Diet Pills

I am fairly wary about the way in which I approach blogging about diets and supplements, as I am concious of some of the diet pill side effects.
My own personal view is that medication should only be used as an extreme measure where short-term effects fit into a longer-term plan. the longer term plan must incorporate sensible eating (healthy food in manageable quantities) and exercise appropriate to the individual. The exercise should gradually increase until the required level of fitness is reached.

The reason that medication cannot form part of a long-term plan is two-fold:

• Firstly, the cost of long-term medication will be prohibitive
• Secondly, the likelihood and extent of side effects increases with each dose.

Medication or even surgery may be able to help in some small way, but in the end, long term weight loss it is all about desire and self-control.
