Cortislim for Weight Loss?

[Mori]

Has anyone tried Cortislim for losing weight? If the answer is yes did it really work? I keep reading about it's promise to help weight loss by controlling stress levels which promote "belly fat" being stored & am wondering if I should give it a try. :confused:

Mori,
Personally, I would not buy a pill that claims that it has the magic formula for weight loss. The best way to lose weight is thru diet modification and exercise. It may take some time, but it is usually the best way. Pills, powders, etc usually don't have long lasting results and may contain ingredients that may not be good for you. Talk with your doctor about a good diet and exercise regime.

I haven't tried it. I'm kind of weary of pills these days. I've had sucess with some but as soon as I stopped I gained the weight back. I lost 40 pounds with Slim Fast and kept it off for a year until I had surgery. Now I'm just watching what I eat and exercising. Have you heard of Sprinkle Thin? It's like salt but tasteless. It's supposed to suppress your appetite.

I haven't tried cortislim myself, but the nurse at the pharmacy that I go to for my hormones told me that it does help your cortisol levels...which mine was elevated. Actually, there is a little herb in it that help cortisol levels. Not sure which herb it is tho. I bought the book that talks about weight lose and cortisol and basically it tells you to work out, eat healthy and reduce your stress or do things to help ease stress. All our our lives are so stressful, it would be hard to reduce it sometimes.
just a thot......

I tried Cortislim, but here's the thing, these things all seem to rely on caffine or a derivative, and I am highly sensitive to this type of stimulant, I was always edgy and ready to jump out of my skin. It increased my stress levels. I should have known better there is no magic pill, It amounts to exercise (helps the stress level) and changing the way you eat.
Do you still have sugar in your diet? I have read that that contributes to the "belly fat", and should be less of a problme once you stop that. Not sure if it's true, I have a bit of a sugar problem LOL:p

I have often wondered about this OTC diet aide myself. I know that 99% of the time these things don't work and most aren't good for you but I guess the older I get I want a quick cure just like everyone else. lol

I bought the thyrin-atc thinking that would help me but I can honestly say it hasn't helped one bit.

I guess just good ole fashioned exericise will have to come into play. Question is when do I have time for that?!

From my anatomy course I took last semester, it's a gimmick. :) Belly fat though is bad fat (I know, as opposed to good fat) as it squishes your organs in your ab area. The only thing that can help with this is to do cardio and cut down on your fat intake. I did find an article on WebMD that talks about it. It's a great article!
