You are right. Diet and exercise is the way to lose weight. Hoodia should only be seen as an aid to dieting.
I lost about 10 lbs using hoodia to reduce my hunger feeling. I always had a problem with that when it came to exercise. Somehow the hoodia made me forget about snacking and craving especially for my desserts.
I got mine from http://hoodia4weightloss.info/

About half the ladies I know seem to have tried it in the past few months, and none of them seemed to think it was that great. Since it falls into the category of herbal diet supplement, it sort of falls under the radar of the regulating agencies- at least the FDA doesn't regulate it. That's where most of the problem probably lies, truthfully. Since it's a plant, there's really no way to promise that the amount of active ingredient is the same from bottle to bottle or even pill to pill. Some plants might contain more, some less. And worse yet, some of the companies will sell hoodia that isn't really truly hoodia, and you have no way to be sure either. I did some research out of curiosity, and from what I can find, the scientific and medical communities haven't found much to support it one way or the other. What I did discover is that although they can't say it works, they can't find any problems associated with side effects either. Unfortunately though, it's not been on the markets long enough for there to be any real long term studies available either. I'm like you, I wish there were something that would help with the hunger pangs and cravings in between. But I decided that I'd just stay the course with my rice cakes and veggie sticks. Although the hoodia was tempting, I couldn't see it was the miracle everyone thought or claimed it would be. And at least I get fiber from my current fillers, and they are a lot cheaper. Plus I don't have to worry about what ever else the maker might be sticking in them.

Hey Liz, im Riz lol anyways...
I am a body builder and i do need to lose some fat once in a while so the abs show up ;) so i know what you are saying about the pills, you just need that small help.
I use: Thermo-Lean i believe it is #1 of losing fat, without messing around with my muscle mass
Don't buy from the internet if you don't feel it. Do what i do go to a health store or GMC or whatever that sells protiens creatiens and so on and ask for it.
Try it out, let me know how it works

I've recently started using HoodiThin and it's really working for me. I don't feel jittery and my hunger has went way down. It's in liquid form and you can put it in water or juice. I use water myself cuz it's tasteless, although it does kinda stink. I drink mine 3 x's a day about half an hour before I actually eat. It's kinda on the expensive side at $59.95 for a bottle that lasts about a month, but to me it's worth it cuz I can't do it on willpower alone. Hope this helps and good luck to you!
