Lately I have heard people around my gym talk about this new drug that is supposed to make you lose weight fast. I am pretty skeptical when it comes to “fat burning” pills because to me all of them are waste of money, but for own interest I did some research about this pill.
Lorcaserin acts as an anorectic, which means it maintains you without an appetite. This pill was banned when it first time was introduced in 2009 to the FDA because it concerned the health and safety. But in 2012 unfortunately the FDA approved it based on new studies.
I have read some reviews from people and many claim that they have lost weight the first 3 weeks but that mostly happens for two reasons. First reason is that these people that lose many pounds are usually extremely overweight and it is normal to lose many pounds during the first weeks but if not a proper diet and exercise applies then these people will gain that weight pretty fast. The second reason is that these “fat burner” pills get rid of a lot of water from our body. Imagine that over 60% of our weight is water, so is it good to get rid of it? Most people think that they lose pounds of fat which they don’t.
My advice would be stay away from the pills just eat, sleep and workout right and you will be amazing.
