Instant Weight Loss

Want Lose Weight Without Dieting
*****************************
How I went from 224 lbs to 128 lbs with NO DIETS OR EXERCISE *******************************

Geez, don't you just love getting emails with those subject titles EVERYDAY?? People lately have been sending me IM's every week with some dumb link to acai berry sites. (I have now had to set the messenger service to ignore anyone not on my buddy list)
I don't care what Oprah, Rachel Ray or Dr. Oz says....
no pill (including acai) will make my weight disappear without a diet or without exercise. If it really worked, then we all could sit here with a case of donuts at our feet and a gallon of strawberry milkshake in 1 hand while popping a dumb diet pill with the other hand and have it preform its weightloss magic. Sorry but anyone who believes all the weightloss gimmick ads must also believe in the Easter bunny and all the fairytales that end with "happily ever after" too.
Oh and please make sure to read all the small print if you ever decide to "try-out" some products "free trial" because it might not end up being free.

*Most products that claim to "rev up your metabolism" or "burn fat" contain stimulants. Many plants contain stimulants, and you will get the same effect from "natural" or herbal weight loss products that you get from drinking huge amounts of coffee or tea. Supposedly Stimulants cause you to burn more calories and you will lose weight at first, but you need to take more and more as the days go by, and they can cause unpleasant, even dangerous side effects.

The only ways to lose weight (without surgery or prescription medications) are:
1) Take in fewer calories,
2) Burn more calories, or
3) Both.

I didn't really gain all this weight overnight, so why should I think I can lose it all overnight?
