I worry about people who are obsessed with finding the best diet pills to help them lose weight. Is there any such thing? I know there are different types of diet pills. You can get the ones from your local health food store and you can get prescription diet pills. I don't know of too many people who had problems with the health food store diet pills other than the fact that many of them are hype and just don't work very well or cost a fortune, but I do know lots of people who had problems with prescription diet pills. The side effects are usually as long as your arm. That's not the only problem though. All of the people I  know who have taken prescription diet pills regained the weight once they gave the pills up. Losing the weight was the easy part. Regaining the weight was devastating to their self-esteem. I'm not saying I have the answer, because I don't, but I'm sure that good food choices and exercise is going to take you a long way toward a better body weight and save you the cost both physically and emotionally of diet pills.
