Hoodia is meant to be sucked on. Power Pops so far are one of the best forms of it. I also read an article, I don't know where I found it, that listed 4 of the pills that worked.

Best of luck,

Debbie

Power Pops? I have never heard of them, although it does sound interesting! You have tried them?

I've seen powerpops on the net somewhere before. But i think getting it from my country will be difficult.


there's lots of hoodia brands. and each time it's being compared, it's different from the previous comparison chart. plus, i heard some are even fake charts. yikes.

I do use them. They work for most people, though a few have said they don't feel a difference. I like them.

Here is the website: http://www.power-pops.com/smile/powerpop.htm (Is it OK to post a URL?)

They have other products, I like the Bee Tabs best, but use the Power Pops to help me with snacking.

Extra recently did a story on them, and NBC and a few magazines.

Not sure if it's a fad or not, but I'm enjoying them.

Debbie

Power Pops

I have been using the Power Pops as a desert with my meals, and also for in-between meal snacks. I also take a Hoodia capsule that I purchased from GNC. Now.. I don't know if it is my imagination or not.. I'm not completely sure. All I know is that I am truly not hungry. Truly. i am not FULL, but I do not sense hunger. It might be also that I am eating 1200 calories a day, but dividing them up into 4 meals/snacks. And LOTS of water.
Whatever.. whatever.. I know that it is working for me. I am not hungry. The pops are good tasting, and having one with a couple glasses of water helps me completely. I don't miss pie, or cookies.. I just grab a pop.
I have lost 20 pounds so far, from 220 to 200. I am going to continue using the Hoodia capsules and the pops. For me, they work. I am aiming to lose more weight, to get down to 160.

Best to EVERYONE on this site. I haven't been on it for a few weeks.

Respectfully,
Steve

Awesome!

Thanks for the great testimonial! These things are awesome. I've been giving out samples, and I get a ton of orders from people who are soo excited.

Did you see Power Pops were featured on Extra Saturday?

I'm just not sold, even on natural appetite suppresants. I get huge cravings for my favorite foods. I get hungry a few times a day. I MUST learn to deal with these cravings.

A combination of moderation and willpower seems to have worked thus far. I've only been dieting for 5 weeks, but I feel like I'm on my way to an overall healthier way of eating. I think I'd rather fall down on my diet and get back up a few times, reinforcing my ability to make smarter choices, than mask my cravings for food.

I have lost weight a handful of times, and didn't learn a damn thing each time I did it. I'm not ragging on hoodia or blow pops or whatever else is a diet aid. It's just something to think about.

i have read that true hoodia is very expensive. i am not sure if it is that effective for the money spent.

I remember there being some discussion somewhere (media?) that the hoodia in many diet products varies and that we have no way of knowing what the quality or effectiveness of it is. That was a big turn off in general for me.

The only thing I found helpful was 1 pill of xenadrine in the morning before workouts when it had ephedrine. I did a doctor prescribed diet pill a few decades ago that helped kill my appetite, but caused serious depression. I also worked out daily for at least an hour, so I'm not sure it was all the pill. I sort of wish they'd bring back xenadrine with a much lower dose of ephedrine that would be safe but helpful.

Q re Hoodia Root/Stem

Hello!

I read on 1 of the forums here from a gal who works at GNC & she said the ONLY Hoodia that works is root/stem (are THEY the same thing?)

Ok, heres the link to the forums page: http://weight-loss.fitness.com/diet/...mine_2719.html

I bought the cheap-stuff & am going back for my $ back! Even doubling/tripling the dose did nothing whatsoever! So I'm DEF looking for advice regarding this.

Anyone?
Btw, my "herbal" friend said that any herb you use, you get the very best from the roots!

Hope to hear back from y'all!

SusyQ122

I'm hesitant to use a pill as well. While it seems convenient, at this stage in my diet I'm OK to only eat 1200-1500 calories a day - I just need to choose my food wisely. I'm afraid that if I try pills that I'll have to be on them forever or immediately regain the weight when I go off of them because I hadn't changed my habits.
