I have just started taking diet pills.
Surprisingly they seem to be working. I could lose weight if I actually stopped drinking.

And no they're not amphetamine based.

Ahh of course not, they're probably made of magic beans and unicorn tears.

I don't care what they're made off. They're working and they're not too expensive.

What are you taking?
I deal in quack remedies.

They have some sort of Brazilian plant in them that tempers appetite.
Also green tea and caffeine. I really wasn't expecting them to be any good but they seem to be doing the trick. Like I said, if I could give up boozing then I'd be quids in.

You haven't signed up for a reduced cost trial where you only pay the postage have you?

As I often say to the people I advise: If it works for you...
Now just give me the long number from the front of your card.

I know. I do realise there is a lot of quackery out there and I was just clutching at straws really when I bought them.
Still, like I said, they seem to be doing what it says on the tin.

There's a lot to be said for the placebo effect.
I'm sure you're not stupid enough to think that you can take a magic pill and carry on as usual. Hopefully they will motivate you to continue on a path of burning more than you consume. Stick with it.

Hell no! I use it as part of a healthy eating regime.
And the gym obviously.
