It's not healthy to lose 7lbs in one week. The best way to lose weight is at a rate of 1-2lbs per week. Half a stone in one week is absolutely not good.

I am a University professor with knowledge of what you are asking about.

The only diet pills that worked well were simple amphetamines. They were used all over in the 1960s (I'm old), they worked great, but they were highly addictive and abused.

There are a few things on the market right now as the others cited, but that product just blocks fat absorption in the g.i. tract. You might lose ten pounds in a year but the side effects are not worth it. Some people who cannot give up all fat sometimes have to wear a diaper due to leakage. You need to read up on the side-effects.

The only extra push you need is exercise, and at your age it won't take much. Also, count your calories. A soda like a Coke is 150 calories and fast food is even worse. Some people have to write down the stuff they eat and drink each day before they can believe how many calories they actually take in and in what form.

Remember, we gain weight with 200 extra calories per day, but we want to lose it all in less than a week.

ArmyMedic agony auntIt works, but then so does bulimia.

It's dodgy! anything that gives you spontaneous diarrhoea, will make you lose weight, but it will also effect you chemical balance, and dehydrate you. Which in the long run can cause fainting, cardiac arrhythmias (funny heart beat) and death!

I would speak to your GP, and not buy anything over the counter or from the internet!

Olivia(Y). agony auntMost diet pills are very dangerous.

Speak to your doctor about it and he will either prescribe some or give you a healthy diet plan.
