I’ve tried taking slimming pills before and, although I was lucky and didn’t suffer any bad side-effects, I didn’t find them very effective either. I lost a stone in a month, but when I stopped taking them the weight went back on again. I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone – it’s miserable, but exercising and eating less will work better.

I totally sympathise with anyone who wants to lose weight, as I know what a battle it can be, but there has to be a point where you draw the line. And I think slimming pills cross that line. It is never worth putting your health in danger just to achieve the perfect body.
