Perrie, I'd love to read the article or watch the video but the link goes to a video about Paterno and Sandusky. Doubt that's whatyou had in mind. :-)

Interesting. I have never used weight loss drugs but there was one around 1997-1998 that was all the rage. It was later determined that the drug caused heart issues and was taken off the market.Another weight loss drug caused liver damage. What's the difference between weight loss drugs and fat burners?

As much as I would love to gobble downa magic pill to burn fat (don't have alot, just area that troubles me), I am hesitant to do so for reasons stated above.

The report said that when the monkeys quit taking the pill, the fat returned along with their old lazy habits.To their defense, their lazy habits are probably a result of living in an effing cage all their life. Grrr.

Many people are looking for a quick fix in weight loss when it's a total change in lifestyle that's needed, includinga good exerciseregime and a healthydiet. A girl I knew started taking a weight loss pill 2 months before her wedding so she would look good. That's great but what about the long term?

I think I'd rather have lipo andsurgery - it's more permanent.

LOL... I guess we are really off topic. But now we can tell Paterno how to loose 10 ugly lbs. See there is an upside.

Actually, lipo surgery and this work in the same way, but lipo has a problem. Let me explain.

Fat cells are the only cell in the body that can grow...withoutlimitation. When a person gets lipo, they get it from specific trouble spots. But the body has fat everywhere. So if a person doesn't change eating habits, then they gain fat in places where the was no fat before. It makes for some strange bulges.

This drug cuts off the blood supply to fat cells all over the body. This causes the fat to die all over the body. This is the same basic idea that a lot ofchemotherapiesuse to kill tumors.

The other drugs you were talking about like Fen Fen, were amphetamines. The raise themetabolicrate in the body. This caused the heart damage thatoccurredin many people that took the drug.

I agree that there are many people who are looking for a quick fix and it is always best to loose weight the old fashion way and I can see some abuses of this drug, like people taking too much of the drug or staying on it too long, but for some, this might be a life saver.

How does the body rid itself of the dead fat cells?

There are cells who clean dead cells by eating them calledmacrophages. Cool ha?
