According to the FDA? Really? Pharmaceutical diet pills are amphetamines. Speed. Drinking water will have the same effect with no damage or false expectations.

So I'm not really sure why you're arguing with me since every post of mine that you've quoted actually agrees with your opinion. The only explanation I can see is that you're trying to draw some fine distinction here.
Argue? Disagree, discuss. I've only quoted portions of your posts that I'm addressing. I comprehend quite well what you're saying. I'm just not with your logic.

The fact that I called them a crock seemed to offend you. I'm merely making the same point that others have made above this post that some don't put have much faith in the FDA or any quick weight loss methods which can often, in fact, be quite harmful, prescribed or not.

Been there, done that, starred in the movie and dozens of sequels and remakes, along with thousands of others and millions of extras.
