Move Over Ozempic
"I just started taking these and can honestly say they are an appetite suppressant. I need to lose 20lbs to rule the world and be a L.A. 8, which is a 10 everyone else in America. It’s taking forever for me to lose weight because I’m always hungry, even though I increased my fiber intake and seen a nutritionist. My experience is so annoying but so common among most people. If this sounds like you keep reading. ⬇️
I seen the current celebrity Ozempic trend, (Remember: I’m an Angeleno, so it’s huge over here and everyone is dropping weight rapidly), Googled what was in it and these bad boys appeared, so I bought them. I take two on an empty stomach, which keeps me full all day.
Here’s how these really aid with weight loss: when you eat, you get fuller faster and hardly have an appetite.
I have a very sensitive nervous system, so I was worried I’d get jittery with them, but that has not been the case. I did get a headache, but that was a hunger headache because I’m never hungry, so that’s when I have to force myself to eat.
If you’re like me and need/want to lose weight and are looking for something that will help suppress your appetite, try these. You’ll immediately notice the difference in your food intake.
You’re welcome.
Now let me be great in the land of beautiful people. ????????♀️☀️????????"
5 stars for the price alone... quality and efficacy not yet discernible
"Have had great success with CLA in the past, but cost is normally prohibitive and results depend on long-term use.
14 years ago, I was managing a famous chain retail "nutrition" store, and being a freshly graduated college student with my handy-dandy Bachelor's in complementary medicine in hand, I dedicated countless hours to studying and learning about any supplements in that store that I wasn't already familiar with. This paid off for me, in many ways: I became the go-to girl for other managers in the region, getting calls all the time for off-the-wall requests or in-depth information requests that customers at other stores had presented them with; eventually, my store gained a reputation for being the store to go to where you would NOT get pressured to buy something you didn't want, nor would you get false or misleading information about any product; The chain of command noticed, and I received raises and promotions faster than any other manager anyone had heard about - and the extra responsibilities that go along with raises; and most important for long term gain, I learned a LOT about what works and what doesn't when it comes to weight (loss or gain). At that time, I was so impressed with the research just coming to light about this fatty acid pretty much absent from modern American diets, and posited as the main reason obesity rates have risen so drastically since the Industrial Revolution and the beginning of the modern era. The more I read, the more I was eager to try it for myself - I had given up ever being thin again, I had tried just about everything under the sun (from unassisted starvation to prescriptions that should have never been FDA approved to fad diets to anything else anyone ever swore worked) all to no avail... I couldn't (and still can't) even lose a single pound even with horrible stomach flus that last a week... My body likes this weight for some reason and is more stubborn than even my mind.
But I tried CLA, and reading scientific reports regarding the absolute lack of results, regardless of dosage or any other variable, until after at least 6 weeks of daily supplementation, I knew that this EFA, if it did indeed ever work, was going to cost me a pretty penny before I even had a chance of finding out. But I committed, and to my delight, after 6 weeks of diligently taking the dosage most commonly recommended for my weight and seeing no difference, between week 6 and week 5 I lost an entire pants size, seemingly overnight.
As fate would have it, just after week 7 I severed the AC ligament in my knee, and was misdiagnosed and therefore given the wrong treatment (bed-rest) for that injury. After spending everything I had saved on a TCM (traditional Chinese Medicine) doctor, and not being able to work for an extended period of time, I had to discontinue the CLA once the bottle I had ran out. I always knew I would try again when I could afford it, but life has a funny way of laughing at you when you say "when I can afford it".
So, it's been 13 years, of always having that hope in the back of my mind that when I could afford it, CLA might actually work again for me, and for longer if the stars aligned just right and the wind blew from the right direction...
I saw this brand while looking for something else, and saw the price for so many, and decided that if it meant ramen for a week or 2 a month, then so be it, I would sacrifice to get these.
Have just been taking them for 2 days, so will have to edit this review once I get to the 6 week mark and beyond, but wanted to share an observation that may be typical of this brand, or may be just a one-time thing with the batch I got... The gel-caps are stiff and dry. I have never used any product in a gel-cap where they had this texture. It makes them just slightly more difficult to get down - have to leave them in mouth with fluid for about 10 seconds to lubricate them before being able to get them down, and this isn't usual for me.
Hopefully that small issue with the texture (quality? thickness?) of the gel-caps used is not an indication of the efficacy of the oil inside, as the price is simply unbeatable, especially for a product I already sure will be repurchased."
