Just make sure that you are getting the right and the pure one's that does not have any fillers. I have tried raspberry ketone after my appendectomy and there is no negative side effects.

• No----no no no. Do NOT take such a supplement after GB surgery!! Take ONLY what your doctor approves: your biotin, your vitamins. Taking supplements after GB surgery is VERY tricky--and you can do some serious harm.You maintain your weight loss by eating LESS--you don't maintain it by taking supplements. I'm dead serious--you can harm your stomach and bowel. And remember, about 25% of GB patients will gain back some weight after it stabilizes--but don't let this alarm you. Presumably you went through all the counseling and you learned how to modify your behavior to eat ONLY when you're supposed to--and not eat a lot of things that will pile those pounds back on--you cannot eat like you used to. Ever again. You have to eat very balanced meals and small portions. If you are having a problem maintaining your weight now, investigate Jenny Craig--they have re-done all their pricing--they are no longer as expensive as they used to be, and their meals are well-balanced AND portion controlled. If you follow the program, any weight you re-gained after GB will go away again and you'll get into the habit of eating correctly. You have to also understand this: now that you only have a little "pouch" instead of a whole stomach, supplements don't work the way they used to--no medications do. You have to be very strict about what you take and how. And absolutely NO weight loss supplements or drugs. NONE. This is extremely important. All your food and your supplements are now digested in your SMALL INTESTINE--not in your stomach. They don't dissolve until they reach the small bowel--this can cause perforations, ulcers, inflammation and other problems. AND--they don't dissolve as completely as they used to either--when things like this stay in your gut, they can become very problematic.
• It is always recommend that you consult with your doctor before the use of any new supplement.

What are the best food supplements, that will help me building muscles, while being on a low calorie diet?

I am 6'2" and i am 230lbs with big muscles but i have some fat in belly, so i have decided one month ago to start a low calorie diet of 1600 includes 3 meals and 1 snack and 2 protein scoops with skimmed milk. (2 scoop with skimmed milk and water, 320 calories ) and another 1300 calories from the meals and the snack, i am eating very healthy, at least 70g if protein( fish, lean meat, chicken, eggs, dairy products) other than the scoop, i eat a lot of green vegetables i.e spinach and lettuce as well as carrots, bananas, apples, Tomatoes and cucumbers everyday, skimmed milk and yoghurt, whole grain cereal( special K), whole grain oatmeal, and whole grain bread and Almonds. I drink a lot of water. I take creatine pure 5gs in gym days and 2.5 non-gym days. And lipo 6 fat burner. I take b-complex vitamin supplement everyday. I workout hard at the gym 4-5 days/week 2 hours weight lifting, but i rest about 1 min between sets, and about 25mins intense cardio. And 2 days a week 1 hour cardio so 6 days a week i do cardio-4 25mins and 2 1 hour. But i dont seem to lose the weight that ive been promised to. And my waist is the same size.. So is there any supplement that i can add to what i take? Or is there something i can do to lose weight more effectivly??? Perhaps a change in my routine. Note- everybody keeps telling me that i should eat consume about 2000 cal or more. But i can't control my apetie when i do that. So i wanna stick to the 1600cals. Anyone can help? Thanks in advance

How to Be Lazy and Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:

Most supplements have not proven to be have a positive effect for those eating a balanced diet, and in many studies, the results have shown negative side effects. If you are deficient in a vitamin such as B12, perhaps a vitamin supplement would be of some benefit, but in most cases, the best source of nutrition is a whole plant based food.You will never build strong muscles if you overexercise the same muscle group without allowing your body recovery days. Make sure to review your program with a coach experienced in weight training or get a good book on free weights and follow those recommendations. Especially pay attention to the scheduling of workouts.The standard recommendations of dairy, whey protein, and protein foods is inaccurate. They lead to weight gain and other undesirable problems. Excess animal proteins are flushed out of your system at great expense to your kidneys. Kidney damage occurs before blood tests are able to detect this problem. My recommendation is for you to follow the dietary recommendations of T. Colin Campbell on his web site. He even shows professional athletes who do not consume animal protein at all. A Whole Food, Plant Based (WFPB) diet is consumed by the top marathon runners in the world, and also populations with exceptional health and life expectancies. Other nutrition researchers who endorse the WFPB way of eating include Joel Fuhrman, Neal Barnard, Dean Ornish, Caldwell Esselstyn, and hundreds of other researchers.There is no need to count calories. If you stick with WFPB diet, you can eat large portions and lose body fat. See.the Dean Ornish book "Eat More, Weigh Less." Make sure to eliminate dairy and begin consuming dark leafy greens such as kale, chard, collard greens. These are rich in calcium, iron, and protein. A combination of whole grains (brown rice, quinoa) and legumes (peas, beans, lentils) complete the amino acid requirements to build proteins necessary for strong muscles.It's almost impossible for some people to eat a Standard American Diet (SAD) and lose fat weight. Many of us can easily become addicted to excess salt, oil, fat, caffeine, sugar, flavor enhancers (MSG, aspartame), and other food additives.

How to Lose Weight Quickly

Recommended Answer:

Yes! I have had this happen to me. I gained weight when I quit smoking, and was trying so hard to eat right, and exercise. My boyfriend would bring home my favorite ice cream in this big bucket and just leave it in the freezer. He would also bring home fried foods, (fried chicken, French fries, etc.) which I was trying to stay away from. I finally sat him down, and explained that I felt like he was trying to keep me overweight. You know what he said? "If you get skinny, other guys will find you attractive".Really??? So what? That doesn't mean I would leave my boyfriend for some other guy! We stayed together for a while, and he stopped bringing home the fattening foods. I kept to my diet, and kept with it, despite whatever comments he made. After losing 5 pounds, we went our separate ways. Now I'm down from 171 pounds to 136 pounds. When he sees me now, his eyes bug out and he can't stop staring! My advice? Stay true to yourself, and try not to let other get in the way of what YOU want. YOU can do it!!!Good luck!
