legal weight loss suplements
#1
Is there any good legal weight loss supplements these days?  I've been out of the game forever, and can remember when ECA was the big thing.

I have been using Yohimbine which seems to be helping- that said I am also on phentermine which is a prescription weight loss drug. 

After about 2 months on phentermine it lost its effectiveness and adding the yohimbine really helped curb my appetite again.

Are there any stores where I could find Yohimbine? I found it online but wondering if it's available at Walgreens or CVS ect. Thanks for your help.

I normally just get from iherb - 2 day delivery. Not sure on brick and mortar stores that would sell it

Acetyl-L-Cartinine has always worked super well for me. Also goes by L-cartinine. Would probably get one of the higher end vitamins if one could afford it. Some people say Green Tea can give them decent results but nothing truly groundbreaking.

Some of them have really bad side effects. I have found that fiber supplements work well for curbing appetite, and are generally safe. Even metamucil or bran muffins can work.

I seriously need a good sup for weight loss. I'll have a good look on here. I heard ephedrine may be useful?

I do not have a recommendation but I have a warning. This is a sensitive topic.

Weight loss supplements/pills etc. has been the Holy Grail since roman times.
Most make you do #1 or #2 more often and of course, you will loose a couple of pounds----- temporarily.
The overwhelming evidence is that most diets or diet supplements at best a short term remedy, and
they can cause a world of underlying vitamin or gastro problems if continued.

Best to get to your doctor, and get a dietician to look at what you eat. If you cannot do that- then keep a log for 2 weeks on what you eat & when you eat and study it for
clues to your weight. Take some baby steps to change your diet and look to the long term solution.

Believe me, I honestly for all peeps who have weight issues. 
It's a long term, life altering solution WE should all be after...……...IMHO...………………..Foken

I'm not sure if there are any supplements that work for weight loss. I don't know much about Yohimbe. Ephedrine is a stimulant, and all stimulants have serious side effects. We need really medications for weight loss. A few have been developed that are not stimulants and cause some weight loss, but most health insurers have a flat-out policy against paying for them. 

As for dieting, I have tried diet after diet, lifestyle change after lifestyle change. None of them work in the long run. Many other people I know have had the same (lack of) results.

I was getting fat even when I was an infant, doing what all the other infants did -- lying in my crib and drinking breast milk.

As a teenager, I became a vegetarian because I couldn't stand the thought of eating animals. I switched to a diet that was full of vegetables. I lost weight at first, then it all came back on, then I gained another 50 pounds in the next decade -- all while I was still a vegetarian.

Science is starting to figure out why some people gain so much weight. Some genetic causes have been found, and one very dramatic form of genetically-caused obesity can now be totally reversed with medicine. In other cases, it seems man-made chemicals are the culprit, with some people more susceptible to these chemicals than others. Rising weight levels seem related to an entire set of disorders affecting the information-based systems of the body -- the immune system, the hormonal system, and the neurological system.

I have a scientific background in this areas, and am working on a book about the causes of weight gain. I really would like people to support this effort, either by reading parts of the book and commenting on it, or maybe by supporting Kickstarter campaign when I get further along, or mentioning my book on Facebook (when I actually finish writing it, etc.) 

Anyone here interested in this project?
