Does this sound safe to do? - Weight Loss Message Board

I was out walking tonight and one of the mom's in the group was talking about how she is dieting.

One week she is on slimfast, second week, she uses green tea diet pills, 3rd week she is now starting zantrex,4th week she does low carb and something like the 3 day diet that's been posted on here, but sounded like nothing I have heard on here.

It just doesnt sound healthy to me, but I am new at this, she has lost like 80pds they say I just met her.

Just thought I would ask.
Thanks
Dee

Personally, I think that is pretty drastic and VERY hard on your body. I would pick just one and give it a try.

Hi,

As far as healthy, it's probably not healthy. But heck, carrying around that extra 80 lbs wasn't healthy either...

I think success is not measured by how much you lose or how you lose it. It's measured by if you can keep it off forever and still remain healthy.

One of my favorite dieting lines is--Weightloss is only part of the journey, you have to move there permanently.

Thanks for answering me.It has bugged me all night.
I think it would be hard on a body too, but hey it works for her I guess.I dont think my body would know which way to go if I did that.She isnt on zantrex its metabo ultra something, something like that.I am just in Awww at all that.
Good Morning All

Southern Mom - Please find out if your new friend that has lost the 80 pounds is taking the Metabo Ultra Max that we've been wondering about that Dipsy is taking . . Something that your new friend is doing is working since she's lost 80 pounds!!! Altering between programs would make me a little nervous, but hey, its working for her so tell her to GO GIRL! But, please find out if its this Metabo Ultra that she is alternating. Sure would like to hear that it is.
Thanks!
