Hoodia - Diet Pills & Supplements - General Discussions

After spending several hours searching the forums, I couldn't find any real current Hoodia discussions (Dec 07 was the last one I saw). I would love to hear how other folks have done with it.

I purchased HoodiThin on Sunday and received it in the mail on Tues (Today), that was a good start! I have been reading a lot about it, I work 12 hour mid shifts and have time to spare and to think about food :( I purchased it after reading about it in a buyers guide at http://hoodiagordoniiguide.com/hoodia_sitemapg.htm. This company provided 2 independent lab certifications as well as a certificate for the specific batch you recieve and a "permit" from south africa to access the hoodia. It was pricey though $60 per bottle. But the site specifically says pure hoodia is not cheap and if it is under $25 beware b/c it probably has more filler than hoodia.

So far I really haven't felt anything. The instructions say 1-3 droppers full (I purchased the liquid form), I started out with 1 dropper full in the morning w/ breakfast of yogurt and was hungry 3 hours later. I took another dropper full and waited a long hour and ate lunch and now I think I am hungry again. I have read that it takes some time to get into the system though but I also hear it is instant. It might be my perpetual boredom at 12:30 am and the smells of all the take-out food that everyone else in the office is eating. I think I have a real problem of knowing when I am truely hungry and when something just smells/looks good.

I will definately will use it all since I paid so much for it and give it my best opinion.

I hope to hear about other folks who have used it recently and their experiences.

Today is the second day of taking Hoodia and I think it has finally kicked in. I took it right when I got up and then again approx 8 hours later when I started to feel hungry. Don't get me wrong though, I still had breakfast and lunch but the desire to snack is gone...I don't feel full per say but it is more of a feeling that my stomach just disappeared! :smile:

No sensations really at all.

I will keep the updates coming. I would still love to hear how it worked for others.

I wasn't very good about taking the Hoodia over the weekend, only really got it in the AM but I really think it is getting into my system and working. I took it this morning 1hr before I ate and haven't felt hungry at all. I am still fighting the urge to eat just because there is food around. That is proving harder than I thought, especially with so much free time at work. I broke down today and had a big of Chex Snack Mix (210 cals) ouch! So I guess I have to double my efforts for the rest of the day.

Would still love to hear how Hoodia worked for others!

I bought a 6 month supply of Miracle Burn that is supposed to have the real Hoodia in it and I found it on a few websites stating it really works. Great testimonials and everything. And it costs about $45 a month. Cheaper of course the more you buy at once. Well, I haven't noticed any change whatsoever. No extra energy, I could take this and pass out right afterwards. Also, I am still hungry ALL the time. So please keep us updated on what you are taking.

I bough 3 months supply of hoodia gordonii pills jst to get started and see if it works for me as it worked for the others.
My frinend is on hoodia 6 months with pretty good results and thats the reason I bought hoodia for myself too.
They have a large variations of hoodia gordonii products and It was hard to choose but they have also reviews so it made it easier.

I use a cheap one I found on ebay that claims to have a lot less filler in the capsules, plus it was dirt cheap. It doesn't make me less hungry but for all three days I've been on it, my desire to gorge at night has all but vanished. I don't want to jinx myself, though...

I am writing an article for an online magazine called SheKnows (http://www.sheknows.com) about Hoodia and Green Tea diet pills. Has anyone used them who can answer a few questions for me? I will be writing about their efficacy, side effects, etc. and I need anecdotal evidence. I would really appreciate any input, you can be any size, any age, but I would prefer women because it is a magazine directed towards women. You can respond via email or through this forum. The deadline for the article is Friday, May 9.

Hi there, I am not an advertisement!! I joined today and introduced myself in the intro thread. Anyways, I have been using hoodia for over a month now with great success. I did a whole lot of research before purchasing. My only suggestion is there is a link somewhere in this thread I believe and it offers true hoodia. Mine is by millenium health. Only thing I do is double the dose that they advice.

I have changed my eating habits tremendously, and also incorporated exercise :shock:

. I would suggest to stay away from anything on ebay!

Lucy :O)

Just checked the link in this thread and its not the one I was thinking of, but somewhere on this site there is a link to it.

Edited to add this link...there is a page on this site that leads you too another site, and that is the hoodia I use millenium health:

Hi Lucy,

Thanks so much for your input. I will use the site in my article. Do you mind answering a few quick questions via e-mail or phone? You can e-mail me first at lexilizz@yahoo.com, and let me know if over the phone is okay and if you don't feel comfortable with that, I can just send you the questions to your e-mail. Thanks again!

Hi!

I am writing an article about Hoodia and Green Tea diet pills for an online women's magazine (sheknows.com). Do you mind if I use any of your quotes about Hoodia in the article? If so, I would need name, age and contact info (e-mail is fine) and you can e-mail them to me at: lexilizz@yahoo.com. Glad to hear it's working for you!

Hello everyone! I have been reading here for a while but finally got around to registering. I just wanted to say that I bought some of the Powerslim hoodia through the link on this site, and started taking it on Monday (5/12). I didn't notice much if any effect on Monday (took 1 400mg capsule in the morning and another in late afternoon). Tuesday I upped it to 800 mg AM and PM and did begin noticing that my appretite was significantly reduced. Today is Friday (5/16) and I can safely say that the hoodia has continued to blunt my appetite. I have been eating and drinking "by the clock" since otherwise I do find myself not eating until my stomach is growling and a hunger headache starts to set in.

So, I would say that for me, the hoodia really is effective. I would recommend that if you try it, do pay attention and be sure that you are eating and drinking enough.

Also, I am not selling anything--just really appreciate this website and wanted to thank Peter and the others for making this resource available and encourage others who want to try hoodia to buy it through the link here and help Peter get a little financial support! I have learned a lot from reading here, especially about the importance of getting enough calories, and am finally seeing some success in weight loss.

Current time is 07:30 am
