doesn't endorse any particular brand.

Just wondering if anyone has tried it. I'm a slow loser and thought I might try it -- maybe it would boost my losses a little bit....

Dana I love you! But.... Don't waste your money! I know about that stuff. just another miracle voodoo cure designed to make you lighter by taking your money!

And Dr oz is "not endorsing something" everyday! :)

Well Damn.... LOL..... I'm not very familiar with Dr. Oz other than I know he's on Oprah right? I mean, I've heard of him but didn't know he was shill!

Oh well, another easy fix dream dashed! :)

I'm so sorry about your ulcer! What type of treatment did they give you?

Dana,

I have to agree with laura. One of the big points about having this surgery is to get away from having to take the "miracle cures". It took me a long time to learn an important lesson - all the diet pill/metabolism boosters are a scam. They are just preying on peoples hopes for a solution. And they all have the same testimonials.

Dr. Oz is getting paid to endorse a new weight loss solution every week. Last time, I heard it was Raspberry Ketones. I don't watch his show, but anytime I see a product on the web that says, "As seen on the Dr. Oz show", I move on.

Don't throw your money away, Oz is a known quack and there are many petitions going around trying to call him on it. He endorses (whether he wants to call it that or not, thats exactly what he does when he gives it so much play on TV) a lot of unscientific unproven junk products that the rest of the medical community laughs at.

Here is a good artical to start with if you are interested in learning a little more about the real reputation of Dr. Oz.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
